THREE HUNDRED DOLLARS.

now travelling eastward from San Fran

mans who pass through Salt Lake are
given attention by the transportation
committee. There are a few of the refu-
gees in this city who are seeking employ
ment, and as fast as places can be found
for them they are put to work
The fact that the railroad companies
have stopped giving out free transporta-
ton at San Francisco, except in extreme
cases, has put a check on the exodus.
The citizens relief committee is now
working hard TO collect the money from
subscribers. An effort will be made to
collect all of the money this week, and
either supplies will be purchased with the
money or the money will be sent direct
TO the relief committee in the ruined city.
The executive committee will hold
meeting some time this week TO reach
definite conclusion as to the course that
shall be pursued.

Science school of the university has Of
fered prize of so for the man who
makes the best showing in the series of

DepeW's Vote.
Friends of SmOOt assert that the vote
against him by Depew is not a direct vote
by Depew himself but is being cast by the
chairman of the privileges and elections
committee by authority OF a general di-
1CCtiOn sent by Depew that his vote in all
committees should be cast by the chair
man of each. 1t is expected that a con-
clusiOn in the case will be reached at the
next meeting. Chairman Burrows states
that it his intention to get the case into
the senate as soon as possible. but the
prediction is made by other members of
the committee that final action will not
