Members of the Salt Lake CONNER
cial club traffic bureau held their
first annual meeting last night, the
principal business being the election
Of four directors and the receiving
OF reports from the officers and S. H
Babcock, director of traffic.
The special significance of the
meeting was to demonstrate the fact
that the bureau is past the expert
mental stage and on firm founda-
ton as one of the most important
business associations of the state.
The meeting was well attended and
enthusiastic, and great interest was
manifested in the report of Mr.. Bah
cock on the Utah rate case which is
now In the hands of the interstate
commerce commission, as the result
of nearly twelve months work on
the part of the bureau.
The directors elected were J. G. Nc
Donald of the Mcdonald Chocolate COM
pany, W. +. Bailey of the Smith-Bailey
Drug company; William Bowen. local
manager for Crane & Co. and w. F. Jen-
sen OF the Jensen Creamery company.
Mr. Mcdonald was reelected and the
others succeed B. T. Redman, c. A.
Quigley and c. NJ. Strevell The retiring
directors received a vote of thanks for
their active services In the interest of
the shippers of Utah and, although the
great amount Of work and time demanded
prevented them from accepting Te-elec-
xrrfI1 70
do anything they could in the future
for the success of the bureau.
The bureau decided to hold monthly
meetings of all members in the future
the members - be given sfthir the next
six weeks. The new board of directors
will meet within the next week and elect
officers for the year.
Work Is Reviewed.
s. H. Babcock reviewed the work Of
the bureau in bringing the Utah rate
case before the interstate commerce COM
mission and for the benefit of some of
the members who were unable to attend
the hearing he outlined the case as pre-
sented by G. G. Dey, expressing his con-
fidence that Utah had made its case and
that the decision Of the commission would
undoubtedly be Of great benefit to every
citizen of the state.
Mr.. Babcock told of the first petition
for a fair adjustment of rates that was
made to the presidents of all of the
western railroads and the following of
this by a petition direct to the President
of the United States which resulted in
gaining his direct attention and personal
interest in the case, which was later
turned over to the department of justice
and the interstate commerce commission.
The members of the bureau expressed
their appreciation of the earnest and
capable work of Mr. BaDcock as traffic
director of the bureau and all promised
a continuation of their hearty support
in the movement

GOOD DAY FOR DEFENDANT

Paris, Nov. 8.-With the opening
today of the second week of the trial
of Madame Steinhei, who is accused
Of numbering her husband, Adolphe
Steinheil, and her stepmOther, Mad
anne Japy, the public interest in the
remarkable case is higher than ever.
No direct evidence duplicating the prts-
oner with the crime has yet been adduced,
while the conflicting stories told by the
witness and the brave duel OF the accused
in her fight against the judge is turning
the sympathy in her favor. Madame
SteinheH processes to have the greatest
confidence in her aCquittai.

Madame AtanziO, wife OF one Of Stein

Location Is Fine.

The corner is one of the most important
in the busy banking district. and the pUr
chase by she Salt Lake Security & Trust
company Is recognized as good one, the
property having increased greatly in
value during the few months since the
sale was cOnsummated.
The Salt Lake Security & Trust com
pany owns the Salt Lake Security &
Trust building, a five-stOry structure at
Nos. 1924 South Main street, which it
occupies at present, using two floors of
the structure. 1t recently constructed
fine safe deposit vaults at a cost of $40.
900, and has been perfectly satisfied with
the upper Main street location, but finds
that it is crowded for room. The com
pany has a capital and surplus of 100000
and about two and one-quarter millions
assets. and on account of the increasing
business, having % employees, has been
compelled to look for quarters where it
could take care of its expanding business.
The Salt Lake Security & Trust COM
pany was established in 1856. Its first To-
cation was in the old Atlas block, and,
after being burned out, it sought a Main
street location.
The matter has not progressed far
enough to give any idea as TO the nature
Of the plans for the structure which is
contemplated on the corner. 1t is likely
that the bank will occupy two or three
floors of the new skyscraper which will
be one Of the most substantial structures
on this busy thOroughfare.

The plan of the purchaser. which will be
carried out. 1t is said, at no far distant
date, is to erect d ten-story modern sky
scraper on the corner. in which it will
find a home for its rapidly increasing
business
There have been many reports con-
corning the identity of the buyers, since
the sale was contaminated, one of the
most persistent reports being to the eff
feet that the property had been bought
by the 4. g. NJ. l. The discovery of the
identity of the purchaser was made known
incidental TO the payment of the taxes
on the property this fall.
The property has a frontage on Main
street of 31la feet, and extends back 9ll2
feet on West First South street. The
building, a fOur-story brown stone, is
known as the Emporium block, and was
erected in 1864. having been the home of
the Utah National bank for many years.
The fact that the sale was made subject
to an eight years lease held by the Utah
National indicates that the work of erect
ing a new skyscraper will not be taken
up at once.

ANCIENT CHINESE CLOCK.

The most interesting of all water
clocks is undoubtedly the copper jars
dropping water" in Canton, China,
where l saw it in 1897. Referring to
the simple line sketch, which l make
from memory, Figure 8, and reading
four Chinese characters downward the
translation is Canton City" To the
left and still downward-"Ho et-
low" which is Copper jars dropping
water" Educated Cinnamon inform
me that it is over 5000 years old and
had weather vane. AS they speak
of it as "the clock OF the street arch"
this would look quite probable; since
the little open building, or tower in
which 1t stands is higher than sur
rounding buildings. 1t is therefore
reasonably safe to state that the Chi
nese had weather and time station
1000 years before our era. 1t consists
of four copper jars partially built In
masonry forming a stair-like structure.
Commencing at the top jar each one
drops into the next downward till the
water reaches the solid bottom jar In
this lowest one a float, "the bamboo
stick" is placed and indicates the
height of the water and thus in rude
way gives the time. 1t is said to be
set morning and evening by dipping
the water from Jar to Jar 1, so II
runs twelve hours of our time What
are the uses of Jars and 8, since
the water simply enters them and
drips out again?-Popular Mechanics.
