raisers In Utah and Idaho are to i receive approximately foQWUfiQ this wae distributed 009 from the sugar headquarters In Eu s city to the farmers of Utah and Idaho This was in payment for the 360 tons of beets delivered to the fac tri s up to the end of October The price paid was 450 a ton It is estimated tliat the balance of the beet yield for the year will be ovor 100000 tons and that the total outlay for beets alone will crowd dose to J2000000 This does not Include tho cost of lalwr at the factories the fist of coal coke lumber rock chemi as freight repairs and the many other nxponges that enter into the manufac- ture of sugar The value of the sugar output can only be approximated as the men at the head of the industry persistently refuse to give out information It goes without say- ing that the profits are enormous which accounts for the rapid gro vth of the In dustry especially in Utah Idaho and Colo- rado Tho percentage of sugar in the beets never runs below 15 per cent It runs over this more often than It runs under Taking this as a basis the 400 tons of beets raised in Utah and Idaho this year would yield 130000000 pounds of sugar The present wholesale price of beet sugar in Sat Lake City Is C cent a pound which would bring the value of this years crop to the neat sum of 7- 309CW Payment Through Banks The handling of the 1350030 for the payment of the

T lumbar vertebra after Mr Hughes mid suffered front partial paralysis oaqsed by a railroad accident for two yrs did more for him than all the sci- ence by half a dozen leading ptjyslclntis of El Paso Tex The simple loft hook delivered by Frank Fox a rail road mat about 10 oclock last Sunday Jarred into position the fifth lumbar vertebra and Hughes regained cojitrol of his limbs For a moment the blow stunned him H staggered forward dropped his cane awd crutch and just as he sank to the sidewalk in front of the Comstock sa icOn on West Second South where the affair took place he was caught by Fox Realizing Hughes delicate condition Fox feared that ho had killed him and called for Before Hughes friends reached him he straightened up He seenud- f r a minute or two to be dazed and semiconscious Fox held him and spoke to him several times As Hughes recov- ered ho said to Fox I feel all right old man I know you didnt think before you hit me Fox offered him an apology and asked him If he could stand Hughes replied that he could and took a step or assisted by his cane crutch In the middle of the sidewalk he dropped his crutch and exclaimed God I can walk and started down tile street unassisted He walked Into tlie cigar store In the entrance of the Comstock saloon to the amazement friends Why I feel like a new man he said OBrien on the shoulder and walked out on the sidewalk again Several of Hughes friends went after him and brought him back They tried to argue with him but Hughes insisted on taking a walk about the city OBrien handed him his cane and told him he would better use It until ho became stronger Hughes throw It to the floor and Insisted that he didnt need it Breaks Cane and Walks Away- It was handed to him again and title time he raised his leg something that lie had been unable to do for two years and broke the cane across his knee This ended the matter and Hughes walked about with his friends for some time be- fore he went to his room at 16S Vest Third South street Since then Hughes has taken his dally walk and he is grad- ually becoming stronger although he fOals the effect of a tiresome walk now The morning after the affair took place the muscles across his back were sore btlt now he feels perfectly well When the blow was struck Mr Hughes says it stupned m The ron Tution I I am unable to dc scribe For a moment I went almost unconscious Everything went black and hazy but I remember that a severe pain tfhot through my As I recovered the blood seemed to through my tpdy and I feel the Uugle In the f t my It seemed that all the strength possessed Dj R man of my physique my all once felt and active for the time since I was Injured in El Paso I took a couple of steps on my crutch but I discovered that there was life In my limbs I didnt have to drag them and when I fully realized the sit j tuition I threw down my cane and walked off There was never a happier man lived than I am today I have a damage suit pending in the circuit court in El j Paso but I would rather have the use of my Jlmbs than all the money you could stack In a box car Some of my friends that this will Injure my chances of getting judgment against the railroad company hut that doesnt matter as Ion as I can walk Case Pronounced Hopeless The accident happened while I was employed In the M K T yards Feb 17 1808 I was a switchman there and worked most of the time on the night shift I was on of a line of boxcars when an engine smashed Into them and knocked me off I struck my Jack across the rail and when they found me I was paralyzed I was removed to the hospital and leading doctors of El Paso took my case For eight months I lay In the hospital and all of my recovery was given up I got considerably better and a year after- wards was only partially paralyzed Since then I have gone about on crutches and have taken a number of treatments They helped me considerably and lately- I have only used one crutch and some- times only a cane I wag unable to raise my feet from the ground but managed- to get along by dragging them along with me I wear out a pair of shoes about every two weeks but I think now that suffering Is a thing of the past Say that certainly was a lucky blow Fox thought he had delivered a knockaut for keeps but Instead It cured me I would not suggest that kind of treatment- as a sure cure but it did the business in my case Tho doctors at the hospital were puz zled over my case but they located the trouble in my fifth lumbar vertebra They took half a dozen Xrny pictures of my spine and attempted to find the Injury but it was certainly a nuzzle Well that Is the hIstory of the whole affair and one can see ror himself that I am about all right Of course mylegs and knees are weak but I think that in a short time I will be able to walk as good as I ever could Hughes is nearly six feet In height and built He weighs about 190 pounds and is not more titan 30 years of age He has been In Salt Lake for several months living with his brother Hughes Intends- to go back to El Paso In a short time to look after his damage suit which Is pending irf the courts there Physicians were consulted yesterday about Hughes case but they said would be almost impossible to state posi- tively just how the blow acted upon the It would be necessary they to have an Xray picture of the spine before and after the blow was landed It Is evident Dr T B Beatty said yes- terday that there was not much of a dlslodgment of the bone or the blow would not have acted upon the injury in that way CONFERENCE ROOSEVELT AND SHAW

Immediately upon the Sh first information tho official- 1egraphic Mtli i of- ficials in Florence CoIQ They fished to ascertain if the letters had postmarked in order to have the feder- al authorities take the matteriln land Tho information came back that the letters had not been postmarked and that Corner claimed that ho had picked them up in the street between the Commercial National bank arid the postofficc On the strength of this information Postoffice Inspector Frank C Sharp re- fused to take the matter in hand he said it could be clearly shown that the letters had been put In the possession of the postal authorities he would have no Jurisdiction in the mat ter County Attorney P P Christensen when called upon took the position that- it would be impossible for him do anything in the matter unless it could be shown that Corner was guilty of a felony and could be extradited He held that the checks and drafts being nonnegotiable had n intrinsic value and that unless it could be shown that they had been altered and the endorse- ments forged he would be helplesa in the matter Federal Authorities Take a Hand Tim first consideration of thu WaS to get possession of tho checks In order that their business might not be embarrassed Captain J B Burbidge and Detective George Chase were called in They were placed in communica- tion with the authorities in Florence and ascertained that Corner had been arrested merely an vagrant The dif- ficulty in getting definite information- led to the belief that tho Florence of- ficials were holding back for a reward No reward was offered

in the afternoon The officials are convinced that these letters wore not stolen front the bank They cannot understand how they could be lost on so public a street- as Second South street at that hour

CURES PARALYSISH-

Jarred to Place by

DROPSCRUTCH AND

SUPPOSEDLY HOPELESS CASE

YIELDS TO NOVEL CURE

simple left hook In a friendlymanner upon Frederick Hughes fifth

T lumbar vertebra after Mr Hughesmid suffered front partial paralysisoaqsed by a railroad accident for two

yrs did more for him than all the sci-

ence by half a dozen leadingptjyslclntis of El Paso Tex The simple

loft hook delivered by Frank Fox a railroad mat about 10 oclock last Sunday

Jarred into position the fifthlumbar vertebra and Hughes regainedcojitrol of his limbs

For a moment the blow stunned himH staggered forward dropped his caneawd crutch and just as he sank to thesidewalk in front of the Comstock saicOn on West Second South where theaffair took place he was caught by FoxRealizing Hughes delicate condition Foxfeared that ho had killed him and calledfor Before Hughes friends reachedhim he straightened up He seenud-f r a minute or two to be dazed andsemiconscious Fox held him and spoketo him several times As Hughes recov-ered ho said to Fox

I feel all right old man I knowyou didnt think before you hit me

Fox offered him an apology and askedhim If he could stand Hughesreplied that he could and took a step or

assisted by his canecrutch In the middle of the sidewalk hedropped his crutch and exclaimed

God I can walk and started downtile street unassisted He walked Intotlie cigar store In the entrance of theComstock saloon to the amazement

friendsWhy I feel like a new man he said

OBrien on the shoulderand walked out on the sidewalk again

Several of Hughes friends went afterhim and brought him back They tried toargue with him but Hughes insisted ontaking a walk about the city OBrienhanded him his cane and told him hewould better use It until ho becamestronger Hughes throw It to the floorand Insisted that he didnt need it

Breaks Cane and Walks Away-

It was handed to him again and titletime he raised his leg something that liehad been unable to do for two yearsand broke the cane across his knee Thisended the matter and Hughes walkedabout with his friends for some time be-

fore he went to his room at 16S VestThird South street Since then Hugheshas taken his dally walk and he is grad-ually becoming stronger although hefOals the effect of a tiresome walk nowThe morning after the affair took placethe muscles across his back were sorebtlt now he feels perfectly well

When the blow was struck MrHughes says it stupned m The ronTution I I am unable to dcscribe For a moment I went almostunconscious Everything went black andhazy but I remember that a severe paintfhot through my As I recoveredthe blood seemed to through mytpdy and I feel the Uugle In the

f t my It seemedthat all the strength possessed Dj R manof my physique my allonce felt and active for thetime since I was Injured in El Paso

I took a couple of steps on my crutchbut I discovered that there was life Inmy limbs I didnt have to drag them

and when I fully realized the sit j

tuition I threw down my cane and walkedoff There was never a happier manlived than I am today I have a damagesuit pending in the circuit court in El j

Paso but I would rather have the useof my Jlmbs than all the money you couldstack In a box car Some of my friends

that this will Injure my chances ofgetting judgment against the railroadcompany hut that doesnt matter asIon as I can walk

Case Pronounced HopelessThe accident happened while I was

employed In the M K T yards Feb 17

1808 I was a switchman there and workedmost of the time on the night shift Iwas on of a line of boxcars when anengine smashed Into them and knockedme off I struck my Jack across the railand when they found me I was paralyzedI was removed to the hospital and leadingdoctors of El Paso took my case Foreight months I lay In the hospital andall of my recovery was given up Igot considerably better and a year after-wards was only partially paralyzedSince then I have gone about on crutchesand have taken a number of treatmentsThey helped me considerably and lately-I have only used one crutch and some-times only a cane I wag unable to raisemy feet from the ground but managed-to get along by dragging them along withme I wear out a pair of shoes aboutevery two weeks but I think now that

suffering Is a thing of the pastSay that certainly was a lucky blow

Fox thought he had delivered a knockautfor keeps but Instead It cured me Iwould not suggest that kind of treatment-as a sure cure but it did the business inmy case

Tho doctors at the hospital were puzzled over my case but they located thetrouble in my fifth lumbar vertebraThey took half a dozen Xrny picturesof my spine and attempted to find theInjury but it was certainly a nuzzle

Well that Is the hIstory of the wholeaffair and one can see ror himself thatI am about all right Of course mylegsand knees are weak but I think that ina short time I will be able to walk asgood as I ever could

Hughes is nearly six feet In height andbuilt He weighs about 190 pounds

and is not more titan 30 years of age Hehas been In Salt Lake for several monthsliving with his brother Hughes Intends-to go back to El Paso In a short timeto look after his damage suit which Ispending irf the courts there

Physicians were consulted yesterdayabout Hughes case but they saidwould be almost impossible to state posi-tively just how the blow acted upon the

It would be necessary theyto have an Xray picture of the spine

before and after the blow was landedIt Is evident Dr T B Beatty said yes-terday that there was not much of adlslodgment of the bone or the blowwould not have acted upon the injury inthat way

mittances amounting 5600 The rob-

bery did not become known to Ute localbaud officials until Friday afternoonThen tho Information came in the formof a telegram from Florence Colo tell-

ing of the arrestthere of William Cor-

On the strength of this informationPostoffice Inspector Frank C Sharp re-fused to take the matter in hand

he said it could be clearly shownthat the letters had been put In thepossession of the postal authorities hewould have no Jurisdiction in the matter

County Attorney P P Christensenwhen called upon took the position that-it would be impossible for him doanything in the matter unless it couldbe shown that Corner was guilty of afelony and could be extradited Heheld that the checks and drafts beingnonnegotiable had n intrinsic valueand that unless it could be shown thatthey had been altered and the endorse-ments forged he would be helplesa inthe matter

Federal Authorities Take a HandTim first consideration of thu

WaS to get possession of tho checks Inorder that their business might not beembarrassed Captain J B Burbidgeand Detective George Chase were calledin They were placed in communica-tion with the authorities in Florenceand ascertained that Corner had beenarrested merely an vagrant The dif-ficulty in getting definite information-led to the belief that tho Florence of-ficials were holding back for a rewardNo reward was offered by bankYesterday afternoon the bank hr Flur-ence wan wired to get possea lon of theCommercial National bauk paper foundon Corner Lest night the informationcame that all paper had Ueetitaken to Denver by a United States
