SHUBERTs HERE TO STAY.
Rumor That Main Street House Is 10
Be Abandoned Is Denied.

The Shubert theatrical syndicate Is
in Salt Lake to stay. The rumor that
the Main street playhouse would be
abandoned because of troubles in Den
yer and inability to locate property in
San Francisco. was given It's auietus
this morning by both Manager Frank
Bacon and Charles H. Wells. assistant
cashier of the Utah National bank,
who is heavily interested In the ven
ture.
The show house on south Main
street is still going to have its doors
OPEN said Mr.. Wells this morning.
He expressed much astonishment at
the rumor which has been spread about
theatrical circles that the Shuberts
have abandoned the local field and re-
tired from their invasion of the west
There Is absolutely nothing to it,
said Mr.. Wells. We have been pre-
sentlng some of the very best produc-
tionS of the year at the Shubert, and
while we have not been able TO I'LL UP
every date, we have not billed any
thing which was not OF the highest
class And we are going to keep up
the standard which has been set, We
are having a hard fight against the
syndicate, which practically controls
all of the playhouses of the country,
W
bert theater will continue to present
everything that the big men In the
east can send us and we have some-
thing UP our sleeves for the remaining
few months of the season which will
make an epoch in Salt Lake theatrical
history"
Frank Bacon. manager OF the thea
ter, corroborated the predictions of Mr.
Wells and. while he maintained an air
Ixt tte<l, 70 ftrff me =.
that the Shuberts were planning some
thing which Will make the west sit UP
and take notice There Is going TO be
something doing" said the local man
ager. "Just what 1t is l am not at
liberty to say at the present time. but
when you think that the Shubcrts are
quitting Salt Lake You have another
guess coming. The Shuberts are her
to stay and when the wheat
threshed from the chaff there Will BE-
residue which will be hailed by
Salt Lake theater-goers with great q.
light"
Mr Wells said that the relinquis.i-
ment Of the present Denver theater by
the Shuberts had no significance with
regard to the invasion OF the west. III
Is simply a business proposition, he
said. "a change from one place to an
other Denver will have one OF the
finest theaters IN tne country S"n-
trolled by the Shuberts and this is in
line with what is going to be done In
Salt Lake
Roth Mr.. Wells and Mr. Bacon
turned their thumbs down when the
now thcatcr on Exchange place was
mentioned. Both said that the Shu-
berts would have nothing to do with
the Morris house. An impression was
conveyed that the Shuberts would eth
er take over and remodel one OF the
present theaters or build n fine new
place OF their own. But both men, ana
others interested In the local end OF
Tho Shubert venture, said that the
Shuberts were here to stay.

Cannot Accept American Wishes
In Various Respects, Especially
Concerning Meat.
REALIZES GRAVITY OF CASE.
Were Government Disposed to Make
Concessions, the Reichstag
Would Not Acquicsce.

Berlin, Jan. 1S.-The German GOV
ernment today cabled to Washington
q reply to a memorandum recently re-
ceived from the United States In rela-
tion to the tariff on shipments between
the two countries. While it does not
accept the American wishes In various
respects and especially concerning the
sponse Is sent in the hope that 1t will
be satisfactory and as all that the
German government can do.
The reply was dispatched with a
certain feeling of gravity because Of
the feeling that Germany can do no
more, and must be prepared for trade
hostilities should the United States,
unhappiy, insist or moro than Ger
many accords to the other countries.
Chancellor Won Bethmann- -Hollwes
and his associates. the imperial minis
tcrs, appear Convinced that the COM
bined Conservative, Center and Ma
tlonal-Iiberal parties OF the reichstag
would block the way to any departure
from the present laws covering the i'm
portation OF meats.
The government has received the
opinions OF the leaders of the parties
and. moreover, has gathered widely tho
Views OF manufacturing interests. Even
were the government disposed to ac-
cept the American contentious in their
entirety there does not appear to oe
the least possibility that the reichstag
would pass the legislation and listen
TO the modification of a German law.
II is cited at this time that In pro-
mulgating the German-American tariff
agreement in 1907 President Roosevelt
stated that Germany was giving to the
United States more than she was re-
ceiving.
It is further pointed out that now tho
American tariff revision having been
made. as Is constantly asserted In all
quarters, with the design Of limiting
German trade with the United States
and a request being made that Ger
many shall make further impossible
concessions, the general temper of the
country. as indicated by the chambers
OF commerce. the reichstag, financial
Journals and the governmental special
inquiries, Is stcadfast in what Is con-
sidered sound position, namely. to
take whatever comes.

AS the result of the number of con-
tagious diseases, DR.. Stewart recon-
mends that a hospital for contagious
diseases be built by the city and county
according to a state law which was
passed by the last legislature He
declares that II would practically solve
the situation and reduce the number OF
cases considerably
DEATH RATE INCREASE.
The death rate In Salt Lake City has
increased materially in the last year
and stands among the highest in the
United States. Dr. Stewart says that
the death rate last year was 1902 per
thousand In the following table Salt
Lake stands fifth:
Portland, 1856: Boston, 1715; New
York. 1857; New Orleans. 1879, Salt
Lake 1902; Colorado Springs. 1915;
Los Angeles, IL 81, and San Francisco,
1910.
Dr. Stewart says that the property
owners are dilatory in connecting with
the sewers He says that cesspools
are detrimental to the public health
and that the council ought to compel
the residents to connect with the sew
ers as soon as they are completed.
There were 1,193 connections made dur
Ing the year.
The officials of the public schools
are praised in the report for the man
ner in which sickness is reported
among the pupils. He says that the
teachers, principals and the superln-
tendent have assisted the health de-
partment greatly in keeping pupils
from becoming exposed to contagion.
He recommends a receiving hospital
at the police station. a physician and
a nurse in attendance daily. There
we're 156 medical cases treated at the
hospital and ESQ surgical cases, total
of 436, during the year. The receipts
which DR.. Stewart's office turned over
to the treasurer amounted to s584-5O.
He also declares that last year there
were 400 births in salt Lake which
were not reported to the health de-
partment.

In regard to the garbage situation,
DIR. Stewart says that the rapid growth
of the city has taxed the present sys-
tenn to the utmost and that new routes
had to be established during the year
to handle 1t properly, He recommends
that the city build another garbage
station along the Saltair railroad at
the cost of $4,000 and make water con-
nectlons which. it Is estimated. will
cost s5,740. He says that the crematory
Is working to its full capacity and that
a larger garbage station Is absolutely
necessary.
