Coal Concern Wins Title

Salt Lake.-Coal lands valued al
S5,00O,000 will remain in possession OF
the Carbon County Land company and
Independent Coal and Coke company
as the result of a ruling by Judge
Tillman d. Johnson in the United
States district court just made public.
The lands, totaling more than 5000
acres in Carbon county, have been
the subject of much litigation in the
federal courts because of the govern
ment's claim that they were of known
mineral character before the state of
Utah claimed them for school lands.
Judge Johnson in his ruling sustained
the dismissal motion of the Carbon
County Land company and Independ-
ent Coal and Coke company on the
ground that the cause of action al
legged in the government complaint
was barred under provisions of the
act of March 3, 1891.

still lack definite clue to the identity
of man who committed suicide at
detective headquarters yesterday as
he was being arraigned for the theft
of two fur coats
The man was known as d. j. Ed

written on the collar band of the shirt
he wore \ number of tickets for
iewelry pawned in Western cities
were inscribed ct. NJ. Reilly" how
ever, and detectives believe he used
several other aliases.
The mans arrest was the result of
a 'hunch" by r NJ. PeltZ, a furrier.
After Edwards" had ordered the
coats. valued at $500, sent 10 his room
Ing house. Peltz notified detective
HEADQUARTERS. Two officers accom-
panied the furrier's son when the
coats were delivered, waiting outside
the house.
Edwards" was arrested when he
came from the house a few minutes
later, carrying the furs. As the man
was about to be searched at headquar-
ters. he stepped away from several de-
tectives. drew a revolver from his
overCoat pocket and before he could
be prevented. shot himself in the head.
The furrier's son later notified the
electives that the coats had been
taken from him at the point OF pis-
tol. He had been bound and gagged,
he said, hut managed to get loose.

liked the game of politics above all
other games. Outdoor sports inter
ested her but little. She was rather
fond of bridge. especially in her hus-
bands senatorial days.
Mrs. Harding was a lover of society
as well as politics, and II her health
had permitted, the brief year and a
half she was allowed by fate to reign
as First Lady. would have been the
gayest the White House ever had
known.
Mrs. Wilson was mildly interested In
golf, largely because President Wilson
took such keen pleasure in the game.
She often accompa anied her husbsnd
around the links. Mrs. Harding
thought of golf as belonging particu-
larly snd exclusively to Warren" and
his man friends and made no attempt
to learn or follow the game.
President Taft was an enthusiastic
golfer. but Mrs. Taft seldom. II ever
visited the country clubs when he was
PLAYING President Roosevelt was

most all other outdoor sports. but
Mrs. Roosevelt did not take them UP.
Before Mrs. Roosevelt's time the
