eight companies of state troops on
guard in this city as a result of last
nights mob violence, IN which six
houses were burned in the colored re-
sidence district. more incendiary fires
were started early again tonight in
various parts OF the city. In every IN
stoEce the houses were occupied by
negroes or negroes and whites. A
negro house at Harrison and York
streets was stoned by a large crowd,
but the occupants are believed to have
escaped.

ed by negroes and which figured in
the Dixon mob and subsequent race

WILL Be PAPA
TO DOMINICA
Under Treaty as Reported Uncle
Sam VIII Supervise Adjust
ment of Claims.
WILL COLLECT REVENUES
RATIFICATION NOT LIKELY TO
BE HAD FOR SOME TIME.

Washington, Feb. 2s.-The treaty be-
tween the United States and the Do
nlinicen republic. under which the for
mer undertakes to collect and disbuTse
the customs revenues Of the latter, was
reported to the senate in executive ses-
sion by Senator Lodge.
A number Of very important amend
ments to the treaty were made by the
committee Article was entirely re-
written, and as reported as materially
shortened. It reads as follows:
THE United States, while this treaty
Is being executed, may take such steps
as it may deem proper to preserve or
der and facilitate the accomplishment
OF the purposes thereof"
For more than year this article has
been the subject of disputes In the
committee. Republicans and democrats
we're opposed to It, but on very differ
ent grounds. The latter, by caucus
action, left the republicans free to
agree on some amendment satisfactory
to the latter. Therefore in rewriting the
amendment the committee elimina ted
the authority given TO the Dominican
government to demand and receive as
sistance from this government. The
article now provides that the United
states may grant, Dy us OWAi -
such relief as ii desires.
Further amendment of this article is
contemplated, and may be drafted by
Senator Spooner. It is said 1t will fol-
low lines similar TO an amendment
proposed by Secretary Root, and Will
authorize the United States to land
troops for the protection Of Ameri-
cans engaged in the collection or GUS
toms.
There were added to the treaty two
new sections which are intended to
more definitely protect the United
States in all monetary dealings with
the creditors Of the Dominican repub-
lie.
Briefly, the treaty provides for the
adjustment Of the claims against the
Dominican republic under the supervi-
sion of the United States. This govern
ment is to take charge Of the customs
house and collect the revenues, pay 45
per cent to the Dominican republic and
withhold So per cent, the latter amount
to be used to liquidate the debts of the
republic.
While the treaty was given q place
on the senate executive calendar by
the report made today, 1t will not be
called up until after the railroad rate
bill has been disposed of, and even then
it may go over for some time. The
action of the democrats at their recent
caucus has made it very doubtful
whether the treaty could be ratified
this session. In order to keep the con-
vention alive, in the event Of ratifica-
ton failed, it had been suggested that
there might be motion to reconsider
the vote. If made, this would be for
the purpose of permitting the contin-
uance of the present modus vivendi.
under which the customs are being col
lected. Several other senators have
suggested that the same purpose might
be accomplished by not bringing the
treaty to a vote so long as there Is
doubt as to it's ratification

JOHN BULL CUTTING
DOWN NAVAL EXPENSE

London, Feb. 2s.-The new govern
ment, having little time in which to
frame a new naval budget, has practi-
cally adopted its predecessors esti-
mates, thus continuing the policy Of
economy already initiated and con-
si6ered justified by the altered circum-
stances resulting from the Russo
japanese war. In view of the destruc-
ton of the Russian sea power. the
Arelo-Japanese alliance and the An
glo-French entente, the government
considers it possible, without detract-
ing from efficiency, TO call halt In the
constantly increasing naval expendi-
ture. Lord CaWdOr last December
fCreshadowed a reduction of 81 500, 900,
and thus, with the reduction of s17,-
100000 effected last year, total of
$25,000,000 is knocked off the naval ex-
perditure in two years. The govern
ment gives no detail Of the new pro-
gramme, but fl is understood that the
projected four armored vessels will be
large battleships, presumably of the
Dreadnaught class. The naval
estimates for 1867 propose a net
total expenditure of S159 81. 5000 be-
ing 12,500,000 less than the estimates
for the present fiscal year

American" Leaders VIII Try to
Rush Bill for Extras"
Through Council.
FALSE STORY is EXPOSED
CITY MAY USE WATER FROM
CONDUIT FOR POWER.

The city council VIII meet in special
session tonight to pass finally on the
s7s, 900 conduit grab proposed by City
Engineer L. c. Kelsey and hungered
fer by Contractor Pat" Moran. It Is
not improbable that q caucus Of the
American party councilmen and
Mayor Thompson will be held this
afternoon to determine upon the
course of the american" party IN con-
peotion with the grab.
Councilman W. Mont Ferry, one of
the Americans" rated as an opponent
of the grab, has been forced to so east
on account Of the death Of Mrs. Ferry s
mother and thus one obstacle IN the
path Of the grabbers has been remov-
ed. T. r. Black. A. J. Davis and
other Moran councilmen Will make a
desperate effort to whip their collea-
cues into line for the complete Moran
Kelsey programme.
One Of the stories circulated by the
enemies of the past city administration
IS that the city, by the terms of the
franchise granted last year TO the
Utah Light & Railway company, bar
led itself from using the water of the
Big Cottonwood conduit for power pur-
poses. This story is disprOven by Sec
ton of the franchise which says
among other things:
In consideration of the premises
Salt Lake City agrees and ordains
that. during the life of such franchise
as herein fixed, IL will use the power
of said Cottonwood creek. or the
waters thereof. for power purposes
only, and in connection with munich
pal utilities and properties only"
Under this section, LAWYERS say, there
is not the slightest legal objection TO
the city establishing its own munich
pal light and power plant and using the
water from the conduit for such a pur-
pose.

sliding scale, which provides for from
A-25 to $40 per ton, according to- the
grade Of the beets. He was willing also
to continue business at the old rate of
$l-50 per ton. Mr.. Eccles gave the COM
mittee TO understand that this was the

committee will communicate with the
bee- growers at once with a view OF
learning their wishes.

When wu the Ena Come ?

The launching of Englands great
batileship. the Dreadnaught, has deepy
stirred the soul Of Rear-Edmiral Joseph
B, Coghlan, he Of "Hoch der Kaiser
fame. He desires this country to i'm
mediately follow suit by building battle
ships Of the DTeadnaught class. The
British war vessel, he holds. should il
realize half what is claimed for it, will put
England score OF years ahead OF any
other nation, while he admits that if we
should begin Immediately the construc-
ton Of a vessel OF this class, we should
not be able to complete il in time to be
up with England short Of four or five
years"
So, according to this doughty sea dog,
we are bound to be trailing along in the
rear Of Great Britain, if we attempt TO
follow Great Brtain's example. Now,
naval fighting appliances are changing
constantly, and ships Of war supposed
at the time Of their construction 10 be in
vincible as England's great Dreadnaught
will be, according to prediction, long
since relegated TO old junk VIII
perfection be reached in England's newest
destroyer, or will more terrible engines Of
destruction follow II the end has been
reached, then may all nations adopt the
latest design Of England, but if there are
to be further Improvements, may we not
wait with profit, particularly as we are
assured by Admiral Coghlan that we arc
bound TO be FIVE years behind England
even If we determine 10 construct another
Dreadnaught
Perhaps, in those Ave years, the eyes
Of the world may be turned in the direc-
ton Of peace, rather than Of war, and then
there would be even less necessity than
at present for warships and armed de
fences

THE MOUNT DAJo MASSACRE.

Editor Every Evening" / desire TO give
my earnest approval of the course pursued
by Every Evening in opposition TO our
war in the Philippines and the subiugation
of those brave people struggling for liberty.
From the first Every Evening has un-
falteungly protested against this war Of
sublugatiOn with its Accomplishments Of
RECOMMENDATION, water torture, and mur-
der of prisoners. Now, in the face Of
this Mount Daio horror, no more feeling
earnest protest has been printed than
Every Evening s Of March l4th. / wish
every true American citizen could read
Il. Just one short extract, so true: "What
a page OF history our operations in the
Philippines has written. II is the record
of a people who. after centuries Of re-
sistance TO oppression, welcomed us among
them rs deliverers from the yoke Of Spain
only TO find In us even more cruel and in
sistent oppressors than Spain had proved. 3"
II few more Of our influential journals
had thus, with true patriotism, advocated
liberty for the Filipinos as we gave il to
Cuba. il might have saved them from the
horrors of our subiugation and saved our
country from the waste of hundreds Of
millions of dollars, and the reputation Of
our Declaration OF Independence and
the great decentralization of our people.
Now. there is an easy way out Of this
Philippine trouble; an honorable, human
way, consistent with our professions of
liberty. United States Senator Crane and
Representative Mccall Of Massachusetts,
have introduced a resolution into Con-
gress to give freedom 20 the Filipinos and
protect them by making their territory
neutral, as Switzerland is, and has been
for many years. The committee on the
Philippines has arranged to give a hearing
20 the Massachusetts, Congressman. viii
not our people arouse and let our govern
ment know they are in favor of the
passage Of this bill Surely, no more
vital question is now before our country
both financially and morally.
