CONTROLLED BY PRIESTS.
Some Inside Facts Regarding
Utah Furnished by Gov. West.

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 27.-GOv. Caleb
W. West, of Utah, IL his annual report
to the secretary of the interior notes the
recent partial union of the Mormon and
non-Mormon elements in the territory,
with view to advancing material in
tereSts,'' but remarks that the move
ment is in large measure due TO the
anxiety to secure the admission of
the territory into the Union as a
state. The governor finds that the
chief objection to admitting Utah
into statehood is that it would enthrone
with sovereignty the power of the Nor
mon church, which is foreign TO the
spirit and genius of the Institutions OF
the country. The governor asserts that
he has no religious controversy with
the MOrmOnS except as 10 the practice
of pGlygamy. but in the Mormon p0lity
now controlling the territory he notes
the union of the church in the state.
"The control of the priesthood, which
yields supreme power in all things,
secular as well as SPIRITUAL" he adds,
lis complete and absolute. u The Nor
mgns, he thinks, will dispute his asser-
ton that the government of Utah Is
theoretical, and he recommends the ap
pointment by congress of committee
to make a thorough investigation of

prosecution, he further said, claimed a

gave them no right to. The judge de-
cided TO send the case to the procedure

genuineness of three letters. The de-
PENDANTS do not rely upon the letters

equally true. even if the letters were
not signed as purpOrted. On the day
before the summons i'll this ease was
issued the prosecution secured the isSu-
ance from the court of queens bench of
a writ in an action for libel for $4,000.

a fair report of the proceedings were

clared to be irrelevant and insufficient

Special 10 the Globe.
EDINBURGH, Oct. 27.-In the court of
sessions to-day the case of Mr.. Parnell
against the London Times was again
called. MeSsrs. Strachan and Balfour,
Mr.. Parnell's counsel, moved that the
closure of the record of proof be al
lowed. Mr.. Murray, counsel for the
Times moved that the question of juris-
dictiOn in this case be sent for deter
mination to the procedure roll. The
prosecution had made many alterations
in their complaint. They had omitted
all reference to the statement that Mr..
Parnell had supplied Bryce with money
to enable him to escape justice, and
it was no longer alleged that the state
ment was false, untrue and malicious.
The Judge, thereupOn, stated that this
left the record with only one question.
Mr.. Murray said he wanted the ques-
ton of jurisdiction TO go to the proceed
ure roll. because no relevant averment
as to jurisdiction had been made. He
said that where the defendants state
ments were not met, the plaintiffs made
a simple denial. The prosecution had
taken no notice of averment concerning
English law. Mr.. Strachan replied that

sources to such a degree that no single
nation will suffice to suppress it, and
that only by cooperation can the civil
lied nations succeed in stopping traffic
which is disgrace to the century. The

the German and English people will
prove equal to the task imposed upon
them by sacred principles of religion
and humanity.
