In a general way the testimony was a

LIFE PUT into
BOOM OF HUGHES
Republican Club of New York
Endorses the Governor for
Republican Nomination.
NINE VOTES IN NEGATIVE
COMMITTEE OF TWENTY-FIVE
TO BE APPOINTED.

New York. Dec. 23.-The Republican
club tonight endorsed Governor Hughes
as a candidate for the Republican presi-
dental nomination and called on Repub-
licans throughout the country to coop
crate in securing his nomination and elee-
ton.
There were more than 800 members of
the club present and all but nine voted
for the resolution. which was as follows:
Resolved That the Republican club of
the city of New York endorses Governor
Charles Evans Hughes as the Repub-
lican candidate for the presidency of the
United States of America in 1908. and in
Yites the cooperation of kindred organ
izatiOns and of the people generally
throughout the city, state and nation to
secure his nomination and election"
Nine Dissenters.
The meeting was an extra one called
to act on the endorsing of Governor
Hughes for president. The secretary said
there had never been SO large an attend
ance at club meeting. The meeting was
secret. After some debate the resolution
endorsing Governor Hughes was adopted
with only nine members voting against it.
The nine members who voted against the
resolution. it was stated. declared that
they were for Hughes. but thought Z
unwise to pass the resolution at the pres
ent time
Sub-Resolution Lost.
A sub-resolutiOn offered by J. o.
Hedges, commended Governor Hughes to
all Republicans for his worth, but Sug-
Sested THE wisdom of not sending
pledged delegates until an opportunity
shall have been offered for all candidates
mentioned in connection with the presi-
Dental nomination TO express their views
on Republican policies" The substitute
resolution was lost The original reso-
luton was then adopted with loud APP
plause.
President Young of the Republican
club. which is the representative Repub-
hcan club. in the city said he would go
slow in appointing the committee of
twenty-five to carry out the intent of
the resolution, as he intended that it
should be made up of those who would
prove most influential in promoting the
interests OF Governor Hughes. He hoped,
he said, to announce the committee soon.

the circuit court as a finality and took
no steps TO carry the case to a higher
court. but the Utah Consolidated filed a
petition to the supreme court of the
United States for a writ of certiorari,
asking that tribunal to exercise its dis
erection and order the record in the case
certified from me circuit court for re-
view. The attorneys for the petitioners
conceded that the case was not appeala-
bic, but that it could be reviewed by the
supreme court of the United States and
the decision of the lower courts modified,
oVerruied or affirmed. In support OF the
petition an elaborate brief was filed by
the attorneys for the Utah Consolidated.
Ihe\ petition was opposed by the attor-
neys for the farmers and they filed a
brief in support of their contentious
Case Now Ended.
: The petition was filed on Thursday of
last week and yesterday the supreme
court denied it. This ends this important
and famous case. No other steps can be
taken by the appealing party which will
prolong the litigation or change the re-
suit a mandate Will be sent down from
the circuit court of Salt Lake City with
in a few days and the injunction will
then be issued and the smelters com
PEELED to abide by the decision. This
means, of course, the closing down of the
three smelters affected by this decision.
After the decision of the circuit court
the Utah Consolidated smelter officials
began negotiations with the farmers look
ing to securing, by the payment of dam
ages and a bonus. the right to operate
until March. 1909 that it iwould have
time to build another smelter a meet
ing OF the farmers was held and il was
decided that if the smelter would with
draw its petition for writ of certis 4ari
and pay large bonus and all damages
sustained. that it might continue oper-
atoms until the date named. The com
mittee acting with the farmers submit
ted the proposition. which the smelter
rejected. a counter proposition WAS
made by the smeiter. but this was not
accepted by the eOmplainants Saturday
the committee submitted another prOpO-
sition. but so far as can be learned the
smelter has not yet accepted the propo-
sitiOn.
Negotiations will Be Closed.
At the meeting of the farmers Judge
King advised them that he did not think
there was any probability of the petition
for a writ of CertiOrdri being granted, but
that the supreme court had the power to
grant il and to review the entire case.
The possibility of the petition being
granted was one of the reasons which in
duced the farmers to consider the propO-
sition which contemplated the operation
of the Utah Consolidated smelter until
March. 1909. The fact~that the petition
has been denied and no agreement has
been made with the smelter probably
means that the negotiations viii fail and
that the farmers win now insist on the
decision being carried into effect.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1907-12-24
Injunction Is Granted.

The matter was referred to an examiner
to take testimony and after nearly a year
consumed in taking testimony the case
was finally brought on for argument be
fore Judge Marshall. The proof showed
that most of the ores in the smelter con-
tanned large quantities of sulphur, which
was thrown out into the atmosphere,
forming sulphur diOXide, SulphurOus and
sulphuric acid. Some of the ores also
contained arsenic and lead and these pois-
OnOus substances were thrown off and
carried by the wind to various parts of
the valley and deposited upon the vegeta-
ton so that domestic animals were pois-
oned and large numbers of them killed.
After the case was submitted the cir
cult Judge John A. Marshall took the
case under advisement and in October,
1905, decided il in favor of the complain
ants. Under his decision each of the four
smelters was enjOined from further op-
Grating in the manner in which they had
in the past and from Smelling any ores
which contained an excess of 10 per ceflt
sulphur.
The smelters .thereupOn appealed the
case to the circuit court of appeals, Civ
ing a supersedeas bond, which permitted
them to operate until the case was heard
on appeal. Judge Marshall annexed as
immediate operation of the injunction
that the smelteEs should prosecute the
appeal with diligence, so that it might
be heard at the May term of the appel
late court. This the smelters did and the
case was argued at st. Paul in May Of
this year by Judge Dickson, Judge How
att Judge Street and Waldemar Van
Colt for the smelters and Judge w H.
King for the farmers.

Decision Is Affirmed.

After argument the court took the case
under adVisement and on Nov. an opin-
ion was handed down affirming in every
respect the decision of Judge Marshall.
This opinion was written by Judge Riner
and concurred in by Circuit Judges Van
deventer and Adams.
In the meantime negotiations had taken
place between the complainants and the
American Smelling & Refining company
looking to a compromise which would
permit this smelter to continue its opera
lions. The smelter reduced but small
quantities of sulphide ore and, while il
was the chief offender in the emission
of arsenic and lead. its conduct was not
so hurtful to the crops and vegetation.
1t agreed to put in certain devices which
would prevent the escape of any arsenic
lead or any solids. Certain other con-
cessiOns were made by it, together with
a payment of a bonus to the complain
ants 1t further agreed to arbitrate i'm
mediately the question of damages sus-
tanned by the cOmplainants-
Pursuant to the agreement entered into
it dismissed it's appeal at the time the
case was argued before the circuit court
of appeals. and modified decree was
stipulated to be entered in the circuit
court where the case originated. There
fore the decision of the circuit court of
appeals affected only three smelters.
