MORE Time given
Hartman LINES

The United States Supreme Court
on thursday took under consideration
the application of attorneys for the
Union Pacific Railroad company 70
authorize the circuit judges sitting at
the district court of Utah to extend.
at their discretion, the time in which
the Union Pacific Railroad company
must dispose of its stock in the South
ern Pacific.
Attorney General McReynolds op-
posed granting authority to the lower
court to extend the time without lin.
it, and was allowed two days to file a
brief. Former Senator John C. Spoon
er presented the application in behalf
of the railroad and fled a long brief
outlining the various plans presented
to the government for the disposition
of the stock. The brief concluded with
a statement that it was necessary in
order that the interests of no one be
sacrificed to grant more time for ear
rying out the decree of the Supreme
Court.
"Does the government raise any OBJ
~jectionf' inquired Chief Justice
White.
1.-THE government objects to the
motion in the form in which it is
stated, = replied Attorney General Me.
Reynolds.
With the two days granted to the
attorney general, permission was Civ
en- to the railroad attorneys to file a
reply.
The attorney general declared he
was agreeable to an extension or an
authorization until July l, but opposed
any indefinite extension or an outhor-
~ization for the justice of the Supreme
Court, at his discretion during the
summer recess, to grant another exten-
sion.

EXECUTION TO BE ON
THE 14TH OF MAY

Judge Averill, of Tonopah, has set
May IA, as the date for the execution
of Andrija Mirkovieh, under sentence
of death at the state penitentiary for
the murder of John Gregovich a year
ago. The original date of execution
was vacated by an order of the
Supreme court pending the decision of
the application for a new trial, and
when the ease was decided against the
defendant, the court directed Judge
Averill to again fix the date.
Mirkovich will be executed by
shooting, having preferred that meth
cd to hanging, the only alternative.
He will be the first murderer in this
state to be legally shot to death.
Mirkovich was not brought before
the court to receive sentence. The
action is to be officially forwarded to
the warden at the prison and in turn
will be communicated to the defend
ant, who is now occupying the con
demned cell in the penitentiary.

pleasurable if not actually the great

sion since Tuesday morning when the

The complete program of the con-

the exception of the absence of one or
two out Of town members who were
reported too i'll to attend.
Mrs. James W. Gilmore, who is a

Wife of Prom
inent Citizen
Struck By Shunted Box Car
While Crossing Railroad
Tracks

Mrs. John M. O'Neil, wife of the
assistant cashier of the First National
Bank of this city, had most miracu-
lous escape from death yesterday af
ternoon about 6 o'clock, when she was
struck by shunted box car in at
tempting to cross the N. P. railroad
tracks north of the wool house at
Power St., on her way home.
Mrs. O'Neil had just finished max
ing some purchases at the stores on
this side and was returning home by
the short cut instead of the regular
crossing which is block or so further
Gown the street, when she was hit by
the car and thrown down between the
rails.
The front trucks passed over her
but she succeeded in rolling from un-
der the car between the two trucks
before the rear wheels touched her.
In this respect, her escape from IN
slant death is remarkable for had
the car being moving faster or had
her clothing gotten caught in the ties
or underparts of the car, she would
have, no doubt, been ground to death.
AS it was, her back was badly IN
iured, although no bones were broken.
She walked home with the assistance
of some neighbors and Or. D. }. Don
oh.e was Summoned.
The extent of her injuries IS not yet
known as DIR. Donohue will not com
plete his examination until this even
ing. but she is resting easily and it is
expected that she will be out IN a
short time, unless it develops that she
is internally injured.
