HUGHES SIGNS.
Well-Known Pitcher to Play in Wash
inEton

Notwithstanding the winter blasts blow
ing around his retreat in Chicago. Manager
Cantillon has been busly engaged In sign
ing up the Washington players for next sea-
son. President Noyes received word this
morning that Pitcher Tom Hughes placed
his name to contract yesterday, and that
the tall boy was highly pleased that he was
once more back in the American League
ranks and with his old friends on the Ma
tionals. Sir Thomas had narrow escape
last fall when he deserted the Nationals
and hooked up with Jimmie Galatians Chi
cago outlaws, but the national commission
forgave his little indiscretion and let him
of with a small fine. There is no doubt
that Tom Hughes Is one of the best twiri-
ers In the country when he puts his heart
in his work. and as he is a great friend of
Manager Cantiilon, the chances are that
the washington fans win see the Chicago
had at his best next summer.

Habits in Application
for Divorce.

A penchant for dinners with strange
men, eliminating in desertion, is the rea-
son given by Willard T. Jones for his de-
sire to obtain a divorce from Mary A
Jones in a complaint filed in the district
court yesterday afternoon.
Jones and his wife have been married
less than a year the ceremony having
been performed at Pennington April 2
1906. According to the complaint. Mrs
Jones made d practice of going out aft
ernoOns and evenings and visiting res
tauTants and cafes with men whose names
Jones did not know. She also welcomed
visitors to their apartments, it is alleged
and all in such a manner as TO be OBJ
served by the neighbors. with the result
that Jones life was rendered miserable
by the receipt of notes and taunts from
acquaintance.
Finally. on Feb. g. 1897. Mrs. Jones left
and established home of her own at an
other rOOming house. The complaint sets
forth that Jones demonstrated with her
as to her conduct on number of occa-
siOns, but without success until he be-
came so Inundated and shamed that he
is nervous, i'll and unable TO sleep as a re-

JOBBERS PLAN
FREIGHT BUREAU
To Handle Traffic Matters and
Try to Correct Al
legged Abuses.
SECRET MEETING Is HELD
SCHEME INVOLVES JOB WORTH
$4,000 A YEAR.
SECRET MEETING is HELD

a move is under way among the JOB
bling interests of Utah to establish
freight bureau NJ the Commercial club,
the bureau to be in charge of an expert
traffic man at a salary of not less than
5000 a year.
The bureau is to be established for
handling freight matters for the jobbers,
wholesalers and merchants of the state
in such a manner that the trade trlbu-
tary to this city and state will be re-
tanned and extended if possible.
A secret meeting of thirty jobbers ana
wholesalers. representing every industry
in the state along these lines was held
at the Commercial club yesterday after
1hentically learned from those who at
tended. il is believed the jcbbers went
on record as faVoring the establishment
Of the proposed freight bureau at once.
The meeting was called by the board
of governors of the Commercial club,
though that body did not preside or at
tend the session.
The claim has been made that Utah
merchants are losing valuable trade IN
the intermountain country as result OF
1lnfaVorab BILE freight rates out OF SAT-
Lake. The board Of governors called the
meeting to discuss the matter and talk
over the proposition of establishing a bu-
reau the oDJect of which should be the
inVestigat ton of freight rates of all lines
in the state, with view to obtaining
concessions. Yesterdays meeting was
largely informal and decisive action has
been postponed until another meeting OF
the jobbers of the state can be called.

Alexander Anderson, a candidate Tor
initiation into the Alpha Pi fraternity at
the university. was tried and tested by
a jubilant gang of the fraternity poten-
tates last night and despite his trials
proved his fitness for the honor to which
he aspired and was duly admitted to the
inmost mysteries of the fraternity.
The tests, to which the youthful noVl-
tate was put. might have shaken the met
tie of a much older and more experienced
man, but the youth went through II all
without a suggestion df the white feath-
err The obedience test was the one which
was his hardest trial. for it led him first
to ridicule and finally to a cell at the
police station without permitting him TO
utter word of protest.
The young man was CARRIED in linen
buster and silk hat and carried d yellow
and blue umbrella. He was taken to the
monument corner and ordered to stand on
the corner gazing at the statue of Brig
ham Young with his umbrella raised to
protect him from the mellow moonlight.
Under no circumstances whatever was he
to speak a word to anyone or to protest
against anything that might occur.
