Memphis I Charleston Spurts Up Five Per Cent. While the General List A d. zvances Slightly Hut Recedes, Closing at About opening Prices.
 NEW YORK. Dec. 13
 Stocks opened steady and advanced slightly, but the gains were generally lost, the market being quiet to dull The only activity in the regular list was in Lackawanna, which was strong but moved up only fraction. A report that the deal in Ten nessee Coal was over for the present resulted in some selling of that stock, and 1t yielded but re- covered slightly. The most important movement, however. was in Memphis & Charleston, which spurted up five per cent. on the decision of the Supreme court of Alabama prohibiting the East Tennessee from voting the majority of the Memphis Charleston stock, which 1t helds and thus throw ing the control of the company to the minority stockholders. There was renewed selling in the Chicago & East Illinois stocks, especially by Boston parties. and the common dropped nearly three pc cent, most of which was recovered, but the pre- ferred scored drop of six and quarter, only two of which was regained. The market ctosed dull and steady at close to the opening figures.
 Railroad bonds were dull while the tone of the dealings was generally steady. A few marked de- clines were scored among the inactive issues Tho sales reached only $952, 1000.
 Closing prices reported over the private wires of RJINNETJ R SCRANTON Rankers and Rrolers.

fectly quiet. He was tied hand and feet

MORMONISM DEFENDED.
President Woodruff Of the Church Elk
plains the Present Case.

CHICAGO, Ill. Nov. 23.-In response to a
telegram from the Associated Press asking
for his statement concerning the investiga-
ton now in progress in Salt Lake City.
MILFORD Woodruff, president of the Nor
mon church, sends the following dispatch:
SALT LAKE CITY, Noy. 23.-This is the
periodical anti-MOrmon sensation which
we are accustomed to expect in November.
Congress meets in December and it is
presumed that the usual efforts will be
made to secure legislation against the
Mormons. In addition to this, might ex-
plain that we are on the eve of an import
ant municipal election here, in which the
anti-Mormon party, by preventing the
naturalization of MOrmOns and in other
improper ways, hope to be successful.
can truthfully say that there is nothing in
the Mormon religion that is not consistent
with the most patriotic devotion to the
government of the United States. The
revelations and commandments to the
church require that the constitution and
laws of the land shall be upheld. 1t is
also part of our belief that time will
come when this country shall be distracted
by departures from the spirit and letter
of the constitution, and when general law
lessness will prevail and that when that
condition shall arrive the Mormon people
will step forward and take an active part
in rescuing the nation from ruin. AS q
people the Mormons have the highest ven
Grafton from the institutions of the repub-
lie. In regard to the claim that the priest
hood or chief authorities of the church
assert or usurp the right to control the
Mormon people in all their temporal,
including practical affairs, l would
say | am the present head of the
church and do not make any such
claim. 1t would be impossible to exercise
it if did. Concerning the cry about blood
atonement, well, there is this, The foun-
dation of our religious faith is belief in the
atoning of blood of Christ, through which
the resurrection will be brought about.
We believe in the scripture doctrine, "Who
so sheddeth mans blood by man shall his
blood be she'd" We also believe that all
executions for murder should be under
the law of the land and by its officers only.
Statements made by two or three apostate
witnesses to the effect that the endowment
ceremonies involved the death penalty
upon those who leave the church and dis
obey the priesthood, are simply untrue.
1.-The MOrmOnS on the stand decline to
disclose the formula of the endowment be-
cause secret religious rites and ceremonies
are the property Of the individual citizen
and do not belong to the state. You
might as well ask why a Mason, if he were
placed on the witness stand, should re-
fuse to reveal the rites and signs of that
order. l myself am Master Mason and
have been informed that many Masons, as
we'll as people not connected with that
tempt that has been made during the last
few days to exhort personal information
from Mormons Members of other be-
neyolent societies can see that their rights
and organizations would be endangered

CONFLICTING REPORTS OF PETERS
FATE

LONDON, November 23-Conflicting re-
ports in regard to the fate of Dr. Peters
exploring party have been received today.
\ dispatch direct from Zanzibar says:
News has been received here from Laumi
confirming the reports of the death of Dr.
Peters, another German, and all the ma
tives of DR.. Peters party except five por-
tiers. The massacre occurred at Addu
Burroraba, on the Tana river, eight days
march above korkorro. DR.. Peters was
friendly ith-the local tribes, but not
with the chief of the Somaiis, who with a
party of his tribesmen made a night at
tack on the camp. After killing the men,
bers of DR.. Peters party, the natives
looted the campof money and everything
of value and drove off the donkeys ana
camels.
On the other hand, dispatch from Ber-
lin says that the Emin Bey relief commit
tee has received cable dispatch from the
lansing company at Zanzibar which
states that Lieutenant Borchsrt. one of
the commanders of the second column of
Drs. Peters expedition, reports from Lo-
komanil that the SomalIs dispersed an
English expedition: not the expedition
under command of DR.. Peters. Lieu,en-

MRS. SOUTHWORTH CLOSELY HE'LL

MRS. SOUTHWORTH CLOSELY HELD.
NEW YORK, Noy. 23.-Mrs. Hannah B.
Southworth, who murdered Stephen l..
Pettus yesterday, spent very restless
night in her cell. This morning there was
a slight improvement in her condition.
The city physician has given orders that
Mrs. Southworth be kept as quiet as posi-
bic and in consequence the prison warden
has issued peremptory orders that no one
outside of the woman's counsel and rela-
tives be permitted to see her. The warden
stated that IL was expected that Mrs.
Southworth would be much quieter by to-
morrow night and then be inclined to talk
about the tragedy. Counsel for the MUIR
deress called at the prison early today and
talked with his client for long time.
When seen later on and questioned as to
the line of defense. if any, which had been
determined upon, ne replied that the defense
undoubtedly would be insanity. There
was no doubt, Mr.. Hummel said. that Mrs.
Southworth was insane. His client was
incoherent in her statements today. the
RESULT of the great shock her nervous sys-
tenn had sustained, but in a day or two
she would be more rational. As matters
stand Mrs. Southworth's statement of her
many wrongs Is quite clear enough to ena-
bic counsel TO grapple with the case. Dir.
w. B. Martin. the woman's brother was
among her early callers. The scene be-
tween brother and sister is described as of
a most affecting character. Numbers of
curious people visited the Tombs this
morning, thinking Mrs Southworth
would be brought there. They were dis
appointed. Next Tuesday she will be at
the inquest.

GOOD CHANCES FOR IRRIGATION.

TOPEKA, Kan, Nov. 25-Robert Hay.
assistant state geologist, was directed
some time since by the state board of
agriculture to investigate the artisan
wells of Western Kansas in relation to the
matter of irrigation. He has just render
ed his report TO Secretary Moehier. The
report shows that these wells are more
numerous than is generally supposed and
eau be made Of great value as q source OF
water supply Mr. Hay inspected the
wells in Meade. Hamilton, Ford, Stanton,
and Morton counties. He says that north
east of Meade Center is a region six OF
eight miles in length and about two miles
in width in which is a number OF artisan
wells that are flowing There are sixty
five of these wells. Every farm in the
locality has one.
The report concludes: "a ten gallon
well would irrigate five acres. The exist
ing Meade county wells are yielding flow
of about 600 gallons per minute. From
this estimate. which is a reasonable one,
it will Ice seen that 500 acres could be read :
lily irrigated and small fruits and vegeua-
bles be raised in abundance in any year,
however drougthy, and orchards and
groves made to be made to beautify the re-
gion. These in turn would serve to con-
serve the moisture supplied by the rainfall
