Believes New York Banks Arc Not
 Aiding Cities of Interior.
 New York, Nov. 14.-George B. Cor. telyou, secretary of the treasury, came from Washington to hold a conference with New York bankers and inciden- tally attend luncheon to be given by the Merchants association.
 Bankers were disturbed by notifi- cation from the treasury department calling upon the government deposi tory banks in this city to pay 10 per cent of their public deposits to the subtreasury. A limit of five days was given in which to make the payments, so as to allow the withdrawals to be made easily and without disturbing the local banking situation. In effect this will mean that $7,300,000 will have to be paid into the subtreasury by Mon day next. Some payments were made yesterday at the subtreasury. It was learned that Secretary Cortelyou be- lieves New York national banks have not done their best in assisting the interior correspondent and banking concerns during the present crisis.

THE GRIDIROk
THE INDIANS
 GOOD ATTRACTION
They Have Drawn Big Crowds Wherever They Have Played
 Other News.

In three of their games this fall the Carlisle Indians have played to total of 10000 persons and the crowds they will draw in Minneapolis and Chicago will bring up the total to 100000. The attendance at the Penn sylvania-C Carlisle game was 22,UO0, at the Princeton-Carlisle game was 20,- GOO, at the Harvard-Carlisle kick fest 2S,000. The two big games in the west ought to be good for 15,O00 at q conservative estimate. Carlisle'S other games, such as those with Syracuse and Pennsylvania State, swell the number appreciably. It will be seen, therefore, that the Indians are q tre- mendous attraction and fatten not only the coffers of their own athletic treasury. but those of their opponents. The Brown and Indian games have brought in good financial returns to Pennsylvania and other good cards on the schedule were Swarthmore, La fayette and Pennsylvania State. The Michigan and Cornell games will probably increase the total attend ance by 10000. Yale's biggest crowds so far have been at the West Point and Brown games, though the former brings in no gate receipts. The Princeton and Harvard games will mean total attendance by themselves of 60,OO0 and would draw good many more if the accommodations permitted it. The Indian, Cornell and Yale games will mean an attendance of at least 60,000 for Princeton, while four games-Carlisle, Brown, Dart mouth and Yale-mean combined attendance of close to 90,000 for Harvard.

MONEY KINGS PLAN PARTY.
To Oppose Roosevelt and Bryan if They Run Next Year, Says O'Brien.

They Run Next Year, Says O'Brien.
 New York, Nov. 14.-That Wall street will not be astonished if Roosevelt should be candidate for third term, believing that the president is plan ming for his own renomination, that 1t practically despairs of conservative ac. tion by the Democratic national con. vention, which, it fears, will be con. trolled by the Bryan and Hearst rad. icals, and that in the event of the nomination of Roosevelt and Bryan by the Republican and Democratic parties respectively in 1908, contingency deprecated but not unexpected, the great financial interests of the country will demand a third candidate around whom the conservatives of both par. ties may rally were the important pro. nouncements made by Morgan J. O'Brien of this city, former presiding justice of the appellate division in the First judicial department and now le. gal adviser of money kings.
 Taft former Justice O'Brien assert. ed, would not be more acceptable to the financial and business interests than would Roosevelt for the reason that he is too closely identified with Roosevelt policies.
 On the Democratic side Governor Johnson of Minnesota, Governor War. field of Maryland and former Governor Francis of Missouri were held up as the proper type of men, the nomination of any one of whom would have re. assuring effect on the country.

ELEVEN BRADLEY JURORS.
Insanity the Defense of Woman Who
 Killed Ex- Senator Brown.


 Killed Ex- Senator Brown.
 Washington, Nov. 14.-The entire day in the trial of Mrs. Annie M. Bradley for the murder of eX-Senator Brown of Utah was consumed in an effort to obtain a jury. Eleven men are now in the box, but all still subject to per emptory challenge. District Attorney Baker manifested an apprehension that the jury would be inclined to consider the case under the "unwritten law" and perhaps be inclined to shield the defendant from possible capital pun ishment because of her sex.
 Mrs Bradley's defense, it was shown by the interrogations of her attorneys, will be that of insanity. The questions they propounded to talesmen made this evident
 Mrs. Bradley is being tried upon the charge that she deliberately murdered ex-Senator Brown in his room at the Raleigh hotel in this city. She has ad- mitted the killing. and her attorneys will try to show that her mind was so unsettled by the long continued wrongs she is alleged to have suffered that she was mentally irresponsible.

The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1907-10-13

During the last few days of this sale.
we were besieged with numerous re-
quests for an extension of the time in
which to take advantage of this Won
derful plano opportunity.
Many conference and state fair Wis
itors told us that it would be impossi-
bic for their friends and relatives at
home to come to Salt Lake within the
limited time to make their purchase,
but could do so if we would extend the
time a week or ten days.
We could not grant the extension.
and so notified everybody. We were
practically tied up with contracts to
remove every instrument by Oct. IL,
and had no say in the matter of extern
sion.
But the requests came in just the
same, in such large numbers that we
prevailed on the contractors to give us
at least three days more, and we are
glad to announce that we have OBJ
tanned that much more time.
So. during the next three days the
cut prices will be the same, sale clos
ing Wednesday night. 1t would prob
ably be more accurate to say that the
cut prices would be greater than ever
during the sale, as we wish to make
absolutely sure that every instrument
will be taken.
In spite of the fact that more than
100 instruments have been selected by
the buyers during the past two weeks,
there remains a nice selection of the
better makes. The cheaper pianos are
all gone, but we will sell the better
pianos at prices less than you will or
dinarily have to pay for the cheap
kind at any other time or place.
If you have been a procrastinator;
if you have been unable TO attend the
sale for any reason, let nothing stand
in your way now of coming here Mon
day.
The piano of your choice is here.
At a great saving in price.
And on terms to suit.
