Been Completed on S. P.
Early Today.

PASSENGER TRAINS HAVE BEEN
DEToUHED PAST TWO DAYS.

Beginning at o'clock this morning
train service over the Lucin cutoff
will be resumed, and for the first time
In forty-eight hours Southern Pacific
trains will rot be obliged to take. the
old route.
It will take 10000 carloads OF ballast
TO repair the damage of the Sunday
morning storm on the CUTOFF, accord
ing to Southern Pacific officials at Og-
den.
Indefinitely late is the order of all
train schedules over the Southern Pa
cific, and the operating officials have
abandoned all attempts to make regu-
lar connections All traffic is being
detoured around the lake. taking five
hours longer to make the trip than by
the eut-oft route, thus demoralizing
schedules.
The repairs will be temporary crib
bling, but VIII suffice for the present,
so that passenger trains can be run
over the lake with absolute security
while permanent repairs are being
made. Much OF the freight business
Will have to be detoured for at least
two weeks.
Official advices were lacking In the
Oregon Short Line offices yesterday as
to the full extent of the loss and dam
age, but ii is thought TO have been less
than during the storm of a week ago.
Since early Sunday morning a large
crew of men with construction trains
cribbing and making temporary re-
pairs.
While delayed, trains were not aban-
doned, owing TO the fact that the old
Central Pacific line north of the lake
was in condition to be used.
J. NJ. Davis, general superintendent
Of the Oregon Short Line, who has been
at the scene of the washout since early
Sunday morning, wired his office in
Salt Lake yesterday afternoon that No.
g. WeStbOund out of Ogden, would move

ing.
Anything like definite information as
to the full extent OF the damage to the
Western Pacific tracks Is not obtain
able For a stretch OF fourteen miles
extending from Garfield to Grants, viz
tually the entire track will have TO be
reconstructed as a result Of the storm.
The Western Pacific bad Just recovered

MUCH TESTIMONY
IS D|SCRED|TED
Witness for Coalition Contra
diets Statements of Other
Employees.

At yesterdays hearing before Spe-
cial Examiner j. w. Christie in the
suit of the Silver King Consolidated
Mining company against the Silver
King Coalition Mining company, the
plaintiffs attorneys placed on the
stand James Mara. an employee OF the
defendant company. who had been sub
poenaed as a result Of the testimony
last week of joseph Kemp. At that
time Kemp, who was one of the plain
titfS witnesses, testified that ne was
placed at the stope in the mine in COM
pany with James Mara, who is still
employed by the defendant company
His testimony, which took up the
greater part of the day, was q direct
contradiction of the testimony of all
of the mine workers placed on the
stand by the Coalition company. Mara
testified that he has been working for
the Coalition for the past twelve years,
and that he VS. stu an employe of the
company. He further testified that he
was put to work in the stope in con-
troversy on the third floor at the east
end That there was a face of ore eX-
ending across for thirty feet, at this
point, composed of very heavy galena
ore, which was sent out of the stope
as first-class ore, and that he carried
the sets up until they had reached a
height of five sets, over 1,2O0-fOOt
level, at which height the ore body
WGs fourteen feet in width.
It was further testified that the ore
was taken out of the stope by means
of a raise at the east end. In this
connection all witnesses for the de-
PENDANT company had testified that the
highest part OF the stope was three
sets. and this raise which Mara testi-
fled was used for dumping ore had
never been used for that purpose.
After working in that part of the mine.
said Mara. he was sent TO the center
slope and off to the north side, where
he was placed sc work stopping In q
heavy galena of first-class ore. Three
years following this, the witness tes-
titled, ana when the upper part of the
stope had been completely excavated,
he was placed at work by Frank Daley.
the foreman Of the Coalition company,
beneath the old stope, and in what is
termed the brown stope, to clear up
all the first-class ore, which was then
showing in streaks along the wall.
His directions from Daley were to
gouge out all of the first-elass ore.
Later on, according to his testimony,
he was placed at work at the west end
OF the stope in drift containing first
class ore. That while working In the
stope he received directions from
Daley TO be careful Of the ore he was
working on and send it out as first
class.
The direct examination of Mara had
just been completed at adjournment
The witness will be cross-examined
today.

working staff of the board Of park COM
missichers. A. NJ. Hotter has resigned
as florist in Liberty park, and his let
ter, ending his services. will be re-
ceived by the board today. For several
years Hotter has been In charge of the
greenhouses at Liberty park and of the
flowers throughout the grounds. He
was in this work during the former
regime of Nicholas Byhower as super

signing at that time. At the last meet
ing of the park board Mr.. Byhower
was given authority to do as he pleased
in regard to Hotter. and the result Is
the resignation Of the florist.

Hotter allowed the fires to go out at
the greenhouses in Liberty park, caus-
ing damage among the flowers and also
that the florist was lately paying too

he has recently constructed a few

a pole at Fifth East street and First
avenue late yesterday afternoon, Robert
Smith, 1904 South Fourth East street,
an Inspector for the Bell Telephone
company was rendered semi-uncon-
scious by an electric shock. Charles
Guest, an assistant, climbed the pole
in an attempt TO disengage him. smith
proved too heavy and fell to the
ground. a distance of twenty feet.
Smith was taken TO St. Marks hos
pital, where an examination revealed
that he had merely. sustained bruises
and that he had not been burned from
the electric current. 1t is expected that
he win speedily recover.
1t is the theory of telephone officials
that the telephone wires became en-
tangled with lighting wires during the
recent windstorm. For two days all
telephone lines about Fifth East and
First avenue have been out of order
and Smith was assigned to investigate.

TO Wooden Poles.

Property owners along Ninth East
street will meet tonight at the Thirty
first ward meeting house 70 let the
council know Just how they feel about
allowing the Utah Light & Railway
company to place large wooden poles
at the sides of the street. on which to
carry the high tension wires OF the
company. The property owners ap-
peared in rather formidable force at
council COMMITTEES meetings last Thurs
day night and then after expressing
rather forcibly, broke UP
and arranged for the mass meeting to-
night, when some resolutions will like
ly be drawn up TOR presentation to the
council.
1t is claimed that the Utah Light &
Railway company can use the steel
poles. as has been done on other
streets, and that the high tension wires
can be brought into Salt Lake on some
other streets, where the wooden poles
are now standing. The committee APP
pointed last Thursday night to see
about getting a right-ofway west of
Ninth East street, where the alleys
should be. will. report that this cannot
be done. but still the property owners
will, II IS believed. demand that tbs
large wooden poles go out and that the
smaller iron poles be substituted
