CHICAGO IS READY
TO Do ITS PART
VIII Build Great Warehouse
for Wool Raised in
the West.
BANKS ALSO AGREE
TO FURNISH THE CASH
lntermountain Sheep Raisers
to Hold Meeting Here
on Monday.

"There should be 9 wool organiza-
tion in this state,'' said William H.
Manss, industrial commissioner of the
Chicago Association of Commerce, Sat
urday evening. Mr. Manss is here to
attend the convention Of sheep raisers
which is to be held in this city Monday.
He is enthusiastic over the wool ques-
ton, and believes that the very near
future will sec an organization of wool
growers in Utah that will rival any like
association in the country.
Mr.. Manss will be remembered by
many as the representative Of the
Windy City sent here last August with
a committee of men from various cities
of the West who had made application
for a vast wool warehouse to be located
IN their respective cities The commit
tee paid visit TO each Of these. and
later on, while in Chicago, settled upon
that city as the place. As result of
the action by the committee, Chicago.
through its Association or Commerce,
came to the support of the project, and
not only granted the requests made of
the city, but went them one better. To.
day specifications and plans for the
building are ready, and the exact cost
of the great structure has thus been at
tanned. The city is ready with several
hundred thousand dollars to do its share
toward having the great national wool
warehouse located there, and the ques-
tion is pow up to the wool men them
selves. II is expected it will be settled
at MONDAYS meeting.
The banks of Chicago have promised
10 loan all the money wanted on % per
cent margin on all wool shipped into
Chicago at the current rate of interest
OF about D per cent per annum. Ar
rangementS are being made with all
the railroads running into Chicago for a
storage and transit rate, and Eastern
manufacturers have practically agreed
TO purchase wool direct from Chicago.
Thus every arrangement for the success
of the plan has been made, and the rest
remains in the hands of the wool men
themselves.
Speaking of Utah Mr.. Manss said:
In this state you raise about $1,000.
600 pounds of wool a year This wool
warehouse means that the wool rasers
in this state will have full and complete
control of all their wool stored there.
They will be notified daily what this
wool is worth and they can sell it OF do
with it is they please. A wool organiza-
tion in this state could do most effective
work. 1t would prove to be an induce
ment for the growers TO raise better
wool and il would promote greater in.
terest in the grade of wool and in the
entire sheep industry
Mr.. Mapss not only represents the
Chicago Association Of Commerce, but
also the Great Central market of Chi
cago, which is composed OF about 1900
firms and between 10000 and $1,000 in
dividuals. Every firm in Chicago of any
Importance is represented in it.

CONTROVERSY OVER
CHECK FOR S2OO5.5O
Sacramento National Bank Sues
Utah National in Federal
Court.

Suit has been entered by the Cali.
fornia National bank Of acramento
against the Utah National bank of this
city, the papers being fled Saturday in
the Office of the clerk of the United
States district court. The amount of
the suit is $200j.50, with interest at
s per cent dating from December last
and all court expenses.
According TO the papers filed, the
California National bank during the
course of business on September 10,
1907, accepted check for $4,000 dated
September 2, drawn by one S. P. Phil
ipps on the First Bank of Ponderay
and payable to Albert Wonderlich. The
check was sent here for collection and
was received by the local bank on
September Is, 1t was accepted and
credited to the account of the Califor-
MIA bank. When the check was pre-
sented for payment, the papers allege,
payment was refused and they further
claim that the Utah National bank
failed to notify them of tho non-pay-
ment until November II, or sixty days
later.
On December 5, the plaintiff bank
alleges. it had on deposit in the local
bank the sum of S4162.4l, and that the
Utah National bank deducted from this
the sum OF $2005.50 on account of the
non-payment of the check. the $3.50
being notary protest fees. The Califor-
MIA bank has twice requested payment
OF the amount due, the last request
being made on January %: but each
time it has been denied. and it now
sues to recover the amount, together
with interest and all court costs.
