The Terrible Tale of Torture Recited by a Piece of "Blind Bdggags" on the Union Pacific. HE WAS HANGED BY THE NECK. John White, an Aristocratic Tramp, Pre-fers Horrible Charges Against a Train Grew-- A more intensely dramatic legend than that which was unfolded from the witness stand in Judge Zane's court this morning was never listened to. The playwright has conceived of many wild and thrilling situations, but no more thrilling than that which the plaintitr in tho caso of John White vs. The Union Pacitio railway recites as a reality. And for playing the leading part ho asks compensation iu the sum of iflO.OOD. According to his own story While was a farmer residing near Brighton, Colo., and the earnings from that pursuit being rather slim ho re-solved to come west and bettor his con-dition. Ho was not a man of resources but was full of expedients and having made up his mind to ship his freight took the first train. Ho arrived at Cheyenne, where to follow the west-wor- d course of empire he had to change cars. He ignored the ticket agent and di 1 business with the "brakey." As blind baggage he was called on to produce a tariff and un-earthed "() cents, that, as a small favor, was thankfully received and pocketed. At Laramie no again had occasion to change cars and to tip the brakeman. Kawlina was reached ami passed. Ho ami a traveling companion were upon the platform of a fruit car and subse-uuentl-engaged in an interview with a brakeman named Pat Taggart. That whs Taggart's last interview as it was his last trip over the road. A few moments later he was picked up a mass of llesh and bones. How death was caused is a mystery that the au-thorities of Wyoming are mill trying to solve. While the train was speeding on its course, however, the conductor was notified that in his anti-iiiorte- state-ment Taggart hail said that a man with a beard had been his assailant. This description tallied with the appearance of John White, and avenging justice in a while heat took hold of him. A few moments later he was dovetailed to a moving train with a rope about his neck. Tho train bowled on at a rate of speed about commensurate with tho speed of which While was capable, aud the exhibition became one of tho most hideous naturo. Tirod out aud jaded the victim of the alleged outrage grasped the rope by which he wtflt being mercilessly dragged and succeeded ill extricating himself after w hich he beat a trail to the hills where for hours he wondered under the maudlin effects of the cruelty to which he had been subjected. He finally stumbled on to a coal camp where he was provided for and where be re-mained until an officer from Grecu Kiver arrested him for the murder of Taggart, the brakeman. He stood an examination and was discharged after which he continued bis way to Salt Lake where he secured employment at the Kntitsford hotel. The cruelty he had sustained was still' haunting him however and he filed the suit that is now on trial and in which he is repra-sente- d by Judge Powers aud .Mr. Williams while tho defense is being represented by Parley Williams and W . Van Colt A stockholder in the Oregon Short Line having been eliminated from the panel the evidence began. John White being sworn testified tli :i he was plaintiff and in the court rov. ..1 under charge of an officer. Had been working on hotel Kuutsford since August last; lives in Weld county where he owns a farm; had been a contractor in llustiugs, Nebraska; started for Salt Lake on July 2, 18H0; took the Union l'acilic railway; got on at Chey-enne; brakeman came and I gave him tifiy cents; rode to Laramie and took another trairf; gave tho brakeman fifty cents to go to Kawlins; then jumped another train and rode about twenty-liv- e miles upon the platform of a fruit car when a brakeman came and asked if he ha.il any "dough." I said I have tifty cents; he said "you can't ride for that " I gave him two silk handkerc-hief?', tlie brakemen seated himself on the platform and said that was his last trip on the road; the brakeman asked me lu take a drink which I refused and then he started to go and get me something to drink; the brakeman mounted the car and I was taken otf the platform; tho brakeman followed and mid nie to throw up my hands; he went through my pockets aud struck me with a gun; got away from them and they followed shooting at me; they took me into a caboose, one of them holding me by my coat and a hatchet over my head; one of the men said as he put the rope around my neck, "This is the same rope?" He says "uh hu"! Was then thrown from tlie 'rain and dragged; finally got away, went into tho mountains and finally wandered to tho coal camp where the superintendent of the mine took care of me; was atrested on a charge of murder; wes examined there and discharged, after which he contin-ued to Ogden. Witness then exhibited a chapter of horrible sears and indent-ures upon his scalp that yet bear vivid evidence of the abuse to which he was subjected.

The Eyes of Oapitr.l in tbe Et gre Turnod Longingly Towards' tlie West. i 0ECHAED3 AND STOCK EAIq Lowor Main Street is Soon to j,a Graotd with a Fiue Structure. A vnry interesting talk was had th morning with a gentleman of larg means from Wilkerharre. Pa., who is now in the city in the interest of capital-ists from the western portion of his state. "Ho came here piielly," he said, ' for the purpose of looking the situation over, and did not intend to make any inveftuieuts until he had re-ported to his associates. Personally he was much pleased with tho results of his investigations and though he had expected great things his realizations had exceeded tho anticipations. There had been a growiug desiro among his friends for the past year to invest some of their money iu the west where it could be more profitably employed ban at tho low rate of interest ivhich it obtains at homo. After the collation of data from a wide sec-tion of country, they decided that Utah presented tho best opportunities and they had almost decided to come hero. The men be represented were of the highest rank in linancial circles many of them being interested in coal and iron mines. Since those industries had largely boon absorbed by the great trusts, the withdrawing interests had been on the watch for new lields." "Do the peoplo whom you repre-sent," asked the reporter, "expect to engago in tho iron and coal busiuesst" "Yes, those whom I immediately rep-resent if they conio here will probably purchase coal and iron lands and en-gage in tho manufacture of iron on a large scale. They are in no seuso real estate speculators but business men in the truest interpretation of tho term. I know of many others, however, who talk of coming here to make homes and make dilTerent classes of investments. There are thou-sands of people who are talking about. Utah, because tho environment in tlie east is getting too restricted and the chances for making anything but a bare living too small. '1 hey want air aud they imagiuo they can obtain it here. Orornlxrk llrnthnni Illock, The unsightly two-stor- wooden building between the St. Klmo and the Union block, which has been a real terror for so long to sen-sitive souls, is to be removed and a brick and stone business palace is t;i take its place. This is an exclusive bit of news that only a few could have gotten on to, but it is Htraigtit anil reliable. When the idea was first discussed it was intend-ed to raise the Union block three stories and make the now Groosbeok brothers' block har-monize with it; but for soineVeason not Riven, the owners could not agree on the construction, cost etc., so it was abandoned. Then independent plans were got out for a structure which met with the approbation of tne owners of tbe ground, and it is believed a contract was closed with the architect, although it is not stated positively. The build-ing is to be of a mixture of red aud Kyune sandstone, tho design of which indicates that it will bo very ornate and a decided novelty in its construc-tion. Its frontage will bo 45 feet and the depth 130. . THE 0LDF0UT BLOCK. Counsel for the City Files an Answer and Sets Forth the Facts in the Premises. THE TITLE TO THE GROUND.
