COME ENGINEERING FACTS.

Engineer George NJ. Bacon, under
whose direction the Big Cottonwood
conduit was planned. gives convincing
reasons why the changes proposed by
P. J. Moran, the contractor, and L. G.
Kelsey, city engineer, were not incor-
porated IN the original plans. In a dig
nified and dispassionate way, Mr.. Ba-
con cites his authorities for the belief
that plaster for the interior of the con-
duit is unnecessary, not to say a su-
perf1uous expense. His examples of
such construction as he designed ought
to settle the question on that point be-
yOnd controversy. If Boston can sup
ply its metropolitan population by
means of its concrete conduit, Salt
Lake certainly ought to be able to get
along without the extra finish Mr.. Mo-
ran suggests.
Again. as to the thickness OF the con-
duit walls, Mr.. Bacon offers practical
examples which need no comment. AS
he points out, the thickness of the
walls as originally designed is ample
and the inference is very plain, that in
MS judgment al duuiliUildl IllCh4SSS
is an unnecessary expense. Still fur
Their. considering the question of earth
covering for the conduit. where had
planned to carry it on piers, he shows
that competent engineers in this coUn-
try have carried much greater weights
under worse conditions than are in
vOlved in the conduit, and that the
original design is entirely adequate.
The taxpaying public viii await with
curious interest the excuses offered for
the addition of $4,000 TO the contract
price Of the conduit when the most
capable engineers in the country APP
prove of just such engineering practice
as was used in the original plans for
the work

HocH is HANGED.

Johann Hoch, wife-murderer. was
hanged in Chicago yesterday Every
thing that could possibly be done to
save Hoch was done, but at last he
paid the penalty. His execution should
serve as a warning to others Of Grim
inaI incIinations. The man, strangely
enough, won considerable sympathy
for himself, and from the very sex
that he had most mistreated- In spite
of the fact that he had been convicted
Of killing one woman, that he was
strongly suspected Of killing others
and that he was a confessed bigamist,
Hoch would have been hanged some
months ago if a woman had not in
tervened TO save him.
She furnished him funds with which
to take his case to the Illinois supreme
court, and other women have from time
to time manifested a friendly interest.
It is queer than a man cannot fall so
low. cannot become so depraved or so
saturated with crime that no woman
viii raise her hand or her voice for
him. The Hoch case formed an ugly
chapter in the criminal history of Chi
cago. 1t is we'll that it has been closed
once and for all.

The INSURANCE REPORT.

The lOng-expected report of the in
surance investigation committee Of the
New York legislature has been com
pleted and submitted. Much of the
matter in the report has already been
given to the public in accurate fore
casts. but the document is interesting
and viii doubtless attract a great deal
of attention. The chief interest will be
in the committees recommendations
for insurance legislation because, if
the laws adopted are sound and safe,
other states viii desire TO apply them
to their own conditions.
The committee suggests that the
rights of policy-holders in mutual
companies be protected in the election
Of directors, that new business be lin
tied to $50, 100000 a year, that contri-
buttons to political parties be prohib-
tied, that rebates be stopped and that
stock companies be given authority to
retire their stock and become mutual
organizations. These are the main rec
concentrations. The others have to do
with the forms of policies, surrender
values, publicity and Ike points.
Discussing the attempted control of
legislation by the insurance companies
the committee says:
They Cthe companies) have been or
ganlzed into an offensive defensive al
lance to procure or to prevent the
passage Of laws affecting not only in
surance, but a great variety of impor-
tant interests to which, through subsi-
diary companies, or thOrugh the con-
tributions of their officers they have
become related. Their operations have
extended beyond the state and the
country has been divided into districts
so that each company might perform
conveniently its share of the work.
Enormous sums have been expended
in a surreptitious manner. Irregular
accounts have been kept to conceal the
payments for which proper vouchers
have not been required. This course
of conduct created a widespread con-
viction that a large portion of this
money has been dishonesty used"
Further along the committee answers
the argument of the companies that il
is necessary for them to maintain lob
bies in order to prevent inimical legis-
lation. It says that insurance corpora
lions can very readily check such leg
islation merely by informing their pol
fey-holders regarding it. The policy
holders can be depended upon to do
the rest. That is quite true.
Suppose. for example. that unfriend-
~ insurance legislation should be at.

cTRIKE SEEMS SURE.

The outlook for an adjudication OF
the differences between the coal miners
and the operators without strike is
far from promising. In an interview
the other day John Mitchell, president
of the United Mine Workers of Amer
ica. said: LAS far as know now,
there will be a strike" This means
that unless the operators agree to raise
the wages Of the miners the latter will
walk out on April I.
If the expected happens, 100000 men
will quit work. If they >.verage only
81 a day each, and the average is said
to be more than 81 a day, they will lose
$500 900 a day in wages as long as the
strike is in progress. In addition the
helpers about the mines, the engineers.
the f1remen. all actively connected in
be deprived of employment. The aggre-
gate wage loss will certainly not be
far from 81, $685. 900 a day.
To this cost must be added the losses
Of the operators. These are more prob
lematical. If they have large stocks OF
coal on hand they will not lose much
at the beginning, and that little can
be Offset by the simple expedient Of
raising the price of coal and thus max
ing the public pay. But the stocks on
hand cannot last very long, for the
daily coal consumption amounts to a
vast total.
When the operators have no longer
any coal to sell they will begin feeling
the cost of the strike. Then they must
hire guards for their collieries and
must go to other expenses that are in
evitable in such a conflict. Reliable
estimates place the cost to the oper-
ators at not far from S750,000 a day. To
this must be added the losses that viii
be sustained by the merchants whose
business is largely with the miners
They will lose in the neighborhOod of
100000 a day.
Thus we have the total strike cost,
provided 800, 900 men go out, at a figure
somewhere around 50, 750, 900 a day. The
greatness of this aggregate is appalling.
| 1t is calculated to make those who are
about to become involved in the strug-
gle hesitate before burning their
| bridges behind them.

HIS FoReivINe DISPOSITION.
Everybody 50

An Ohio farmer had a hired man, a
steady phIegInatic worker, who was al
ways on time and had not missed day
in more than a year. One morning he
anDeared in his Sunday clothes and an
nounced that he had ito go bic his wife's
funeral" The following day he ap-
peared as usual and went about his work
in his careful, methodical manner Less
than a fortnight later he again came be-
fore his employer in his black suit and
asked for a day off.
Jake I hate to refuse you, but you
know we are pretty busy now Wouldn {
il do lust as well next week."
"Aber I denke NIGHT" said Jake; may
be I better be dere. 1t been my wedding

tempted in Utah, and by that we mean
legislation calculated to impair the
value Of insurance policies in the three
big companies. Is it not certain that
Utah policy-holders would rise at once
in indignant protest? Why. they
would come from every quarter of the
state. 1t would be found, too, that a
considerable percentage of the mem
bers of the legislature were insured in
the companies. It is absurd to talk Of
the necessity for maintaining Hobbies.
There is nothing in the report of the
committee to which any honest insur-
ance official need object. Most Of
them, we are sure, viii welcome legis-
lation along the lines indicated.

JOSEPH NAY ABDICATE.
Emperor Of Hungary Weary Of trouble.
some Reign.

Emperor Of Hungary Weary Of trouble.
some Reign.
Associated Press to The Evenine Times.
Paris, March 13-Leaders of the
Hungarion colony in Paris are of the
opinion that Emperor Francis Joseph
will abdicate the throne before long.
They express the belief that the final
struggle between Austria and Hungary
is at last about to break forth. and that
will be impossible longer to patch up
even a temporary settlement between
the two nations. The Hungarian
leaders have long had their plans pre-
pared for the crisis when 1t arrives,
and no time will be lost in forming a
provisional government and taking
over the control of Hungary.
1t is known that the venerable en-
peror was anxious to quit the throne
some four or five years ago, and only
reconsidered his decision at the earnest
entreaties Of his family and ministerE
If, however, the present situation is
rot by some compromise smoothed
over, Francis Joseph will quit his
throne and his country. Rumors have
been current this week that agents of
the Austrian emperor have recently
been visiting Paris with view to
obtaining suitable accommodation for
him should it become necessary for
him to carry his decision to resign
his crown into effect.
