A real estate man long identified
with the business here and who has
followed closely the tremendous rise
in values in the past few years as
serts that the present capitol build

is worth close to two and haII
million dollars. He points out the
fadt that the property would make
Fulton county a magnificent court
house. and as the various state de-
Dartments have outgrOwn the pres

innate for the county. Fulton is now
agitating the question OF OulldlhS

Of the state capitol would solve the

DENIES RUMOR OF
. FIRMS WITHDRAWAL
Manager Jones Declares His
Company viii Continue
to Do Work Here.

Richard D. Jones, manager OF the Jones
Construction company, about which firm
storm has been brewing for some time'
denies that his company will withdraw
from the work of erecting steel on either
the Utah hotel OF the Kearns office build
ing, despite rumors in labor circles that
this is just the action that will be taken
Mr.. Jones said yesterday, in reply to the
story emanating from the Building Trades
council:
There has been no question of our
abandoning any work which we have IN
progress in salt Lake, and not only that,
but there are . number Of contracts
which we have and have not started
which we will carry through. The whole
matter is simply a union labor PROPOSE
ton and We win fight it all the way
through. We are here TO stay. We have
the contracts and as long as our work
goes along to the satisfaction Of the men
who are supervising the work. nobody has
anything TO say. We have plenty of men,
are turning them away every day, and
everything is going along smoothly"
While Manager Jones assumes this at
titude, the labor leaders in Salt Lake say
that trouble is coming on both buildings
if the situation is not cleared, for the rea-
son that since the steel is being erected
by non-unOn labor, the other work to be
done cannot be performed by union men.
As a result, the combined forces of the
Building Trades VIII combat any effort to
import skilled artisans into Salt Lake who
do not carry cards. As soon as the work
progresses past the stage of steel ereo-
ton the first test of strength will come.

The cold wave arrived as predicted.

The cold wave arrived as predicted.
Following a period of unusually mild
weather the mercury commenced tumbiing
early yesterday, and as the day advanced
seemed as though bound to establish a
record for sudden depreciation. At
o'clock Monday night the mercury regis
tered AZ degrees, which was about the
maximum for the day. By o'clock yes
terday morning there had been a de-
crease of l3 degrees to 30. and by early
last evening the temperature was how
ering around the ~ mark. with every
indication that it would reach 10 or i
during the night.
The cold wave forecast came in spe-
cial bulletin from Denver late Monday
night. Owing to yesterday being holl-
day. no forecast was issued by the local
department. excepting that the indications
were for continued clear No additional
adYiCes had been received from Denver
but there We're plenty of outside indi-
cations of decreasing temperature.

STEPHAN HOME
 BURNS TO GROUND
WeII-known Newspaper Man Working Among Delegates When In-
 formed of Loss.

Montgomery, January 2S.-(Special)- The home of Capt. W. T. Sheehan, one of the editors of the Advertiser, was burned tonight, the loss being total. It was not possible to learn how much in- surance he had. Mrs Sheehan and the baby got out in safety, but had rather close call, as the house was burning when they awakened. Captain Sheehan was at the hotel working on the com mittee meeting story when the report came of his loss and hurried out to find his home gone.
 The loss will run to about 5000 as the house was a very pretty cottage, with much valuable furniture.
