outs are heard from surrounding towns.
From Canon City comes the report of
another clOudburst at -Four Mile creek,
yesterday afternoon, which again trans
formed the stream into raging torrent
and sWelled the river at that point Much
rain has fallen there and in the surround
ing mountains during the last twenty
four hours.
An additional thousand feet Of the Den
yer & Rio Grande tracks through the
gorge were rendered unsafe by the heavy
rains last night and the big masonry re-
tanning wall owned by the company was
badly damaged. A force Of 800 men has
been at work day and night in the gorge
since the flood damage, Tuesday night,
but it will be several days before nor
NAL traffic can be resumed The gorge
itself is a mass of tangled debris. The
famous hanging bridge is covered with
sand and debris three feet deep.
Both the Denver & Rio Grande and the
Colorado Midland are operating trains
west of Leadville, but regular traffic has
not been resumed. Yesterday the river
at Florence washed out 100 yards of re-
enforcement embankment below the head
gates of the Union ditch. It has been
raining there almost constantly for the
past tWenty-four hours.

agricultural and horticultural products,
and committees will be named in short
time to make the exhibit as attractive as
possible. No one section of the state Will
be more favored than the other, but the
whole will be grouped in an array which,
it is hoped, will surpass that of any other
Most western states have made arrange
ments for exhibits at the exposition.
Governor Spry will meet with Fisher
Harris, secretary of the Salt Lake Com
merCial club, today, for the purpose Of
getting into communication with all Of
the other commercial clubs in the state. A
cash expenditure Of about s. 800 is antic-
ipated for the exhibit, and an effort will
be made to have the legislature of 1911 re-
fund the money spent for this purpose.

HALF MILLION IS
ESTIMATED LOSS
Railroads Suffer From Wash
outs and Tourists Are Ma
rO0ned.
TRACK DAMAGE is REPAIRED
ALL COLORADO ROADS ARE STILL
MORE OR LESS TIED UP.

Denver, Aug 20.-Damage to Colorado
railroads caused by rains and floods Of
the last few days will reach $4,000, ac-
cOrding to estimates by local railroad
men. Nearly all the roads are still more
or less tied up, with fully 1000 tourists
marOoned along the lines of the Denver
& Rio Grande, Santa Fe, Colorado Mid
land and Colorado & Southern.
The half-million-dOliar loss to the rail-
roads includes not only damage to tracks,
bridges and roadbeds, but also the finan-
ciel loss through delayed business and
extra work and expense in making de
tours.
At about s o'clock this morning the
Denver & Rio Granda brought in nearly
800 passengers over the Union Pacific,
and their coast trains went out over the
same route last night and this morning.
At least 500 tourists. many of them re-
turning from the Grand Army encamp-
ment at Salt Lake. are reported marOOned
at Sdlidd and Canon City. while many
more are held up at LCadville, GIenWood
Springs and western slope points The
South Park branch of the Colorado q
Southern is reported to have suffered
much and COnSidera BILE delay was caused
for time. Tt is said, however that near
~ all the track damage has been re-
paired and all the Clear Creek trains are
operating on regular schedule
The Colorado q Southern tracks and
bridges in the vicinity Of Trinidad were
either badly damaged OF swept away, and
the Santa Fe depot there had narrow
escape from being washed away. The main
line of the Colorado q Southern is also
broken about thirty-miles north of Trini-
dad at place called Mayne.
The worst damage TO the Colorado Mid
land was on both sides of Ute pass, near
Cascade, and all passenger trains We're
held up there. Yesterday the line was
re-established long enough to get two
trains through, but additional washouts
stopped traffic again last night.

Wreck at Tucker.

Whitewater Colo, Aug. 20.-Passengers
arriving in Grand Junction yesterday on
Denver &, Rio Grande No. from Salt
Lake, tell Of an accident at Tucker Utah,
that might well have resulted in a worse
wreck than that at Hustled. The con-
ductor and fireman OF a freight train
sideuacl1ed at that point undertook to
water and coal their engine in the alb
sence Of the engineer, who was at lunch.
Returning to their train by the way of
the main line, their engine crashed into
No. z from the west.
The three engines of No z, as well as
that of the freight, were deTailed and
badly wrecked. There were more than
300 passengers on No. Z, but no one was
hurt, the slow speed of the passenger
train being the only thing that pre-
vented "a catastrophe The tTainmen were
injured slightly.

Blockade Is Raised.

Salida, Colo, Aug 20.-The blockade on
the Rio Grande was raised this noon,
after three days without trains between
Salida and Pueblo. This morning the Of
ficials announced that no more trains
would be sent over the narrow gauge,
as the flooded tracks We're about ready
for traffic. Train after train, only ten
minutes apart, are taking the marOOned
passengers out.
This is the longest tie-up in the his
tory of the Rio GTande in many years.
The river at this point has subsidized and
1t is considered that all danger is past.

Flood in Platte River.

Denver, Aug. 2O-The flood in the
Platte river, because of the breaking of
the dam on Lake Georgia, fizzled out
in a siX-inCh stream this morning. Fears
for the safety of the Chessman dam
proved groundless and that structure held
back the OUtpOur from Lake Georgia with
out straining any section.
The water in the Platte was high yes
terday and last night on account Of
Cloudbursts on tributary streams, but no
damage was done. Railroad traffic west
of Pueblo is still tied up and anything
like schedule time will not be possible
inside of a week

COMES AT CLOSE
OF LONG MEETING
Continued from PAGE 1.

Office of justice of the peace, later Civ
ing up active campaigning for law
practice. His Office is in room sol, Des-
eret News Annex.
All of the members Of the Juvenile
court commission were present: Gov
ernOr William SpTy, a. c. Nelson, state
superintendent of public instruction,
and Albert r. Barnes, attorney general.
John K. Hardy, Governor Spry's secre-
tary, acted as secretary of the meeting,
as NJ. A. Breeder, secretary of the COM
mission, was a candidate for the Office
OF Juvenile court judge. Another meet
ing of the commission will be held upon
the return Of Governor Spry from Seat
tie later in the month, at which time
Mr.. McMaster will be called in and the
policies of the commission explained in
the handling of juvenile court cases.
Mr.. McMaster will probably be officially
notified today of his appointment to the
judgeship.
while the appointment comes to me
as a surprise, it is none the less gratify~
ing to me-" said Mr.. McMaster last
night. Il have taken a keen interest in
juvenile court work from the outside,
though ! have never been actively in
terested in this work in the juvenile
court. My name was proposed by my
friends for the position, and 1 have
them to thank for the appointment.
Since my name was proposed, I have
made a close study of the juvenile laws
of Utah. both the old and the new, and
believe the new are nearly a model 1
have been a Sunday school man most of
my life and have, therefore, had much
to do with children. My interest is
with them, and I feel that I can do
much for them. 7 feel keenly for the
unfortunate boys and girls who fall into
bad ways, and viii do everything 1 can
to helm them.

Corporation Tax Law.

Corporation Tax Law.
With the enactment of the corporation
tax law, which requires of all corpora
tons annual reports concerning their
business, which the stockholders and cred
itOrs are entitled to know the attorney
general believes that a national incor-
pOratiOn law should logically follow.
President Taft seems inclined to share
this belief, and it may safely be pre-
dicted that the annual message in DeCem-
Der viii urge congress to enact legisla-
ton along these lines.
The president is committed, it can also
be said, to an amendment to the inter-
state commerce act legalizing traffic
agreements among the railroads, provid-
ing they are approved by the interstate
commerce commission. And this also will
be embodied in the recommendations to
congress.
A third reform upon which the presi-
dent is determined and which perhaps is
the greatest of all three named and is
Cies. is the prevention of the OvercapitaI-
ization Of corporations engaged in inter
state commerce. To accomplish this re-
form the president aims at a law which
shall forbid the issue in future of stocks
or bonds by an interstate corporation I'M
less such issue is first approved by the
interstate commerce commission or some
other designated federal authority.
Competing Railroads.
And in line with this is the presidents
desire to make It unlawful for an inter
state railway to acquire stock in a COM
petng line, These last named evils, in
fact, are grouped by the president In his
description Of the proposed reforms, and
II can be said on good authority that he
aims to strike at both Of them in the
bills that viii be submitted to congress
in his message outlining the corporate
evils and the remedies that are proposed
for them
In connection with the plan to empower
Na.Na -nf -
proposed issues Of stocks or bonds by
interstate corporations, it has been sug-
gested by the president himself that
through such legislation the much-dis-
cussed physical valuation Of railways
might not only become necessary, but
easy Of accomplishment.

Devote lime to Work.

L intend to give my whole time to
this work. 1t is a cause which appeals
to me, and I cannot give too much to
direct Maynard boys and girls to the
right path There is a big field here
for the right man, and, if I am the right
man-which is my hope-then I can do
much for the community. 1t will be my
ambition to develop here in Salt Lake
one of the best juvenile court systems
in the country"
The appointment of Mr.. McMaster
came as a surprise to the many people
who have been so intensely interested
in the fight for the judgeship, owing to
the fact that his name has hardly been
mentioned as in the race. 1t was not
much of a surprise to his friends, how
ever as they have maintained all along
that he is the man for the place, and
have evidently put up convincing ar
guments to members Of the commission.
The fight seemed to center between J.
Fred Anderson and Harry S. Harper
but after the long meeting Friday Mr.
McMaSter was selected. He had been
called to the office of Governor Spry
twice during the last two weeks, as
were other candidates, to talk over
their views of handling the juveniles.
The resignation of Judge +. c.
GOwans as judge of the juvenile court
Of Salt Lake was received by Governor
Spry Thursday, to take effect Aug. 81
and on the next day Judge GOwans will
enter upon his duties as superintend-
ent of the state industrial school at Og-
den. This will fall in with his line of
work in the juvenile court and will en-
able Judge GOwans and Judge McMas-
ter to work together in the interest Of
the boy who has started wrong.
Ever since it became known, more
than month ago, that Judge Gowans
would fill the UpeTintendency at the
Ogden school, there has been no end Of
speculation as. to who would succeed
him as juvenile court judge. and the
friends of each candidate worked tire
lessly with members Of the commission
for their favOrites.
There VIII be neither politics nor re-
ligiOn in my handling of the office"
said Mr.. McMaster last night 81 will
be there to help the boys and girls
whose wrongdoings bring them before
me, and they will get my entire atten-
ton and energy"
Judge McMaster Will start upon his
work as judge of the Salt Lake court
after Sept, ].
