Speeches and Elect
Officers.

Dr. Rhys r. Lloyd, the scholar and
lecturer, was an honored guest at the
regular monthly meeting of the Sons
and Daughters of Wales, held in Fed
GRAFTON Of Labor hall last night. The
occasion was a gala one for the citi-
zens Of Welsh birth, as they were af-
fOrded the Unusual opportunity of lis
tening to two addresses in their native
tongue
DR.. Lloyd, who is native of Wales,
made the principal address in the
Welsh language, and, judging by the
frequent applause that greeted his re-
marks, he must be an adept in the
ancient tongue.
Postmaster Arthur l.. Thomas. also
a native of Wales, introduced DR.. Lloyd
in few well chosen remarks, and con-
cluded by telling his hearers that the
doctor was a COmpatriOt of whom they
ought to feel justly proud.
The other address in Welsh was made
by William Davis. The first part of
the meeting was taken up with the
election of officers, after which a fine
musical program was rendered. Fol-
lowing are the officers elected last
night; President w IL. POLAND; vice
president, Evan Arthur; second vice
president, Mrs. K. Dixon Shill; secre-
tary, John Evans; treasurer, Rees
Davis; executive board, Mrs Sara Sui
loway, John Jones, Joseph ]. Coles and
John James.

SUBSTITUTE LEGS ARE
CRUSHED BY TRAIN

Jack Duff, cripple and veteran of
Commercial street thirst parlors, was
arrested for drunkenness yesterday
morning, after he had promised TO
never again partake of intoxicants.
Sunday morning, while under the in
fluence of liquor, Duff fell asleep near
a side track in the Oregon Short Line
yards. He left his crutches on the
tracks. A passing switch engine ran
over them and mashed them into
pieces.
With no crutches to stand on. Duff
was taken TO police headquarters sun
day morning. 1t required all the
strength Of two policemen to bring him
before Judge J. H. Bowman on the fol-
lowing morning to answer to a charge
OF drunkenness. When the court or
dered him released, Duff was unable to
walk away from police headquarters.
Lieutenant John Hempel took up a col
lection among members of the police
department and bought Duff a new
pair of crutches. Yesterday Duff
showed the new crutches to all his old
friends and in celebration of them be-
came helplessly drunk. He was arrest
ed again.

CUSTER AND WIFE GET
THEMSELVES ARRESTED
Couple Tell on Each Other and Each
Must Answer to Serious
Charges.

Another tangle in the divorce suit
of Minnie c. Custer against Ernest L.
Custer came yesterday when both were
arrested on statutory charges and were
released on bonds of $780, Th0y will
appear before Justice of the Peace F.
Nj. Bishop today. Each one furnished
the sheriff with facts about the other
ana the arrests resulted. Custer charges
his wife with living as a bigamist with
John 2. Schmidt, whom she married
without having obtained a divorce.
The wife charges her husband with
having married again, the name of the
second wife being Marie.
The whole trouble is said to have
started when an attorney in Butte told
Mrs. Custer that she had received a
divorce. She told her husband the same
thing, and both determined to marry
again. The wife married Schmidt and
custer took unto himself another mate.
Ihls was back in 1897, when they both
lived in Butte. Since then, however,
both have come TO Salt Lake, and the
wife brought suit against her husband
Tor separate maintenance and charged
MIN with living with another woman.
custer objected to the maintenance fea-
ture, after thirteen years away from
MS wife, and in his cOunter-cIain
charged his wife with bigamy and
asked for a divorce from her.

mand the south area of the forest. The
main line via Willis and Shvely will
command the main forest. Rich in other
products is this north Pacific section OF
California. The Northwestern Pacific
road as a whole, will give the Southern
Pacific and Santa Fe command of that
section. will entrench them against posi-
BILE moves within the next five or ten
years by powerful roads like James J.
Hill and the Gould system. Gould is al
ready IN California. In the natural course
OF events he will want branch lines in the
state where there is good traffic.
The Hill system must go to Califor-
MIA some day. These and other possible
competitors will find the North Pa
cific countries and the redwood forest
area strategically commanded by the
great interests LOvett and Ripley rep
resent.
Ultimately this Northwestern Pacific
viii go further north in the coast coun-
ties via Crescent City in oregon and
the Coos bay country. 1t will some day
form another trunk line between San
Francisco and Portland like the pres
ent coast line between San Francisco
and Los Angeles.
The giving of Joint rates to the West
ern Pacific means that the Southern
Pacific and Santa Fe have agreed to a
division with the Gould road on all
shipments overland it can command In
the country north of Bakersfield. This
means that if a shipper wants to route
a shipment over the Western Pacific
from or to points on either the South
ern Pacific or Santa Fe he can do so.
Through Divisions Unsettled.
What division of the through rate the
Western Pacific Is to get is not known.
The same is also to apply to passenger
travel The traffic officials of the three
roads established a basis for this rate
division recently. LOvett and Ripley
mentioned il at their conference. There
is two-fOId reason for this conces-
sion to the Gould line. By division OF
rates with it, thus enabling it to reach
out for business all through the san
JOAQUIN valley and other districts north
of bakersfield. the Southern Pacific and
Santa Fe removes some time in the fu-
ture at least any building Of branch
lines bv Gould. The temptation will
not be so strong to build into COMPETE
tive territory when he can get a share
of the traffic without doing so.
Il is also said the division OF rates
was agreed upon because the bankers
behind the Gould line got the consent
of the financial interests supporting the
other two roads.
1t cannot be said that the southern
Pacific has urged the Santa Fe 10 join it
in a union depot at Los Angeles. The
Southern Pacific has to build a new
depot there, which is to serve It's pur-
pose for years TO ccme. It sought to
settle now one way or the other the
question of a union depot before build
ing one for itself IT took additional
interest in this question at this time
because Senator w A. Clark of the
Salt Lake & Los Angeles road was
in favor of a union depot.
