ADDS NEW JEWEL
TO C|TY'S CROWN
Beautiful Federal Heights All
Ready to Be Turned Over
to Municipality.

Matters connected with the develop
ment Of Federal Heights reached the
final stages during the past week. when
the last stakes defining the building lots
there were driven and the engineering
work was completed. Plans for filing the
plat with the proper city authorities are
being prepared and will be presented
some time this week. This means that
within short time the public portion of
this beautiful residence section Will be
turned over to the city In a condition
never before presented by any addition
here,
The handsome petrolithic paving has
been completed and the machinery was
taken away Friday. The roads through
out the place are now In perfect condition
A visit to the heights is a revelation. The
parks are now in full bloom, with rows
Of attractive shrubbery and green grass
plots. Only one of these is uncompleted,
and 1t is the intention next spring to
plant this with roses, a feature which
promises to be unusually effective.
The trees, especially on the higher
ground, have developed rapidly and pre-
sent beautiful appearance as we'll as an
added atmosphere of cultivation to the
whole addition. bringing the place ma
turally into harmony with the improve
ments along South Temple street 1t is
| truly pointed out that Federal Heights
is the first addition that has ever been
turned over to the city with everything
connected with the place completed.
WORK on the new houses IS progressing
rapidly. The handsome residence of J..
F. Nibley, Just at the junction OF SigsbeC
avenue and East South Temple street,
facing COnnOr park, is practically COM
pleted outside, and the contractors are
preparing to put in the window and door
frames.
The new home being erected by A. V.
| Callaghan, at the corner Of Perry ana
| Sigsbee avenues, is now enclosed and the
! roof has been put on. This structure
! promises to be one of the most beautiful
| residences on the heights. The house
stands facing Farragut park, looking to-
wards the northeast to Dry canyon and
Black mountain. One of the notable fea-
/ lures of the house is the fireplace, out
Z of doors, on the front porch, which is ar
ranged so that it can be enclosed with
/ glass and thus be used during the even
/ ingS of early fall Although facing the
mountains, the house will have entrances
/ from both of the avenues on the sides.
/ From the rear an UneXcelled view of the
/ Salt Lake valley to the westward can be
obtained.
/ In this structure, as we'll as in the resi-
dence of II. W. ThrOCkmOrtOn, which
| was completed last spring, there is Illus
/ trated the fact that practically every
/ home on the heights will be unhampered
/ by adjoining houses in its view OF the
/ surrounding country. This is special
| feature which can be obtained in no other
/ residence addition in the city.

THE CRESCENT CREAM
COMPANY INCORPORATED
A Wide Awake, Progressive Firm.

The writer was pleased to look through
the Crescent Cream company's plant
and note the Improvements recently
made. The firm incorporated on Aug.
with W. ]. Blake, president; F. NJ
Drumm, treasurer, and G. NJ. Drumm,
secretary. During the ice famine this
summer they shipped in several cars of
ice from Butte, and gave their customers
good service without increasing prices.
During the ice shortage they installed 4
refrigerating plant the first plant of the
kind installed in the city for freezing
ice cream.
1 was also shown large shipment of
individual moulds just received from the
east, including all the new designs in
this line of delieacies. They are with
out doubt the best equipped firm in the
city 10 supply the family trade with all
the up-to-date novelties in frozen goods!
Notwithstanding the present well
equipped condition of their factory, the
Crescent Cream company have perfected
plans for the coming season, giving
them an unlimited supply of ice, and a
capacity Of 5000 gallons per day. This
will take care of the rapid growth OF
our city and the increasing demand for
their goods throughout the state. We
bespeak for this firm a bright and pros
porous future.

BILE COMP AAY ORGANIZED
Taxi" Service for Salt Lake Next
Month.

Mr.. Hartwick, president, and Mr..
Kahn, secretary and treasurer of the
Taxicab & Automobile company, a cor
poration recently organized in Salt

cure the agency for the Garter car line
OF. taxicabs and touring cars.
They say that they will have twenty
FIVE "taXis" in operation on the streets
Of Salt Lake just as fast as the factory
can turn them out. Their statement
means that this city will rival cities of
much greater size in having the most
modern and latest equipped taxicab
service in the country.
The first shipment will consist Of ten
cars, The remaining fifteen that COM
plete the contract viii arrive and be put
in operation as the factory is able to
supply the company. The cars being of
special order and workmanship, will ne
cessitate more time being spent on their
manufacture than those of an ordinary
order, hence their late delivery.
The taxicab is one of the most modern
and improved inventions of the century
1t is a motor car for public service, the
passenger paying only for the actual
distance he travels, as recorded by the
taximeter. This particular type of We
hicle is provided with the most modern
conveniences. such as electric lights
speaking tube for signaling the driver
etc
Messrs. Hartwick and Kahn also Sc
cured the agency for the Thor motor
cycle, one Of the most popular cycles in
speed circles. owing to its extreme
speed. lightness and simplicity.
In the near future the new company
will establish their offices. The exact
location they will occupy is not stated
as yet.

SAYS THEATRE
IS A NUISANCE
SaIOOniSt John Baer Wants the
Majestic Playhouse to Move
Away From His Place.

Claiming that the Majestic theatre is a
nuisance and hurts his business, John
Baer filed his answer in the district court
Yesterday to the injunction suit brought
by the theatre to close up his saloon at
20 East First South street. The suit of
the theatre company was filed in court
after the city council issued a license for
Baer.
Baer claims, in his answer, that there
has been a saloon at 20 East Pirst South
street for twenty years and that two
years ago the Majestic Amusement COM
pany came along and established its the
atre the next door east of his saloon.
Then the theatre company tried TO have
Baer's license revoked and put him out
of business under the state law that a sa-
loon could not operate within fifty feet
of an amusement place Baer holds the
converse of this law to be true and de-
clares that an amusement company can
not locate within fifty feet of a saloon.
He declares the license under which the
theatre is operating to be null and void
and asks that IL be closed by Injunction
and compelled to move away. The plea
of the Majestic company for an Injunction
came before Judge c. w Morse yester-
day. but was postponed for argument un-
I'll next Saturday morning at 10 o'clock.
when the case Will be fought out once
and for all. But until that time both the
saloon ald the theatre will keep on do
ing business.

TO PREVENT CUT
IN WOOL TARIFF
Association Takes Steps to
Protect Fruits OF Victory,
Won by Senators.

Officers Of the National Wool Growers
association are of the opinion that the
growers of wool throughout the country
should be on their guard against a posi-
BILE effort on the part OF some interests
TO bring about a reduction of the tariff
on wool. c. B. Stewart, secretary OF the
Utah Wool Growers association. on Sat
urday received a letter from George ).
Walker. secretary Of the National Wool
Growers association, written from the
office of the secretary at Cheyenne. in
which il was said that. while many wool
growers of the country feel they are Sc
cure and that nothing Will be done with
the tariff on wool for years to come, there
is danger that this may not be true.
The letter calls attention to the hard
fight which was made at Washington last
winter, which was won by narrow mar
gin and says that wool IS about the only
commodity on which the duty was not
changed either up or down. the results
obtained being due to organization. The
letter says;
association. ably assisted by the state
and county organizations and by those
splendid workers, Warren, SmOOt and
Carter in the senate, Gordney, Cole and
others in the house, that enabled US to
win out"
It is said that the other side has not
been idle. however, and. assisted by the
carded wooden and carpet manufacturers,
they are quietly organizing for another at
tack on wool md wOOlens, which may
come at the next session of congress.
The letter says there is not much dis
satisfaction with the duties on wool. but
there are strong complaints against the
provisions of schedule K of the BILL with
reference to WOOlenS.
The letter contained a statement from
Theodore Justice Of Justice, Bateman &
Co, Philadelphia. in which he reviews
the questions brOughtsup by the renewed
tariff discussion and says il is uB to the
clothing manufacturers TO explain how
the tariff will increase the cost of cloth
ing to the consumer Sl20. 100000 for the
season OF 1910. as has been stated in some

is a question that has been asked al
most continuously since the railroad
magnate died, but Salt Lake officials
OF the affiliated lines believe he will
have no successor. At the stockholders
meetings here next week some one will
be named to take Mr.. Harriman's place
on the executive board. but it is not
expected that he will succeed to all the
duties Mr.. Hartman discharged.
The affiliated lines have been reOr-
gained In the last two years on what
railroad men call a military basis. 1t

some can command better than others.

Conference money was much in evi-

was that the retailers and the wholesal-

a rushing business. In banking circles

to maintain their cash reserves, likely

age for this time of year, with promise
OF lively trade throughout the talL
Builders hardware and sheet metal are
still in great demand,
The car shortage is still the important
feature in the business of the lumber
trade. Lumber dealers report that the
shortage continues to grow worse and
worse, with little prospect for relief I'M
til all crops are harvested, when more
cars will be available for other uses.
Most of the Yards were heavily stocked

fuel while on this 2650-mile public
test and the advantages gained
through it's use were we'll described
In the following dispatch which the
correspondent of the New York Sun
sent to his paper at the conclusion of
the tour:
"A feature of the tour which was
watched with special interest was
that the White Steamer used kero-
sene, or coal oil. as fuel instead of
gasoline. The new fuel worked
splendidly throughout the 2650-mile
journey, and all claims made in its
behalf were fully proven. First of
all. as regards cheapness, the White
driver secured kerosene all along the
route from cents to 10 cents cheap
er per gallon than was paid for gaso-
lene. Secondly, the new fuel was
handled without any precautions, and
1t was not unusual to see kerosene
being poured into the fuel tank while
the crew of the car and an Interested
crowd stood by with lighted cigars
and cigarettes. At the finish of the
tour, the White was the only car per-
mitted by the authorities to enter
Convention Hall where the technical
examination took place. without
draining its fuel tank. Thirdly, the
new fuel proved to be absolutely
without smoke or smell. Fourthly
kerosene could be purchased at what
venient, and not once during the trip
through the ten States of the Middle
West was there found grocery store
where kerosene was not readily and
cheaply obtainable. Finally. the
