Southern Pacific railrond company, in

of the United states In defense of thHr
Inim to mllllono of dollnro worth of vcfli
trn oil Jande. It is unUl that tltl lo
JSOO.OOO.OOO worth oi oil lands depends
upon tho outcome of the litigation.
The ca? now before the supremo rouzt
involves questions a to whether Ed

I railroad companj.
Tho government recently f.led a .mlt
flekltir to annul patents to the land It
'ssued to the. Southern Pacific.
Says Suit Unjust.
"It ts unparalleled In the whole history
of judlclnl procedure." declares tho nUl-
oad'a attorneys, "for the Attorney cen
tral of the L'nltcd Staler to be permitted
to Intervene an a 'friend of tho court' !n

or may not hereafter come before It. In
a government suit JubI he pun against
one of the partle.a to tho case at Wir. It
.ertalnly lo unfair and unjuat to the
railroad to bo compelled In thla court
of last report, not only to defend tha
resent case, but also to defend another
am arlplp.upon entirely different facts,
nhlc'i has not proceeded beyond the lllhu
of a bill of romplaint. Especially Is this
o when tho great seriouncp and vast
-mportanco of this matter not only to
ho Southern Pacific railroad, but to all
'ind grant railroads is considered."
Cite Former Opinion.
The attorneys presented to the court

purported to have rendered the Hccre
ar? of tho intorlor In 1S1A in which he
impressed tho belief that tho opinion In

The railroad attorneys talce the posi

Ideiro that the lands arc not mineral,

to Lo since the patonts vrerc insucd.

REBATING INQUIRY
By International Xcws Service.
WASHINGTON-. Jan. 3. The biggest
rebating Inquiry in years got under way
today, when Interstate Commerce Com
missioner Harlan began hearings to de
termine the nature and amount of the
payments made by the trunk line rail
roads cost of the Mississippi and north
of the Ohio river, to the terminal rail
roads owned by the steel trust, the har
vester trust and other corporations.
It is believed the amounts will run up
into the millions. Inasmuch as the prin
cipal business of the terminal railroads
.s to bring Ih raw materials for the
Plants of their proprietary companies
and talec out the finished products, the
interstate commerce commission is of the
opinion that the payments arc illegal and
thev are virtually rebates,
-r 1 o .",,y wJt"css examined todav wis
I S. ringley. traffic manager of the
Baltimore & Sparrows Point Railroad
company. He testified that the Pennsyl
vania and Baltimore & Ohio Railroad
companies pay his line 10 rents a ton for
hauling materials for the Maryland Steel
company, which owns the road. The
amount received last year hv the Balti
more Sparrows Point railroad In this
manner was Sl-'O.IMS. and h road is
only five and nine-tenths miles long.
The Maryland Steel company, which
owns the road, is owned bv me Penn
sylvania Steel company of N'ew Jeracv.
and this company is in turn owned by
I ho Pennsylvania Railroad company,
t-arrylng the relationship of tho com
panies a little further, the Pennsylvania
Railroad company until a short time ago
avowedly controlled the Baltimore &
Ohio through the ownership of 35 per
cent of Its slock.
It Is expected that the hearing to
morrow will take up directlv the activi
ties of the terminal railroads owned bv
tho fiteel trust and tl.o harvester trist
and by their sub3idlar companies. Tc--limo'jy
will also be .taken o:j ti.e pay
meats received by Jones & l.au;:';lln: the
largest Independent competitors of th" :

tions arc correct. "The Lottery. Man"
closes with tonight'" performance, and
beginning Sunday evening Mr. Kelly will

With a house well warmed and iillod to

j look on a merry appearance, for every
one present seemed to hugely enjoy the j
funny antics of the "German" comcdlnns,
little Bud Duncan and Lew Dunbar,
which, by comparing the two for nine,
gives us the "long and short of it."
"The Frolics of 1013" was given Its last

. If the Empress bill are ulways as good
ay the one holding the boards the pres
ent week and whleh opened on Wednes
day last, there can be no nuostlon but
that tho present season will establish a
new record for receipts. ISvcr alert to
securing the best, regardless of salary,
the Sullivan & Conaldlnc Interests have
given to Salt Lakcro on this week's pro
gramme an act that boasts of being the
best when it conies to heavyweight jug
gling and presenting hair-raising stunts.
Paul Spadonl Is the one man in the world
who is able to completely take your
breath away and he effects thla by his
daredevil manner ' of juggling cannon
balls and other heavy things. The regu
lar ladles' and children's matinee will be
held today.
"Broadway Jones." which closes itu
engagement at the Salt Lake theater this
afternoon and tonight, has proved to be
the biggest hucccss in many years and,
to use a slang exprcHsion, George M.
Cohan's latest play is a complete knock
out. It ia the one play of the season to
receive the universal press indorsements
In N'ew York, and Adolph Klauber in the
New 1'ork Times says "Broadway Jones"
Is "a veritable gem." Tho appeal In
"Broadway Joncs:' is its cleanliness. Mr.
Cohan has taken simple homo life ideas
and constructed an Ingenious play ab
solutely free from any suggestion of
coarseness, but so full of veal hearty fun
that the audiences who view It arc kept
In a constant state of laughter from the
first to the final curtain. 'The Ameri
can stage has rarely Veen a plav that
equals "Broadway Jones."
"With the Indorsement of long runs in
London and N'ew York, "a Butterfly On
the "Wheel"- will have ita first presenta
tion here nevt Monday, wlian It will be
seen at the Salt Lake theater, being in
terpreted 'by an all-English cast gathered
together by Lewin Waller, tho English
ac'.or-nianagcr. who came to tain country
last fail to appear in ' The Garden of
Allah" and later branched out as a pro
ducer of note. Mr. AVallcr originally
played in "A Butterfly On the Wheel"
when it was seen Jn London. He was
dubious as to lis success in this coun
try until the opening night, when all
doubts wcro removed by the warmth of
the reception accorded not onlv the com
pany but every hci of the play.
Pii tures of Pope Pius X. and the Vatican
will be shown at the P.c- theater for the
last time today. The opportunity lo sec
the Vatican Is rarely given and to secure
this picture was by no mean:? an easy
matter. Four other splendid subjects
will also be shown: "Aunt Dinah's
Plot," by Nestor; "The Big Chief." and
the "Professor's Dilemma" arc three
corking concdies. "A Business Man's
Wife" Is a story of real life. In all. it
ia a very well-balanced bill. For throe
days, starling Sunday. "The Long
Strike," a play that will appeal to all,
will be the feature.

NOTED STRONG MAN
AT THE EMPRESS j
PAUL SPADONI.
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaS3HaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaBi
OF tho tbousaud and 0110 feats per
formed by tho professional
strong men who have becu secu uu
dcr canvas and on tho vaudeville
stages of this country aud Europe, it
is doubtful if thoro ia moro Ihau one
spcclaclo that lias uot been copied and
used by rival performors, in all the
gaa:cy of tricks and feats devised by
the stroug men and their managers.
Jn any event there is but one leal
in Paul Spadoni's repertoire, of accom
plishments that to a ccrtaitiiy Spadom
knows has never been attempted by
those who seek to follow in his foot
steps. Spadoni is the world famous strong
man aud juggler of heavv weights,
whose appearance at tho tinipress this
week as the headline, feature of tho
bill now runniug llierc, bus created so
niurb comment among playgoers tho
past Jew days.
The spectacle that. Spadoni declares
has ucver been attempted by any other
strong man appearing professionally iu
this couutry or on tho contiucnt is the
fcafc of catching a balloon basket con
taining a man, the two droppiug from
a balloon suspended fifty feet in the
air. Spadoni performed this feat for
two consecutive years, catching the
man and the basket ou tho back of his
shoulders as they dropped -with light
ning rapidity upon bciug cut loose
from tho bnlloon above.

tiest and most cnjoyablo parties the
local knights have over given, "Vhilc
tho attendance was not as largo as it
has boon at some of the provioii3 par
ties given by the knights, the geniality
and closo acquaintance of those who
did attend more than made up for the
smaller number. About one buudrod
couples enjoyed the dance programme,
cousisling of sixteen dances and live
oxtras.
Tho hall was prettily trimmed in red
aud green, the prevailing holiday col
ors. I'alms wcro placed about the' walls
of the room, adding a delightful touch
to the decorative scheme. The punch
table was trimmed with fevus and cut
llowcrs and presented an unusually at
tractive appearance. The dance pro
grammes had the Knights of Columbus
seal stamped upon them in gold.
The selection of dances was exception
ally pleasing and an excellent musical
programme was furnished by tho Odeou
orchestra.
In addition to a largo number of
the council members, nip.ny other promi
