himself is charged against A R. Pelton,
president Of the Pelton & Shutter COM
Pany of Denver. which, until recently,
held control of the Grand theatre in Salt

filed in the district court yesterday di-
rected against the Denver Theatre COM
pany, A. r. PeltOn, the National Bank of

mate with John COrt. The action is filed
by the Salt Lake Amusement association,
owners Of the Grand theatre property, in
which the firm seeks to collect the S666.67,

ADMITS HIS GUILT
IN JUSTICE COURT
Head Declares He Passed
Saws to Alleged Murderer
of Officer Riley.

Richard w. Head pleaded guilty in
Judge F. n. Bishops court yesterday
afternoon to furnishing L. E. DriskeII,
confessed slayer of Special officer c. =.
Riley, with hacksaw blades. which
Sheriff Sharp discovered Sunday. He
was bound over to the district court,
and in default of 81 900 was committed
TO the county Jail to await trial
Head was arrested on d Murray
street car December Z by Deputy Sher-
ifs w. 3. Booth and J. Pete johnson
as a suspect OF various street car hold
ups. In his pockets were found a re-
volver and what appeared to be a
homemade mask. Unable to connect
him with any Of the holdups, he was
committed to the county Jail as a
vagrant to serve a term of sixty days.
His cell was not far from that of Dris-
kell and it is believed that he had
many conferences with him at the time
of his confinement.
Released about three weeks ago.
Head and Tracy Driskell, a brother of
L. z. Driskell, the alleged murderer,
had been seen together on various oc-
casions. Shortly before DTiskelrs at
tempt at breaking out Of jail, Head
purchased number of hacksaw blades
at the Heagren repair shop on Main
street between Fourth and Fifth South
streets. They were Of a special quality,
made to cut tempered steel.
Attempting to shoulder all the blame.
it appeared 70 the court yesterday aft
ernOOn that Head was attempting to
shield Tracy Driskell, who is in jail,
suspected of being implicated in pass
ing L. E. DriskeIl the saws with which
the latter was to cut his way to liberty.

FLOOD CONDITIONS
TO Be ELIMINATED
Work of Dredging and Widen
ing Surplus Canal Is Or
dered Begun.

As q means Of relieving the flood con-
ditiOns along the Jordan river to a
limited degree, Mayor John s. Braus-
ford yesterday made an agreement with
J. A Condit, president of the Utah
Sand, Dredging x Construction compa-
ny, for the dredging and widening of
the surplus canal the work to be start
ed at once The city will pay the firm
20 cents per cubic yard for the earth
removed from the bed or sides OF the
canal, but will pay about $1O0 TO move
the dredger of the company from ia
present position in the Jordan river TO
the point desired in the canal
The dredging will all be done on the
west side Of the canal, where the
banks are low. These will be built up
with the earth taken from the bottom
Of the canal. Two weeks ago the city
council appropriated $1,000 for this
work, after City Engineer George +.
McGonagle started for the east en-
powered to spend $4,000 for a city
dredger. 1t is believed the $1,000 viii
hardly make an impression, but ii viii
be used as long as it lasts, and then
the council will be asked for another
similar appropriation, awaiting the ar
rival of the City's dTedger.
Jake T. Raleigh, street supervisor,
now has several teams at work on the
job, and these viii be used in COnjunc-
ton with the dredging machine I'm en-
larging the canal. The S1G0 expense to
the city for moving the dredger to the
canal viii be spent in taking the huge
machine around some of the bridges
over the canal. The teams can only be
used in a few spots and Will be used
chiefly in removing posts and other OBJ
stacles from the canal, to give the
dredger a free sweep OF the canal.

FORECAST IS FOR SNOW
Local Weather Man Says Indications
Point TO a Continuance Of
Real Winter.

The cold wave which enveloped the
entire intermOuntain country through
OOut Wednesday and Thursday has
moved rapidly eastward and yesterday
was central off the New England coast.
There was a noticeable rise in tenn
perature in the Salt Lake district, and
Section Director A. II. Thiessen looks
for improved conditions during the
next twenty-four hours. The forecast
for last night and today was for local
snow, but Mr.. Thiessen could see no
indications of reduced temperature.
Speaking Of Genealogical conditions
yesterday, Mr.. Thiessen said:
THE low pressure noted in the eX-
IRENE northwest yesterday is now cen
trail over Utah, and has caused gen
eral precipitation in the northwest,
with higher temperatures in the great
basin Except in the great basin and
California it is colder than usual over
the entire country.
1.-THE presence of the low pressure
area in this section will cause partly
cloudy weather, with local snow in this
vicinity tonight or Saturday. The tenn
perature changes will be unimpOrtant.'

TO URGE EARLY CLOSING
Retail Clerks Association Will Prob
ably Institute Campaign.

At a meeting of the executive commit
tee of the Retail Clerks association last
night at Federation of Labor hall, at a
little after 8 O'Clock, further steps were
taken for carrying on the movement for
the early closing of stores of the city on
Saturday night There were present c.
A PalmQuist, secretary of the assOcia-
ton; Abe Martin. president; A. KnOwl-
den and Messrs. White and Leberthal of
the organization.
II is probable that a campaign will be
instituted among the people Of the city to
do their shopping early on Saturday night
1t was pointed out that at the present
time clerks in the stores are often com
PEELED to work for sixteen hours on the
last day of the week. and It was thought
that in many cases this is due to the
thOughtlessness Of people who now go to
the theatres or to other places of amuse-
ment early in the evening instead of shop
ping.
The matter will also probably be taken
up by the different trades unions IN the
city, the members of which will be urged
10 do their trading at the earliest hour
possible. Other meetings VIII be held at
a future date and complete details of the
movement viii be announced.

Police Dogs to Be Trained
to Trail Men Being Hunted

they should become very valuable. A
necessity in the training of a pair of
bloodhounds is to see that they have
but one master,
Suppose that the attention of the
police department is called to a burglary
CT possibly a murder in the outlying
sections of the city. The fugitive al
ways leaves a track of some sort, and
in many instances drops his hat, forgets
a glove or a handkerchief. From the
track, if 1t IS reasonably fresh, or from
hat or handkerchief or glove the
hounds will be able TO pick up a scent
almost instantaneOusly, and they will
follow the track with almost a feverish
dash. They keep the officers informed
Of the progress of the chase with occa-
siOnal baying, and there is a distinct
change In their tone when they BRING
the fugitive to bay"

suits Through Advertise
mentS for the City.

salt Lake is coming in for more free
advertising as a result of the proposed
Jeffries-Jo Johnson fight than any othe%
city in the west" said Fred Slade, pres
ident of the Mulett Clothing company,
who returned yesterday from a pur-
chasing trip To the eastern markets.
Mr.. Slade visited all of the big cities
and the leading manufacturing towns
In the east and middle west, and said
that Salt Lake was being discussed
everywhere. Everybody in the east
is pulling strong for Salt Lake, and the
result is the Utah capital is being
widely advertised"
Speaking Of business conditions
throughout the country, Mr.. Slade
WaXed enthusiastic. He said. Every
thing looks good, and the outlook for
business Is unusually bright. Every
thing is forging right ahead in first
class shape. In fact conditions
throughout the east and middle west
look better than every before" Mr..
Slade visited in Chicago, Detroit New
York, Boston and Philadelphia, en- route
east. as well as most of the manufac-
turing towns adjacent TO these cities,
and upon his return made brief stops
at Kansas City and Denver.
This viii be a gray spring" said
Mr.. Slade, referring to the prevailing
color for mems clothing. An effort is
being made TO work in a little brown
for the fall season, but grays will pre-
dominate during the spring and sum-
mer months. WOrsteds, CashmeTes and
Scotch fabrics viii be in big demand,
and there will be an unusual lot of
soft stuff" worn throughout the coun-
try this year.
'TTanscOntinental travel" said Mr..
Slade, lis unusually heavy, both east
and west. Every train headed for the
coast is crowded TO capacity" Mr..
Slade took occasion TO call attention to
what Salt Lake is missing as a result
of the disastrous Washouts on the line
of the San Pedro, los Angeles & Salt
Lake road, which. he says, has resulted
In through traffic via Ogden, thereby
cutting off the coming 10 Salt Lake Of
thousands of tourists and travellers.
Salt Lake people" he said, should
get busy and see that service via the
Salt Lake Route is quickly restored, az
it will mean a big thing for this city.
Many people en- route to and from the
coast, who would stop over here under
ordinary circumstances, are Disguised

is they 60 right through"
