Judge Lynch reported an encourag-ing condition of the treasury. , Mr. Whlthoad moved the appoint-ment of a standing committee on trans-portation to be announced at tho next meeting. state of the Market. The Timks man took advantage of a few minutes' recess in tho meeting this morning to obtain a few expressions from among the assembled Napoleons of real estate 'regarding the present state of the market and its probable turn when spring fairly opens up. Col. Lett, oresiilent of the real pslolo exchange and an eastern real estate man said that he had witnessed the rapid, the unprecedented growth of such others as Omaha, Kansas City and Denver. But he believed the signs were far more propitious for Salt Lake than ever for these cities. Here not only in Utah, but t lie entire vast inter-mountai-region must be centred. The most enterprising men of the west have recognized this, aud today they are remembered among Salt Lake's citizens They would inevitably suc-ceed in making it a metropolis even if it lacked its magnificent natural advan-tages. This season would, in his opin-ion, witness the Second Trenieildtlntts Stride in the city's growth- - His own business already feels tho quickening influence of the approaching season, and he had no doubt that other real estate men could tell the same story. He is of the opinion that no other point in the country is so universally regarded as the Mecca of tint investor in the east Manager Neff of the Salt Lake Ab-stract and Title company, is not deal ing in real estate, but his business is directly connected with that of The Heal Fatal Hustler. Business is moving more rapidly than at this season last year and getting bet-ter every day. Ho has unbounded faith in Salt Lake's future and declares no niau will grow weary with waiting for tlie big things in store. Mr. Meloy was caught at the real estate exchange where ho was holding down the secretary's chair: "I would be glad if Tin: Timks would say," he asserted, "that 1 think the deals in Salt Lake Dirt this vear will be much greater than ever lief ore 1 am sincere, I don't deal In buncombe. I'll tell you why I have my opinion. 'There are millions of! dollars in the east that will come west this year and it will be loaned cheaply aud invested iu other ways, much of it right here. Money Is Fit4tir. You have doubtless heard that even-da-for a month. I'll give you substan-tial evidence of the truth of my state-ment. I know of a loan recently made for building purposes at '.) percent. For two weeks I have offered stvaral thousand dollars and can't find a bor-rower. And I know of other men whose experience has been the same within a few days past." Vesterdnv's Keal F.sfnte Transfers.

Cobl weather pre- - vails here and throughout the north-west. In this city tins morning the mercury was 11 below zero at 10 o'clock, and during the night it ranged from 'in to 2.r below in different parts of the city. In the Dakota the cold has f already begun to break the thermom-cter, being from 10 to !!0 degrees higher than the same time yesterday. CllirA(ii), Feb. 4." The temperature i last night was the coldest of the year. At live o'clock this morning the signal serice thermometer registered eight decrees below zero, but by 10 ;io it stood at zero. Prnti.o, Feb. 4 The snow blockade on the Santa Fe line near Palmer lake was only temporarily raised. Trains have hem in this vicinity since Sunday morning. Rlehei That Cam Too Lat A romantic but tragic event occurred in this city recently. A pine coffin and nnahronded corpee were all that was left to tell the story of a sad life and it end. The victim was John Jemisoo. He Hved what to many would be considered an uneventful life. Ilowever, without knowing it, he was heir to wealth greater than that attributed to the fabled Monta Crista He died so rOV la ready cash aa not to have enough to bury hira decently. J. 11. Summerlin, a prominent lawyer of this city, wan delving in some old, faded and musty letters which had be-longed to the deceased when he discov-ered the secret that makes the heirs of Jemison the owners of many million dol-lars' worth of property. The letter in question was written in 1836 by one of the heroes of the Texas struggle. Ha was a Capt. Jemison in the service of Gen. Sam Houston when Texas was a republic. In this epistle, which was written to a relative in Chicago, he says that he will not be able to return to the loved ones at his home, bnt that he ex-pects to meet the very fate that did be-fall him when some time after ho foil on the field, his heart pierced by a shot from the foe. Tho man who died here recently was his descendant in a direct line, and of bis identity there is not a doubt. Tha soldier who was his ancestor had prop-erty in three different states. These holdings were of comparatively trilling value, and Capt. Jemison was consider-ed a poor man when he died. Some of this land was located in the very heart of Chicago. A power of attorney has been received by the lawyer who made tho discovery, and has been filed with tho clerk of the count' court hero as a preliminary step toward tho recovery of some valuable property located in this city. Since the death of Capt. Jemison the property that was his has increased in value to such an extent that today the portion of it located in Chicago alone is estimated to bo worth $40,000,000, while the balance is as much more.

SENATOR PEFFER'S PLATFORM. A ftptech Delivered llelore the Kansas I.rglAlature. Senator Peffer I sjieech (Kansas City Journal. The president of the Senate announced that W. A. Peffer was elected United States senator, to take his seat March 4, 181)1. On motion of Sonator Roe the joint session was then dissolved. When the senate left the house there were loud calls for Peffer, and he was finally escorted into the hall an ex-tended speech, in part as follows: "It would hardly be proper to ad-dress this assembly as the joint conten-tion of the Legislature, inasmuch as the joint convention has been dissolued. However. I see before mo representa-tives of Kansas. You are commissioned to do the people's will, and I am here in response co your call, simply as one of the people to sy that we, the people have commenced the building of uew, distinct and independent political or-ganization fauiilausel based uoon orin- - ciples wrought deep as humanity. "Land is the common heritage of man, labor is the common lot of mor-tals. Transportation is one of the com-mon necessities of the people, while money is the oil which lubricates the machinery of oivilizaation. "Upon these fundamental idea we proposo to build the grandest political structure ever erected among men. And upon these we have formulated a creed. "We are opposed to the government issuing money to banking corperations. "We are opposed to the people's money getting to them frieghted down with interest charges. "We believe in the people making their own money. "Wo are op"po.ed to the national banking institutions for tho reason that they aid combines against the interests of the masses.

Russell, an old resident of Ari-zona, speaking of the trouble among the Indians, asserted that in his opinion tha most intelligent and at the same time the most cunning of the western sav-ages are the San Carlos Apaches. To them, according to Mr. Russell, is due the invention of the centre fire cartridge, "During the outbreak some eight or nine years ago," he continued, "their arms were all Winchester rifles of the rim fire pattern, and they soon exhaust-ed their supply of cartridges. They had plenty of powder, bullets utid percussion cups, but they were not available for breechloading guns. The cunning ras-cals had saved their brass shells, and, with surprising ingenuity, they altered the hammers of their guns, drilled holes through the center of the shells for tha caps, loaded them and used them dur-ing the rest of the war. It was discov-ered when they wero captured. They were, I believe, the first of the kind in use." San Francisco Call. Foster for the Treasury. Coli miii s, ()., Feb. 4.
