Lewis BRIGHAM CITY, Julyen the Prorancher montory, was exhibiting a pair of t worn onth. old lynx cats In Brigham City Wednesday, The cats ware captured by Mr. Whitaker on Promontory mountain a few dsj ago, after ha had kilted their mother with a rock, . The little cate retreated to the farthest comer of a rock cava follow. lAg the death of their protector, and Mr. Whitaker secured thorn with a wire noose, which he dropped over their heads, on at a time, and hauled them out. Mr. Whitaker said that he proposed to olthor oand the cats te the Salt Lake zoo or sell them to a moving picture producing company. 7. -- a return at the on the actual worth of the property ns fixed by the coromls This would represent at 18,500,900. t With what the actual amount of money Invested In stocks or bonds of tbs company may be, tbs commission bas noth - Ing to do, since it has determined --that the valuation of the property for purposes should be 88,500,000. . That valuation was determlnsd after s Inventory of the property had physical been made at the order of the commission, and all phases of the matter had been brought out at a publio bearing. The calculations were made en the basis of the 1918 business of the com pany. Tbs 1819 expenses also were taken into consideration, except that provision was mads for tbs increase of (251,(08.10 In wages, which wss the annual Increase, on the 1919 basis, awarded by the arbitrators between tbs company and tbs men last April. The company, for example, carried in 1019 14,694,958 passengers, who paid cash fare of six cents. The fares amounted to (881,(91.18. At seven cents, --Which will be the cash rats beginning tomorrow morning, the .Income would have been rate-maki- ng 1,028,846.84. Much Commutation Business There were 18.118,601 passengers carried in 1918 on the commutation tickets which cost five cents each. They paid 8905,880.15 into the companys coffers. Had they paid at the rate of six and cents, which most, (xopie will pay this month, and which all will pay after July 81, the companys revenue would have been 11,138,100.19. In 1919, 1,100,929 school tickets were turned over to the street cor conductors, each representing three cents to the company, or a total of 833,087.87, Had they been at the four-cerate effective under (hs new schedule, the revenue would have been one-quar- nt 144.087.18. total passenger revenue In 1918 amounts to 81,820,405.14, The seme passengers under the new rate would have paid 82,804,788.99, The Increase in revenue, therefore, on the 1919 business, with tbs new schedules applied, would have The been 8384,879.85. The average passenger In 1919 paid 1.889 cents for his rids. Under the new schedule, and with the same proportions of commutation tickets, he would have paid (.602 cents per tide. The total number of passengers carried !n 1919 was 83,909,484. For ths first flvs months In 1920 ths number of passengers has shown a healthy increase, about say 800,000 a month, or 10,000 passengers a day. Thera wers unusual considerations, however, which indicate that the increase at that rats would not keep up for the balance of the year, while ths Increase in rates itself may have some effect in decreasing ths number of passengers from what it would otherwise have been. Increase in Expenses. ' On the expense side, the Utah Light 4k Traction company expended tor labor In 1919 8744.213.06, exclusive of freight car motormen and conductors. The new wage It hae been calculated. If it had schedule, been in effect In 1919, would have Increased that amount by mors than a quarter of a million dollars, to 9998,119.48. Ths power bill was (178,963 69, and has not been altered as to rate. Taxes, after corrections wers mads by the commission on ths statement rendered by the com pony, amounted to about (104,000. Materials, supplies, and so on, cost In 1918 (210.390.10. For purposes of the Computation, this was token as practically constant figure. This gtvesTotal operating expenses on ths passenger side or the companys business as (1,487, 173.28. Subtracting that from ths gross passenger revenue as given above, the result gives ths net operating Income of (717,810.74, under the new rates and wage schedule, calculated on the 19l( volume of business, and expenses other than wages. . Two Deductions Made. From the net operating Income ths commission allows only two deductions, (144,725 for depreciation and (23,000 for deferred maintenance. Both these items represent heavy cuts from the figures asked by the company, and the differences account for a great part of the difference between the rates asked by the traction company and those allowed by the commission. with regard to depreciation allowance, the commission adopted the basts of supposing this fund actually set aside, invested at 5 per cent Interest, and made available only for replacement In the property. The company asked for a flat amount set up each year and Immediately available for replacement purposes, if re The qulred, but drawing no Interest oompany thought (286,000 about the proper amount. The commission cut this amount almost In half.' For deferred maintenance the company asked for (98,000 a year for three years. The commission argued that (23,000 a year for fotpr years would be all that was properly chargeable to the public, and It reached this conclusion after arguing that the company's propbeen allowed to depreerty ciate in value long before the uttlltles commission assumed office. In other words, It argued that before the commission earns Into existence, and when the company was not under Its regulation, the company had failed to spend money that should have been used In repairs on ths property. Deducting the depreciation and ths deferred maintenance allowances from the net operating Income, ths traction com- pony would have had, under the rates as now allowed, (549,825.74 as Its "return.1 y Retain of 6.47 Per Cent Over the use of this return the commission assumes no oontrol but It does assume to fix return that shall represent a fair rata of Interest on tha actual value of the property. - Binowtt has fixed . the value of the property at almost (8,, 600,000, It will be seen that on aucb a hypothetical set of circumstances the company would havs received (.47 per cent on that amount. Commissioner Warren Stoutnour - yestook the position that, aside from terday any consideration as to whether It would he possible for the traction company to yo Into ths money market under present c- .ilons and obtain money at such a of Interest, there are two Items to bo ered with regard to ths abovs eal- e t ions. Ths first Is that, under the e- allowances noted above. It has mrt n demonstrated that the property of t e eonony was gradually slipping down h 1.

Tbs question was placed before ths court to the case of Emma S. Berger against Salt Lake, and. as ths supreme court notes, until this case was decided, ths question was an open one In this .jurisdiction. The case recalls the unusually heavy On snowfalls of the winter of 1918-1Christmas day, as the court notes, there was an unusually heavy fall of snow, following a heavy precipitation of snow throughout the month, and the total snowfall for that month was thirty-on- e Inch More snow fell in January. On 15 Mr. Bcrger fell onto hill January on the west side of North Main street, just south of First North. Both bones of her left arm were broken. She later presented a claim to the city that the was uneven on surface of ocount of ths melting and freezing of accumulations of snow while the street was subjected to pedestrian traffic. She filed a claim with ths city for 91000. When this was denied she sued In ths court for (5000 and a jury, awarded a verdict of (1500, from which ths city appealed. The supreme court reversed the decision on two counts, Ths verdict should not, on ths showing made, ths court rules, have been upheld for a larger amount than was origtnaUy claimed. Inasmuch as ths stats law Is speciflo on this point, and no reasons wers alleged for subsequently claiming larger damages. Tbs district court, ths supreme court says to this regard, "ignored ths legislative requirement that ths amount of damages be stated In the claim," and the comment Is added that such a stand 'amounts to a judicial repeal of an Important provision of the statute.' Wjth regard to the duty of Salt Lake in clearing from snow Its 1004 miles of sidewalks. Including 396.97 miles of paved walks, tha decision points out that In Utah, and specifically In Salt Lake, to keepn the sidewalks clear Of snow would be a "most extraordinary task." It adds: To characterise as negligent a failure of the cities and towns of this stats to keep the sidewalks free from natural accumulations of snow and ice Is contrary to both reason end common sense. The law, does not condemn an act or omission as negligent which can only be done or prevented by the exercise of extraordinary exertion or care, or by tbs expenditure of extraordinary sums of money. The law requires only that which Is reasonable." The decision Is unanimous. Ths opinion Is written by Justice J. B. Frick.

Mr Josephto Cbrlls Whan Andrew C. Rasmussen and Emily entered Into a contretto purchase a house and lot on payments of 915 a month "until the whole of said purchase price, (2150, has been ''paid, with Interest, on all deferred payments at the rate of 9 per cent per annum the 915 was to be applied on the Interest payments to date, and when the Interest was taken care of the balance of th 915 was to be applied on the principal in the decision of th supreme court, handed down yesterday. The suit is from th Second district, and was brought by Elisabeth Powers against the Rasmussen David C. Lawson, seller of ' the hous and others. It was shown that th Rasmussens had paid their (15 a month regularly, and that it had been accepted and the payments had been applied as above stated. However, th district court ruled that the monthly payment should have been 515 to apply on the principal and In addition thereto interest for th preceding months on the deferred payment The contract for sale and deed between Lawson and th Rasmussens had been placed to escrow, and Lawson had subsequently mortgaged his interest to the property to Ralph E. Hoag, who assigned to the plaintiff In the case. When she attempted to foreclose on the mortgage the Lawsons resisted, and the suit followed. The district court gav th Rasmussen sixty days In which to raise 51229.13, It considered as post due under their agreement to purchase. The Rsmun supreme court orders ths district court to set aside th default findings and to make the rights of th Rasmussens to the property superior to those of th plaintiff. The latter.
