COLD WAVE BRINGS
DEMAND FOR COAL
Dealers Expect Shortage May De
velop Owing to the Lack Of
Cars.

The unexpected drop In tempera ture
has caused a sudden increase in the
number of orders for coal. and dealers
who have been selling real estate or other
summer commodities 10 keep the wolf
from the door are looking over their busy
office forces and wondering whether they
had better buy touring car or invest
in railroad stock. Every dealer seen yes
terday reported big business during the
last two days and ali say the orders could
not be more numerous If the thermome-
ter was at zero
The rumor that the United Mine Work
ers OF Colorado who are having trouble
with the coal mine operators. have
threatened TO include Utah in the coal
strike, appears TO have frightened some
Of the dealers here. They say they fear
coal famine in the event of strike,
as the present supply would not last
more than a month In that event, how
ever, coal could be secured from Wyo-
ming, but the present price. s5.75 for
lump coal, Will not be advanced under
any circumstances.
A shortage OF cars is the principal prob
lem just now and the sugar beet indus
try Is being blamed for IT. So many
sugar beets are being shipped that every
coal car Is in demand Then, too, the
beet factories are using all the coal they
can get and gobbling cars for both beets
and fuel. However. under present condi-
tions there will be no shortage, az there
is coal enough In the state to warm
everybody in IL and cook their food all
winter.

CITY MUST REDEEM
BONDS NEXT SPRING
Commission Decides to Take Up Mat
ter of Special Election About First
Of Year.

Salt Lake City Will be called upon
to redeem $796,000 worth of municipal
bonds by May /, 1914. Noble War
rum, city recorder, logged the memory
of the city commission yesterday morn
ing by advising it that a special bond
issue would have to be declared to meet
the old issue.
After much discussion the commits
sion agreed informally that the matter
Of calling a special election for the
bond Issue would be taken up soon aft
er the first of the year. It was sug-
gested that the issue be put to the
vote of the people at the regular No
vember election, but the city attorney
advised against this, declaring that in
asmuch as only taxpayers can vote on
bond issue. much confusion would
arise if special election were not
called,
The issue to be redeemed is known
as series No. B. The bonds are now out
at per cent interest, and 1t is believed
the city can reduce this interest to at
least AZ per cent by replacing them
with another issue.

INDIAN SURPRISES
WHITE As CHRISTIAN
Miss Isabel Crawford, Mis-.
sionary, Makes Statement
at Baptist Convention.

That Indians converted to Christianity
are more fervent In their faith and be-
lieve more implicitly in the efficacy OF
prayer than do average white Christians,
was the statement made last night by
Miss Isabel Crawford an Indian mission
ary Of the Baptist church, In an address
before the annual convention of Bapttsts
of the state.
Miss Crawford has done missionary
work among the Indians for the last
twenty years in Oklahoma and Is now IN
vestigating the blanket Indian missions
Of the west.
In comparing the white Christian un-
favorably with his red brother of the
church, she gave many examples Of In
dian confidence that prayers will be an
|swered, and asked her hearers how many
white Christians would have the same
faith. She said that civilization has
brought little to the Indians except
whisky and bad habits and that the red
men living near large cities are harder
Ito convert than those living In more iso-
lated localities.
In spite of the fact that the rena rks
OF the speaker carried a barb of Criti-
cisIn. the sting was lessensd by the
jovial way In which Miss Crawford
talked. Her address sparllled with humor.
and her anecdotes and method Of ex-
planning her views provoked much laugh
ter and applause,

Object to Cadets.

The resolution against InilitaTisn
points out that a similar resolution was
passed a year ago. and That since that
time military training had been abol
ished ouly in the Ogden schools. The
reierated protest of $4,000 union la
bor men against what is termed the
incubation of inhuman and murderous
ideas into the minds of boys and girls
of tender years is again expressed.
The secretary of the federation and
the executive board is directed to COM
municate with the heads OF school sys-
tens in order to set forth the protest
Of the workers. The action of the con-
ventiop a year ago in passing reso,
luton directed against the boy scout
movement is reaffirmed.
Socialism is presented by the reso-
lntions adopted by the federation as
offering the only solution Of the prob
lens confronting the working class.
The federation reiterated its declara-
tiou of year ago indorsing Socialism
and recommended that the workers of
the state make study of the princi
Piles of Socialism.
Attention is called by the resolutions
10 alleged lnfractions of the nine-hour
law for women workers and of the
new minimum wage law. The president
of the state federation is empowered
by the resolutions to name commit
tee of two TO gather evidence Of such
infractions of the law and present this
evidence to the proper authorities in
order TO prosecute the violators of
