YET THE GENERAL SITUATION IS MORE REASSURING. Canadian immigration lor at least ninety days. Washington, Sept 14. Law officers of the government are looking up the legal powers of the prefdent in the matter of a temporary suspension or prohibition of im-migration. Nothing, however, has yet been done on the subject. In Other Land. Havre, Sept. 14. There were eleven new cases and seven deaths of cholera reported here yesterday. This is an increase of one new case and a decrease of six deaths com- - pared with the previous day. Tub Hague, Sept 14. There was a death from cholera yesterday in Maaslins, South Holland. One case of the disease is reported at Elburg on the Zuyder Zee. London-- , Sept. 14. The steamer Holder-nes- s from Cronstadt has arrived at Hull and reports two of the crew to have died of Asi-asti- c cholera. A Storm Prevents Communication With the Islands. THOSE WHO MAY DIE ON BOARD MEANTIME MUST REMAIN. Passengers on the Rttgia Protest Against Their Removal From the Boat, Preferring to Remain Rather Than Share the Experience of the Xormaala-Ietr- oit Asks for Pro-hibition of Immigration for Ninety Iays The President's Powers In the Hatter Looked Into. Wall Street Scared. Wall Street, Sept. 14. The news that five deaths had occurred in this city from cholera became known on the stock ex-change during the last hour of business. It resulted at once in a stam-pede by the traders an prices fell 1 to per cent, the trading being very heavy on decline. The selling scare was generally looked on as unreasonable, and it was thought after the exchange closed that traders would be anxious to get their stocks back tomorrow. New Steamer, New Cases. Quarantine, Sept. 14. Steamer Majestic, with 507 cabin passengers, has arrived. All well on board. She will probably be de-tained till morning. The tank steamer Hel-igoland, Captain Donklage, which arrived last night from Altoca-on-Cllii- e, little be-low Hamburg, aud now anchored in the lower bay, had two deaths on board among her crew from cholera. New York, Sept. 14. The board of health announced this afternoon that from bactere-logic- al examination made by Prof. Her-man Briggs ou the bodies of several sus-pected cholera patients there have been five deaths from Asiatic cholera in the city of New York. The names of those who died from cholera are: Charles McAvoy, died September 6, address not known; Mrs. Sophia Wigman, died September 10, at 7GS Eleventh avenue; "William Wigman, husband of Sophia Wig-ma- n, died at the same address the following day; Minnie Levanger, child, died Septem-ber 11, at 411 East Forty-sixt- h street; Char-lott- a Beck. 30 years old, died yesterday fore-noon at 17&4 Second avenue. AU these cases were originally reported to the health authorities as suspected cholera, and have been under the investigation of physicians connected with the department. Prof. Herman Biggs, who is in charge of the division of patheology and bactereology, has been making: bactereological examinations of the intestinal fluids taken from the bodies of suspected cases. He reported to the de-partment this afternoon the result of his ex-aminations and announced unhesitatingly that the cases were Asiatic cholera without a doubt. William Wigman was 52 years old and his wife, Sophia, was 63 years old. He had been sick for eight days and his wife had been sick for about the same length of time. She died on Saturday and he - on Monday. The physicians in attendance reported they believed the cases ""to" "be' cholera and by order of the board of health the bodies were removed to the detention hospital, where they were examined by rroi. Diggson. vnarioiia Deck ox no Second avenne, was found sick in her apart-ments yesterday morning. She was attended to by Dr. Vandergaltz, who saw her at 9:30 o'clock. He reported to board of health that he believed it to be cholera. She, too, was removed to the detention hospital till her death, which occurred at 11:30 the same day. Charles McAvoy was 35 year old and a plaster's assistant. He died at 879 Tenth avenue. Minnie Lovinger was one year and eight months old. She died at 411 East Forty-s-ixth street, where her parents lived. The physicians have been unable to find out how the cholera was contracted in each one of these cases. So far as they have been able to learn, none of the dead persons came in con-tact with cholera germs. Every precaution has been taken to prevent the spread of cholera in these different houses. The bed-ding has been burned and the houses placed under observation. A 8torm Interrupts Communication. New York, Sept. 14. The storm is still raging in the bay and it is impossible to ob-tain any news from the vessels at anchor. At a late hour last night Dr. Byron on Swinburne island telegraphed Dr. Jenkins that the surf was running high and that it was exceedingly dangerous to put off in their small tugs for the usual tour of in-spection. Dr. Jenkins wired back not to make the attempt, which means that for a period of hours, perhaps a day or two, all communica-tion is cut off between the sick on the in-fected vessels and the doctors on Swinburne and Hoffman islands. Those who may die during that period on the Scandia, Rugia, Wyoming or Moravia must remain on board. More Satisfactory. Quarantine, Sept. 14. The steamers d, Maasdam aud Diadem were re-leased at 11:25 a. m. Dr. Jenkins arose this morning much refreshed after the first de-cent night's re6t, undisturbed by worry or being awakened by midnight callers. Things are very quiet here after the last few days' excitement, The news he gives out today ought to cheer the Normania cabin passen-gers. He said he would most certainly release them tomorrow. . As regards the cabin pas sengers of the Rugia, he would, if nothing developed, transfer them to the New Hamp-shire, thence land them on Fire " island as; soon as accommodations can be arranged. The husband of one of the saloon passengers on board the Rugia just stated that his wife in a letter to him states that the cabin pas-sengers of that steamer do not wish to be taken out of the Rugia. They have entered a protest against being moved. They are afraid of going through the same experiences as those of the Normania. He says they are not all afraid of stopping on the Rugia. No arrangements have yet been made for the twenty cabin passengers of the Scandia, but Health Officer Jenkins Bays he is considering the feasibility of putting them on board the Cephens and anchoring her in the lower bay. No cabin passengers will be landed on Sandy Hook. Dr. Jenkins said he was highly gratified with the progress of the suffering cholera patients and the apparent check which has been put on the foul dis-ease. He is not prepared to say there is still no cause for alarm, as he is not omnipo-tent, although he tried to be omnipresent. To Stop Immigration. Detroit, Sept. 14.

But the Tendency to Iteprodactiou of Water Is an Omi-nous Symptom and Another Opera- - tion Is Uerraed Xecessary Today Removal to Washington Is Impos-sible. Loon Lake IIolse, N. Y., Sept. 14. Doc- - tors Gardner of Washington, Doughty o" New York and Trudeau of Sarnac had a consultation at the president's cottage this. ' morning with regard to Mrs. Harrison and at its close issued the following statement: $ "Primary disease, pulmonary tuberculosis of the right side, associated with nervous Recent complication, sub-acu- pleurisy, with rapid effueion of water in the right vhpst, necessitating two tappincs with some relief. Present condition critical, on account of a ten-dency to reproduction of fluid. Removal to "Washington impossible. Prognostication as to immediate future unc3rtain. A Fatal End Intimated. Lieutenant Parker said this morning: ''The president will remain with Mrs. Harrison until she gets better, and has no other plans whatever." It is therefore apparent that the president's stay here is indefinite. The physicians, it is said, have quietly intimated the strong probability of a fatal result. The president rarely leaves Mrs. Harri-son's bedside. In fact, he really shares in the nursing of the invalid with the profes- - ; signal attendant.. - Russell Harrison an-- l Mrs. McKee, the - president's-.- f on and.. daughter, are also in constant attendance. It is understood that another operation will be performed this afternoon. A MASSACHUSETTS REPUBLICAXS Sound to the Core On All Things Save Silver. Boston, Sept. 14. The Republican stata convention was held in Tremont temnle to-day. Eben S. Draper was temporary chair-man and Charles H. Allen permanent chair-mai- n. The platform adopted is opposed to the inflation of the curren-cy either by incontrovertable paper nmney or the free coinage of 6ilver. Demand is made that a legal barrier be interposed against indiscriminate immigration. Nathaniel P. Banks and John D. Long were unanimously nominated for electors at large. BARGAINING. The Democrats of South Dakota Eager to Sell Oui Principle. Yankton, S. D., Sept. 14. The Demo-cratic executive committee and Demoratic nominees are engaged in a conference in re-gard to fusion with the Independents oo the electoral ticket and one or two state offi-cers. The Independents are not inclined to, concede much and the whole matter will probably be referred to a committee for nt. Wyoming Republicans. Labamie, Wyo., Sept. 11 The Itepnbll,. can state convention was called to order m this city this morning by Senator James M. Cary, chairman of the state committee. Cary addressed the convention, credifim Harrison with fulfilling the pledges of tba party the nearest of any president since the days of Washington. , Charles K. Kelsey of Eock Sprin gs was made temporary chairman. After tbe ap. pointment of committees the convention adjourned until this afternoon. Democratic, Jersey Men. ' Trenton, N. J., Sept. 14. The Democratic ttatfl rnnvpntian war railed t.n cirA-- tt i afternoon. Allan T. McDermott, chairman, of the state committee called the convention to order. The permanent organization was effected by electing E D. McDonald of Hud-son as permanent chairman. The platform adopted endorses .Cleveland and Stevenson and reference is made to the abolition of the state tax by a Democratic government, thus lightening the public burden. All alleged partisan legislation is defended in detail. THE ENEMY ' llie Council A:ain Eefases to Confirm the Barber Earg-aiu- . BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS HAS ANOTHER CHANCE. The Property Owners Must Be Con-sulted This Time. THE CAUSE OF HOME INDUSTRY GOES MARCHING ON. The Council Calls the board's Atten-tion to the People's Loud Protect fcnd the Drniand for the Recognl-tio- n of Home Industry The i'acts IIirepresented in the Morning spnper The Property-Own- - ers w in Kettle It If the Council's Wishes Are Regarded. If you want to know the news as it is, it is necessary to read '1'hb Times, which is not subsidized. Any one who read the careless accounts of the city council meeting of Inst evening in this ruoruiug's papers would think the paving contract had teen referred back to the board of public works with power to take final action, and that the fight for home industry and Utah material was lost. The council did nothing of the kind. The Barber paving monopoly was knocked down in the council last night and only its final interment was deferred. The council squarely refused to confirm the Barter contract. It referred the whole matter back to the board of public works and requested that body to report Friday evening. In doing so it called its attention to the protest of the people against the Bar-ber contract and the wide-sprea- d demand lor the recognition of Utah labor and ma-terial. The object of this action, it is plain, is to give the board of public works an op-portunity to pass again on this important contract, with the full light of evidence and public opinion that has been presented dur-- " iuz the past two weeks. If the Barber men had had a majority in the council last night they would have j promptly confirmed the award. The majority was actually ontfce side of home industry and public opinion, and that is why the council refused its consent to the Barber contract. ; ui.ii niv, uuui u Ui putJliC M UiKS U dS rCU- - dercd its report the couneil will confirm or reject it. The thousands of people who have stood by Thk Times in its fight against the insolent paving monopoly, that has come here to ask Utah to repudiate her own re-sources, may be assured that last night's ac-tion was a black eye for the Barber company and a forward step for home industry. The war is not over yet, but the public enemy was repulsed last night, and the people are mm china: on, with every reason to expect a splendid and decisive victor-- . THE COUNCIL'S ACTION. At last night's session of the city council F. H. Young and 110 other property owners, representing Ce3.) feet of , real estate on Main anl First aud Second South streets, abuttiug the district to be paved, was read, which f.aked that the paving contracts on said Urocts be awarded to the Cu'imer-Jenning- s toinpany. Tt was reinforced by another peti-tion, signed by 200 property own-ir- , asking that the work be siven to home people, that home material be used and home workmen employed. Both petitions were laid ou the table un-til the report of the special committeee was received, but no further action was had, as the committee reported that they bad in-spected the bids in the office of the board of yublic works, hnd found nothing informal, tud they were of the opinion that they were U made in good faith. 'llie committee, therefore, in view of thu widespread interest which had been awakened and the vast nam-Si- t of protests aud petitions which had been Died, recommended that the whole matter be referred bacK to the board of public Hulks, WHO AVEUE HEQVE3TED TO CONFEH TIT11 THE PROPERTT OWNERS WHO WILL havk to koct TDK isiLLs, and report back 'le:i findings to the council by Friday uit'ht. 'lh report was adopted, and Moran fhowrd his colora by saying that he hoped the board would report it back with the rec-ommendation that the contract be awarded to the lowest bidder. assist in bringing this thing about. The people are deeply interested in the outcome of this matter, and they should have the full-est opportunity to know what is going on. WHAT IT MEANS. The Action of the Council Means Death to the Barber Octopus. The statement in this morning's Tribune that the city council had referred hack the report awarding: the paving contract to the Barber Paving company with power to act, created quite a flurry among the property-owner- s and merchants interested, but an in-vestigation proved that it was not founded on fact, and in consequence the excitement was short-live-d. DThe reference of the report back to the; board is simply for the purpose of giving the board an opportunity to reconsider their action, and in doing so they are instructed to confer with the property owners interest-ed, and learn their views. The action also has a deeper significance, for it means that the Barber octopus has been throttled and its power to do further mischief forever crushed. The board must either reconsider its award or there, will not be any paving dona on the streets this winter. It means home men and products or nothing. A majority of the council are pledged to sustain home industries, and in referring the award back to its sponsors they were well advised of the nature of the sequel. Couut-ilrne- Rich, Folland, Wantland, Moran and Lawson were seen by a Times re-porter today, and they virtually admitted that the programme outlined in the forego-ing was substantially correct. TO FhOPfRTI OWNERS. They Wan t to Meet the Board in Mass Meet-ing and Before the Public. The important fact about the action of the city council last evening is that it requests the board of public works to call tha prop-erty ovt ners together and learn their wishes baforc awarding the contract again. As rtiore than two-third- s of the owners of abut- - ( 'ling property have already petitioned the lity council to give the wcrk to a home com-pany- , and to have the streets paved with Utah asphalt, there cannot be the slightest question about what the result will be if their wishes are respected. TnE Times asks the board cf pub'ic works to call the property-owner- s together in a public mss meeting, to which reporters hall be admitted, so that the whole subject may now be ventilated in broad daylight. It will not bo right to have the property, owners privately buttou-hole- d or to have i ) the matter considered in 6tar chamber pro. cccdings. Let it be a mass meeting of property-owners- , who shall come together in response to a call of the board of public works and let the proceedings be fully re- - ported in the newspapers. The friends of home industry and Utah material wish to do nothing in the dark. They are willing to meet the issue fair and square before the public and to let every-body know what is to be said for or against them. The board of public works will earn the gratitude of the people by adopting this open and above board course and will avoid all complaints of unfair dealing that might iterward arise. Property owners should SUND AY REST Business Suspended Out of Kegard for the Eevival Services, BUT THE ATTENDANCE FALLS SHORT OF EXPECTATIONS. The Great Tent Is Scarcely Half Filled With Worshipers, BUT THEY ARE GOD-FEARIN- G CHRISTIAN MEN AND WOMEN, Though the Absence of Those for Whose Benefit the Day Was Set Apart, the Clerks and Shop tilrls. Etc., Was Conspicuous. Sunday in the middle of the week is a pe-culiar phase of Salt Lake business life to-day. To all practical extents today more closely resembles the day of rest than any of like nature that the people have seen for a long period of time. The closed shops and stores, a practical cessation of traffic in the marts of trade, well-dresse- d young men and young women bound for church, with gilt-edge- d Bibles clasped in their hands, present a picture worthy of study by the philosophical, but wayward, individual. The lacking feature to the resemblance of Sabbath was a closing order from the mayor in regard to the saloons. The morning service at the Mills tent could hardly be called the success that the sanguine anticipated in 60 far as the audi-ence was concerned. Surely, after Mayor Baskin had proclaimed that the day be given over to religious wor-ship the great tent 6hould have been crowd-ed to the t;uy ropes this morning. There should not have been a single vacant seat be-neath the rippling cauopy which sheltered the evangelist and his auditors from the sun's rays. Mayor Baskin himself should have been present at the meeting this morning. A mayor should not be without religion in his own proclamation. But the reporter searched the audience in vain for a glance at the sturdy Roman who wields the mayor's scepter. He was not present. The kindly countenance of even a councilman, his brow contracted in deep, earnest thought, failed to reward the inquisitous gaze of the re-porter. There was also a dearth of store clerks and 6hop girls, for whose especial benefit the day was given over to religious worship. But there were many God-fearin- g Christian men and women present. There were, pef haps, 1500 people in the tent when a EVANGELIST MILLS AROSE and said: "I think it about time that we all join in thanksgiving for the great religious mani-festation of this city and the blessings of God upon this people. I will call upon Brother Greenwood to lead in prayer." Rev. Greenwood praised the Lord for the interest taken in the meetings and the workings of the Lord upon the hearts of the business men in such a marvelous way. We believe that there are mighty things in store for the people of this city, when it shall spread broadcast that the merchants o! this city closed their places of business and allowed their employes to attend these meetings. Rev. Mills then announced that the ser-vices would open with a short thanksgiving meeting. "Let each person," said the evan-gelist, "who has something to be thankful for arise and say so. Be short, and if you have nothing fresh to be thankful for, keep still. Don't tell us of something that oc-curred fifty or sixty years ago. "Let it be fresh aud to the point." A number of persons arose and testified to their thankfulness. Evangelist Mills took his text from a por-tion of the eleventh chapter of John. "I believe it always requires more love in God to say no than to say yes. I believe that to have a prayer answered, unless your heart is right, is worse than a curse to you." The text spoken from was: "The Master is come and calleth for thee." Rev. Mills said: "I desire to speak to you of the sickness, death and burial and resurrection of Laz-arus. I believe that a time of revival is a time of the softening or hardening of the heart. The miracle which raised Lazarus to life raised a belief in the hearts of some of the Jews, yet it hastened the crucifixion of the Messiah. I believe in most of the ma-chinery of the modern church; I believe in the evangelists of a church, but when the church members depend solely upon the min-isters and evangelists that belief becomes a curse. It is a great thing to HAVE A HEART FOB A KEV1VAU Whatever prejudice person may have, no matter how well grounded, there is not a person in Salt Lake, who is acquainted with the Holy Ghov, doubts the spirit is moving the people of 'his city. It is a sad thing when the work of God is progressing by the work of the Holy Ghost and a portion of the Chris-tian people stand idly by. No matter what may be Baid of ordinary recreation at other at a time like this is a crime. The power you want is the power of a personal inter-view with Christ the power they had at Pentacost. That is what we need in Salt Lake. I believe that if the people of Christ were loyal and in earnest, I believe that there would not be a person convicted of sin in the city. I believe in tears. I believe we need a bap-tism of tears, of melted hearts. What is there that keeps your friend an unsaved sinner? Some sin In you. The love of the praise of men rather than the love of God. If you have bitterness in your heart you have Deen a murderer. I have seen some things in these meetings in this city that have made my heart leap for joy. I have seen ministers, ushers and church people go down into the audience and PLEAD WITH THE SINNERS to come into the fold. But three-fourth- s of the church people have sat like icicles, and done nothing to help advanca the cause of Christ in these meetings. You ought to go to the sinner and plead with bim, and put your arm under his elbow and help him to stand up for Christ. But you haven't done this." The evangelist talked earnestly from the text "The Master is come and calieth from thee." At the conclusion of his discourse he asked those who had brothers or sisters, or fathers or mothers or daughters out of Christ, or those who de-sired to follow the Savior, to rise and stand during prayer. Almost the entire audience aroso to their feet. Men and women were in tears, and some of the men snuffled sus-piciously or blew their nose with unneces-sary emphasis. In closing the services the evangelist said, "Let me ask you today not to give your mind to frivolity." "When you go about the city let your hearing be as though your heart and mind bad been touched by the finger of God." AT THE AFTERNOON SERVICES in the Mills meeting, about 1800 people were present. The song service was unusually interesting, and the closest attention was paid to the remarks of the evangelist. Tomorrow afternoon Rev. Mills will take as his subject, "Can a Man be Spiritually Clean while Physically Alive " In the evening tomorrow he will preach a sermon especially to young men, although all.people axe invited to this service. A REVEREND SCAMP. That Is What G. M. Thorp Is Alleged to Be. HIS EXPERIENCE IN SALT LAKE. Interested Parties Are Following: It, and If Their suspicions Are Con-flrm- ed It Will Be Well for air. Thorp to Leave Town for the Bene- - fit of Mis Health. The Rev. Mr. Knight, who temporarily fills the pulpit of Rev. Mr. Clay of the Christian church, was to perform a mar-riage ceremony at the early hour of 8 this morning, but he didn't. Indeed if all the things that are told about the would-b- e groom on this occasion prove true, there may be another ceremony in store for him, consisting in an application of tar and feathers. On August 12 the Cowgill, Mo., Chief con-tained the following notice: Rev. G. M. Thorp cf the M. E. c hurca, who de parted some three weeks since, ostensibly to hold a protracted meeting at Lucerne, has not re-turned, and several creditors mourn bim as lost. We understand he also forgot to leave quite an amount of parsonage money which he had col-lected. "Sich la life--" Now it is this self same Rev. G. M. Thorp who was to play the very important part of groom in the wedding proceedings Ibis morning. It seems that when he left Cow-gi- il he also left the Methodist church and a week ago last Sunday Joined the Christian church in this city, being immersed therefor. Although his stay in this city is but a brief one it was snfficleut for Thorp to worm himself into the affection of Miss Wilson, the daughter of the policeman, and it was she who was to be given to him for better or worse until . death do them part, when her father heard of the es-capades and spoiled the little affair. There-upon Mr. Thorp threatened to kill himself, but up to the time of going to press he has desisted. He is as handsome a man as could be found in this city, only 22 years old and as plausible a fellow as can be found in three counties. Those who profess to know something more of his antecedents claim that he has already one trustful wife and two little cherubs back in Missouri, and if they verify their suspi-cion, the temperature in this region about the vicinity of Mr. Thorp may rise to the boiling point. ODD FELLOWS HERE. Grand Sire Bushy Is With the Party. THE! VISITORS ENTERTAINED. A rive Over the City and a Trip to the Lake-Recept- ion at Odd Fel-lows' Hall This Even Inc. A large number of distinguished Odd Fe-llow, including the chief officers of the order, arrited in Salt Lake this morning over the Union Pacific en route to Portland to attend the session of the Sovereign grand lodge of the world, which convenes next week. The persons of chief interest in the party are the important officers of the order, hold-in- ? sway over the Odd Fellows of the world. Charles M. Busby of Raleigh, K. C, is a grand sire of the sovereign grand lodge of the world. He is a prominent lawyer of the Carolinian capital and is a typical Southern gentleman, energetic and talented. He bring" with him his wife, a charming lady who will gracefully help him carry the hon-ors of his positiou. C S. Campbell of Toronto, Canada, is a deputy grand sire. He is a physician und a leading citizen of Toronto, and bears the distinction of being the only high officer of the order ever chosen out of the United State. There is little doubt that he will succeed Mr. Busby as graud sire. The grand secretary is Theodore A. Ross oi oi imous, vnio. lie succeeded James L-- Ridzely, who was for forty years grand secretary and who more than any other man deserves the credit for the upbuilding of the order.' Mr. Ku.s was assistant secretary lor many years and has rilled the office of grand secretary with much credit, fully us much, in . lact, as Mr. Ridgely him-self.- Mr. Normau, secretary of the Colorado graud lodge, having been officially clooe to Mr. Ross lor ten years, speaks in highest term Of his peculiar abilities and his fitness for the position he holds and ex-presses the belief that he will be to the important office. Grand Treasurer Isaac A. Shepard of Phil-adelphia is another of the dignitaries of the visiting party. He has lor many years oc-cupied with credit the positiou he now holds Grand Chaplain Venabie is an elderly Ken tucky gentleman, who will furnish proptf admonition and cheeriul good will to the traveling party. J. C. Underwood of Chicago is com-mander of the Patriarchs Miiitaut and as such has built up wonderfully that particu- lar branch of the order. There are in the party about 300 persons, and; they .were met at the depot this morn-ing by a reception committee, consisting of Messrs. Rogers, Hoge, Buckle, Moritz, Rowe and Tuoinas, The visitors were shown to carriages, and after driving around the city and visiting all points of interest, took the tram for the lake at 2 p. m. They will return at about 5 and will be given a recep- tion at L O. O. F. hall on Market street this evening at 7 o'clock. After; the reception the visitors will be es-corted back to the depot, and will resume their j'urney at 9 .30 p. m. TbeX'tahHelegates will leave for Portland tomorrow,, v ' ' ... . - : J--V FUltSUIT.

The Kirkbeck bank opened this morning at. the usual hour and business was continued. Those who still desire to withdraw deposits are for the mot part workingmen. The higher class of de-positors, who have large sums in the bank, have recovered from their scare and were not conspicuous in the lines this morning. ALDERMAN P. MORAN Talks Entertainingly on Municipal Topics. HE IS STILL LABOR'S CHAMPION. The Reasons He Asstisns For His Peculiar Filihupterin;; Tactics in the City Council Last Mght-I- Ie I a Hewer Slan From Top to Bottom, Rut Wants to Re Sure He Is Right Before Going Ahead. Alderman Patrick Moran was in a cheerful humor when a Times representative accosted him this afternoon and asked him what he meant by his filibustering parliamentary tactics in the city council last night. "I mean," he replied, "that I do not pro-pose to lose my individuality in that way. I propose that I shall be consulted in all matters that 1 am interested in aud that un-less I am shown some consideration I will continue to fight in my own way." , - Will not your action in the, sidewalk scheme and concerning the sewers militate against the interests of labor, of which you are the acknowledged champion in the coun- - - "Not at all," was the reply. "I knew ex-actly what I was doing, and the interests of labor will never suffer from any act of mine. I opposed Wantland' s sidewalk scheme on First and Second South streets because it is not a matter of record that the property-owner- s who will be called upon to foot the bills want the improvements. I do not believe in compelling any one to lay sidewalks against their will or unless a majority of the people interested petition for it. In my opinion, it is simply a scheme to advance the sale of real estate." "How about the sewers?" was the next question. "I want It distinctly understood," said the fighting alderman, "that I am a sewer man from toe to crown. I want to see them con-structed, but at the same time I want to be sure that we are acting legally. The mayor vetoes the ordinances oi the ground that the supervision of the work should be vested in the board of public works instead of ; being placed under the control of the supervisor of sewers as the ordinances contemplated. The mayor is a lawyer and may be right. But I don't know that, and I want an opinion from a less disinterested lawyer. No verbal opin-ions from the city attorney go with me; I want an opinion in writing so it will become s matter of record." , "What was your object in endeavoring to have the words 'the work be done by con-tract' inserted in the ordinances?" "Oh," lauarhed Pat, "that was part of my play. I knew that such a proposition would not be entertained, but at the same time it is perfectly legitimate. The board of public works, as I understand, was created for the sole purpose of attending to contract work. If the sewers come under their jurisdiction why not be consistent and call for bids for their construction? Iam not in favor of it by any means, and that is another reason why I want other legal advice than that which has been received. For two years and a half the city council has ordered work done, and none can say that it has not been done to the satisfaction of all, and I can see no good reason why this new kink should now be sprung. The whole busi- - ness will be fixed satisfactorily Friday night, and there will be no delay in pushing the needed improvements to a completion." "How about the needed waterinains?" was question number three. "They should be purchased at once. It ia folly to delay it longer. The water commit-tee's answer to the mayor's 'roast' in my opinion conclusively shows that the blame for the delay is placed where it properly belongs. I have the opinion of just as good a lawyer as the mayor or City Attorney Hoge that the committee in calling for bids and then submitting them to the council wa3 a proper one. Believing that the committee has performed its work well, I am satisfied to allow the people to render a verdict as to who is to blame in tha matter." By this time the aldermen were perspiring at an alarming rate, but his smile was as 1'heery and his look as bonny as in anti-Jelecti-days when he said, at parting: "I m as much the friend of labor as ever I was, and the next few days will prove it. You can also say for me that I believe the Barber Paving company has received its death blow in this paving contract business." . . A caucus of the delegates from Salt Lake county to the Republican terri-torial convention will be held at headquarters, in the Wasatch buildi-ng1, this evening. Business of gTeat importance will be considered-an- d every delegate is urged to be present. THE LECtAL LEXICON. Mrs. Malquist" Sues For a Divorce and Alimony. IT IS DESERTION AND CRUELTY. John R.

HE FINDS HER IN THIS CITY, Rut He Is Repulsed from Her Domi-cile by Brave Boys In Blue "If she Could Only See He She Would Return to He," Is HU Cry He Will Endeavor to Retrain Her by Legal means. A wild-eye- d Frenchman has been haunting the byways and highways of Zion for some time past, and occasionally he has been heard to murmur: "She would come back to me if she could only see me." Yesterday he learned that "she" was a domestic in the em-ploy of Dr. Kendall, a surgeon at Fort Douglas, and thither he made his way. He made known bis desire, bnt the door, according to his story, was closed in his face and his retirement from the prem-ises was ordered by two muscular soldiers who were not over tender in the operation. He then resolved to secure legal aid, and today he has haunted the legal pre-serves for an attorney who will secure him his wife on the promise to pay when the job is done. . He is a great believer in the effici-ency of a writ of habeas corpus, and it is probable that the legal machinery will be set at work tomorrow. From a young attorney who believes that one dollar In the hand is better than fifty on the bush, a Times reporter heard the discon-solate husband's story. Hit name is se Joseph Bordeaux and the "she" in the days of her maidenhood answered to the name of Mary Horteuse Deulzlinger. On the 18th of August. 1S86, they became one in a quiet town in France, and having quite a snug sum at their disposal, they emi-grated to the land of the free and eventu-ally settled down, as they believed then, for life, on a fertile farm near Glcnwood Springs, CoL Apparently, they loved each other devoutly, but the wife tired of her marital ties aud the prosaic calling oi an agriculturist, and on May 15, 1S92, left her husband's domicile and proceeded towards the setting sun. In Zion she found a haven of rest and a home as a servant in Dr. Kendall's family, and, until the appearance of Alphonse at the reservation, she fondly be-lieved that she would be allowed to live her life according to her own sweet will. Alphonse, however, declares thai he can-not live without her, that he is amply able to care for her, and will never rest content until she returns to his Gallician bosom. The conclusion of the romance will in all probability be related in a court of law. -- ....-- - .... LATE CITY NEWS. . . , . Mrs. Walter Brand has gone to New York to visit relatives.
