Interests seeking the franchise were represented by L. B. Denning, president of the Lone Star Gas of Texas, and I Fitzpatrick, representing John McFayden, vice- Ohio Oil company, resident of Eavid L. Stinetheand J. A. Howell appeared as their counsel. Both sides presented lengthy statements which lasted more than two hours. Mayor Frank Francis finally cor-(orati- announced that the commission would make no decision on the franchise today and assured them that before action is taken that all sides would be given the opportunity of presenting arguments. Another meeting will be arranged within the next week, the mayor said, the date to be determined and publicly announced. Whether or not Utah can afford economically to support a $20,000,000 concern piping natural gas from Wyoming at the expense of approximately a 20 per cent l eduction in the annual tonnage of coal mined and transported by the railroads in Utah was one of the determining factors in the case, it was pointed out by J. M. Orr, representing the Utah Coal Producers' association. Retail coal dealers also argued that hundreds of men would be out of employment in their line of business and one quoted Governor Dern as saying "it would be the greatest economic curse of history against the state of Utah to bring in natural gaa," Mr. Orr also said that negotiations were now being made by two large companies to come to Utah, manu- Blooming Butterfly, 25e BETS ON PONIES $67,-000,0- 00 Adv.

There was some interest shown in gulf hard winters for export and probably a larger business put through today than for any day on this crop. Total export sales in all positions were estimated at 600,000 to 700,000 Including Manitoba. Foreign cables this morning indicated the number 3 Mancents itobas was quoted about 7 under the price of No 2 hard at the gulf, and as long as this parity exists it is hardly reasonable to presume that sales of hard winters will be any large volume. Weather conditions are very favorable for advancement of the spring wheat crop on both sides of the border with the further moisture and cool temperature. Some rain in the southwest and central states may hold up movement for a while. While we do not see anything that is particularity attractive on the buying side of wheat, it must be rememc ed that prices are certainty reasonable, and with the spring wheat crops not definitely assured, we would not care to be short at these levels. CORN Market showed a firm undertone, although the higher prices seemed to attract considerable selling. Cash market holds up very well, with further sales for shipment out of here. Moderate deliveries are being made each day. Country offerings are light and most of the corn coming in here is to apply on recent sales. We still feel that September com should be bought on all set backs. OATS Market was firmer today, particularly for the July future which advanced rather sharply. Wet weather in central states creates fear of delayed harvest. As yet there are very few new oats being offered. We look for a good demand when they do . .. ...

This statement was made by Wil liam P. Kyne, general manager of tho Lagoon Jockey club, Wednesday morning, when he commented re- court decision, tho Earding down supreme which held that Tuesday, repeal of the Redd act abrogated pri- vileges granted under this law and left provisions of section 8161 in full force and effect as though the Redd act had never been enacted. Section 8161 prohibits horse rscing and all forms of pool selling. "We don't want to violate any laws," Mr. Kyne stated. "I understand that we have the right to appeal after we have bocn officially notified of the supreme courts action. If we are within our rights, an appeal will bo taken. What will happen after that Is problematical, but I expect that racing will probably continue at Lagoon for the next 10 or 12 days." Cl oho Not Determined County Attorney William Dawson of Davis county, who institued the action against tho Lagoon Jockey club, stated that the opinion of the supreme court will terminate racing, but the date when the meet will suspend is problematical. "If no appeal is taken by the Lagoon Jockey dub," he stated, "the races will be discontinued immediately. If an appeal Is taken, however, there is a question as to how long the meet can continue. Some attorneys maintain that under conditions such as exist in this instance the races can bo suspended immediately, with their future activity depending upon the outcomo of the appeal. Other attorneys contend that the races can continue to operate until action is taken on the appeal." lie stated that his course of action will not be determined until after he has conferred with legal representatives of the Lagoon Jockey club, to determine their intentions, and until he has consulted various attorneys regarding his authority to determine the meet immediately. Provides Heavy Fine The supreme court waa not unanimous in its decision. Justices Elias Hansen, Valentine Gideon and J. W.

Coal minea of Utah, he continued, represented an investment of and employed 0,000 men on a payroll of $6,000,000 annually. Most of the coal mined in Utah is consumed within the state, he added, and with the advent of natural gaa the industry could not prosper. J. A. Howell, representing Mr. Denning as counsel, did not agree with some of the arguments and declared that the state of Utah could not afford to bar any new industries. "Let the companies compete," he declared, "and the public will benefit. I believe these men who have made statements are sincere in their fears. But I also believe they are taking a narrow minded view. The bringing of natural gas to Utah will eventually increase industry and not curtail it." Mr. Denning explained the plans of himself and associates in piping the gaa from the Wyoming fields and pointed out the benefits that would come to the people at large. IIe asked that at the next meeting the women of the city be invited in order that their views may be obtained. "The fears expressed here," he added, "show that we must have something that is good.
