The cigaret law passed by the
last legislature was knocked out
on a technicality by Judge f. II.
Sullivan, who this morning sus-
tanned the demurrer of w. S. Win
sor, the restaurant man, and dis
missed the case.
Winsor was arrested some weeks
ago by Constable Blonde Woods,
to whom he sold package of Turk
ish cigarets. After his arrested
Winsor said he did 1t deliberately
to test the validity of the law.
The grounds of the demurrer
were that the title of the law pur-
ports to restrict the sale of cigarets
and the body prohibits it.

took place just before noon. About 100
men refused to return to work after the
dinner hour. A committee from the union
waited on the mine manager this after
noon. but the result of the conference was
not given out. The mine owners claim
that the raise voluntarily given a year
ago was conditional that copper remain
above Is cents. and now that copper is
below that figure they were within thor
agreement with the union In returning to
the wage schedule i'm force before the
raise. The men contend that although
copper has declined. the price of living
still remains the same II was when the
raise was given and that the present
schedule pays barely living wages: tnat
the wage scale at Butte is far IN ad-
vance of the wage scale at Bingham. and
there is no material difference in the cost
of production. 1t is rumored tonight that
the men were willing to return to work
and accept the old scale. but this is de

WOULD SUPPLY GASLIGHT

The Utah Gas & Coke company is
making strenuous efforts TO induce the
council at least to light two streets
with Welsbach incandescent gas bOlIl-
evard lamps, and has submitted a rug
gestion to the individual councilmen,
as its proposals to the special light
committee have been ignored and new
er placed before the council. The sug-
gestiOn cOntemplates the installation of
$50 arc lamps, furnished by the Utah
Light & Railway company, which, at
the $50 rate, would cost $4,000.
For itself the company wants 10 Sc
cure a contract for lighting State
street from Eagle Gate up through
Canyon road to Second avenue, and
thence east on Second avenue to West
street.
In addition, it desires to light Sec
ond South street from State to Tenth
East street.
If the new arrangement is adopted
it would make the total cost of city
lighting $49,64S, or about $4,000 more
than the present cost. with about dou-
bic the number of lights.

BOND ISSUE IS
SLICED IN TWO
Secretary CorteIyou Will Only
Put Out SEE, 900, 900 on Ac-
count of Panama Canal.
STILL LESS OF WAR LOAN
TOTAL AMOUNT OF 8 PER CENTS
WILL BE $4,000, 900.

Washington. Dec. 6.-The secretary
Of the treasury has accepted bids for
he Panama canal bonds TO the amount
of SOS, 900, 600
The average price of all the bids &C
cepted is 103. Under the terms of the
law and the secretary's acceptance of
these bids, the allotments of bonds of
individuals and institutions will be
confined to the small subscriptions
from $4,000 down to $50. g
The amounts of bids from individ-
uals and Institutions which 1t has been
possible to accept will, as heretofore
stated, not be large. The remainder of
the acceptances viii be bids of ma
tional banks. The bids accepted have
come from every section of the country
and are mostly in small. amounts.
Notices to Be Sent Out.
Secretary Cortelyou further says that
the notices Of aceeptances will be pre-
pared and mailed to the successful
bidders with the least possible delay.
The notices will state that payments
for the bonds will be expected to be
made at the treasury of the United
States or at some sub-treasury, as in
dicated in the bids Of the subscriber,
within ten days from the receipt of
the notice by the subscriber. In cases
where the subscriber has not indicated
the place of payment, the notices sent
viii include a request that the place of
payment be Immediately made known
TO the secretary. All subscribers should
await receipt of the notice from the
department before taking any action
respecting payment for the bonds.
OVer-Subseribed.
The Offering of Panama canal bonds
was largely over-subscribed, but the
Improvement IN business conditions
following the announcement of recent
measures of relief by the treasury de-
partment is regarded by the secretary
as warranting him in limiting the is
sue at this time to half the amount
offered, namely. S25, COO. 600. This is al
most exactly the amount of the dis
bursements from the general fund of
the treasury that have been made dur
ing the year on the Panama canal &C
count.
The allotments OF the 3 per cent GER
tificates will not. the secretary says,
exceed $4,000 900. These have been
confined TO national banks throughout
the country which were in position to
take out at once additional circulation,
this being a measure designed TO af-
ford immediate relief, inaSmuch as a
considerable time would necessarily
elapse before the Panama canal bonds
could be put on the market.

Oakland, Cal, Dec "a special train
of four Pullman coaches and two bag

isfled that IS per cent of the members
of the union were not in sympathy
with him in this move, but they seem
to be so thoroughly under the control
of a few leaders that they have been
afraid to take Independent action.
Many of these men are anxious to re-
turn to work, and in my opinion there
will either be a split in the union in
GOldfeld or the open shop rule will pre-
vail in all of the large mines there. The
Mine Owners association is deter
mined that it will no longer submit to
the arbitrary dictation of a few union
agitators"

so that the facts impelling the ordering
| of troops might be known. In addition
to General Funston's first dispatch an
nouncing that he had intended to send
| two companies in the first place to
| Goldfield, came later correspondence
showing that upon inside information
as to the situation In that mining camp
! it had become apparent that a much
larger force would only invite attack or
resistance by the riotous element, when
an overwhelming force would insure
peace by making it apparent to the
| lawless element that resistance would
be hopeless.
Following his first dispatch above re-
| ferred to. General Funston last night
telegraphed the adjutant general for
authority to hire transportation for his
troops in Goldfield and vicinity. He
said:
should it be necessary to send any
there I deem it inadvisable to ship any
wagon transportation with the troops
unless a considerable number should be
sent"
This was taken to mean that, while
the troops could be transported to Gold
field by rail. some means of transporta-
ton would have to be found on arrival
at that place for the rations, ammuni-
ton, machine guns and other supplies,
and perhaps tentage that would be sent
with the troops.
Wired to Act Promptly.
General Ainsworth dispatched the fol-
lowing telegram to General Funston:
Governor of Nevada has called for
troops to be sent to Goldfield. The
president directs that you Immediately
send there such number of troops as
fO with
the situation effectively and finally. Go
yourself If you think best. You are au-
thorized to hire necessary transporta-
ton. The president directs that the
troops be sent with the least possible
delay. Act promptly and report action
by telegraph"
Then followed General Funston's dis
patch stating that he had ordered nine
companies of soldiers from San Fran
cisco and Monterey to start this morn
ing for Goldfield.
