London, Sept. IA complete dis
avowal is given by the British foreign
o1ice of the so called official announce
ment that the British government will
formally demand arbitration on the
Panama canal tolls question. 1.-THE
lines of action which lie before the
British government are now being con-
oidered and any announcement of the
kind is premature"
This is the full. text of the formal
statement given out by the foreign Of
nee in reply to requests for details
n to the reported demand for ar
bitration.
In regard to the publication of the
report the officials of the foreign office
said no announcement OF any sort had
been made nor even decided on by the
British government.
The statement, purporting to be ON.
caal, was issued by the Press associa-
don and the Central News. two OF the
3eading news agencies. It appeared at
N hour when it was too late to OBJ
tain Independent confirmation or de-

HH1nted It "a a fact
Question In Status Quo.
Instead of this being the case, how
vover, the Panama canal question re-
mains in the same position 1t has occu-
pied for some time. The government
Wm in all probability propose its refer
ence to the court OF arbitration at
The Hague, but the method Of submit
ting It to that tribunal has not been
decided upon.
The foreign Office throughout has

The statement that arbitration is the
only possible course.
Sir Edward Grey, secretary of state
tor foreign affairs, and other members
OF the British cabinet have been scat
tered all over the United Kingdom and
tho continent ever since the Panama
hiQ became law and in consequence
there has not been any opportunity for
the government to frame its program.
Il is possible the government will
await the result of the elections in the
United States in the hope that the
United States government may find a
way afterward RI meeting british

ment, and examinations. Their rural
schools and many town, schools open
the middle of August and continue till
the first of July. Thus the average
term in their rural schools is more
than three months longer than the av-
erage term in our rural schools. In
the year 1910 it was 80 days longer,
but as we have now a law prescribing
minimum term of seven months, the
difference will not be so great this
year. Their rural school teachers
have on the average four years more
of training and receive salary that
was 1925 higher in the year 1910.
From what data have now on hand
I should say the difference will this
year be still greater in their favor.
There no one can legally teach in any
kind of rural school without normal
training, while here it is the unusual
thing to find a normal trained teacher
in the rural schools. They have done
much more with consolidation than
we have, and are doing SO right now.
Their upper grade enrollment-eighth
grade and high schools much high
er than ours on percentage basis;
and their eighth grade finals are more
exacting.
High Qualifications.

obtained before made the trip; but
it was to find out why by personal
investigation, as we'll as to learn some
things by seeing their teachers at.
work in their school rooms. First, one
is impressed with their attitude to-
wards schools and scholarship. They
hold both in high regard. This is par
ticularly noticeable in their attitude
towards the elementary schools in
Guiding the rural schools. It is shown
in one of several ways by the larger
pro rata share of money that is spent
annually upon them. The municipal
and provincial grants-our county and
state tuition funds-are there appor-
toned upon the number of teachers
employed in connection with the num-
Der Of days taught. Thus there Is a
premium placed upon having longer
term, and sufficient number of quail

band. Brown told the jury that when
he drove home after the dance, a dis
tance OF three miles, and returned with
two rifles, he did not intend to kill
Dubois, his only intention being to get
his daughter and take her home with
him; but that when he met his son-in-

with rocks; that the three. Brown, Du~

hand~to-hand conflict, and that in the
struggle one of the guns was discharged,
his daughter and then hitting Dubois.
Brown branded as false some of the
testimony of witnesses regarding his
conversation over the telephone, and
said that he did not tell F. B. Ham

Dubois declined. He said that he did
not tell MIR. Hammond that Dubois In
suited him, but that he assaulted him.
Brown told of the alleged relations

said that they were such that he, for
several months, suffered much agony
for his daughter.
Judge A. II. Christensen today sus-
tanned the objection of the state against

BIC SALES CONTINUE

by Store Managers to Be

chants Well Satisfied.

Special sales in the big stores con

ture of the week in the business world
of Salt Lake. Managers of stores say
the sales have called out an unprece.
dented patronage and add that the
trade does not seem to slacken as the
days 20 by.
The sales will continue in all their
bTiskness for at least another week.
THEREAFTER, it is the opinion Of store
managers, the volume Of business will
begin again to take on normal trend.
Some Of the stores, in addition to the
motives behind the regular mid sum
mer sales, have the added incentive
TO clean up their stocks for removal
1t is the natural desire of the stores
which propose to find new locations
TO reduce their stocks to the lowest
possible point. There are two reasons
for this desire. The first is that it is
gigantic undertaking to move a big
stock Of goods and the second is that
the shipments Of fall goods will begin
to arrive by the first Of September and
the moro space there is untitled in the
new stores by the old stocks, the more
space there will be for the placing of
lew SOOUS.
The special sales have had the effect
Of stimulating buying in this city as
1T has never before been stimulated.
Bargains are always eagerly sought af-
ter. and when "a considerable number
of big stores offer unparalleled bargains
1t becomes inevitable that the shoppers
will be attracted. Thus it follows that
all of the stores benefit by the big
sales.
The hot weather of the last week has
brought about great demand for mid
summer goods and tremendous quaint
ties of all classes coming within the
designation Of midsummer goods have
been moved. The goods most in de.
mand have been white dresses. Ok
ford shoes, colonials. and summer dress
goods. There has also been a demand
for lightweight silks.
From reports of store managers, II
is safe to say that the big sales have
been the cause of buying in volume
never before experienced in the his
tory of the city's commercial life.
Cashiers report that collections are
fully up to expectations and that there
is. a general feeling of q continuation
Of encouraging conditions.
