the Public Building.
HE is DECIDEDLY IN ERROR

The Davis County Democrats Organ
ize-Dr. Graves Bailed Out

DENVER, Col, May 25. Especial tele
gram to THE HERALD. Several of the
architects who went to the trouble aud ex-
pense of submitting plans for the Salt
Lake court house in the competition as yet
undecided, have left the territory of Utah
with feelings which will probably deter
them from again visiting that section of
the country. H. W. Kirchner has returned
to this city and Of all the disguised gentle
men perhaps Mr.. Kirchner had the best
reasons for his action in promptly with
drawing his design and shaking the dust
OF Salt Lake from off his feet, There were
fifteen competitors and eleven of them were
said 10 have been dropped. They composed
some Of the best known members of their
profession in the country and now it trans
plres that several of them were not drop
ped, but Indignantly left the city when
they found that by misrepresentation they
had been led TO spend a great deal of time
and money. "Why," said Mr.. Kirchner
TO HERALD reporter to-day, "the whole
matter has been an abominable concentra-
ton OF ignorance and density. There were
three of Us left in the ring, but

1t is stated that the committee are in a
quandary, beng left with one or two un-
worthy designs on their hands which can
be duplicated in any country town, the
architects having quit so opaque body of

A Pension Office lnYestiaation.

WASHINGTON, May 25.-Assistant Secre-
tary Bussey and Commissioner Raum in.
stituted an investigation at the pension
office to-day into the charges preferred
against Major Barker, chief of the records
division, for appropriating money to his
personal use which was raised for the
widow of a clerk recently deceased, and
also. against u. M. Donohue, who indorsed
notes and represented money lender not
employed in the office.
Twenty witnesses were examined, the
bulk OF the testimony showing conclusively
Barker never had the money belonging 10
the widow in his possession. The conclu-
sion Of the investigation will, it is under
stood, exonerate Barker, but the charges
against Donohue were fully substantiated
by the testimony adduced. The assistant
secretary said he was satisfied Donohue
was using his position for personal gain
and would recommend his dismissal.

TWO TERMS
Senator Stewart Will Offer g.
Constitutional
Amendment That the President Of the United
States Shall Not be Eligible to Re-Elec-
tiOn-His Argument Therefor.

Especial to THE Observation-Disclosures Dispatch
NEW YORK, May Ex-senator Stewart is
opposed to the President of the United
States having a second term of Office. Here
is what he said in course of an interview
tonight: ''Ho be President of the United
States for four years is honor enough for
one man. To fill that place properly ought
to satisfy the ambition of any American
citizen. The people have right to the IN
divided and unbiased services of the
executive upon whom they confer such dis
tinguished honors. The temptation to use
the high Office of the President for cleo
pioneering purposes should be removed.
President Cleveland before his election
took the right view of the question. He
was then opposed TO a second term, but the
temptation was too great for him as 1T had
been for all his predecessors and will be for
all his successors under the constitution as
1t IS. The constitution should be amended
All the objections urged against a third
term apply equally to second term [

which | will introduce at the next session
of Congress. 1t will have no application To
the campaign of 1892, and will be wholly
impersonal because it cannot possibly affect
the present incumbent or any person who
has held the Office of President. It's opera
ton will look to the future and provide
against the evil growing out of presidential
campaigns in the White House,

[Specialt to THE HERALD-Exa miner Dispatch. !
New YORK, May 25.-In the little floating
chapel at the foot of Pike street and Eas t
river where longshoremen and sailormen
gather on Sundays to listen to scriptural
readings and homely sermons, Rev Charles
D. w. Bridgman, late pastor of the fashion
able Madison avenue Baptist church, yes
terday renounced the sect, the teachings of
which he has so long expounded, and for
mally entered the Episcopal church and re-
celved the rite of confirmation at the hands
of Bishop Henry G. Potter. To the right
OF DR.. Bridgman at the altar kneIt Dr..
Alfred L. LOOMS, the well known physi-
clan, who too forsook the Baptist faith
and followed his former pastor into the
Episcopal fold. 1t is now several weeks
since DIR. Bridgman announced from his
pulpit he could no longer preach the doc
thine of eternal punishment and declared
his belief in final restoration as against
the view of endless torment But his
present step will be complete surprise to
many people. DR.. Bridgman when seen by
a reporter later in the day said he was
sorry his personal affairs had had so much
publicity. when l preached the sermon
unasked of which too much has been said.
I had no intention of breaking away from
the Baptist church, but the religious news
papers took such offense at it that be-
heved concerted attack would be made
upon my people because of their LOYALTY to
me, so resigned my charge and have en-
tered into what believe is more catholic
community. In the future I am subject to
the authority of the church. and where 7

was in the city to-day and had an inter
viewwith General Miles about the situa-
tioH of the Indians in the west. The cap
tain has just completed tour of the camps
within radius of 200 miles of Tongue
River agency. and he said the people now
to be feared were not Indians, but cattle
men who want all the land they can grab
for their cattle to roam over and will not
allow anyone else to establish themselves
The cattlemen, Captain Ewers said, were
the people who stirred up the Indians by
stealing their land and taking advantage of
them in every way and the Indians were
complaining bitterly of the encroachments
of these marauders.
