state gratis by the railroad company for
this purpose. but when II came to final
signature Of the transfer the company
officials changed their minds upon the
protest OF Mr.. Warren. on the ground
that the establishment Of fish hatch.
cry at that point would interfere with
his private fishing privileges, and the
matter has been In statu quo ever since.
Mr.. Warren. who operates number
of Gsh wheels and traps upon the Co.
lumbia and Tanner Greek In the imme-
date vicinity Of the proposed site Of
the hatchery. bases his protest upon the
provisions OF the state fishing laws,
which provide that wheels and fishing
contrivances are not allowed TO operate
within two miles Of fish rack. and says
that II the hatchery Is established there
II would put him out OF business. The
land Is Of no value commercially or
otherwise. and the fish commission be-
lieves that the assessment Of damages

THRILLING EXPERIENCE
Deputy United States Marshal Tells
of Terrible Blizzard Prevailing
on the Uintah During the
Past Week.

A dispatch from Salt Lake City
states that Deputy United States Mar
shall Julian Riley returned to Salt
Lake Saturday from a weeks trip
through the Uintah reservation and
Emery county. Riley reports heavy
snowstorms in the mountains through
which he travelled and on the deserts.
One morning while travelling from
Dragon to Mack over the Uintah rail-
way the train became stalled in the
snow in the mountains and the pas
sengers did not reach their destina-
tion for more than eight hours after
ward. The usual time taken by the
train to make the trip from Dragon
to Mack is about three hours.
The passengers We're without food
and for a time it looked as though
they would be compelled TO remain
several days in their storm swept
prison. Finally, however, the wreck
ers managed to reach them and pillow
a passage through the immense drift,
permitting their train to pass on its
journey.
Riley was caught in a blizzard on
the desert while travelling by stage
from Price to Huntington and de-
tanned for more than eight hours. A
ferocious wind was blowing and beat
ing the snow against the faces of the
lane passgnaer and driver when,
while nearing a dangerous place in
the trail, the driver suddenly fell
asleep, having become blinded and
stupified by the storm beating in his
face.
Riley resuscitated him in time TO
save the horses and the stage from
plunging into a deep gulch.
