SALT JjAKE. Dec. 12. Commissioner John. P. Knapp called upon.-. Governor Hrber M. Wells In the interest of the- Lewis and Clark Exposition. ' He was accompanied by Utah's three commission ers H. B. Clawson. L. W. Shurtliffe and Hoyt Sherman. Special Commissioner, Knapp was highly elated over the recep-: tion tendered the party. "We had quite an extended and very satisfactory consultation with Governor Wells," he said. "And fully canvassed the feasibility and desirability of UtahV being .represented at both the Portland and St, Louis Expositions. The Governor ex pressed himself as being In earnest ac cordance with the movement to hold an exposition In Portland. He assured me that he would positively and earnestly recommend in his annual message that the exhibit of "Utah be transferred, to Portland at the close of the St. Louis Ex position. "Governor Wells said he regarded Ihe Lewis and Clark Exposition to be strictly In the Interest of Western immigration and investment. He Eaid he considered it the duty of all the states but more par ticularly those west of the Mississippi River, to do all In their power to encour age the great Exposition to be held in Portland in 1805. He is confident that the people of .Utah will do their full share to make the Exposition a success. He will use all his Influence with the Incoming Legislature to have a liberal appropria tion to enable Utah to make the proper showlns." Commissioner Knapp was aked what success he met with in the other states visited. "I am just getting started," he said. "I was in San Francisco on Wednes day, and called upon Governor-elect Par dee. I found him to be in hearty accord with the Lewis and Clark movement. He said he believed it would be of as great importance to the Western States, es pecially California, to be properly repre sented at Portland as at St. Louis. He said he thought the Portland Exposition would yield more practical results to the states of the far West, as It would bring immigration and capital to this sidevof Ihe continent. Instead of taking visitors' and capital to the East. He expressed him self as very solicitous that "his state have a good representation at both expositions, and he will encourage this in every way in his power." " Speaking of Nevada, Commissioner Knapp said: "I met a number of business men from Nevada both here and in Cali fornia, and -they assured me that Governor-elect Sparks, being a man ofjjlne public spirit, would" unquestionably- see that Nevada was well represented atbjjth Portland, . and St,, Louis. J am assured that he will urge this In his first, annual message to the Nevada, Legislature" Commissioner Knapp will leave, here in the morning for Cheyenne, Denver, Llnj coin and other. Western capitals. were awaiting with interest his return. 3Ie will try to see them all before he- leaves the pity next Saturday,- but he w;lll perform no more operations' here. His time, he says, will be spent in resting. The Northwestern University will confer 'upon him the degree of LL. D. Friday evening. There will be a demonstration for him at the university law school. Dear born and Lake stfeets. Hundreds of let ters were handed to him by the clerks at the Auditorium Hotel, when he registered there with his assistant. Dr. Friederlch Mueller. "I should have. to prolong my stay In the United States Indefinitely if I attended all the cases brought to my notice," he said. "I have given free clinics, in Chicago, Den ver, Salt Lake City.. Los Angeles and St. Louis. I will hold clinics also in Balti more, Philadelphia, New York and Boston. These demonstrations are Kufflolont to 'give your surgeons the Idea of my blood less method. The American surgeons are most intelligent and advanced- men, and' a hint as to how to do. a thing is enough for them. Your hospitals, too, are fine, much better than the average in European cities." saktamariastillsmok.es HARM DONE BY TRUSTS. Judge Grosscup Defines It and Sug gests the Remedy. LINCOLN. Neb., Dec. 12-Judge Peter Grosscup, of Chicago, lectured here to night before the members of the law school of the University of Nebraska on the subject, "So-called Trusts the Next Great Step in American Politics." Judge Grosscup treated at length the causes and . growth of so-called trusts. The de sire, to acquire property he declared to be. 'the spirit and soul 01 our civil Institu tions. Speaking of the Sherman anti trust law. he said: "As Interpreted by the Supreme Court, that act ; embodied a public purpose, un wisely formed. I think, to deal with the so-called trusts on no other basis than that iof extermination to cut thein out root land branch to sweep the land with a decree like Herod's, that no child of consolidation should be found to have es caped." Judge Grosscup denied that trusts had made the conditions of ordinary life harder to bear. He added: "But, though the objections reiiewcd be untenable, it does not follow that the so-called, trusts, as they now exist, are without menace to our welfare. Indeed, the real danger lies deeper than any con sideration of prices charged or distrust aroused. It goes to the foundations of our society as a republican people. A widespread withdrawal, by the people at large, from general ownership in the prop erties of the country cannot but be fraught with the gravest dangers. Such withdrawal will diminish, if not destroy, popular interest in National prosperity, for from those only who have a stake In prosperity can we expect great interest. It will sap to its foundation the ( real strength of government, for government must be built on the interests as weir as the affections of the people governed. An industrial system subject to such in dictment is a rising menace to free gov ernment Itself." As a .remedy. Judge Grosscup declared that first the Sherman act should be re pealed, and in its place should be enacted legislation against artificial prices, dis crimination as between buyers and over capitalization, and to provide for Govern ment inspection, as is now practiced with regard to banks. DR. LORENZ IN VIENNA. Mttle Lollta Armour to Undergo Fur ther Treatment In Austria. Chicago Record-Herald. Lollta Armour will be taken to Vienna o receive final treatment by Professor Adolf Loreriz. Five months must yet elapse before there can' be a perfect cure of the congenital hip dislocation, for which the noted Viennese performed an operation early in October. And after the right limb of the little invalid has been taken from Its plaster, cast, it will have to be mas saged by an expert until it has assumed the Just and symmetrical proportions that will make it the proper mate to the left one. There has been rejoicing in the J. Ogden Armour residence, on Michigan avenue, for several days now, for the child has been able to walk a bit for the first time since her birth. Th6 plaster cast Impedes loco motion, holding the limb at an angle from the body, so that a shoe with a sole three Inches in thickness is" worn, but still she car. walk. The famous orthopedic surgeon says she Is., showing rapid progress, and that he has no reason to -withdraw his first favorable prediction that an absolute cure was certain.

"Xbe conservative people In Venezuela are strongly opposed to his .aggressive policy. The radical element, however, is with him. and strengthens him in the belief that Venezuela is powerful enough to. re sist both England and Germany."

Ycar'n War Carried o.iV toy Lav and Order League Ends In 'Public Bonfire in' the City. 1 CRIPPLE CxtEEK, Colo., Dec. 12. (Spe cial.) Tonight, in the. presence of thou sands of cheering and howling citizens, thousands of dollars? worth of gambling paraphernalia, which the Sheriff had cap tured in all parts of this mining district, was burned on a vacant lot by the Sheriff, under thAorders of the District Court. This was the result of a year's campaign against gambling: by the Law and Order ment gets comes through the State De- League, partment at "Washington and is based on Tha c The scene was most exciting, the city being crowded with miners from all parts of the 'district, the Salvation Army, the Judge and court officers, police and fire men being in the center of the immense crowd. As the Sheriffs forces with the gambling materials in big vans drove up they were greeted with all kinds of "human yells and unearthly noises. The gamblers accepted the situation, and amid the pan demonium the fire was touched off by the Sheriff, and a gambling-house proprietor, who has made a fortune by his game3 and mining investments. The fire" was in plain view from the Courtroom, where the gamblers have fought their legal bat tle for a year, only to plead guilty in the end. Firemen protected the City Hall and First National Bank from the flames. Men, women and children scrambled fiercely for souvenirs.

Electricity Striken Obstacle Weather on Elevated Roads. In NEW YORK, Dec. 12. For the second time within a week, the recently in- stalled electrical Eystem on the elevated railroads has received a serious Bet-back. When the drizzling rain that had fallen most of the day turned Into a thin layer of Ice on the "contact" or "third" rail, soon after 4 o'clock In the afternoon, and presented the transmission of power from that rail Into the motors in the propell ing cars, the trouble began. Traffic on the Second-avenue line was abandoned at 7 'clock, and further at tempts on the part of the trainmen to get their trains into the sheds was given up. Passengers were shifted along from one train o another, and thence to the station platforms, where they were dumped out and received ''block" trans fers, entitling them to ride on the sur- j face lines. On the Third-avenue line ' traffic was not entirely blocked, but the trains made such slow headway that thousands of tincsencer ent off ns soon as they could and walked along the Icy I caole' said Engineer Benest. pathway to the nearest station, where they took the trolley lines. On the Sixth and Ninth-avenue lines the same trouble i of It will be placed aboard a steam lighter and the shore end made fast from that craft. It will then be carried outside the heads, where the . big ship, will anchor, and the "start be made .from there. "We cannot effect a landing through tho surf running at the point selected." said Captain Morton. "The ship is draw ing 30 feet of water, and it is quite im possible to take her in nearer than a mile. To hauj the line through a mile of cur rent and surf would require more power than appeared to bz t available today. Therefore we could do nothing but return to the bay until "other arrangements can be made. Asked as to when the next attempt would be made, Captain Morton said he could not say with any degree of definlte ness. "We might get away Sunday, but I doubt it. I think, however, it will be as late as Monday." The officers of the ship and the engi neers In charge of the undertaking keen ly regretted their failure to make shore with the cable's end today. "It is a very difficult place to land a "We had no idea we had such a current and 'surf to contend with as that which confronted us today. Besides the delay, we recret was experienced.

When the half-dozen men who led the turbulent crowd said they would get their money by violence if not otherwise, the ticket- seller sent for the police, and half a dozen officers dispersed the crowd. Demands j for money to be returned were also made by crowds at the Twenty-third and Forty-second-street station of the Thlrd-ave- diately, but just as it touched water an Italian fisherman, who fortunately .hap pened to be passing, rescued Lee. " The rescuer was liberally rewarded by the captain of the Silvertown.

Trains crawled along, and the ticket agents admitted that the average speed was about four miles an hour. . Trains at the turn of Second avenue and Twenty-third street and at the First-avenue curve often got stuck, and it sometimes took 10 and 15 minutes to get them started again. Sur face cars on the Brooklyn bridge had al most as hard a time, but managed to keep going without any very great de lays. Traffic of teams lcross the bridge was almost at a standstill, and but few teams drawing loads tried to cross. A train was stalled on the Third-avenue line at Sixty-first street, and another at Eighty-ninth street, tying up that road completely for an hour. These two trains were finally got moving,, and then a much-delayed and irregular system was started again.
