ACCUSED OF THEFT
Edward De Rosa, Trusty, Stays Away
From Institution and Gets
Into Trouble

Edward De Rosa, 90 years of age, had
the unique experience last night of
being jailed while he was already Off
cially in Jail. He is charged with petty
larceny for the alleged theft of a box
Of cigars from the saloon of the Gold
Label Liquor company, 90 East Second
South street.
De Rosa has been trusty at the
city jail for the past week. Last night
he strayed from the Jail yard, where
he has been regularly employed as an
automobile washer, and an hour after
ward was taken to headquarters by Pa
trolman Davis. The patrolman stead
led his prisoner while the accused man
saluted the police captain and explained
that the cigars were on the saloon floor
and to take them from there did not
constitute stealing as far as he could
see, De Rosa s knuckles were bleed
ing. which he was at 4 loss to account
for Pntrolman Davis, however, ex-
planned that he found the Jail trusty

swering call to the saloon,
With a final soldierly salute to Cap
tain Johnson, De Rosa lurched across
the hall and was booked by the desk
sergeant ou a charge of petty larceny.
Within q few minutes he was not only
officially, but actually in Jail.

F|NANC|ER PREDICTS
ERA OF PROSPERITY
w. w. Armstrong Is Pleased
With Business Conditions
In the East.

An era of prosperity is predicted by
w. w. Armstrong, president Of Ma
tional Copper bank, who has just re-
Turned from "A business trip TO New York.
which followed his visit TO Denver on the
reserve orga nizntion committee before
which Mr.. Armstrong had appeared to
urge the claims OF salt Lake az the To-
cation for federal reserve bank.
Business conditions, Mr. Armstrong
found, were greatly improved In New
York and Chicago and the business men
were forecasting particularly roseate
future for the business OF the country,
The optimism Of the east. he said was
partly due to improved trade conditions
and partly TO the universal approval of
the new currency act and OF the other
policies OF President Wilson.
While pleased with the business out
lock in the east, Mr.. Armstrong regretted
TO report that the chances for Salt Lake
being selected as the location for a re-
gional reserve bank under the new cur
rency law appeared to be remote. The
Denver bankers, he said. were still hope
full of securing a bank for that city, but
ting reserve bank were just as poor
as we're those of Salt Lake. He said:
On its merits Denver is not u bit
more entitled TO q regional reserve
bank than Salt Lake Is We made
our representations as strong as pos
slble, and, of course. have hopes for ,
the best, There IS danger, however
that the organization committee will
decide that the intermountan terri
tory Is not large enough TO warrant
the esta blishment Of reserve bank
In this district. 1t is not improbable
that Salt Lake and Utah will he In
cluded In district served by re-
serve bank on the Pacific coast and
that Denver will be included in dis
trct having Its reserve bank on the
Missouri river.
Secretary OF the Treasury McAdoo
and Secretary of Agriculture Hous-
ton went into detail at considerable
length In order to determine the re-
sources of the distr let which the pro-
posed regional bank was to serve.
They requested the bankers to sub
NIT for their consideration statistics
showing the capitalization OF the
banks in the proposed district and the
volume OF the business done in the
cities of the district. L was asked
what second choice Salt Lake had for
regional bank and ] told the com
mite mittee that IN the event salt Lake
bank We would like to be attached to
San Francisco
Recurring to his New York trip. Mr..
Armstrong said:
There is every reason to feel op-
qmistic over the business outlook.
In New York and other financial cen
ters ! found the bankers and others
with whom 1 talked particularly
cheerful over business conditions.
There has been a decided improve
mcnt in conditions for some weeks
past and every Indication points to q
prosperous year.
The currency bill is generally re-
Garded with favor. especially by the
bankers and business men, l have
never seen In the east so much SYM
pathy with the policies OF a national
administrat ton as there appears to be
with the policies Of President Will
son.

COST OF BUILDING CREAMERY
Small Structure Constructed Of Brick
or Cement viii Cost From
$1,000 to $4,000.
cBv JAMES soRENsoN)

The cost of building and equipping
a creamery will vary with the kind of
material used, the size Of the build
ing, and the distance the building ma
terials must be transported. Prices
of building materials also vary, which
makes it very hard to give accurate
figures as to cost. hence only general
data can be given In this line.
A small creamery building con-
structed of brick or cement. with ce-
ment floors. will cost from $4,000 to
$4,000, a medium sized building $4,000
to $4,000, and large one from $1,000
to 10000 These prices secure good
substantial buildings. constructed so
that they are sanitary and practically
frost-proof. and that is the cheapest
building to put up where dairying
has come to stay. There are no doubt
places where lumber is cheap and
dairying In its infancy, where 1t may
