Alma o. Taylor and Fred Game
Young men of Salt Lake City, arrived
Yesterday on the Manchuria from Yo

of weeks the guests of Bishop Wool
ley of the Mormon church. The young
men are returning home from an eight
years mission IN Japan, one Of the
longest terms of service required Of the
missionaries of their church.
One of the reasons why Mr.. Taylor
has been in Japan so long is because
he has been engaged in the translation
Of the Book Of Mormon into the Jap
anese language. The task has taken
eight years. although of course, the
first two wears Of his residence IN Jap
an were devoted to learning the Ian
guage., In his work he has been as
sisted by Mr.. Caine.
The Young men were met at the wharf
yesterday by Bishop Wo6lley and Mrs.
smith, wife of young member of the
hurch, and other Salt Lake people.

pened, as Milverton objected to the
questions asked him by Thompson and
was sustained by the court. Thompson
wanted to examine Gilman as to the
statements IN his affidavit that he is
the sole representative IN Honolulu Of
the bituhthic paving company, but
wasn't allowed to do so.
Milverton 5 contention IS that Lord
has not shown that he is an injured
party, and that Lord has no special in,
terest in the case. Milverton also
claims that bitulithic. being a patented
pavement, nothing could be gained by
advertising for bids for laying it. as
only one agent has any right to do so
He also contends that the law specif
cally proves that in eases where there
is no competition. il is not necessary tC
advertise for bids.
The hearing was not finished yester
day and was continued until today.
