EFFECT WEARING AWAY.
Cache County Hurt by the Financial
Stringency.

Logan, Nov. 24-The money stringency,
which has affected this section quite as
badly as the other parts of the state
shows signs of letting up, one of the big
banks of the county having announced
that il is ready to resume cash payments
If the other banks will agree to, and there
are indications that the others will so
agree If the present hopeful tone of feel
ing prevails. The furry has caused a
good deal of trouble in some parts of this
county, preventing the marketing Of
crops in many parts.
On the west side of the valley, particu-
larly in the Charleston, Newton and Tren-
ton districts, where a great deal of dry
farm grain is raised, IL has been impossi-
BILE to move the crops. There are nearly
800 cars of wheat awaiting shipment, and
the farmers say the prospects for getting
it off their hands appear very remote.
One Ogden firm has contracted for $50
advance payments, but it cannot sell a
pound of it at present, as a result of
which the farmers have been complaining
greatly, but with the indications of a
general loosening up a much better feel
ing prevails. Business here has fallen off
considerably on account of the stringency
and merchants ara preparing but light or
ders for spring goods.
Lorenzo Hansen. manager OF the Cache
Valley Condensed Milk company, re
turned yesterday from a trip through the
eastern states. He was away about six
weeks and during that time visited TWEEN

WILL PREVENT
FUTURE FLOODS
Breakwater Built by Southern
Pacific and Power Compa-
MES on Weber River.

In preparation for the high water sea
son and with view of eliminating the
danger caused by the overlooking OF the
Weber river at the head OF the Fremont
canal. the Southern Pacific railroad, To-
gether with the Utah Light and RAILWAY
company, have built a breakwdter at the
headgates of the canal opposite the Amdi-
gamated sugar factory. This work was
completed during the past week, and cost
in the neighbOrhOOd of $300e.
The construction work was done Whlle
there was ten feet of water in the river.
1t consists of two rows Of pilinS, boarded,
so as to form a sort of a box, and ttled
in with more than fifty carloads of gravel.
It is seven hundred feet long and is eX-
pected to eliminate. among other things,
a possibility of the Southern Pacific road
bed being washed away at that point
During the past year or two consider
able trouble has been experienced IN con-
trolling the waters at this place during
the high water periods. Last spring every
effort had to be put forth to prevent the
water from overlooking and forming
new channel down through the Statewide
settlement Had the break occurred the
loss to land owners in that territory
would have aggregated many thousand
dollars. TO say nothing of the loss that
would have been sustained by the rail-
road people. Much concern was felt at
the time by the power people. who own
the canal. and the railroad company, and
immediate steps were taken to prepare
the necessary plans for the work which
has just been completed.

Chicago, Nov. 24.-Denials of charges
in the answers filed yesterday by J. j.
Astor, J. T. Harahan and others in the
Hin rs Central injunction suit brought
by StuyveSant Fish, were made today
by Henry w. Leman, attorney for Mr..
Fish. He intimates that legal redress
may be sought for his client as q re-
suit of the allegations in the documents
placed on record yesterday.
THE so-called injudicious loans made
by Mr. Fish while he was president of
the Illinois Central were all approved
by the board OF directors" said MI
Leman. Among these loans We're
some TO Messrs. Hartman and Pea
body. Neither is the Missouri Pacific
a competitor of the Illinois Central, as
charged and the assertion thai Mr.
Fish is trying to regain control of the
latter road in order TO operate il in the
interests of the Gould line is untrue. "
A motion to dissolve the injunction,
so far as it applies to the $500 shares
of The Illinois Central stock owned by
the Mutual Life Insurance company,
will be argued before Judge Ball in the
superior court of Cook county tOmOT-

clearing house authorities through it's
loan committee, which is involved by
the issuance of clearing house certifi-
Gates. has brought the loan accounts of
the banks under a scrutiny free from
all collateral influences and impartial
in it's requirements. The result has
been an exercise of discrimination
against some existing accounts which
eXacted their liquidation on forced
terms. Maturity of time loans on
which renewals were refused was an
other factor in the urgent selling which
appeared in individual securities, both
in The stock and bond list.
These clearing up processes were an
inevitable after effect of the turbulent
events which had preceded it and such
operations are to be interpreted in the
light of those past events rather than
as a reflection of current general con-
ditions The liquidation has been pain
full by reason of the inadequate de-
mand to absorb it, new buying being
restricted from the same causes that
necessitated the liquidation, the prin-
cipal being the continued stringency of

WASHED OVERHEARD At SEA
Three Children Drowned While on
the Way From Puget Sound
Ports to San Francisco.

San Francisco. Nov. PA tragedy of
the sea was revealed today on the arri-
val of the steamer President from Pu-
get Sound ports, The officers of the
President reported that when off
Gray's Harbor Nov. %, three children
were presumably washed overheard by
a heavy sea. The children were missed
about O'Clock in the afternoon. Aft
err a strict search of the vessel it was
recalled that at 2:20 p. m. heavy sea
struck the vessel and it is supposed
that al this time the children, who
were playing. on the deck. were carried
overheard. No one saw them go. The
children We're: Rita Schotte, aged II;
Ada Schotte aged 4; FlOssie Buchanan,
aged 13.
The Schotte children were recent ar
rivals from Australia, having come
with their mother to Victoria, where
they were met by the father, A. A.

family and bring them to their new

the entire system. 1t would then be-
come necessary, as in the days before
the civil war, to examine every bank
note received in order to make sure
that it did not come from bank which
had failed with defective securities for
its notes. This difficulty would be OBJ
waited by the creation of a guaranty
fund, as under the plans of the cham
Der of commerce and the bankers as
ISOLATION, but supporters of the latter
plans declare that it would be a super
latiVe provision to adopt both forms of
security and that the guaranty fund
anords the most complete protection
against scattered losses.
One of the questions which Is likely
to arouse serious discussion. is whether
a cash reserve shall be required against
the proposed notes. A reserve of the
same amount as that required against
deposits is provided by the bankers
plan and is considered important by it's
supporters in order to keep the issues
of notes linked to the gold and prevent
indefinite expansion and excessive gold
exports.

A GOOD THING.

There's a clause in every agreement
we write when any one takes one of
our safe deposit boxes. to the effect
that no money is to be placed in the
box.
There are several reasons for this.
the most notable one being that we do
not approve of the custom some people
have of boarding money and keeping it
out Of the legitimate channels of trade,
investment and general circulation.
That clause was there before this
temporary tightening in the money
market set in. 1t has not been placed
there on account Of it, but simply be-
cause we had in mind just such an
emergency. There are other reasons,
of course, but this is the best.
In spite of this clause, we are rent
ing more safety deposit boxes than
ever befOTe-a pretty good indication
of the way the city is fixed, for peo-
pie don't rent boxes unless they have
something to put in them. The boxes
are fire and burglar proof, and the
price is less than a cent a day.

NEW ORLEANS MAY GO DRY

New Orleans, Nov. 24.-With dry
New Orleans as the aim of the pro-
hibitionists. and a reformed" New
Orleans as the object of saloon keepers,
d crusade rejecting the prohibition
movement in other parts of the south
began here today. Ministers in nearly
all local churches devoted part of their
sermons to appeals for prohibition of
the liquor trade.
The announced CLAN of influential
dealers is first to force the resignation
from the Louisiana Liquor league IF
Objectionable members. and second &c
petition the city council to close up the
saloons of such retired members. Ihe
closing of dives, especially of negro re-
sorts. is one of the objects of the liquor
dealers. Another is to create such SUI
roundings where drinks are sold as will
minimize drunkenness and violence.

GOLD LEAVING GERMANY.
Reichsbank Lost 100000 During
the Past Week.

Berlin. Nov. 24.-Gold continues to
leave Germany in steady stream, the
Reicnsbank having lost probably So,
OOO, 900 during the past week. But the
stock has been more than replenished
through arrivals from other sources.
The Reichsbank is trying to increase
its gold supply by paying out bank
notes of small denomination which re-
Gently became available for circula-
ton.
The impression is that the gold ia
ken for the United States was drawn
from the open market. The tendency
shown in Wall street during the past
week has had a calming tendency up
on the minds Of the financial commun-
ity and the hope is now entertained
that a gradual recovery will now set
in in the United States.

Counting Upon the Letters.

Several witnesses, such as Mr.. Win
ger and Mr.. Livingstone, will yet be
introduced to contradict the testimony
of Mrs. Bradley. The prosecution is
also counting much upon the revela-
lions that will be made in letters of
Mrs. Bradley's which were found torn
TO pieces in her room after her arrest
for shooting Senator Brown. They were
rescued and pasted together and Mrs
Bradley identified them as hers while
on the stand.
The opposition is just as confident
that they have shown a deranged mind
and a provocation sufficient to justi-
fly the jury in agreeing with them.
Much sympathy is being expressed
from all parts of the country for Mrs.
Bradley, and in some instances it has
taken the shape of efforts of financial
assistance. Not only her attorneys,
but the mental experts, are rendering
service without charge.

Breaking Saloon Keepers.

Chicago, Nov. 24.-Some two hundred
volunteer detectives from the subsid

Evidence for Grand Jury.
The evidence collected today. it is
