which has occurred within its eXclu-
slve confines, Burglars entered the
residence of w 3. Dinsmore, Jr,. ear
~ SUNDAY morning and stole silver
plates valued at $1,000 and two vio-
Inns valued at 50 900. The silver taken
weighed about $50 pounds.
Investigation shows that the thieves
carried their loot through the woods
TO the lake and ferred it across in
one of Mr.. Dinsmore's boats From
there IL is supposed the burglars took
Il wagon and went to Mfddletown.
Air Dinsmore entertained a large
party of guests at dinner Saturday

festivities concluded the family plate
was not restored 10 the strong boxes
Immediately, In some way the thieves

fruitless.

FISH CAPTURED
IN KITCHEN TAP
Champion Story of the Season
Comes From Residence
On Ninth East.
ALL PIPES WERE STOPPED UP.
But When the Outlets Were Opened
They Each Gave mp Some Por.
ton of Young Trout.

Here is the champion fish story for
the vintage OF 1907. The fish i'll ques-
ton is not large one. for It is only
a two year old trout of seven inches
in length. and the hero of the battle
to capture It is Mrs. Lester Merrill of
1893 South Ninth East street.
An affidavit OF veracitv accompanies
the story and attached to It are eX-
hihits A. b, and c. respectively, being
the skin of the fish, portion of its
cooked flesh, and its backbone entire.
The capture was made yesterday
morning at the family home. The
water supply came from the city
mains and the scene of activity was
at the kitchen sink tap, the bath tub
faucet, and the outlet from the hot
water boiler near the kitchen range.
WATER TASTED FfsHY.
It was 10 o'clock yesterday morning
when Mrs. Merrils attention was
called to "Ashy" taste in the water
by her young son, Lester. She told
him he was Imagining things, and
went about her work until she needed
turned the tap and found the pressure
shut completely OF, As the plumb
ing was newly put in she feared there
had been break somewhere, and turn
ed the water off at a stop cock con-
trolling the house. Then she sent her
little boy for the plumber While she
went outside to try and get some
water from the lawn bbb. None
would flow from either. SO going inside
she turned on every tap IN the house
to prevent back suction in case the
water had been turned off the mains.
CAME THROUGH IN SECTIONS.
They all remained empty for some
time and then the tap In the bath
room began TO drip. Presently solid
substance put In its appearance and a
whole skin of a fish burst through
backed up by good pressure of water
4 few minutes later the kitchen tap
began TO show signs of activity and
bubbiinE through that came complete
back bone. The bath room wash
bowl was next to indulge IN fishing
and its contribution was collections OF
side fins that hadAbeen sclapea on the
sliin While The fish was being Broken
up under the head OF pressure. Then
came some more from a less expected
place. The hot water tap began TO
pour out boiled fish, cooked perfectly,
water boiler and the water Jacket in
the range After that bits of flesh
continued to come from all the taps
until the whole anatomy of the fish had
been recovered. To make sure about
il the taps We're left running for an
hour after the discovery was FIRST
made.
FISHING AT HOME,
The trout must have found It's way
into the mains alive. and met its death
IN the service pipe shortly before clog
gng up the intake to the Merrill resi-
| dence, rs it showed no signs of de-
composition. In telling the story and
backing il UP with the exhibits, Mr.,
Merrill declares that he believes the
| fishing party of his Wife in the kitchen
water taps was more successful than
that OF any of the Waltonian disciples
who yesterday whipped their way up
and down Parleys creek, or NH creek
or Big Cottonwood.

Figures Compiled Show a Dis
tinctIy Interesting State OF
Affairs on Big System.
1852 CARS ARE DAILY HELD.
Shippers Fail to Unload That Number
And Hold Them Every Day Accord
ing to Statistics Compiled.
Especial to the "News.'3

New York, June 24-Figures COM
piled at the request of Il. II. Hartman
show the great extent to which Pacific
coast shippers are delaying the unloas
ing of freight cars urgently needed to
move the record breaking freight traf-
fic on the Southern Pacific The rec
ords OF the principal California and
Oregon shipping centers show that
since April ] an average OF SG82 cars
per day were held overtime for unload
ing on the Hartman lines in this ter
ritory.
JUNE SHOWS IMPROVEMENT.
From that date 70 May conditions
grew rapidly worse. but the June rec
ords show considerable Improvement
owing to the railroads insistence that
cars be released. Portland shippers on
April l were holding ga cars, which
they had Increased to 1923 on MAY 1. and
reduced to 216 by June II. san Fran
isco, which had 1850 cars tied up on
April l, was holding 235S May l. and
l,64O June Il. Oaklands record was
494 for April l, APO for May l. and 1866
the middle of this month Sacramento
and Los Angeles shippers are holding
l50 more cars now than on May !.
WHAT 1T REALLY MEANS.
The average number of ears so with
held from service aggregate over 20
per cent of the total new equipment
bought by the Union Pacific and South
ern Pacific for delivery UP TO July l.
This new equipment amounts to 5000
cars for the latter system and 1000 for
the Union Pacific lines. The advantage
shippers would derive from this large
addition to the Hartman lnes' equip
ment. involving an outlay OF Sal, 600 600,
is materially offset by shippers delays
in unloading and releasing cars.
UNFAIR TACTICS.
owing TO the freight congestion four
months ago when the Southern Pacific
was loading 10 cars a day into san
Francisco in excess OF the number of
cars unloaded. warning was given that
embargoes or increased denlurrage
charges would be necessary If cars were
not released more promptly. These
warnings have been repeated more
lately in other quarters. and the ut
most effort is being made by the COM
'rauy 10 ecure the co-opera NoR !of
shippers in getting the freest use of its
cars and to make shippers realize that
the use OF freight cars as storage ware
houses is unfair both to the railroad
and TO other shippers.
