CATCH UTAH ROBBERS


Two men who robbed the Bank of
st. George Sunday night, were cap
tured the next day near Panaca, Ne
vada. They had stopped their Ford
to inquire about the road to CAL
iente, and in leaving had dropped
three rolls of dimes from the st.
George bank. Job Hall, of whom
they had inquired, made the find and
notified the local officers. An auto
was soon in pursuit and the men sub
mitted to arrest without a fight.
They had ~blownfopen the bank safe
and secured $4,000 in cash and Lib
erty bonds. All Of the money except
a few dollars and all the securities
were recovered.

Pagel, Ely men. who we're driving
out Of town via the Hot Springs Bridge
with Is gallons of white mule In
their Oakland car when the capture
was made. 1t was stated yesterday
that the men had disposed of q con-
siderable quantity of Illicit liquor be-
fore the capture, most Of the
sales being made In Carlin and aver
aging $40 per quart. Bralis had
$1400 in cashiers checks and cash
upon him. 1t is believed that con-
siderable of the stuff was sold here
and Constable Cotant is of the opin-
ion that the sales were made to a
number of Mexicans employed by the
railroad companies hereabouts. Bralis
deposited $500 bail and Pagel is ex-
pected to receive money from Ely for
the same purpose to-day. The au-
thorities have confiscated both the

was being transported.

sTOCKMEN TO MEET
At SALT LAKE CITY

The second annual convention of the
United Stockmen's Association for
Federal Control of Public Grazing
lands will be held In Salt Lake at the
Hotel Utah, December 6, Z and s, and
longer IL business Of the convention
demands. Delegates will be in atten-
dance from thirteen Western States,
and problems pertaining to
the use of public grazing lands will be
considered.
Les Dillingham;, of Mackay, Idaho,
secretary of the United Stockmen's
Association referred to, is making
final arrangements for the meeting.
There are more than 500,000,000
acres of public grazing lands In the
western States" said Mr.. Dillingham;.
"Our organization seeks to get Fed
eral control of this land and we think
there should be a department of d.
vision of the Department of Agricul-
ture or of the Department of the In
terror for this purpose.
"At our convention here we will
consider the grazing lands problem In
connection with the proposed advance
in grazing fees for National forest
lands from 81 to about SO per head
for cattle. We also shall consider the
policy of the Federal reserve board on
financing live stock producers 1t is
expected that resolutions will be
adopted favoring long-term loans to
stockmen. The Governor of this dis
trict of the Federal reserve board and
others will be invited to attend this
meeting, and there will be able speak
ers present who know about the prob
lens confronting us.

CANAL PAYS ITS WAY

When the Panama canal. as q Ma
tional project, was put through. few.
IL any, Of the officials Of the Govern
ment expected that It would become
a self-supporting enterprise within
less than half a century. IL ever. 1t is
gratifying to know, therefore, that
the canal. within the brief space It
has been in operation. has becomenot
only self-sustaining, but also is in a
fair way to become q money-maker.
The current number of the Canal
Record. the oficial publication Of the
zone, contains statistics which show
that during the fiscal year total oper-
ating expenses were s6,54S,272 and
receipts $s.s35.s71. This does not
take into account interest ON capital
invested. amounting to $367,151,os5,
representing the entire cost Of the
canal.
The total cost of operating the canal
since 1t was opened has been $780,.
ss7,7ss and total to the end
of the last fiscal year have been APP
proximately s34.500.Ooo, less certain
deductions on account of refunds Of
tolls. This indicates q deficit of ST.
000, 900, but the deficit is due to a
recent change in the rules Of
vessel measurement. This change
has worked out so as to cause a def
cheney of the $4,000 oonoted, where
as, had the old rules been kept in
force. there would have been a sur
plus of nearly $4,000, 900.

Big BUILDING TRUST EXPOSED

AppOFtioneu.
Through the code" clients were
numbered and colored cards were
mailed them notifying them Of the
status of their bids. Production Of
the key sheets to the mysterious card
system was one Of the sensations Of
the investigation. Mr.. Hettrick
charged that the cards and other data
had been stolen from his mail.
Witnesses testified that thousands
of dollars were paid by clients to Het-
trick under the code" and that a
large Insurance fund" was main
tanned by the various building groups,
the purpose of which has not been ex-
plaines
Running along with the charges
that under the code competitive
bidding was throttled with testimony
by various witnesses of payments in
volving thousands of dollars to Rob-
ert p. Brindell, president of theBuild-
ing Trades council and his walking
delegates.
Brindell, who testified that he had
been employed e a drug clerk at
Providence, R. l., eight years ago, is
one Of the highest paid labor leaders
in the United States and has been de-
scribed by witnesses rs a king" rid
ing contractors with a high hand. He
has publicly denied the charges, but
has declined to return to the witness
stand after one appearance, at which
time he objected to being questioned
as to his personal life."
According to witnesses, Brindell had
absolute control over the $4,000
Union men in the Building Trades
council and could strike a job at
any time IL the contractor did not
meet his demands. One witness de-
clared that the labor leader figured
$1,000 a floor for himself on a con-
struction job. on several occasions 1t
was testified that Brindell had de-
clined to take $500 or smaller
amounts offered him, with the state
ment that he was nc piker."
One housewrecking contractor de-
clared that his million dollar bust
ness" had been ruined when he re-
fuSad m pa frihuta
Throughout the hearings have
been marked by sharp clashes be-
tween Mr.. Untermeyer and certain
witnesses. including Hettrick. who
was declared in contempt and his Of
fees raided for documents which he
had declined to produce.
Mr.. Untermeyor in a statement had
declared that he is not warning on the
American Federation of Labor. add
ing that in driving out the "vulture"
he was rendering the labor cause
1.-The greatest assistance"
Several times during the investiga-
ton Mr.. Untermeyer had complained
of obstacles" placed in the path Of
the investigation and asserted that
important witnesses could not be
found by subpoena servers. "Al-
though it is not Summer" he said,
Summer resorts outside the State
seem to be quite popular"
Evidence sought by the committee
has also been elusive. according to
Mr.. Untermeyer. who brought out
during examination that a group Of
cut-stone contractors had destroyed
certain documents relating to price
fixing because they might have been
incriminated" II the papers fell into
the hands of the committee.
