TOOK M'cLELLAN'S PLACE.
John {, Mcdonald, the Horseman,
Killed in the Wreck.

London. July by the merest
chance Mayor George B. Mcclellan or
New York was not on the wrecked
American line special train. He had
an appointment to keep in London to-
day, and, although the steamer was
late in arriving at Plymouth, he decid-
ed to come direct TO London instead or
going to Cherbourg with Mrs. McClel-
Ian, who was booked through to Paris.
His hand-baggage had been transferred
10 the tender to land at Plymouth, and
he was going on board the tender when
an officer of the steamer whom Mrs. Nc
Clellan had been asking TO urge her
husband TO accompany her to Cher
bourg told the mayor he could still
reach London in time to keep his APP
pointment il he went on to Cherbourg
and thence to Southampton. Just be-
fore the tender left the ships side
Mayor Mcclellan changed his mind.
and the ships steward threw his bag
gage back on board the New York as
the tender was casting off her lines.
Mayor Mcclellan was greatly shocked
on learning at Southampton of the
wreck of the train.
John r. Mcdonald, the New York
horsemal. best known as Jack Nc
Donald. who is among the dead, was
given the compartment on the special
train which had been reserved for
Mayor Mcclellan. and so the mayor s
escape was indeed narrow.

a week and then will join his family in

made here. 1t costs about 80 per cent
more to build in Denver than it did
comparatively short time ago and there
is an understanding among the big
dealers who control prices. Though the
dealers had no formal organization
that could be construed into a trust,
there is nevertheless a cast iron trust.
There is a fair amount of building
going on in Salt Lake but there should
be much more" said Fred A Hale, ar
chitect. There is not single large
building in contemplation of erection
with any reasonable degree of surety.
Some small houses are being put up,
but / know of many who have post
poned the erection of homes on &C
count of the increased cost of building.
The contractors have TO figure very
close, but they are forced to do so by
the dealers. / can see no reason for
such prices"
1t is stated that there is not a single
firm outside of the trust and that
prices, high as they are have never
been so uniform. There is no possi-
bility of a cut on single variety from
any of them.
Contractors say that they have to fig
ure closer than ever before to make
any profit.

Transportation Not Higher.

There has been little or no increase
in the cost of bringing lumber to Salt
Lake City. There has been some Slight
charge in the minimums and measure
ments, but the cost of shipping lum-
Der here remains practically the same.
The rates are about 40 cents per 100
pounds or IS a ton from Portland and
so cents from East Oregon or Sc a ton.
These have not been changed during
the last three years.
1t is possible that the Real Estate
association will take some action in
the matter, as the present check in
building is having a depressing effect
on the realty business.

DR.. William ]. Patterson of Denver
Colo, who was an expert in criminology
and a university graduate, has been ar
rested for issuing fraudulent $40 check

Nearly all men who are convicted of
crimes are criminals by nature, and their

ference" Dr. Patterson had previously

For his service in the campaign
against the Boxers in 1900 he was made
a lieutenant general. In February,
1904 when the war with Japan broke

at Port Arthur, and soon afterward
was made commander of the entire
