After striking Haney. Mr.. Fisher turned
westward in Second South street clanS-
ing the bell of his machine and STRIVING
to bring 1t to a standstill. But TIE excite
ment of running Gown the man made him
nervous and he was not able TO gain con-
troll of the auto. In front of the Onyx
Bank the left front wheel of the machine
rolled off. This caused the auto TO Veer
to the south curb. There is struck with
a crash and the machine was wrecked.
Leaving the broken auto wnere II Law
in front of the Cullen hotel, Mr.. Fisher
hurried to tie Smith Drug company
store. where the injured man had be9n
taken. He found that DIR. 5. G. Paul, the

club a few minutes before the accident
and started to my home at 1906 West Sec
ond South street Turning from First
South street into Main street, | drove my
machine to Second South street, and
turned the corner in front of the Walker
bank I did not see any person ahead OF
me- So far as I could see. the way was
clear until l struck the man. He must
have walked in front of the machine
That is the only way l can account for
the accident.
This occurrence naturally excited me,
and | was not able at once to bring the
machine to a stop. A little way west from
Main street one of the wheels of the auto
dropped off. This forced ne toward the
south curb. The second front wheel rolled
off just as the machine struck the curb.
Charge Fast Driving.
The accident created a great deal of ex-
element at the corner of Main and Sec
ond South streets. A large crowd quickly
gathered Persons in this crowd who said
that they had witnessed the accident sa!d
that Fisher was speeding his automobile
and turned the corner in front of the
Walker bank at a high rate OF speed.
They said there was a crowd OF men ami
women standing in the street close TO
the sidewalk and that several of these
had narrow escapes from INJURY. Among
these. were two women.
Police Surgeon Samuel G. Paul, VINO

Peter A. Droubay says that by mistake
he paid J. E. Game 500 too much for dis
posing of some real estate in Tooele
county. and now wants the money back.
In a complaint filed yesterday he says

of the price received providing that he
could make a sale. Game negotiated the
deal and was paid $500 in advance Of the
culnolnation of the transaction. The sale
price was $4,000 and Droubay says he for
got that he had paid out $500 and gave
Game the entire 10 per cent, or 1880
which was $500 too much.

Realty Values

Values in real estate in Salt Lake
City have steadily increased. I'm
proved property and soil that is
under cultivation yield regular re-
turns. First mortgages, accord
ingly, are safe investments-es-
pecially when they represent
property valued at twice the
amount of the mortgage. We sup
ply first mortgages yielding a 6
per cent net income.

SPEAKERS AIR
VARIED VIEWS
Spirited Discussion of Financial
Situation by Local Bust
ness Men.
NO AGREEMENT REACHED
OPEN MEETING TO BE HELD
NEXT WEDNESDAY,.

For four hours and a half yesterday
afternoon representative business men,
who comprised the special committee
to discuss the feasibility of asking the
United States to resume the purchase
of silver in large qantities as a relief
for the present financial crisis, suggest
ed plans of relief and argued them at
their meeting in the Commercial club.
After all of the discussion had taken
place and the committee seemed as far
from solution as ever, it was decided
that a subcommittee consisting of
John Dern, Thomas Kearns and c. c.
Goodwin be given power to formulate
plan of action after another meeting
next Wednesday evening. at which rep
resentative men from all over the state
will be present.
One of the speakers yesterday sug
gested that the number of correct solu-
lions to the financial problems was linn
tied only to the names in the director
les of the country. His statement was
borne out by the fact that everyone on
the committee had a different remedy to
offer and every one, apparently, had
different-ideas as to the causes of the
stringency.
The consensus Of opinion, however
was that this is the time to take some
action to induce the government at
the next session of congress to increase
the purchase of silver each year as an
economic measure and not as a restOT-
alton of bimetallism. BY this method
the committee agreed the circulating
medium would be increased to a con-
siderable extent and a financial strin-
gency such as the present one would
be practically impossible.

Monetary System Defective.

There was much difference OfOpinion
as to the causes of the furry though it
was practically agreed that one of the
principal factors that made such a sit
uation possible is a defect in the none
tary system of the country. That this
would be remedied i'm a large measure
by the resumption of silver purchases
and the increase of the amount of sill
yer coined was also accepted as a fact.
The cOntributOry causes to the finan-
cial disturbance came in for a great
deal of discussion. The ROoseveltian
policy had but few defenders and there
were several open attacks made on him.
Former Senator Thomas Kearns made
the statement that Roosevelt is a the
Orist, that he is a menace to the vested
interests of the country and that he
knows nothing of the intricacies of the
financial questions with which he has
been attempting TO cope.
Senator Kearns eulOgiZed E. H. Har-
riman as the man who had opened up
the great resources of the west, who
had improved every mile of track of his
system, giving to the country the best
transportation facilities available He
compared Roosevelt and Hartman and
in the comparison Roosevelt was poor
second.

Silver Congress Suggested.

Judge E. F. ColDorn talked at some
length on the details of a plan to get
the matter before congress as early as
possible. He suggested that a silver
congress be held in Salt Lake on De-
cember Is next at which there would
be ten delegates from each of the sill
ver-producing states and that at this
meeting a strong delegation be named
to be sent to Washington to lobby Tor
the passage of some measure that
would contemplate the increased coin
age of silver and the increased purchase
of silver from the west.
Senator Kearns suggested that the
relief planned should be something at
fecting not only the west but the en-
tire country. He said that the eastern
interests are suffering more than the
west during the stringency and that II
something were done it should contem-
Mate the relief of the entire country
Judge ColbOrn said that that was a
matter for the financiers of the east 10
get together and determine upon, after
which representatives of both the east
ern and western interests might col
laborate on a measure to be put through
congress that would be satisfactory and
beneficial to the entire country.
Judge Goodwin recalled the Gays OF
1893 and of the difficulties experienced
by those who attempted to gain rellet
for the situation. He was in favor or
something being done through congress,
but called attention to- the difticultles
that were in the way of accomplishing
the desired end.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1907-12-01
Open Meeting Called.

Another plan was suggested py
Charles A Quigley. In his opinion
solution of the problem would be the
issuance by the government of from
$3.50. OOO. 600 to s2OO. 900 in reclamation
bonds to be redeemed when the ARD
and semi-arid lands of the west were
reclaimed and sold.
Among the other speakers at the
meeting were Governor John c. Cutler
John Dern. Willard F. Snyder and w.
]. Halloran. Mr., Halloran was CHAIR
man of the meeting and Fisher Harris
secretary. The discussion was IN
formal.
The committee of three appointed to
formulate a plan of procedure looking
TO a relief in the shortage of circulate
ing medium was instructed to invite 10
the meeting to be held next Wednesday
evening at Z o'clock at the Commercial
club representative citizens including
bankers. business men, lawyers and
newspaper men from all parts of the
state 10 consider more fully the propo-
sition and to get from these men their
views on the situation.
