A BIG SENSATION Is
CAUSED BY
ARREST
Inx Associated Press. ]

bE ASSOCidtfu
Salt Lake, March Thames
Christensen. former state treasurer
of Utah, and prominent republican
politician, was taken into custody
early this morning following his con-
fession of the responsibility for a
shortage of s70.62S.00 in the state
treasury.
He acknowledged that the money
was used in speculation in mining
ventures near Virginia City, Nevada.
Christensen was state treasurer for
four years his term ending January
/. 1909.
The shortage in his accounts was
discovered a few days ago through
checking up of accounts by the state
board of examiners. At the time
Christensen was in Nevada. In re-
sponse to a telegram he returned to
this city and admitted the shortage.
The amount of shortage will be made
good to the state by his bondsmen.
Upon relinquishing the office as
state treasurer Christiansen acted as
temporary deputy for the state audi
tor, and II was discovered last week
that an item of the auditors book
charging Salt Lake county with
$16S,000 had been tampered with
and an attempt made TO make the
amount SI0S.O00 instead had been
made. An investigation followed
which fixed the responsibility for the
shortage on Christiansen.

THE WORK
i N D E R
WAY

This morning at o'clock. as per
announcement made yesterday by
The Sentinel twenty men under
Foreman Cogan, We're started on the
actual construction of the Grand
Junction electric railway. A spur
from the lots where the rails, poles.
etc, are stored was built to the front
of the car barn on South. All day
hundreds of spectators lined the
walks and watched the working men,
and late this afternoon as the first
car, a plain construction flat car,
was placed on the rails many of the
watchers stepped forwarded and
Tended their assistance, for the pur-
pose of saying that they helped put
the first car on the rails.
About clock G. G. Boyer, who
has the excavating contract, started
his men to work and a block on South
avenue was plowed up thus making
a gang of about 35 men at work. In
the morning or on Monday the pole
men and a larger crew of laborers
will be taken on and the building of
the line will have begun at full speed.
Engineer Allan has given Mr.. Boyer
full power to employ any number of
men he wishes and as soon as the
work can be strung out seventy or
eighty men will be employed and the
work progressing rapidly. The ex-
preston of the public is that -
looks good to us and we hope that
nothing will turn up to hinder them
