Toxic. Japan. Sept. G.-Thc as,as-
sination OF Director Abe Is generally
regarded M u political crime. He IL
believed to have been nm indirect
victim Of the sensa' ional Japanese
press which recently attacked him
and other foreign office officials. cal
ing them national traitors who must
he removed.
At luncheon yesterday Of the same
group of agitators who formerly or
ganizcd mass meetings against Am
erica some OF the speakers denounced
Abe for misguidtng Japanese policy
In China.
Director Abe diicusscd the politi-
cal situation with the correspondent
OF the Associated Press only three
hours before the murder. He care
fully went over the recent develop
ments in southern China and charac-
tcrized as ridiculous" the reports
that Japan intended Immediately to
occupy the Chinese city Of Nanking.
He bitterly assailed the inaccuracy
and exaggerations Of the japanese
press relative to both the Californian
and Chinese questions and other for
eign papers were inspired with the
idea of embarrassing and overthrow
ing the japanese ministry.
Some shop keepers who saw the as
sasins strike Director Abe pursued
them but without success. They cay
that Abe walked heroically to the
doorstep OF his residence. where he
collapsed in the arms OF mis- son. The
surgeons called hoped TO save the
patient by an operation hut the
wounds were too serious and he died
OF hemorrhaKe.
1t IL thought in official circles that
tho murder was the elimination OF
a plot and that Abe was inexplicab-
ly and unreasonably SINGLED out OF
the lot for irresponsible criticism
the foreign policy of Japan and Sc
lected AZ the victim.

More Than Million Dollars
Needed for Salt Lake Coun-
ty Highways, Officials Say.

r. II. Burrcl. expert in the United
States bureau Of public roads, Is now max
ing certain modifca tons In his original
report To his office regarding the pro-
posed sl,000000 road system in Salt Lake
county. When this Is done his report

ton office and In final form Will be sent
TO the county officials here.
According 10 advices. from Washington
the report was examined there and sent
back TO Special Agent Burrell for rnodif-
cation Officials OF the bureau were OF
the opinion that the amount suggested
81. 600 900. was not large enough 10 con-
struct the mileage recommended The
public road bureau Is proceeding on the
basis and theory that every mile OF road
constructed under its direction should be
perfect and complete, and II is constantly
comba ding the practice of extended mile
age at the expense OF good construction.
The result is that Mr. Burrell was
asked to go over the proposed road sys-
tenn again, with the view to cutting down
| the mileage TO conform with the fund
proposed for construction. He has been
| lectdring throughout the country on good
roads for the past few weeks, with the
| idea Of educating the people TO the value
OF first class highways. He has gone tc
| California on business for the bureau and
| In his report as have been suggested by
the officials of the bureau. AS soon a.
he has done this he will forward the re.
Tsed copy to Washington. After appro.
val there it Will be sent to the county

B. III. ROBERTS GIVES
DOCTRINAL SERMON
Mormon Elder Declares Trend of Mod.
ern Thought Supports L. D. s.
Tenets

Elder Brigham II. Roberts occupied the
pulpit In the Mormon tabernacle yester-
day, giving a vigorous and optimistic dis
course along the line Of the doctrine OF
the church that he represents. The serv-
ice was the quarterly conference Of En-
sign stake and most OF the officers Of
the stake were present, occupying the
high seats OF the tabernacle.
Growing interest In religion and rell-
glous thought and investigation was held
by Elder Roberts as significant and ex-
tremely gratifying. He explained that
great and profound thinkers were coming
TO look upon the fundamental principles
with which religion deals, and which he
said had been set forth for the faithful
by the prophet. Joseph Smith. Chief
among the principles mentioned was the
personality OF man in the life after death,
Elder Roberts quoting from eminent phil
osophers and from statements by business
men and others in an effort to show that
| the belief In such personality was be-
coming more popular.
Although Elder Roberts referred to the
| methods OF the great thinkers OF today
as ploddinG, he expressed joy that they
should In their investieations be groping
| toward the truth. as il was revealed TO
Joseph Smith and others of the Mormon
! prophets II was given TO the Mormon
people, the speaker explained by God IN
his mercy and by his own generous hand
and II was not tainted with slSepticism.

Ensign stake presided at the services and
| prayers were offered by Thomas A. Will
liams and Frank r. Snow. Mrs Charles

already the immense structure has taken

Of reinforced concrete and tile, is finished.
At least half OF the third floor Is propped
up with temporary scaffolding and the

material as the second.
So far not a stone has been laid in
the construction work, although there
has been no delay because OF stone
contract disagreement between the con-
struction and stone companies, as was
frequently rumored. Even though the
difficulties in regard to the local granite
should not be settled for several weeks,
there would be no delay. as the work
