The money. the exact amount of

With it was another batch of money
which represented 75 per cent of the

another was sent by the Uintah rail-
road as so per cent of It's taxes. Mr..
Canon, at the request of the tax agent
or these roads, acknowledged the
tender. but refused to accept it.
Ii is very evident that the county
commissioners will have to abate Il

by the flames is believed TO indicate
that the leak in the main still exist

The fire was discovered by
watchman who had entered the Of

turned in a still alarm and then
rushed to the street to find that the

Leach Cross Wins

LOS ANGELES, July 4-With a right swing to the jaw Leach Cross. the New York lightweight finished Bud" Anderson of Oregon today in the twelfth round of what was carded to be a twenty round batse at the Vernon arena. The blow landed with terrific force and Ander- son was out more than four minutes.
 The Oregon boy had been a favor ite in the odds as high as two to one. When he went down he struck with loud thud and his inertness as he lay in the ring silenced the usual plaudits to the winner The crowd thought he was dead Cross thought so too. Instead of retiring from the ring, the customer bent anXiOuSly over the prOstrate adVer- sary and when Anderson finally ral- lied the Vanquished pugilist was Anderson was so weak that he was then carried to his dressing room. Cross had the fight all the way. In the first he sent the oregon fighter spraWling on his back.
 In the succeeding rounds the New Yorker punished Anderson severely while avoiding nearly everything the oregon boy aimed at him. Ander sons face and body was pounded un- mercifully and in the fourth round straight arm jab delieVerd by the dentist fighter relieved him of a tooth.
