GRAND JURY NEAR END OF IT'S LABORS,
INDICTMENTS EXPECTED IN BANK CASE

Some persons about the federal
building say that there will be indict-
ments in connection with the Utah Ma
tiOnal bank case. These some have
figured it out that there will be three
persons prominently mentioned in the
report of the grand jury. Two of these.
il is said by the some" will be indict-
ed for actual connection with the theft
of the $l06.250, and the other for a viO-
latiOn of the banking laws.
Then. too, there are a good many
other ''sOmes" about the federal build
ing who say there win be no indict-
ments, that the government has failed
to present testimony sufficient to war
rant the return of bills. The gossip
has it, also that the grand jury is di-
vided in its opinion. Therefore, you
pays your money and you takes your
choice"
There is little question that the grand
jury is fast approaching the close of its
sessions. There is talk about the fed
eral building that the grand jury and
the authorities are strongly DESTROYS of
completing the work before the end of
the fiscal year, which is Tuesday. The

WEBER REFUSES
TO MAKE SPEECH
Failure of American" Cham
piOn to Talk Causes DiSap-
pOintment at Lagoon.
HIERARCH ESCAPES LASH
OUTING is ATTENDED BY LARGE
NUMBER.

The hierarch escaped a most severe
lambasting yesterday. The escape was
miraculous as it was only due TO the fact
that Andrew Jackson Weber refused to
make a speech at the american" party
outing at Lagoon.
Andrew Jackson Weber having been in
the forenoon nominated for the position
OF district attorney by his party. il was
thought he would sound the keynote OF
the campaign. People expected he would
tell about his plans if elected and large
and eXpectant multitude waited for him
10 crate. But Andrew Jackson Weber
would not crate.
The speechmaking was scheduled To
come off at $3.50 o'clock Ogden Hiles
and Mr.. Weber were advertised as the
orators. Hiles did not show up being
toe busy declining the nomination OF
judge, but Weber was there.
AT about o'clock a delegation of fran
tic committeeman went out on d still
hunt for him. He could not be located
for long time, but finally George r.
Hancock. a Vigilant American" discov-
cred him in Joe Sands cafe eating dinner
with his family.
''Will you speak?'' asked George.
Il will not" said Mr. Weber.
That settled it, and the speeches were
called off. WebeT's muteneSs has, how
ever, not as yet been explained.
The celebration was well attended, there
being many thousand visitors TO Lagoon
during the day. And the people were
disappointed because Weber wouldn' t
talk.
The American" committeeman were en-
thusiastic over the crowd and declared
that every one present would vote the
ticket. AS half were under age, and
many of the remaining half are affiliated
with other parties. the suppOsitiOn does
not seem we'll founded.
The program of sports which was adj
vertised proved as much Of a fizzle as the
speechmaking.
Prizes of 100 cents-cOunt 'em-were
given to the successful contestants in the
events that were pulled off
A girls running race was won by Flor
ence Shannon, and when the winner Of
the boys running race announced that
his name was John F. Smith, somebody
thought he said Joseph F. Smith, and a
riot was imminent until the confusion
was Strengthened out.
A swimming race between Miss Magdiel
and Oscar NOTdstrom resulted in vic
tory for the lady swimmer. She was
also rewarded with 100 cents.
George Sweeney captured the boys
swimming race.
The ball game between BOuntiful and
the Tribune-Americans resulted in favor
of the former by a score of to 2 Few
witnessed the game, as admission was
charged.

theory of these gossips is that the fed
eral officers are anxious to close up the
business SO that il may become a part
of the record and the expense of the
last year. instead OF permitting ii TO
run into the next fiscal year. How
much of truth there is in this talk, of
course, cannot be stated. if, indeed
there is any. The fact remains how
ever that there is a general air of eX-
pectancy about the building, and a
well defined belief that the report of
the jury will be forthcoming within a
day or two.
Great secrecy has attached to
handwriting expert from San Francis
co, whose name is Theodore Kytha
when he is at home in California, but
whose name, when ne is at the Wilson
hotel is entirely different This hand
writing expert gave testimony yester-
day before the grand jury. John Open
shaw, a local accountant, was also re-
called. j. Nat Londoner, commonly
called Doc" Londoner, attached to the
PinkeTton detective service, was also
a witness. LOndOner has been at work

OKRA IS ON The MARKET

in the way of growing things Almonds
grow in this state; so do glaciers. The
range between the two is immense, but
everything within that range can be
done in Utah.
The latest thing in the way of pro-
ducing delicacies is the growing of okra
in this state. This branch of plant Gull
tivatiOn is only in the experimental
stage, but those who are carrying on
the study and the tests that are nee
essary to make this highly favored food
product a success have every hope of
achieving the end toward which they
are devOting their time and efforts.
"Okra does not grow in this state"
said Professor L. A. Merrill of the Ag-
ricultural college and experiment sta
tiOns, yesterday, but we are making
some tests which we hope will be sue
cessful in the end. At the Nephi ex-
pertinent station we have a row OF
Okra, and l am informed that, although
the plant is only small in growth yet,
there is every reason TO believe thar
the experiment will be successful. The
seasons are so short here that there is
some doubt as to the ultimate outcome
of our trials. Okra requires from So to
40 days of favorable weather without
interruption at the right time, and it is
seldom that this period is realized here.
However, we feel encouraged at the
progress made by the plants We have
