An examination Of the war records
shows that Fort Douglas was estab-
lished in 1853, and that from its estab-
lishment until the time Utah was ad.
mitted as a state about $261, 900 was
expended by the government on the
post,
The records show that the first seri-
Gus effort to have the post enlarged
was made in 1901 by the then Senator
Thomas Kearns. At that time Fort
Douglas consisted Of tweDtyseven Of
ficcrs quarters, SIX non-commissioned
officers quarters, ten barracks, one land
barracks, one cavalry stable and minor
buildings, the capacity of the post being
430 officers and men. During 1901 Sec
retary of War Elihu Root appointed a
board of army officers, headed by Lieu
tenant General Miles, with orders to
make careful study of the military sit
uation of the country and recommend
TO the department what should be done
with the military posts, designating
which ones should be abandoned and

FEW WERE AWARE
OF HIS ILLNESS

Judge Orlando W Powers died at
6:l5 o'clock yesterday morning at his
residence at Lingerlonger, Newhouse
park, in this city. Death was due 10
pneumonis, which developed only dur
ing the last few days, Only three hours
before his death did there appear to
be danger that his illness would re-
suit fatally,
The death of Judge Powers came as
a profound shock 10 the people of the
state, almost all OF whom knew and
loved him. One of the ablest advo-
Gates in the country, an orator of mar
velous gifts, born leader of men, his
loss to the state is almost irreparable
Probably no man who ever lived in
Utah was more in the public eye, more
active in his disinterested devotion TO
the public welfare than was Judge
Powers.
Fell Ill on Coast.
Judge Powers s death was directly
due TO a cold which he contracted while
engaged in case at Ogden. The Judge
contracted severe cold shortly after
the case was begun, but he declined TO
ask for continuance or 10 leave the
conduct of the case TO his assistants.
At the conclusion Of the case he was
called 20 Los Angeles to attend an inn
portant legal conference. His asso-
ciates advised that he remain in Salt
Lake until he had recovered from the
cold.
The judge laughed at their fears and
went to the coast Soon after his ar
rival in California his illness became
more serious and he developed pneu-
monia, the third attack Of this malady
in the last few years. Judge Powers
agreed with the physicians that the at
tack was not serious, but he requested
that he be brought to Salt Lake. DR..
T. 3. Beatty was notified by wire OF
Judge Powers's illness and he left at
once TO meet the train en- route that
was bringing the judge back to Salt
Lake.
