WASHINGTON. June S.-There are
nothing but smiles in administration
circles over the reports from Chicago
as TO what has been happening in the
Republican national committee. The
president greeted his callers with
open expressions OF pleasure and
lesser lights in the administration
were equally demonstrative.
The walls OF anguish from the rep
resentatves of the allies only excited
laughter here and there and telegraph
and telephone wires carried messages
TO the Taft men in Chicago TO keep it
up. As the administration men see it,
the reactionaries are getting only
what is coming to them, and not a bit
harder than they would have been
only too glad 10 deal II out If they had
beer the winners.
Crane and his colleagues are beg
ging for mercy and are willing TO ac-
cept anything II Hitchcock will only
permit them TO get away alive. That
is why the White. House s-2rins SO
broadly today.
No Quarter TO the Allies.
If the sentiment in Washington cuts
any figure in Chicago, no quarter will
be given TO the allies until the con.
vention has adjourned Friends OF
the president and Secretary Taft say
that not in many years has there been
q campaign I'm which so many per
sonal meannesses have been perpe-
trated as in this II is declared that
the allies have displayed a personal
bitterness and spite that is utterly in
applicable. and nave resorted to all
sorts OF underhand tricks.
AS an evidence OF the triokery they
point TO the statement before the ma
tionaI committee of Stripping OF Flor
ida. who admitted that It was Rep.
Butler Ames of Massachusetts, an
agent of Senator Crane. who fur
nished him the forged tickets of ad-
mission TO the Florida convention, on
finch their contest was based.
The administration is confident that
its control will continue undisturbed
TO the end Of the convention. II Will
result In the adoption of straight
out Roosevelt platform. In the choice
of a straight-out Roosevelt man to run
with Taft. and In the choice OF man
OF the same type TO manage the cam
paign.

AlFF's BtlATtD REPORT
Figures Discounted by Previous
Statement Submitted by
Special Auditors.

Five months overdue. the annual re-
port of Rudolph Aft. city auditor. was
issued yesterday.
The excuse given by the auditor for
not having his report prepared within
the time allowed by the statute is that
the special auditors who were devising
a new system of bookkeeping for the city
delayed him. In this connection it will
be remembered that Gideon Snyder city
treasurer. prepared an annual report in
January, and it was suppressed by the
auditors as not conforming to their 'sys-
tenn"
The report of the auditor SLOWS nothing
of any particular interest. the field hav-
ing been previously covered by the re-
ports of the special auditors, made some
months ago.
1t shows that the receipts for the year
were $,0S1. 1879. and the disbursements
81 Jas, $40. 10. making an excess of disburse-
ments over revenue of $50. 36l.S0 This
includes all funds, general and special
But the auditor makes light of this
deficit. as he shows that the city had
coming to it on Jan. l. 1905 $3.50. .O5 in
uncolected revenue. thus making bar
ance on the right side of the ledger OF
$500. 16 AS 90 per cent of this ''un-
collector revenue will always remain un-
collected. il is nothing more than a paper
credit The practice of using it to offset
a deficit pleases the administration anc
doesn't do any particular harm.

unpaid.
The mayor directs attention to the
fact that THE result of this enormous
expense and this protracted litigation
has been to increase my total vote and
diminish my official plurality by about
500 disputed ballots

SAN JUAN AND WAYNE
Two Counties Lack BARRIERS Accord
ing to Annual Report Of Ex-
aiming Board.

San Juan and Wayne counties have no
BARRIERS. At least the state board OF ex-
aminers for tonsoriaI artists say SO, and
any state board ought to be relied upon
for the facts.
Whether the people of these counties
go unshaven or whether they operate
their own razors is not stated in the an
nual report of the board. which was
MED with the governor yesterday
The report itself gives a considerable
amount of statistics about the shavers
and hair cutters who manipulate razors
and shears within the borders of Utah.
For instance, there are 433 licensed bar
bers and TO apprentices in the state. These
gentlemen are confined to 302 shops in 12l
towns. Salt Lake has 60 shops in which
III BARRIERS operate. and there are "a APP
prentices who are just learning.
The board examined 1875 BARRIERS who
applied for licenses during 1907. OF this
number 14o were granted the privilege OF
shaving Utah citizens
Sixteen arrests for violations of the
law were made and 10 convictions secured
Thirteen shops were closed because OF
unsanitary conditions
William Pigott is the chairman of the
board; DIR. C. NJ. Benedict is the treas
urer, and 7. A. Hill is secretary.

Work has progressed so far upon the
Western Pacific railroad that the task
of coming names for the stations. the flu

The first station west of Salt Lake
will be known as Buena Vista. 1t will
be three miles from the city. The name is
fanciful one. inspired by the beautiful
view of the surrounding country from

The next station. seven miles away. will
be called Fox, after Fox's addition. Then.

had been stuffed and requested the
court to throw out the entire vote OF
112 election districts in which he
charged that the ballots found in the
boxes exceeded the number of regis
tered voters. This, however, was based
on an incorrect list of voters. and when
the correct list was produced today Mr.
Shearn said that the registration was
greater than the poll is every district

Justice Lambert declined to throw
