MAY ORDER PHONE
COMPANY TO QUIT
Deputy License Assessor Finds
Davis County Instru-
mentS in City.
IS WITHOUT A FRANCHISE
OUTSIDE CORPORATION HAS NO
PERMIT FROM SALT LAKE.

Because of a fight between the tele-
phone companies Of the state, the city
has learned that the Davis County In
dependent Telephone company is do
ing business IN Salt Lake without
franchise or other rights, and the mat
Ter is TO be investigated by the city
council with the probable result that
the lines of the company will be or
dered out of the city
Frank b kimball, deputy license as
SCISSOR OF the city, was informed by
inner b Jones, manager of the Utah
Independent Telephone company, that
the Davis county company was operat-
ing In salt Lake, and the system used
to a test. He went to the Salt Lake
& Ogden Railroad company's depot at
Ihlrd west and South Temple streets
ana tried TO reach n. b. Staley, mana
ger ana secretary Of the company, at
Pennington. This failed, so he went
TO the Salt Lake Hardware company's
warehouse at Third West and North
Wis county instrument in use
Samuel Howard Of Pennington, pres
ident of the company, was reached over
the Davis county line by Mr.. Kimban.
Mr. Howard did not know how he was
was being reached, but he first ex-
planned that the Davis county line did
not operate in Salt Lake. Mr.. KIM
ball Informed him that he was then
talking on a Davis county phone from
the Salt Lake Hardware plant Then
Mr.. Howard explained that the teIe-
plAOAACS A4du U66n put III DE the salt
Lake d Ogden Railroad company for
the convenience of their Davis county
patrons, and that this was the ONLY
service maintained.
But upon investigation il was
learned that another Davis county
phone was in a house at 562 North
Third West street. The Davis county
patrons telephoned their wants to this
number, and the calls were then sent
around Salt Lake over a local Rocky
Mountain Bell line 1t was being
used as sort Of central station" for
the Davis county subscribers. Mr. Z
kImbal does not know what other
telephones are in use in Salt Lake but
believes there are at least Is.
The matter has been placed before
the license committee OF the city council
and will probably be taken up Thursday
night, if the committee has the time
after the Salt Palace license matter is
of. At any rate, 1t appears
certain that the telephone company
viii be ordered cut of Salt Lake
where It is operating without fran
chise rights.

ACTORS FUND SWELLED
BY LOUVRE CELEBRATION
Players Appear at Cafe to Enter
tain, While Patrons Spend
About $4,000.

That the people Of Salt Lake are gen
erous, and are not averse to cOmbin-
ing pleasure with charity, was evident
last night at the Louvre cafe, where
a tremendous number gathered for the
double purpose of having an evening
of enjoyment and at the same time
assisting IN a worthy cause. The re-
ceipts were near $4,000, 20 per cent,
or about 1000, of it going for the an
nual benefit in aid of the Actors Fund
OF America. a check for exactly 20
per cent of the receipts will be sent
by Manager +. L. Willie to New York
today
After IL o'clock, when the theatres
had been emptied, and the people be
gan to flock to the Louvre, II was al
most impossible to get inside the place.
Manager Willie was unable to find
space to seat the crowd that had OBJ
tanned admission AID he had to call
upon the SemIoh hotel to help him out
with chairs.
Many of the wise ones had reserved
tables, and had selected the most de-
sirable ones, these being close to the
orchestra platform. Practically all OF
the actors who are appearing at the
local theatres this week gave their
services to help swell the fund, and
many of these appeared in stage cos
tune.
Bert Swor and Franker Woods, of
The Red MIL company, appeared as
Italian street singers, and sang the
song ''Good-a bye John" which made
a big hit. Others from 1.-The Red Mill
company who appeared were Mabel De
Nordendorfi, Jennie Houston and Yer
nice Martyn- The Dutch Riddles were
present also in costume, and they were
kept busy selling stamps for the fund.
Miss Lillian Ashley, from the Or
pheum, made big hit with song and
was encored. Madame Mauricia MORT
chtni and Mabel Bardine and company
also appeared. Performers from the
Casino, Mission. Majestic and Daniels
theatres also assisted in the evening
enjoyment. Mrs c. n. Sutton (RoSa
