THE WOMAN IN THE CASE.
Mrs. Lazarro Salamanca, the wife of
the plaintiff in the case of Salamanca
versus n. J. Louis, now on before Judge
De Bolt, gave some astonishing testi-
mony in the trial yesterday. In this
case the plaintiff is suing the defend
ant, a storekeeper, for $4,000 damage
for the alienation of his wife's affee-
tions, taking advantage of the absence
of the plaintiff on the mainland with
Joe Cohen's band to supplant him in
the affections of the woman.
Mrs. Salamanca was called to the
stand as a witness for the defence. and
her testimony against her husband s
cause was that there had been no af-
lection on her part for the absent hus-
band for him TO be defrauded of. With
great GOODNESS she recited a list of
names of men who had been nearer and
dearer to her than the one whose wed
ding ring she wore, stating among other
things that her husband was not the
father of her child.
The plaintiff is represented by Ma
COON & Lightfoot, while the defendant
is his own attorney. He can speak no
and all his questions to wit
nesses and statements have to be in
terpreted.

FREIGHT WRECK
ON RIO GRANDE
Engine and Five Cars DeraiIed
by RocksIide at Jordan
MarroWS.

A rock slide across the tracks of. the
Rio Grande Western railroad at Jor-
dan Narrows caused a freight wreck
on the road at 4:4O yesterday morning.
The engine and five cars were derailed,
and traffic over the road was delayed
twelve hours. All of the trains of the
Rio Grande used the tracks of the Salt
Lake Route from Provo to Salt Lake,
and arrived in Salt Lake two hours
late.
The train was known as extra west
ern freight, and was coming toward
Salt Lake at the time of the accident.
Engineer Goodale saw the rock on the
track just as the train crossed the JOr-
dan bridge, but was unable to stop the
train in time to avert the wreck. The
engine and the first five cars were de-
rallied, but the contents of the cars
were not seriously damaged. No one
was injured. The first car was loaded
with miscellaneous merchandise, the
second with implements, the third with
cement. the fourth with pig iron and
the fifth with breakfast food. The
claims department had not estimated
the exact amount of the loss up until
last evening.
A wrecking crew was sent to the
scene Immediately after the accident
occurred, and by 4 o'clock yesterday
afternoon the tracks were cleared for
the trains

WEATHER BACK TO EARTH
Comes Out of It's High Flights and
Resumes Business After Good
Old Fashion,

The weather came back to earth yes
terday, after having enjoyed itself with
all sorts of high jinks for a week. The
day yesterday was superfine. No fault
could be found with it. The temperature,
While lower than II has been generally
during fair weather days, was such as
to impart to the air that bracing quality
which makes one feel like a new man. -
The highest attained by the thermome-
ter Yesterday was So which admittedly
was, and the minimum register was 81
The lowest temperature during the twen-
ty-fOur hours was z, at o clock yes
terday morning There was no precipi-
tation, but the local office is still ahead
of the game, for the records show an eX-
cess of OF inch since the first of the
year.
The weather man says it will be fair
today because there is a Pacific high
pressure. This pressure. according to the
weather office, has increased in energy.
Zero temperatures were reported in WyO-
ming and the British Northwest Territory.
The lake storm has moved to New Eng
land, where it IS attended by rain or
snow. The Gulf states were not entirely
free from disturbances, but they were
moderate in character.
The station at Lander in Wyoming re-
ported a minimum temperature of be-
low. and this also was reported from
Swift Current in the Northwest Territory.
1t was zero at Bismarck and above at
MoOrhead. Calgary, where it has been
cold braced up yesterday and reported
above for the minimum.
In spite of the fact that the storm
had moved eastward and had touched
the New England states, the temperature
at Boston was only 50 for low and SS
for high, and at Mortified it was 50 and
&c. The rest of the country had season
able weather.
The meteorological report for the day
reads:
Temperature al p. m, "a degrees: max
imum temperature, SO degrees; minimum

ture, % degrees, which is IL degrees be-

ROASTs CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
Governor Glasses Alleged Abuses of
Cult Along With Running of
Endurance Race.

This brutality directed against a help
less dumb animal, which has no voice in
the matter, is akin to the brutality of So
called Christian Scientists and others,
who wilfully deprive their helpless chill
dren of proper medical care when they
are afflicted with allowable disease. Both
forms of cruelty are reprehensible and
should be prevented by proper enforce
ment of law"
Thus does Governor Cutler take a fall
out of Christian Science and the teach
ings of Mary Baker Eddy. The occasion
for this outburst on the part of the
governor is a letter to DR.. William o.
Stillman. of Albany, n. Y. president OF
the National Humane association. DR.
Stillman recently wrote to the governor
and asked him to prevent if possible the
proposed endurance horse race between
Denver and Ogden.
The governor in his reply, besides TAX
ing occasion to score Christian Science
says he will do all in his power to stor
the race if it is attempted and will call
the matter to the attention of the hui
name officers of the state for investiga-
ton.

The new Tunnel cafe, at No. A East

INSURANCE. MEN
ASK FAIR DEAL
would Compel Foreign Com
panles to Be Treated Same
AS Home Concerns.
UP TO STATE SECRETARY
REQUEST HIM TO REQUIRE SAT-
lSFAcToRY SHOWING.

A square deal and an even break all
around is what the standard insurance
companies want. At a meeting of the
local board of fire underwriters yester-
day 1t was decided to address a com
munication to the secretary of state sug-
Sesung that he impose on foreign insur-
ance companies the same restrictions and
limitations that apply to home compa-
MES.
The idea in offering this suggestion is
70 reduce the number of wildcat in
surahce companies doing in business in
Otah under character organizations in
other states. The laws of Utah require
that a local company shall have a GER
tam capitalization and a certain amount
In assets 1t is the request of the rep
resentatiVeS of standard insurance com
panies that all foreign companies be re-
CURED TO come within the terms of the
Otah law before they are given a IL
eense.
The annual reports of the various in
surance companies doing business in Utah
are now before the secretary of state 1t
reports and refuse a license unless the
showing is such as would be required of
Utah company.
1t is manifestly unfair say the insur-
ance men, TO permit a foreign company
with assets of questionable value to come
into this state. write a lot of insurance
and then get out again, while the local
capitalist who engages in the insurance
business must come up 70 the letter and
the spirit of the law It is the hope of
the people who are doing a bona fide in
Surance business that the secretary of
state VIII act upon the suggestion made
yesterday by the board.

WILL RESUME BUSINESS.
Plan to Put Knickerbocker Trust
Company on It's Feet.

New York, March An order was
granted today by Justice Clark in
the supreme court, Station Island, for
the reopening on March 20 next of the
Knickerbocker Trust company, whose
suspension last October, following a
two days bank run, involved the saw
ings of nearly 90 900 depositors, brought
the president of the institution, Charles
T. Barney, to his death in a sensa-
tionaI manner, and precipitated such
an unsettlement of public confidence
that the panic of 1907 resulted.
The reopening of the KnickerbockeT
Trust company, in accordance with
plans for rehabilitation prepared after
four months labor by a committee of
depositors, will release to the welfare
of the community assets aggregating
$43, $40, $40. The granting of the re-
sumption order was reflected in a
smart advance in security values today
on the stock exchange.
Under the terms of this plan of re-
Mobilization the depositors of the Knick-
erbocker Trust company will not re-
ceive their deposits in full when the
trust company opens its doors, but will
receive 10 per cent on the opening day
if they want it and the remaining pOr-
tions of the deposits can be withdrawn
at intervals covering a period of about
two and one-half years. A compare
lively small number of the depositors
refused to assent to the plan of re-
sumption, and these depositors by their
refusal to assent to the plan viii be
in position to demand payment of
their deposits in full.
A large percentage of the depositors
assented to the plan, however, and
are bound by it, and it was by their
action that it was made possible for
the institution to resume business.

OPERATORS ARE WAITING.
Local Employees of Rio Grande Have
No Word From Denver Meeting.

No further word had been received
up to yesterday afternoon by the local
operators in the employ of the Den
Yer < Rio Grande regarding the wage
scale. The operators at this end of the
line say they are waiting for the re-
suit of the conference in Denver and
that their interests have been left en-
tiriy in the hands of the delegation
representing them. For the Salt Lake
division the representative is W. r.
Lewis of Soldiers Summit.
By the terms of a circular issued
some time prior to March 4, when the
nine-hOur day law became effective. a
number of changes were made in the
wage scale and working conditions
Generally speaking, the operators fig
ure that a reduction of about l6 per
cent is the meaning of the circular.
The Salt Lake office has not been af-
fected and a number of the larger, or
relay" offices will not be. Along the
line the company has made the scale
$50 month where three men are en-
ployed, made necessary by the short
ening of hours, and at some places the
night man has been dispensed with.
With reference to the talk of strike
the local operators say they can not
tell what will be done until they hear
from the committee now at work in

HORSE STEPS ON WIRE.
Shock Renders Animal Unconscious
for an Hour.

One of the big brown horses at
tached to d beer wagon of the A. Fish
er Brewing company came near to be-
ing electrocuted yesterday afternoon
about 1 o'clock in Second South street,
between Seventh and Eighth West
streets. Some linemen employed by
the Bell Telephone company had cut a
wire and it was lying across the street
when the brewery wagon passed. One
of the horseh stepped upon the wire
and was instantly knocked down by
the shock. 1t was at first thought that
the animal was killed, but after being
unconscious for about an hour. it was
able to regain its feet. apparently none
the worse for the adventure.
