CANNON TO Be GIVEN
PLACE UNANIMOUSLY
keyser Announces Willing
ness to Support Street Com
miSSioner's Man.

That Sylvester Q. Cannon, who was
nominated by Commissioner Richard P.
Morris Thursday TO succeed David H,
Blossom as city engineer. will be Sc
lected for the position by the unani.
nous choice of the commission became
certain yesterday when Commissioner
George d. keyser announced his will
lingness to support the street commits
sioner's candidate. MIR. Keyser's was
the only doubtful vote, 1t is said.
What the lineup of assistants will be
under the new engineer is question
that is absorbing most of the attention
OF the present engineering force, and
also the street department employees.
SO intense is the feeling among some
of the department heads in the eng-
neering Office that political divisions
have sprung up overnight and a merry
game of indoor politics is in progress.
John Duder, assistant engineer under
Mr.. Blossom, and to whom general re"
port ascribed an aspiration to step into
his chiefs shoes, has dropped whatever
higher in the city's service and is lying
low in his present position. Whether
he Will be retained in that position Is
another puzzle that is furnishing lots
of gossip about the city and county
building.
"It all depends on Mr.. Cannon, -
said Commissioner Morris, when asked
about Duder. "The new city engineer
will be allowed to pick his own as
sistants. Whether he will retain Mr..
Duder is entirely UP to him.
According TO members of the ONCE
force in the engineering department,
they were given to understand by l.: f.
Zulich, Office engineer, yesterday, that
all lobbying for Mr., Cannon would
have to cease or somebody would lose
his Job right quick. Mr., Zulick would
not say whether he had given such an
order.
It is generally understood that the
fate Of the proposed ordinance trans
ferring the public Improvement insPec-
tion power from the street department
TO the engineering department will de.
eide the personnel of the principal
heads Of the engineering department.
Should the ordinance be defeated 1T is
understood that Mr.. Duder and Mr.. zu-
lick will resign. Neither OF those OH
ciaIs will discuss the matter.
Whether the ordinance Will pass
hinges on the vote of W. H. Korns, wa
ter commissioner. Tt was reported
about the administration building yes
terday that Mr.. Korns had agreed to
support the measure upon the promise
of certain other commissioners to drop
any possible opposition to the appoint
ment Of Mr.. Cannon as city engineer.
If such proves to be the case then the
street commissioner will win in his
fight to name the city engineer. but
will lose his fight to retain the inspec-
ton work in the street department.
Commissioner Morris smiled when
asked about these possibilities yester-
day and remarked that such might very
likely be the case.
"But the city engineer could very
easily appoint the street supervisor as
the chief Inspector Of public works.
he added rs an afterthought,
IF that should happen the whole tenn
pest in teapot would amount to moth
ing and street inspection would remain
practically where it Is now.

SHEARING IN APRIL.
Movements to Eastern Markets, How"
ever VIII Be Unusually Slow.

Sheep shearing will begin in southern
Utah early in April, but. according TO
G. Ira Tuttle, assistant general freight
agent OF the Oregon Short Line, the
movement of flceces to the eastern mar
kets will be unusually slow, Discussing
the matter. Mr Tuttle said yesterday:
There has been neither contracting
nor sale OF wool so far, and there is
q decided backward movement in this
respect. This condition is due, OF
course. mainly to the tariff Both
woo,growers and buyers are simply
sitting back, waiting the outcome Of
the extra session and 10 see what
will be done with the tariff on wool,
There is also considerable quantity
of wool still in the hands Of buyers
in the east. I look to see a slow
movement in wool during the begin
ming of the season, although there
will be Just as many buyers on hand
and just as much competition in the
field as ever before. The outlook for
a good clip Is excellent,
