MORGAN GOES TO
COAST FOR FRENCH
Assistant County Attorney
Will Make Second Attempt
to Get Promoter de Luxe

| Nicholas G. Morgan, assistant county
attorney, has gone to California again
in a second attempt on the part OF
County Attorney /. E, Wiley to extra
dite c. w. French, the promoter
wanted here on charges of obtaining
money under false pretense.
Mr.. Morgan s second departure was
cloaked in all possible secrecy. The
county attorney, when asked yesterday
as to the truth Of the report that Nor
gan had gone to Sacramento, refused
to answer either afhrmatively or mega
lively, and TO second question he said
he did not know whether his chief as
sistant had gone or was gong, Still
later, when confronted with proof that
Morgan had departed for Sacramento,
Mr. Wiley acknowledged the truth.
This time Morgan will seek the ex-
tradition of French in connection with
a charge that he casbed Sl400 worth
less bank draft at the Hotel Utah. The
first charge involved a draft Of $1,000.
'Our second attempt at extradition
was made necessary because ID, Won
Cramer, the Vancouver capitalist who
refused to pay the draft issued against
him by French and then, through con-
spiracy or other motives, denied before
the California governor having re-
pudiated the draft" Wiley said
''It has been made to appear and
has been reported that my Office and
the state of Utah has been used as a
collection agency in this matter. We
do not intend to rest until this report
has been disproven, and the proof will
be in the return of French to stand
trial on charge of committing a
felony here
The county attorney declared that he
had received no word from Sacramento
as TO whether the governor Of Cali
fornia had made decision on the first
application for requisition, but he inti-
mated that in all probability it would

second set of requisition papers was

MURRAY SAYS CITY IS
PROSPERITY LEADER
Vice President of National
Bank of Republic Visiting
in Salt Lake.

Salt Lake is perhaps in moro
conservative and prosperous business
condition than any city in the west or
northwest, in the opinion of James a.
Murray, vice president of the National
Bank of the Republic. Mr.. Murray, a
pioneer of Butte, but who for the last
few years has lived In Monterey, Cal,
arrived in Salt Lake yesterday. He
will remain in Salt Lake several days
to attend to business matters and then
return to California.
Referring TO Salt Lake yesterday,
Mr.. Murray said the city could never
be in n less vigorous condition Of bust
ness than at present and that It's steady
growth in both business and population
would permit it to flourish in the fu-
ture. He based his declaration on the
fact that no booms concerning the
sent out broadcast and that many of
the resources of the state had yet to
be developed.
For several months past Mr.. Murray
has been in Sonora, Mexico. He has
many copper mining interests in the
state of Sonora and predicts that min
ing in Mexico will produce great wealth
for the country. Aside from his inter
ests IN L tah, Montana, California and
Mexico, Mr.. Murray has invested heav-
lily in city property in Seattle. He was
not near the seat of the civil strife in
Mexico, but he said that business af-
fairs Of the country were very muc h
unsettled as a result of the war. Mr..
Murray is stopping at the Semloh ho-

further investigation is necessary TO de-

Shamsha. who gives his age as 40
years, speaks no English, but through the
aid OF JaiIer Richard Beynon the prison
er's Polish -Aslatic- Russian -Kurd Ger
man was turned into nteligible English.
Shamsha carried a book, in the back OF

burned, ptllaged and massacred.
The book which Shamsha carried
