H; 14 THE SALT LAKE TRIBUNE, FRIDAY MORNING-, APRIL 9, 1909. fe
I'l s - r ,. .
ICIIf WILL TAKE
OVERJBNTRACT
Outlet Pipe Probably Will Be
Finished Under City Engi
neers Supervision.
MAYOK BRANSFORD SENDS
LETTER TO THE COUNCIL
Various Reasons Advanced for
the Breaks in the Pipe;
The Outcome.
The first active step looking toward
tlio taking over of the oulot ipc for
the west side sewage system, tho Camp
boll Building company contractor, was
taken by tho city council in a special
session 'hold, at "tho instance of the
I mayor. J liursilay evening.
T-ty a resolution introduced by .Mr.
Martin, and unanimously adoptod, tho
1 council terminated the "agreement en
tered into with tho building companv
on January 21. whereby Mr. Campbell
agreed to waive all rights under his old
contract and permit the city to u.c tho
outlet pipe for a period of four months
or less without forcing its auecpinncy
on the city to see if such use would
stop tho leaks in iL and directed ilu;
board of public works to notify the
contractor to proceed with the work un
der tho original contract.
This throws the matter back into its
original state, and under Ihe old con
tract the city may declare tho con
tractor in default, after due notice, take
the work over and finish it and charge
it to the contractor's contract. This is
what is contemplated in the adoption
of tho resolution, and it, is probable, that
rho board of works will today give, Ihe
contractor the required notice looking to
the taking over of the contract. j
Mayor Takes a Hand.
This may be done without loss to the
city, as there is still due the Campbell
Building company on Ihe contract some
thing like $5000, If tho city lakes the
work over the. pipe will be finished un
der tho direction of the city engineer.
Thn frtllm-iiirr nmiminifvi himi frnm llir
I mayor, giving a full history of the
case, led up to the adoption of tho reso
lution: On llio ?tli day or Apr!!, IO0S, a con
tract was enteral into by and between
Salt Lake 'lty and tbe Campbell Ruild
Injr company. ;i corporation, whereby said
Campbell l'inllding company agreed to fur
nish material and construct tho outlet
pipe from pumping station of the Inter
cepting; sewer and connection to cravlty
nutlet sewer. Said contract was approved
Ibv Uif city council on the intli nf April,
and approved by the major on the
14th day of April. 19US.
On the ""Ist day of January. 100ft, an
agreement was entered Into by and be
tween the city of Salt Lake and the said
Campbell Building company, whereby tlm
company agreed that said pipeline should
be turned over to tho city "for a period
of four months for the purpose of giving
(he city the right to determine whether
said pipeline was properly constructed,
and In such a condition as to meet the
requirements and to the entire satisfac
tion of the city.
The said pipeline since that date has
caused considerable trouble by reason of
the pipu therein continually looking and
causing the water to flow therefrom, and
It Is absolutely necessary that something
should bo done to protect the Interests
of the city In this matter and at as early
a date as possible.
As n number of your honorable body
are thoroughly familiar with the situation.
I will not enter Into details, but will re
spectfully recommend that your honor
able body take such action as may be
necessary In the premises.
Followed by Discussion.
Tho reading of the. communication
was followed by considerable discus
sion. Mr. Hall suggested the reinforce
ment, with concrete, of the pipe under
neath the thirty-sis railway tracks
passing over it. Mayor Bransford said
he was in favor of concrete reinforce
ment at first, but, thai, ho does not be
lieve tho present breaks aro duo to the
weight of passing trains, although the
consequent deep vibrations of the earth
may have something to do with the
trouble.
The main cause of the breaks in the
pipe, in the mso-or's opinion, was the
use ol cast iron instead of malleablo
shoes. Tho contract specified all mal
leable shoes, but the contractor did not
havcouough of these shoes on hand and
the city engineer permitted the use of
east iron shoes every other band. The
contractor, it is alleged, violated this
agreement, and put on nearly all cast
iron shoes, which break much easier
than do malleablo shoes, and this,
Mayor Bransford believes, is the cause
of most of the trouble.

and begged him to emtio back with
him to Tive, promising to leave him
all his property if ho would remain

to enter an order requiring linsmus
sen to transfer the property, which is
valued at $5000, lo him in fee' sim
ple. Tho estate consists of real es

Salt Lake Organizations Are

The various women's clubs of the
city have grasped the necessity of act

telegraphed to the Utah representatives
in congress protesting against it. The
Woman's leaguo has done this, as has
also the Woman's American club and
tho Wasatch Literarj' circle. A meet
ing of tho Ladies' Literary club will bo
held this afternoon at which the matter
will bo taken up and some definite
action taken by that organization. The
women contend that gloves and hosiery
and other similar articles of wearing
apparel cost too much at the. prcscut,
much less than what they would in case
the tariff is increased.

Special Arrangements Being

The feature of the Prosperit- fair at
tho Chamber of Commerce, Thursday
evening, was the presence of members
of tho Commercial club, including Presi
dent W. .1. Ilalloran and Secretary
Fisher Harris. Former Cov. .lohn "V
Cutler and State Representative Hugh
A. McMillin also were present. Gov.
Spry was unable to be present on ac
count of not being in the city, but Mrs.
Spry attended with a number of friends.
Special arrangements were made for
music, ami the High School Cndets
band played in front of the buildiug be
tween S and 0 o'clock, while the Hyde
.iuvonilo orchestra, under the direction
of little Miss Roumnnia Hyde, di.HCourPed
attractive music inside tho buildiug.
Kvery one was in good humor. The girls
at tho. booths looked their prettiest and
dispensed tea and koffee-et, chocolate,
not to mention candy and waffles, to
all comers. At 0 o'clock the rooms wcro
crowded, ho that it was difficult lo get
into tho buildiug.
Salt Lakers Attend.
There was a noticeable difference in
tho make-up of the crowd over preced
ing nights, caused partly by the closing
of conference. Hitherto most of the
people have been from out of town, evi
dently visitors to Ihe city, but Thursday
evening most of the people were citi
zens of Salt Lake. During the day the
crowd wns not so groat as on previous
days, although they came iu a constant
stream from the "time, the doors wcro
opened at 0 o'clock. The attractions of

DEATH OF STEVENSON
BEING INVESTiGATED
He Was Instantly Killed on the
Emigration Canyon Road
Wednesday Night.
A prcliminar- investigation of the
killing of Louis J. Stevenson, employed
as conductor on the gravel train of the
Emigration Canyon Railway company,
who mot instant death Wednesday night
as a result of being crushed bv a de
railed car, was held Thursday afternoon
by Stanle3' A. Hanks, justice of the
peace.
John McDonald, onginoer, was tho
first to bo oxamined. lie said that he i
kuow of no reason why any of the cars
should have jumped the track at the
rvo at the corner of Ninth South aud
Thirteenth Fast streets. He said that
the train consisted of seven cars loaded
with stone, the most cars he had ever
pulled from the quarries. He said that
previous to sturting he had tested the
airbrakes and had applied the brakes
before the curve was reached, but for
some reason they did not work properly,
llo attributed their inefficiency' to frost
winch might have caught between the
uiaico blocks and tho wheols. All wit
nesses said that tho train was going at
a inster rate of speed Wednesday- night
than was customary. Lc Grand. "Young,
dr., superintendent of the road, said that
the curve m question wns a 70 por cent
angle and that the grade was u3. por
cent. He said that cars should not'takc
tho curve faster than three or four miles
per hour. No ono saw the accident, but
it is supposed that as the cars loft tho
track Stevenson jumped for the opposite
side, was caught in the stones and
crushed. Tho cars did not pass over his
body.
The relatives have not decided
whether to ask that an inquest he held
or not, nor have there been arrange
ments made for the. funeral.
Stovenson wns :1G vears old, having
beon born in Provo. He had worked as
braheman for the Copper Belt railroad
and for the Oregon Short Line. He
lived, at 7GI South Third East street,
nnd is survived by a wife and three
children and the following brothers and
sisters: John, Henry, Will and Taiinc
Stevenson, Mrs. Mary K. Smith nnd Mrs.
Sarah Williams, all of Salt Lake. His
mother and father aro living.
