Criminals.

Complete outfits of burglar tools and
two revoIvers were taken from two men
arrested at 100 O'Clock this morning by
Deputy Marshal Whittle. The men re-
fused to give their names and very little
is known concerning them 1t is believed
that they are two of a gang of crooks
that has been working Systematically in
Salt Lake City.
Deputy Marshal Whittle first saw the
men standing in front of the Atlas saloon
in Murray. When he approached them
they started down the street. He APP
preached them and asked them what their
business was. They said they were in
search of a place TO sleep. As their ac-
tions had been suspicious the deputy
marshal placed them under arrest. On the
way. to the Jail one of the men dropped
several skeleton keys. His action was OBJ
served by the marshal, who handcuffed
the two men together and searched them
before going any farther
A dozen skeleton keys, several flies. Two
pairs of pinchers, several candles, .3S
automatic revolver and .3s lver-John-
son revolver were found in their posses
sion In addition, one of them had a poll

Paris, April 1s.-The Cri de Paris,
which processes TO chronicle the doings
of the fashionable set of Paris, insists
in its issue of today that the mar
riage of Nine. Anna Gould. formerly
the wife OF Count Boni de Castellane
and Prince Helie de Sagan already has
taken place. The paper announced
some time ago that this marriage had
been celebrated secretly in Germany.
Today it says:
I'VE are now in q position 10 COM
plete our information. This marriage
was celebrated secretly in a little town
on our eastern frontier. When in New
York Nine Gould informed her family
that her wedding already was an ac-
|complished fact, and this is why the
members of her family so quickly as
scented. We would add that for GER
tain legal reasons which delicacy pre-
vents us from divulging, this marriage
can be broken. This possibly greatly
consoles the families which have been
so crushed by the marriage, but we
hope that they will not by any rude
process trouble the happiness of the
young couple. who during their sOjOurn
in New York, We're so much together.
Continuing, the paper adds that
Nine. Gould has resolved irrevOcably
| to break with the past. She is selling
out her celebrated wine cellar, and 4
merchant of Bordeaux has already pur-
chased $4,000 worth of her stock.

Question of Money.
No opinion is expressed by Secretary
Taft as TO how far the great power put
on the proposed commission in the
matter of the expenditure of money
should be limited. The bill makes an
appropriation of $50. 900, 900 to carry on
the work, and provides for the issuance
of bonds when this fund should fall be-
low $50, 000, 600. The suggestion of a
limitation on the commission is
thought TO indicate some doubt in the
mind of the officials of the war depart
ment as to the wisdom of placing too
much power in its hands Secretary
Taft suggests that provision should
be adopted requiring that the chief of
engineers of the army shall be MEM
Der of the commission, and for the de-
tail of military engineers to the serv-
Ice of the commission whenever such
detail shall be consistent with their
military duties.
Secretary Taft suggested certain
changes in the form of the bill to meet
constitutional and legal objections that
occurred to him. These amendments
relate to the general authority of con-
gress over inland waterways in con-
nection with navigation: the specific
authority over collateral works for pur-
srat 81 20 ha I'M. ,ka.,f
of navigation and the reservation to
the government of the control over
such collateral works now conferred on
ii by law.

Eavors Hepburn Bill.

vors the Hepburn bill, which was pre-
pared by the civic Federation. and he
is of the opinion that this bill, which
was prepare after long elaboration by
the federation and governmental and
congressional leaders, fully covers the
demands of the times The opinion at
the White House is that a commission
would merely delay action.
The Hepburn bill is one of the meas

Republican whip of the house, told the
president probably would not be re-
ported by the house judiciary commit

information available as to whether
the presidents opposition to COM

to the proposition for a commission to

FAKE INQUIRY PROBABLE
Speaker Cannon Contemplating a

Paper Trust.

Washington, April 1S.-In the event
the attorney general does not show
that something substantial has been
done to prosecute the paper trust as a
combination in restraint of trade, pro-
Viding the pending inquiry proves il is
operating in violation of law, congress
may go into the trust fighting business
on its own account.
Speaker Cannon and Chairman Payne
of the ways and means committee con-
tend that the tariff has nothing to do
with the high price of print paper; that
if the scarcity of the raw product is
not responsible for it, then the fault
lies with the paper trust, which, by
combining factories and regulating the
output, holds the prices up to suit
itself.
The speaker does not intend to rush
into trust fighting, but he may offer a
resolution providing for a searching in
uuiry by a congressional committee
into the operations of the international
PAPER company. This inquiry. if held,
will touch upon the sources of supply,
the methods of manufacture and man
ner of distribution of products of wood

TAFT ENDORSES
NEWLANDS BILL
Secretary of War Enthusiastic
Over inland Waterway
Commission Plan.

Washington, April 1S.-Secretary Taft
has endorsed enthusiastically the bill
introduced by Senator Newlands, pro-
viding for the appointment OF an in
land waterway commission and for the
Improvement and development of a
great scheme of inland water routes
throughout the country. The approval
from the war department was received
today by Senator Frye, chairman of
the committee on commerce. A mum
Der of amendments were suggested to
perfect the measure.
Provisions of the bill deemed of spe-
cial merit to Secretary Taft were
pointed out by him. Among these is
the provision for coordination between
navigation and other uses of the wa
tiers in connection with their improve
ment for the promotion of commerce
among states. This is recognized by
the war department "as wise and nee
essary."
Cooperation Commended.
The cooperation with states, munich
palities, communities, corporations and
individuals provided by the bill is par
ticularly commended. In this connec-
ton Secretary Taft says:
This provision seems ID be based on
the constantly increasing utilization of
the streams. not only for navigation,
but for other purposes which has ac-
complished extension of settlement and
Increase of population. With sparse
settlement largely confined along wa
terways there was little overlapping or
conflict of interests connected with the
running waters; but with the present
comparatively dense population not
only all uses of the stream, but all con-
fiictins interests must be brought into
harmony I'm order that the waterways
may be generally beneficial. This cam
not be done without careful regard for
interests of all the people and for all
the lawful means that may be en-
plOyed to protect them. The aim ap-
pears to be that of promoting union of
interests through mutually beneficial
cooperation, and thus meeting the re-
quirements of our growing population
and increasing industries. This feature
is recognized by the war department as
highly desirable"
Boards of Experts.
The proposition for the initiation of
projects by a board of experts meets
with the appreciation of the war de-
partment, regardless of the fact that il
trespasses on some of the functions of
that department which are prescribed
by existing law. Secretary Taft says:
The creation of an inland water
ways commission for the purpose of in
itiating plans for the improvement of
waterways seems to be a more effective
way of a general plan for the improve
ment of all waterways of the country
than under the present provisions of
