quarter inch steel rods laid nine
inches apart This large concrete
steel structure is then filled with
gravel from the river. making a fin
ished gravel roadway or viaduct The
great advantage of this is that all
maintenance cost, except slight work
on the roadway. is avoided. There
will be no floor to repair, no painting
to do, no rivets or ironwork to re-
place.
These completed plans will be on
exhibition at the board of trade room
today so that all taxpayers may view
them and understand the exceedingly
permanent, substantial and thorough
character of this proposed work.
The total cost OF this bridge will
be approximately $4,000, of which
S55, 600 would have to be borne by
the taxpayers, the balance to be do
mated by those particularly benefited
by the building Of this bridge.
OF the competency of the National
Bridge company to fill its engage
ments there can be no doubt as it is
the biggest concern OF the sort in the
country, and there are available for
the inspection of those interested, pic
lures Of scores of concrete steel
bridges they have constructed in re-
shapes. Their structures are artistic
as well as engineering masterpieces
and should they build the Salt. River
bridge the work would certainly meet
with general approval

GERMAN SOCIALISTS
RECEIVE A THREAT
They Are Warmed That Their Aeita-
ton Must Be Restrained.

Berlin, March 3O.-Chancellor Won
Buelow, during the reichstag debate
on the salary appropriation today.
made a brilliant speech, discussing
internal policies The chancellor re-
piled with masterful thrusts to the
attacks made upon him by his oppo-
nents- He denied in the most abso-
lutte terms the existence Of a camaril-
la around the emperor, declaring that
with such a straightforward man as
the emperor, intriguers could not ex-
ercise any influence
The chancellor earnestly warned the
socialists against disorderly agita-
tions, saying that if it became neces-
sary, a much stricter law would be
introduced for their suppression.

slider.

Reno, March 3O.-Judge II. +. Bar
tine chairman of the Nevada railroad
commission. and Frank McCune. ex-
pert accountant Of Spokane rate fame.
We're the only witnesses examined be-
fore Special Examiner Lyon Of the
Interstate Commerce Commission. in
the Nhvada rate hearing case this
morning. Examiner Lyon asked Judge
Bartir why the railroads east Of Og-
den and salt Lake were not included
with the Southern Pacific company as
defendants.
Judge Bartine answered that these
roads had nothing to do with the back
haul charged by the Southern Pacific
from san Francisco to Reno. and that
all that Nevada contends for is the
same rate from ogden to Reno. as ex-
lists between Ogden and San Francisco.
Mr.. Lyon remarked that il was doubt
full if the Interstate Commerce Com
mission would make a ruling reducing
this rate but he would proceed to take
the testimony. Judge Bartine answer
ed that the Nevada commission was
willing to take its chances with the
Interstate Commerce Commission.
McCune's testimony had to do with
rate figures that he had compiled.
Thirty-two exhibits consisting mainly
Of rate tables were introduced.
II is expected that the hearing will
be completed by tomorrow night. In
order to prevent Nevada losing the
case through technicaIities. Judge Bar
tine and Attorney General Stoddsrd,
who are conducting Nevada's case an
nounced this afternoon that they will
include the trunk railroads operating
east OF ogden as defendants They
are confident that Nevada will win and
they say they expect a favorable rul-
ing from the Interstate Commerce
Commission within eight months

JAPAN SURPRISED At CHINA
"Malign Influences" Must
Have Been at Work On
Her Neighbor to Bring a
Suggestion to Submit Diff
ferences to Arbitration.

Toxic, March 30.-Answering a re-
Of the government concerning China's
proposal that the Manchurian ques-
tions be referred to The Hague, the
foreign office today gave out the fol-
lowing carefully worded statement;
Several questions between Japan and
China Of more or less Importance,
with reference to Manchuria, remain
unadjusted. Some are complicated,
but all readily could be made to yield
to the diplomatic process of give and
take
Japan, fully appreciating the ad-
vantages of removing all causes Of
from her relations
with her neighbor, has made prOpO-
sails which were framed in a spirit of
consideration and Cancellation, and
were in no sense an ultimatum. ia
pan expected that the terms offered
would serve as a basis of negotiation.
or as points Of departure for recipro-
cal concessions and accommodations.
China at first apparently accepted
Japan's friendly overtures in the
spirit in which they were rendered,
but malign influences ultimately were
permitted to prevail, and without
the questions or making
any counter proposals, China cate
gorically rejected Japan's offer and
suggested recourse to The Hague
In adopting this extraordinary
course, China Is guilty not only Of
slight courtesy to Japan, but has dis
regarded one Of the expressed provi-
sions Of The Hague tribunal and has
reversed the usual course
Of procedure.
In the present case the resources
Of diplomacy have not only not been
exhausted. but they have not even
been appealed to.
1T is, therefore. extremely unfor-
tunate that China has allowed herself
to be persuaded TO make the wholly
suggestion. Of arbitra-
