STOLEN GEMS
FOUND IN OGDEN
Express Package Containing
Loot From DayneS' Store
Intercepted.
ADDRESSED TO DENVER
SEND ON DEcoY TO CATCH THE
CONFEDERATE.

Chief of Police George A. Sheets and
Captain Raleigh of the detective force
yesterday discovered a live wire in the
big Daynes jewellery robbery case and
went to Ogden on the trail of the robbers.
Word was received from a member of the
party last night that a considera bic
amount of the loot was discovered at
ogden and identified by Mr.. Daynes. who
accompanied the polise officers on their
trip
1t was developed Yesterday that two
men went 10 Ogden Immediately after the
robbery here aud sold to several gamblers
some of the diamonds that had been stolen
from the jeweIry store here. Later IN the
day a package consigned to man in
Denver was intercepted by the police in
an Ogden office of an express company.
This package was marked ''jewelry-" It
was seized by the police anG opened. It
was found to contain a Quantity of the
jewelry that was stolssu from the Daynes
Jewelry store here It was also learned
that the man who had expressed the
package had purchased a ticket for San
Francisco and left over the Southern Pac-
ific. Sheriff Clark at Reno was notified
and he searched the train but failed to
find the man he was looking for.
A novel scheme has been arranged in
an attempt to entrap the other rObber,
who is believed to be the party to whom
the parcel intercepted was consigned. A
package has been made up of the same
size as the one in which the jewelry was
found and wrapped in the same wrapping
paper that was about the original one and
sent to this man. The Denver police have
been notified by wire and when the con-
federate receives the bogus package he
viii be arrested.
The discovery of the stolen gems was
fortunate one and the police have strong
hopes that it will lead to the recovery of
all of the stolen property, and the arrest
of one il not both OF the men who per-
petrated the $4,000 diamond robbery here
! two weeks ago.

APPLYING THE
NEW MEAT LAWS
Secretary of Agriculture Wilson
and Chief inspectors Con-
ferring in Chicago.

Chicago. May 6.-Secretary of Agri-
culture Wilson today met in this city
the chies meat inspectors of every large
city in the country for the purpose of
comforting upon the practical applica-
ton of the new meat laws TO the
slaughtering and packing industry. The
inspectors, numbering about $50, met
the secretary at the Auditorium hotel
and proceeded to the Union stockyards,
where the conference, which is to con-
tinue for three days, is being held.
The stockyards and the packing
houses were first inspected and an ex-
ecutive meeting was then held, at which
the phases of the law were discussed.
DR.. A. D. Melvin, chief of the bureau
of animal industry, delivered an address
later in the day. He stated that on
July 1. 1866, there were engaged in meat
employees. There are now 2,029 employees
at 669 Establishments There have been
granted to retail dealers or butchers, as
provided for by law, 1858 certificates of
exemption. Inspection has been with
drawn from forty-eight official estab-
Iishments because of failure to maintain
a proper standard of sanitation, and in
some cases because of the use of pro-
hibited Preservatives.
1.-THE approximate cost" said DIR.
Melvin, "of the inspection as conducted
at this time is for cattle and calves,
five cents per head; for swine, sheep
and goats, three cents per head. and for
the inspection of meats received at Off
cial establishments from other official
establishments one-half mill per
pound
In conclusion, Mr.. Melvin said that
the department had received in gen.
eral way the corporation OF the pack
ers. Tie greatest difficulty thus far
has been the attainment of cleanliness
Conditions were, in his opinion, work
ing steadily for the better

SIGNAL HONOR FOR UTAH
One of the Two Monster Battleships
Will Probably Be Named
for This State.

Washington, May 6.-President Roose-
welt has under consideration the nam
ing of two battleships of the Dread
naught type, for which contracts will
soon be awarded The ships will be
given the names of states, according to
custom. Most of the states have been
honored already, but there remains
Delaware, Utah, North Dakota and
New York that have no vessels named
for them. New York is eliminated for
the reason that there is an armored
cruiser named for the city of New
York When Oklahoma qualities as a
state it viii give the navy department
one additional name TO draw upon.
While no action was taken today it
is thought likely that Delaware, the
second smallest state in the union, will
be honored by having one of the great
est batt.cships named for it, and that
Utah will be the other state to be so
horored. An effort has been made to
induce the president to authorize the re-
naming of the cruiser New York, and
to call one of the new battieships after
that state, but it is not probable that
the movement will succeed. Eventually
the war vessels smaller than battle
ships of the first class must be re-
named if the present plan is carried
out.
