She had a cache under the sidewalk near the school , and when this was discovered It was found to contain a large number of trinkets stolen from the pupils of the school. When the order of the court to have the girt ECU ! to the reform t > chool was made both the girl and her father broke down and wep ! bitterly.

Monday night City Treasurer Broadvvell notified the city council that It would be necessary to borrow $3,500 to take up Inter est coupons on grading district bonds which become duo August 1. As the city Is now paying 10 per cent Interest on $13,000 which has been borrowed from the banks since April 1 for such purposes , some members of the llnance committee thought that money might bo obtained at a less rate of interest If bids weic advertised for. A resolution authorizing the clerk to advertise for bids for the amount was passed and the adver tisement was duly Inserted In the olllclal paper of the cltj' . The time was up last night and not a single bid had been re ceived. Bankers hero say that they can place all the money they have to loan at 10 per cent without running after the bus Iness. and for that reason no attention was paid to the advertisement. The finance committee will now have to borrow the money today and telegraph it to New York In order to have it there in time. _ rZiiHtorn PjirtlcM HofiiHi * ItoniiH.

Several letters were received yesterday from eastern parties who arc In the habit of loaning money on cattle papei in which they refuse to make any loans until after election Now Is the time to buy feeders , when the range cattle arc being shipped In. If the moneyed men persist In refusing to make loans It Is feared that the cattle trade will bo badly crippled for a time. Local banks hero are taking some cattle paper , but not much. Ten per cent Is the interest charged , bu { even at this late the banks are not granting half of the requests for loans. The state was never In better shape to care for feedeis than It Is now and the lack of confidence of eastern money loancrs will cause hardships among many of the cattle men. Manic Clt ) G HNI. G. W.

CHICAGO , July 29. There were no de velopments In the western grain rate war today , btil the general opinion Is that tales will have to go lower. The reduced latcs whleh the roads have mado. during the last ten dajs have brought them no Increase In trafllc and they aio beginning to think that they have not jet bid sufflclently to bring out the grain. A meeting ot the general managers of the western lines will bo held this week to see if some way can not be devised by which the rates can be kept up nnd the business seemed at the same time. The western lines had an all around fight this evening over the sales for the meeting of the flrc chiefs nt Salt Lake City. The rnto for this meeting was orig inally one fare for the lound trip and Inter the Milwaukee & St. Paul dechued that It would make a. late of $30 , which was a reduction ot $15 from the ono faro rate Since that reduction was announced , nearly all ot the lines In the Western Passenger association have been offering extensions on the original limit of the tickets , mak ing them good for nearly nil the month ol August , making the tickets good without execution at Salt Lake nnd taking other liberties with thu orgtual agreement that practically makes the tickets opened for an } body and any class of business. In the meeting today , the Milwaukee & St. Paul was charged with violating the agreement and being the cause of all the demoralisa tion. This It denied In the most vlgoious fnblilon , and the meeting broke up In n general row , with cvcrjbodj' angry and no settlement of the matter In sight. H Is low prcllctcd that thu rate will ulllmatclj be made $15 for the round tilp from Chicago cage to Salt Lake. ivriiiu HO AD isv Asnni ) AWAY Irailch of the ( Inlf S > NtoniVlpeil out l > j ( he Plooil.

All the railroad ties used 'In that portion of the country are obtained from wood along this line. Freight Is the most important Institution of the road , there being but little or no pas- Kenger traffic. There are several freight : iolns a day , but all the passenger business is handled In cars attached to these trains. The section of the road that has been wiped out Is from Soprls , Cole , south , or the entire length of the road with t' i exceptloi of the ftvo miles between Soprls and Trinidad.
