There being no further business in the hands of the stated clerk Moderator Coyle ronounced the closing address of the embly, in which he commented upon the meeting as remarkable, because of its size: because of the great work of revision of the confession of faith which it had accomplished; because of the great awakening of the spirit of evangelism manifested, and finally, because of the complete tranquillity of its deliberations. He also stated that it had been the brief- est assembly held by the church in the past twelve years. A motion was then heard fo dissolve the assembly, which carried unanimously. Raising his hand Moderator Covle pro- nounced the formal words: By virtue of the authority delegated to me, let this assembly be now dissolved. It is so dis- solved, to meet again in Buffaio, N.

Negotiations are pending between the | Sharon Estate Company and the owners | of the property adjoining the Grand Ho- tel on Market street, upon which stands | what has been known as the Burlington lodging-house, with a view of securing for | the first named party a lease of the last | mentioned bullding for a long term of | years. If the deal goes through, and very | likely it will, it is the intention of the; Sharon Estate Company to annex the | Burlington building to the Grand Hotel. Originally it was part of the hotel, the | ground having been leased when the | Grand was first constructed. In 1888, fail- ing to get a renewal of the lease, which | had then expired, the hotel management | abandoned that part of the hotel which extends from the center of the block on Market street eastward to Second and built a dividing wall between it and the remainder of the hotel. A few days ago the lessee of the Burlington died sudden- Iy and immediately after the Sharon es- tate made an offer to the owners of the building, the idea being to secure the ad- dition in order to keep pace with the rap- idly increasing transient travel In the city. It l¢ cxpected to have the annex | in readiness for the traffic that will at- | terid the Grand Army encampment. CHANGES SUGGESTED IN STEAMBOAT INSPECTION Supervising Inspectors Called in Special Session in Washington to Consider the Subject. Important changes and modifications in the existing regulations governing the in- spection and requirements of boilers for steam vessels in the ocean and ferry and river trade are expected to be made at | the forthcoming session of the Board of | Supervising Inspectors of Steam Vessel: . which will be held in Washington, D. C., on June 5. The purpose of the session s to con- sult relative to revising the rules and regulations of the steamboat inspection service and to consider and recommend to Congress such revision of the laws as may be deemed necessary. The laws regulating this branch of the service have been changed very little since their adoption in 1853, and many changes are said to be nccessary in order to adjust the service to the new condi- tions. ————,————— Hinrich’s Concert a Success.

NATION'S CHIEF 15 UTAH'S GUEST President Addresses Big Throng in Mormon Tabernacle. b Praises Pioneers Who Took Care of Physical Resources. SALT LAKE, Utah, May 29.—The spe- | clal train bearing President Roosevelt and party pulled into the Oregon Short| Line station from the north promptly at 8:30 o’clock this morning amid the clamor of dozens of locomotive and factory whis- | ties, the shrill yells of hundreds of cat-| tle punchers and sheep men and the en- thusigstic cheering of several thousand | people congregated in the railroad yards | and along the streets leading frem the| depot. - As the President stepped from the train he was met by Governor Wells, Mayor | Thompson, Colonel J. W. Bubb and Sec-| retary of Agriculture Wilson, who has been in Salt Lake for several days wall«‘b ing to join the Presidential party. The | President shook hands with them warm- | ly and after chatting a moment the en-| tire party was escorted to carriages. With the President were seated Secretary Loeb, | Governor Wells and Mayor Thompson. | As soon as all the members of the Pres- idential party were escorted to the car-| riages the ride through the uptown streets to the City and County building, where the President was to deliver his first address, began. On the north side of South Temple street and stretching for blocks were lined the military, civic and fraternal organizations forming the parade and sixty carriages of the Presl-| dential party. Preceding the President's | carriage wa's an escort of thirteen mount- ed police in command of Captain J. B. Burbridge and Grand Marshal Ben Hey- wood and alds. A special escort to the President of fifty Rough Riders, splerdidly mounted and in typical plainsmen’s at- tire, came next. COWBOYS IN PARADE. Bringing up the rear were nearly 600 mounted cow punchers and sheep men, | the true Western rough riders. Coming from the most remote corners of the State, many of them having ridden over 150 miles of rough trail to greet the head of the nation, these sunburned, brawny plainsmen in their sombreros and faded blue shirts formed the most picturesque part of the long parade and the President ose in his carriage and bowed again and again in response to their wild cheering Nine thousand school children, every | one of them waving a flag, greeted Presi- dent Roosevelt as he stepped from his | carriage at the City and County building | and mounted a platform to address them. The reception given him by the young- sters evidently pleased the President very much and he smiled and bowed repeatedly in response to their enthusiastic greet- ing. b After speaking a moment to the chil dren the President reviewed the long par- ade, and, then re-entering his carriage, was driven to the Tabernacle. The great house of worship of the Mormon people will seat $000, but fully 3000 more were packed into the edifice when Governor rose to Introduce the President. President Roosevelt stepped for- ward to deliver his address the unique spectacle was afforded of 11,000 people gathered in a temple of worship rising to their feet and cheering wildly for fully a minute. EULOGY OF PIONEERS. The President spoke for some time in eulogy of the Utah pioneers, who, he said, | came here not to exploit the land and then g0 somewhere else, but to build homes. | No real good to the community comes from the man who skins the land and then gets out. He asked that all people, | | but especially, the people of the arid and | semi-arid region, approach the task of | taking care of the physical resources of the country in the spirit that has made | Utah what it is. The President then spoke at some length | on the benefits that are being derived from irrigation. Secretaries Moody and Wilson also| spoke briefly. Secretary Moody aroused | considerable enthusiasm by promising to name a battleship Utah if Congress would session, as it has this. Leaving the Tabernacle the President was driven to Senator Kearns' residence tle rest. This was entirely an informal affair. President Joseph F.' Smith of the Mormon church, Senator Smoot, Gov- ernor Wells, Congressman Howell and a few personal friends of the President and | Senator Kearns made up the party. | Shortly before 1 o'clock the President bade his guests good-by and was driven to the Short Line depot and a few min- utes later the train, amid good-by cheer- ing, pulled out for Ogden. e GREAT CROWD AT OGDEN. People of Northern Counties Give Rousing Welcome. OGDEN, Utah, May 2).—President Roosevelt to-day met and talked with the thousands of Utahians gathered here from all the counties of Northern Utah. The train made the run from Salt Lake Besides the regular party, the President was accom- panied by Senators Smoot, Kearns, Du- bois of Idaho and Clark of Wyoming. The crowds gathered to hear and see the President were the largest ever gath- ered in Ogden. The Southern Pacific shops closed in a half holiday and allowed the employes a chance to attend the re- ception. The parade was over a mile in length and the line of march took the party through the principal streets of the city and occupled an hour. All along the line of march the streets were crowded to the ropes that had been stretched to pre- vent a jam. Features of the parade were the large assemblage of G. A.
