ASKS FOR Cash;
GETS A CUTTING
Victim Refuses to Prosecute
ASSaiIant, but Police Judge
Holds Him.

Julian Alexander, jewelry salesman
for the Colonial Jewelry company, 1856
South Main street, was stabbed in the
back. over the heart ana in the left hand
at $3.50 o'clock last night, while in front
of the Bristol cafe. His assaiIant was
Henry Cohan, who has worked as clerk
in numerous jeWelry stores about the
city. Alexander claims that Cohan at
tackled him with knife when Alexander
asked for remittance on a recent cash
loan.
When Conan had stabbed Alexander
with the four-inch dirk knife he car
ried, which is now in the hands of the
police he made a dash down Main
street in the direction of the Boston
building. Alexander waved his bleed
ing left hand in the air and yelled
"Murderr and a hotel porter, a waiter
and two pedestrians pursued Conan and
stopped him. Conan was taken to pO-
lice headquarters by PatrOlman James
Davidson.
Though dangerous in their appear
ance, the wounds Cohan inflicted on
Alexander are not serious The first
entered the left thigh, the second cut a
cash about two inches in length i'm the
middle of the back between the shout
ders, the third was stopped by a rib
directly over the heart, and the fourth
nearly severed the left thumb of the
salesman. Had the knife thrusts been
accompanied by greater force, it is the
belief of the police that Alexander
would have been killed.
When Police Surgeon S. G. Paul had
examined AleXander's wounds, he adj
vised his patient that there was little
danger, and the latter recovered. his
strength. Alexander left the operating
room at police headquarters, assisted
by two friends.
Alexander told the police that Cohan
was a friend of his, and advised that
he would not prosecute. He said that
COhan had owed him $3.50 a little long
er than he thought proper and that he
had asked him for the money when he
encountered him in front Of the res
taurant.
Judge J. NJ Bowman was telephoned
that Alexander did not want to enter
complaint, and he ordered it made a city
case, and ordered that Conan be held
on $3.50 bonds.

MOVE FOR PURE FOOD MISS SALOON LICENSES
City Veterinarian Suggests Equip
ment Of Psychological Labo-
tory.

As a further step toward insuring pure
food and milk in Salt Lake, the estab-
lishment Of a small ARCHAEOLOGICAL labor
atory under Dr. J. W fireman. city vet
erinarian, is now being discussed and will
likely be one of the first moves made in
the pure food line by the city council
after the first Of the year. DR.. fireman
has told members of the council who
have been interested in his new plan that
1t would cost less than 500 for the start
ing Of laboratory on a small scale.
There are several sman OFFICES in the
city and county building which could be
used for laboratory, and it may be that
one on the fifth floor Of the building
viii be selected.
Dr. fireman has had a rather varied ex-
perlence in meteorological work, and de-
claTes 1t would be a great aid to the meat
inspection, inspection of small markets
and milk dealers if the additional ex-
pense be made. The work would be done
under the veterinarian with his other
duties

County Collections Cut Down by Re-
cent Incorporation Of
Midvale.

Because citizens Of Bingham Junction
got together and Incorporated as a town
under the name of ATidvale, Salt Lake
county has lost more than 81 900 from sa-
loon licenses. This is shown IN the an
nual report Of Alex. Buchanan, IT,, C6un-
ty license collector, which was finished
yesterday. There were y saloons in
Bingham Junction, and when this went
from under control of the county COM
missiOners the saloon licenses were lost.
The comparative statement of licenses
collected for the two years shows 1909
has a net loss Of 81, 450.16. The lass from
liquor licenses was S1,5S191, but there was
gain during the year of S13175 from
merchant licenses Issued. This gain is
shown in spite of the fact that with the
u saloon licenses, 80 merchants and
butchers licenses were also taken from
the county when Midvaie came into be-
ing and Bingham Junction became a place
of history.
Collections for the year from the differ
ent licenses are: Liquor. for 1908, S24,I0l.11;
for 1903, S22,5l9.20, or a loss Of S1,52I 81 for
the year. In 1908 the collections from
merchants and butchers licenses were
S5,l@.S, and during 1909 they were 1922,
or gain for 1909 of sl31.75. The loss of
the saloons at Midvale represented two
tifths Of all the saloons under county
control.

CLUB COMMITTEE
WINED AND DINED
Progressive and Enthusiastic
Boosters Promise Member
ship of 200 Soon.

Just what the Commercial club thinks
of its membership committee. the
workers who accomplished in three
days the task allotted to them for three
weeks, was manifested in a compH-
mentary luncheon given yesterday
noon. It required over three hours for
the club, represented by its president,
secretary and members of the board of
governors, TO express the appreciation
through feasting and congratulatory
remarks, but so thorough was the ap-
probation, and so invigorating the
luncheon, that before it was over the
membership committee felt chesty.
Through its chairman, c.. A. Quigley,
the committee refused to admit that
they had done anything wonderful in
bringing the membership of the club up
TO 1000 in three or four days, and then
passing the mark by an even sixty up
to Saturday noon. "PshaW, that's Moth
ing" said Chairman Quigley, "and te
prove it, now that we have a few days
grace and time to work, Wen just go
out and get some more. Wen give you
a total membership of 1900 as a Christ
mas present"
AtC AuAlCuEDI klNEu the membership
committee developed more spirited en-
thusiasm than any affair I'm the recent
years of the club. Tt was attended by
the following members of the member
ship committee: c. A. Quigley, chair
man. B. f. Redman, d. G. Bolton. W
E. Bailey, g. F. Merrill, J. NJ. Marriott,
Leon Sweet +. S. Murphy. d. S. Spen-
Ger, George d. Alder, nj. H. Desky, O.
r. Meredith, A. J. Davis, w. A. Lieb-
leln, Arthur l. Thomas, +. G. Rich
mOnd and +. L. WhitwOTth. Repre-
senting the club as hosts were w. j.
HallOran, president; Joseph E. Game
secretary; H. L. A. Culmer, H. p. Clark,
members of the board of governors, and
c. c. Goodwin, honorary member.
During the luncheon. there was a con-
slant fire of witty, felicitOus and more
serious speeches, the climax being
reached when Chairman Quigley, in
spirited response 10 the congratulations,
announced that his committee had not
finished its work yet, but now that lee
way had been given, they would bring
in applications sufficient to make the
total membership on Christmas day
200.
The table decorations for the luncheon
had as the central piece a mass Of holly.
with the figures 1000 formed Of red car
nations showing strikingly in the
banked green. Chairman Quigley wants
that centerpieCe preserved until Christ
mas day. when he viii substitute for
the first cipher
During the meeting a resolution was
adopted recommending to the board of
governors that on January 1, 1910, the
membership fee should be increased TO
500. a second resolution recommend /
ed that the annual banquet Of the club,
usually held during the latter week Of
December, shall be given some time In
the month of January.
