Ogdkn, Utah, April 10. The Standard
will say tonight: A subscription lift is
being circulated lure to raise $.",00,000
for the erection of a .Mormon tabernacle
in this city, tbe promoters having the
nssurance that in event of the success of
the undertaking one of the semi-annual
conferences of the Mormon church will
be held here. This means an addition
to the city's income of $250,000. Over
$150,000 has already been subscribed,
and the rest has been promised. Thia
move is the result of the jealousy en
gendered between Salt Lke and Ogden
by the recent fake railroad agiiation
started in Salt Lake. Other parties in
I Ogden are endeavoring to establish an
exposition ground for an interstate ex-
position, including Nevada. Idaho,
Wyoming and Utah. Over $10,000 has
been raised for this purpose, and tbe
support of leading men in other states
has been enlisted.

One of my milliners was taking Chamber
Iain's Cough Remedy for a severe cold at
that time, which seemed to relieve her
so quickly tbut I bought some for myself.
It ucted like magic and I began to im
prove at once. I am now entirely well
and feel verv pleased to acknowledge its
merits." For eale by Blakeley, the

COMMISSARY FRAUD
Latest Developments in the Scandal at
Manila A Court-Martial Convened
Colonel Woodruff ' Innocently
Drawn Into the Deal.
Manila, April 1G. A court-martial
has been convened and will meet tomor
row to try Lieutenant Frederick Uoyer,
charged with tbe embezzlement of com
mieeury stores. Captain Fredrick J.
Barrows, of the Thirtieth Volunteer In
fantry, will be tried later. A civilian
named Fletcher, accused of unlawful
conversion of commissiry stores, will be
tried by the piovost court tcuorrow.
Speaking of the commissary scandals,
a prominent army officer said to the
representative of the Associated Press
that he had every reason to believe that
Colonel WoodruH', head of the subsist
ence department at Manila, was not im
plicated. He said that Colonel Woodruff
was one of the ablest men in the service,
and that his honesty was unquestioned.
He asserted the Colonel Woodruff was
ignorant of the fact that Harold A. Pitt,
manager of Evans & Co., the army con
tractors, was leasing him the house in
which he lived for much more less rental
than Pitt Ha l paid theiefore. Upon dis
covering this, Colonel Woodruff im
mediately vacated the house. 31 1 1 ie
alleged to have said that Captain Read,
of the commissary department, deceived
Colonel Woodruff, wtio thought Captain
Head to be thoroughly honest, The ir
regularities on commissary matters were
first attributed to Captain Read's tin
familiarity with commissary work. Col
onel Woodruff was reluctant to believe
that frauds were being perpetrated, but
the facts disclosed caused bim to give
Captain Rnd a most severe reprimand
and to Iwgin an investigation which may
involve, according to the prominent
urtny officer previously referred to, the
examination of Major Davis, who was
the depot commissary before Captain
Read, but who was sent home on sick
leave.
