CAUSED UNEAS|NESS
ALTHOUGH BASELESS
Wild Rumor That Roosevelt Had
Been Killed Circulated in the
United States.

New York, Nov. 5.-Another or those
apparently absurd Tumors that bob up

over the country today concerning IVt-
rner President Roosevelt.

taken as an additional indication tnat

SLAM At MULVEY
Says SaIOonkeeper- Council
man Is Unfit to Serve on
Two Committees.

When Martin Mulvey protrudes his
substantial person into the city coun-
ell chamber on the first of the year
and takes that load off his feet long
enough to resume his old chair, there
will be things a-popping.
Mulvey is now out shooting ducks
and Whetting an already practiced aim
for one Harper J. Dininny, city attOr-
the SalOOnkeeper-sol with having two
dirty fists. Dininny, who has always
been credited with more nerve than
personal popularity, arose at an Amer
lean love feast the other night and
talked straight from the shoulder said
talk being covered in the American
party organs with the killing refer
ence that 'Dininny also spoke" What
he really said was something like this:
81 deprecate church interference in
politics and / likewise deprecate the
interference of any fraternal or other
organized body. 1 am referring to the
Knights of the Royal Arch, which had
the temertty to name its own ticket
and circulate it among the saloons and
friends of saloons in Salt Lake prior
to the recent election"
It is recalled that the knights of
the Royal Arch is the sa1oonkeepers'
league. Further the city attorney and
city attorney ELECT said:
Il do not believe that it is wisdom
to permit a successful candidate who
has been the head and front of this
Royal Arch organization to partici-
pate in the vital actions of the city
council relating to liquor legislation,
nor do 1 believe that that candidate
should serve on the police and prison
committee. However, now that he is
elected, he shall undoubtedly fill his
duties in the council, but 1, for one,
shall use my influence and best efforts
10 prevent him from being appointed
on either of these committees"
The sensation created by the direct
reference to Mulvey was not mild. 1t
ended almost in fight, but Dinny had
said 1t in the open and backed it up
on the quiet in stronger if less ele-
CANT terms.
If 1 have to spend $4,000 1 will
get that fellow" said Mulvey before he
started after ducks yesterday, and
when he returns he will get ready to
resume his old position in the council
and will doubtless make a fight for
the positions which Dininny says he
Will contest

THE HERADREpuBlcAN SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH.
BOARD FAILS TO
AWARD ANY BIDS
Pat Moran Was Underbid,
Therefore Another Meeting
Will Be Held.

Bids on four improvements were opened
by the board of public works last night,
but no action was taken on any of them
They will all be taken up at a meeting
to be held next Friday night with the
exception Of the bid of zerbe & Walker
for a weir In City Creek canyon, which
was handed over to the city engineer,
George 9. CLANCY, for checking, and will
be considered at a special meeting to-
night as this is work which the city
quantities and figured $3.50 per cubic yard
for excavating, though the board believed
81 would have been ample.
Mayor John s. Bransford attended the
meeting, chiefly in regard to the weir
in City creek and to talk about Install
ing an elevator in the city and county
building, on the city side. This mat
ter, TOO, went over until next Friday

limit of 300 days; p. ]. Moran, Sl64, 1902. IS,
limit $50 days; Bryant-Ford- Mclaughlin
and Barber Asphalt company, Sl73, 663. Al,
limit $50 days. The city engineers esti-
mate for the work was S143, 1855, or about
$4,000 less than the lowest bidder. The
fact that T. J. Moran was unOSTDlO he
&C ssitated a pOstponement in awarding
the contract for a week.
Sewer extension No. 225, South Temple
to Third North street, and Second West
street to the intercepting sewer at Eighth
West street James Kennedy Construc-
ton company, Sl0l, S32O9.

Poor Old China Not Allowed to Sup

Pekin, Nov. British Minister JOr-

raised objection to the manner in
which China is suppressing the opium
traffic. The objection is the result
of the success of the anti opium move
ment in China, which is causing
more rapid decline in the importatiOns
of opium from India than was provided
in the British Chinese agreement of
1907 which contemplated a gradual re-
ductiOn of the importations. Conse-

GAVE HALF TO HIS WIFE
Charleston, w. Va, Man Divided His
Property and Then Disappeared
With His Share.

Charleston, W. Va, Nov. Sc. ].
Goshorn, who disappeared from here
two weeks ago, was one of the best
known business men of the city. A
few days before leaving here he divided
his property, which amounted to $780,
goo. OF this sum he gave his wife
$4,000 and took 600 for himself.
Shortly after he went away his wife
received the Kansas City letter to the
effect that he would never return.
The motive for Goshorn's action is a
mystery. His domestic relations were
apparently happy. There are no chill
dren.
Kansas City, Nov. although there
are several letters and a telegram in
the Kansas City postoffice, addressed
to E. Z. West, general delivery, no
one has called for mail either under
that name or under the name of Z. ].
GoshOrn. Inquiry at the leading hotels
this morning failed to disclose his
presence.
Neither the police of the two Kansas
Cities. nor private detective agencies
have any information regarding the
case.
