Berlin, Feb. 15.-The government will

The German governments proposal
to give the United States this favored

probably a year, so as to afford time
to conclude more permanent arrange

The position o. the German govern

cause both industrial and agricultural
interests have been pouring in memori-
ais and petitions to the chancellor and
other ministers urging the government
to stand firm and not hand over to the
United States for nothing or next to

countries have given equal returns in

GAMBLERS FINED SIS.
Story in Circulation That Fraternity
May Reopen Houses.

For some time a report has been cur
rent that the gambling houses of Ogden
would open up within a short time, and
that, although arrests would be made
only light fines would be imposed. In
a measure these reports were corrOborated
in the municipal court yesterday morn
ing when six men arrested in the Ele-
by Chief of Police T. Z. Browning, Cap
tain G. Q. Brown and Sergeant Fred
Tout, were fined 50 each after the court
had decided that they were guilty Of
violating the city ordinance governing
gambling.
II was thought that If a conviction
would impose as severe a fine as was
within its power, and the naming of a
s. fine by Judge J.. D. Murphy was a
disappointment to those who favor the
enforcement Of the gambling ordinance
and desire to see the gambling element
driven out of Ogden.

Discuss New School Buildings.

The buildings and grounds committee
of the county board of education held a
meeting yesterday and discussed the
question of constructing new buildings in
the various districts of the county. The
proposition to bond the county and make
the necessary improvements in all the
districts at once did not meet with the
approval Of the committee, and 1t IS
likely that they will decide to build only
the two buildings at Plain City and
Hooper, where they are needed the most,
and pay for the same out of the regu-
lar taxes. The report Of the committee
will be made to the board of education
at an early date.

Whitaker enlisted in the navy in Oc-
tobsr, 1901, on the L. s. 5. Pensacola at
Goat island. Later he served on the
Concord and Bennington, also on the
tug PaWtucket at BTemertOn. He was
transferred from the Pawtucket to the
Boston. which he left at San Francis
co about Nov. %, 1905, while being
forced To make a second trip down to
Panama. which, his friends say, is
something that naval physicians advise
against.
Whitaker was permitted TO leave the
ship on regular liberty with a number
of other enlisted men, and while they
were on shore the Boston received sail
ing orders Following the regulations
as laid down for such cases the men
then reported to the Pensacola at Goat
island. Whitaker was cOurt-martialed
and found guilty of being a straggleT

Richards Scores Chambers
Mr. Richards occupied the rest of the
afternoon. He began by saying that from
the argument put I'D by the opposite
side the case appeared to be a very simple
one to him, but that he was endeayOring
to find a case where this statute would
apply but that he had been unsuccessful
He held that, according to the arguments
offered unless it could be cited that the
defendant had told several other parties
that he had put his hand into the public
treasury and took ont money, knowing
that he was doing wrong, he could not be
prosecuted. He said it was highly I'M
probable that a man could be elected to
the council without knowing what salary
was attached to the position, that the
law is that he must not only know, but
must do his duty. He held that If the
cCuncilmen were fixing the salaries &C
cOrding to the earning capacity Of each
man some of them might charge as much
as SO psr day, that If man found that
he could not sacrifice his time to serve
on the different boards or committees,
without extra compensation, it was his
place 10 resign office.
He insisted that it had been shown that
the defendant had not been appointed on
the board in 1905 and that if he served
on the board he had no lawful right to
do so and ii could not be considered as
service. He said that if the councilmen
of Ogden city did not know what their
duties were, they had better have the
city attorney give them q few night les
sons on the subject. He expressed sur
prise at attorneys for the defense in cit
ing other towns where the same cOndi-
tons existed and held that If the other
towns in the state did do this thing it was
Eo excuse why it should be permitted
here. In summing IL all up he said that

he did not he was negligent
