COAL PRICES

STOCKS LOCEL MARKETS

SALT LAKE, Dec. Aberdeen
coal, lump and nut, dropped yester-
day from $3.50 to Sc per ton, and
the Wyoming Goals will follow. Alb
erdeen is the best of Utah Goals and
is equal in fuel value to any of the
Wyoming Goals. 1t is the only Utah
coal which commanded the same
prices as the imported Goals, and if
the Wyoming people wish to use
Utah as a market, it is declared
they will be compelled to sell at the
price local competition affiXes.
The general coal outlook is i'm
proving and a shortage is no longer
feared. Local dealers are confident
that it is only a matter of time un-
til the coal market regains its for
mer solidity. The closing down at
Anaconda has made possible the di-
version to this market of a large
supply that last year was shipped to
Montana. The curtailment in con-
nectiOn with the Salt Lake valley
smelters has increased the domestic
supply more than 0,000 tons. There
is plenty of coal in the coal yards
and dealers declared they will have
no trouble in filling orders.

fected, forcing the applicant to be-
gin proceedings anew.

sumption of operations on the bridge

the question that is being aske& in

The visit of Mr.. O'Brien is regar =

Hartman construction would ne

JUSTICE O'G0RMAN DECIDES
ALL FORMS OF SUNDAY EN-

TIONS OF LAW .,Ali

NEW YORK, Dec. 4.-The Sum
day theater in New York city will
be a thing of the past if decision
rendered by Justice O'Gorman, in
the supreme court today is enforced.
In a sweeping opinion the justice
denounced as a clear violation or
the law every possible form of Sun
day stage entertainment, under
whatever title.
The opinion was rendered in COM
firming the report of a referee in
the case of William Hamnlerstefn,
involving revocation of his license
for the Victoria theater on a charge
of having violated the law.
The referee found that only five
Of the acts given in the theater were
in violation of the Sunday law. but
Justice O'Gorman disagreed with
him and said leach of the 20 acts
set forth in the petition constituted
clear violation of the law, sufff-
cient to justify revocation of the IL
cense and punishment of the pro-
prietors and the performers. The
law is plain. All performances in
places Of public amusement and en-
tertainment on Sunday are prohfb-
tied"

CONSUMERS MAY GET CHEAPER
! FUEL, SAYS A CLEARWATER
MAN-$4 TO $3.50 NOW PRICE
AT CLEARWATER POINTS
Two Thousand Cords Now Piled
Along Railway and Farmers Are
Bringing in More Every Day
Holding Back Supply AsA


Lewiston fuel consumers can ex-
pect a big drop in the price of wood
within the next six weeks" said a
prominent citizen of the Clearwater
country, who is a business visitor in
the city today.
at shipping points along the
Clearwater large quantities of wood
are stored and from the asking price
of $3.50 per cord of a few weeks
ago, the buyer can now secure all
he wants at from 81 to $3.50 per
cord.
"At the Orofno station there is
1000 cords now piled along the rail-
road, and farmers are delivering
more every day. 1t is safe to say
that at least another 1000 cords win
be added to that now stored for ship
ment.
The same condition is true at all
wood shipping points, and men are
going to the timber every day to en-
gage in the wood cutting business
Tor the winter. IL is SaIe TO predlcC
that more wood will be cut in the
Clearwater country this winter than
ever before, and much Of this win be
forced onto the market early in the
spring"
The present prices of wood in
Lewiston have been kept up by the
persons holding the wood in the out
side country, and much of the wood
placed on the market here was
bought for Sc per cord at the ship
ping stations.
The drop in prices at Clearwater
points will materially effect the To-
cal market and reductions may be
expected within a few days.

FIGHTING FOR THE OPEN SHOP
Fifteen Hundred Men Locked Out
by Contractors.

DULUTH, Mimi, Dec. 4.-Duluth
is now involved in a fight for the
open shop in the building trades.
About 1900 men have been locked
out by the contractors.
The trouble is the result of the
employment of nonunion men by the
American Bridge company, which
held the contract for the steel work
on a new office building. Tie light
is directed against the building
trades alliance, rather than the
unions, and the contractors intend
to break up that body if possible
claiming it is arbitrary and anfair
in its methods.
