SALT LAKE'S FINANCIAL REP0ET. Trading on the Exchange to be Based on Strict Business Prin-ciples. Salt Lake will have a stock exchange. The committee appointed a week ago by the mining exchange to prepare a constitution and s met last even-ing at tho office of Colonel Murray and submitted a lengthy report. There were nearly 100 of Salt Lake's most prom-inent business men present, and Judge Bennett occupied tho chair. The con-stitution proposed by the. committee contains sixteen articles, divided into sections ranging from one to nine. Article I provides for a title and lim-its the membership to 100. The corpora-tion will bo known as the Salt Lake stock exchange. Article II invests tho board of direct-ors with all powers necessary for the government and management of the exchange. It gives the' directors power to try all offenses against the laws of the exchaugc, and all charges against members, on due representation; and the decision of tho board shall in all cases be final.

From its magnificent and eligible location, the fertility of the valley of which it is the distributing point, and its al-most midway position between the two oceans, there is no question in my mind but that Salt Lake City is bound to thrive and become a very im-portant center. Utah in the course of a few years will be admitted into the union. She already claims, by reason of her growth, the attention of congress with that end in view. The Union Pacific Railway company will derive incalcu-lable benefit from the growth of this new state, and the con-struction of branches, which will penetrate her rich valleys and give access to her rich mines, will doubtless become an imperative necessity in the near future. From the re-port of Government Director Spalding, of the Union Pacific, to the secretary of the interior. up and agitate a reduction of hours of labor and an increase in wages when he was an employer. But it was his principle he said and he believed in the carpenters demanding more wages and shorter hours. Ho desired to with them as it was mutually beneficial to both contractor and carpenter, as he claimed. Tho proposition for the ad-vance in wages and tho reduction in hours has caused alarm, and let it cause alarm, he said. Tho most dangerous element to the laboring man, he claimed, was not capital, but tho fellow-workma- n who worked by your side at the' bench. He was the greatest enemy of the labor-ing man. Of course all men were not such, but the speaker had reference to the man who sneaked around and tried to get your situation by undermining vou by working for less money. Mr. Devine urged the carpenters, like capitalists, to pool their issues, and it would be to the interest of the organ-ization, if not individually. "How do you stand?" asked Chair-man CowlS. "Are you in favor of nine hours, instead of ten, to constitute a day's work' Are you iu favor of an ad-vance in wages? If so, let it bo known by a rising vote." Every carpenter iu the hall roso to his feet, .and then there was great applause. Just before the meet-ing closed the chairman announced that a mass meeting would bo held in some large hall within a week to decide ou some action to tako when tho carpen-ters demanded their increase. After the open meeting was the union initiated its new mem-bers. Workmen are looking forward to May 1st with considerable anxiety. They deem their demand as just and fair, and arc acting in unison with the Fede-ration Trades of America. The Building Trades committees of Salt Lake also held a meeting last night in the h building and dis-cussed the situation. It was decided that the motto wo stand, di-vided we fall," holds good, and that what affected one branch of the build-ing trade affects it all. It was not defi-nitely settled that all branches would go out, if one of them went on a strike, but at the same time the following scale of prices was named as the union rates for tho coming season : Carpenters, per day of 9 hours J 3.50 Plasterers, per day of 8 days 4.1)0 Brick and stone lnasous.per day of 9 hours 4.00 Stone euttets, per day of 8 hours. 4.00 Painters, per day of 8 hours (formerly) $3 for 10 hours 3.00 Plumbers, per day of 9 hours 4.00 Hod carriers and laborers will receive from $2.75 to $3, according to tho num-ber of hours they work with the me-chanics in any of the above trades. LOOKS LIKE A .STHIKE. Salt Lake's Carpenters Preparing for a Reduction in the Hours of Labor. A ROUSING MEETING HELD. Over Fifty Carpenters Join the Union and Will Ask for Nine Hours for a Day's Work. Commencing the first of next month the carpenters of Salt Lake City will demand $3.50 a. day for nine hours work. If. their demand is not acceded to by the contractors and builders there will bo a general strike among thoso tradesmen, and from present indica-tion -- and encouragement from other trade unions they will be helped through the tight,. Last night about 100 carpenters of tho local union of tho Brotherhood of carpenters and joiners assembled in the Temple of Honor hall to discuss tho advisability of asking for an in-crease in wages and a reduction in tho hours of labor. The meeting was an open one aud A. D. Cowles presided over the gathering. Those who made speeches were W. A. McKenzie, R. G. Slcater, president of the federation of the trades council. Major Bynou aud James Devine. The union has fifty applications for admission to membership and at the meeting last night about thirty were initiated into the organization. After the chairman made a few intro-ductory remarks aud saying what was the object of the meeting, tho first speaker, Mr. W, A. McKenzie, was pre-sented. . Mr. McKenzie in his remarks said that as tho carpenters were the last to ask for an advance in wages and a re-duction in tho hours of labor their re quest could not be considered unrea-sonable and that up doubt it would be granted by the employers, provided the men stuck- - together to the end, as many of tho builders in town had said to him that it all .depended on that. Tho speaker further said that the in-crease asked was uot so great as that of the men in Chicago to begin with, and considering the cost of living here it was a long way under the price de-manded in the eastern cities, as most of the places asked for 40 cents per hour. He also said that If any trouble ensued here it would no doubt have a depress-ing effect on the Salt Lake boom, and the blame must be put whero it belonged, namely, to tho employers, as they were without a reasonable excuse of any kind for refusing this really moderate demand. Ho fur-ther said that ho wished it placed upon record that ho was opposed to any arbitrary or violent measures being re-sorted to by the men of the unions, aud challenged anyono to say that he had ever used ono unkind or abusive word in all of his dealings between employer or employee. That the men would win ho did not for a moment doubt, but that it would not do for thorn to be caught napping in this, as vigilance was what was needed, and a firm determination to se-cure their just rights. Tho speaker dwelt upon the various phases of tho labor problem in its intri-cate workings, for a short time, and then concluded by thanking tho men for their quiet aud respectable bearing during the long agitation of this meas-ure now before our people of Salt Lake City. Iu speaking of the matter It. G. Slca-ter said that the carpenters were asking for nothing unjust, aud it was a fore-gone conclusion that they would get their demands if they stuck together. It was important that they should stand up for their rights. At present it was a question between capital and la-bor," but if the laboring men would stand solidly together they could get any reasonable, demand that they might make. In Utah the laborers lire con-servative, he said, aud have worked ten hours loug enough. He was of tho opinion that a carpenter or, in fact, any other laborer could perform as much work in nine hours as in ten if the. laboror was a workman. He stated that ho had always contended for that principle. While house rent, liv-ing and real estate had advanced to a great extent the carpenters' wages were still in the same old rut as they were years ago. What was needed was for the men to stand shoulder to shoulder to shoulder and they would gain their point. It was not the carpenters alone who were interested in tho outcome of the proposed demand, but all trades-uuion- s were interested and would spend their last dollar to see that they got their just demands. Mr. Sleater concluded his talk by saying that the laboring class would soon he a power in congress. Major Bynou was next introduced aud stated that the carpenters alone could adjust their own differences, as thoso opposed to their demands which will go into effect Mav 1, would in a few days hide their heads aud tell you that they knew that the carpenters would win the light, and that thev themselves had always been iu favor of granting to the union its demands. Iu alluding to capital and labor tho major told the carpenters that thev had their capital in their muscle and "brain and could sell it at their own price. James Devine, a contractor, but also a carpeuter, made tho assertion that it might seem singular that he should get houses. It was given with the original scenery, uovel cfiects and a d and evenly good east. It was well worth seeing and created unusual enthusiasm." AMUSEMENTS. "A SIGHT-OFF- AT THE SALT LAKE THEATER. Daly's comedy-farc- e in live acts, en-titled "A Night Off," drew a large audience to the Salt Lake theater last evening, and to judgo from the hilarity of the people present, from parquette to gallery, everybody was more than pleased. The company is not a good ono as a whole, and while the very ac-ceptable work of Mr. Ferris as Jack, Mr. Burbridge as Snap and Miss Wil-lar- d as Nisby was commendable, that of the others lacked iu every essential of true comedy.

They Were Liberal with a Saloon Keeper ' and Got Little Money. A trio of burglars by the respective names of Charles Wilkinson, William Upton and Frank Collins, wero put ou trial before Judge Zaue in the district court, being charged with having bur-glarized a safe iu Joseph Dudley's sa-loon at Park City. The robbery is claimed to have taken place on the night of November 23 last. There was $700 in the safe but tho burglars suc-ceeded in getting only $25. Each of the defendants were put upon the stand this morning, and Wilkinson stated that Upton and Collins had noth-ing to do with the alleged burglary; that a man named James had told him (Wilkinson) that he owned half the amount of the money in the safe, and requested Wilkinson to get it from the safe while ho (James) was in conversation with the barkeeper. Wilkinson claimed that he, himself, was drunk at the time and that James had opened the safe for him. James was put ou the stand and said he did not havo any money iu the safe, and had never talked with Wilkinson about it, It was also brought out that the de-fendants attempted to break jail, but before they made their cscapo they were discovered and shackled. In its argument to the jury the de-fense claimed that James was the leader and at the head of the scheme to rob tho safe, but had recently turned state's evidence and had not been ar-rested. The jury after being out a half hour returned with a verdict convicting Wil-kinson and acquitting Upton aud Col-lins. Wilkinson was immediately sentenced by Judgo Zane, and in prouounciug sentence he referred to James as a dis-reputable witness by inducing another to commit a crime, and iu view of that fact Wilkinson was given only one year in the penitentiary.
