UTAH'S CHANGES GOOD
Its Admission as State Is Now
 Very Probable.
NO TARIFF BILL CAUCUS LIKELY.

Tho Delegate From Utah Ably Defends His
 State From the Sur of PolyEamy-The
 Fight For the Repeal of the Elections
 Law Begins In the Senate.
 WASHINGToN, Dec, l3 The house dis cusSed the question of pinning another star on the American flag, The consideration of the bill for the admission of Utah into the sisterhood of states was begun. The principal point at issue was whether the enabling act should contain a provision inn posing pains and penalties for polygamous marriages, the contention on the one hand being that the state should come in on an equal footing with other states unhandi- capped by such provision; on ths other, that as polyGamy had been stamped out by the federal statute, and as the admission of the territory would repeal that statute, congress should make 1t practically part ot the enabling act.
 Mir. Morse of Massachusetts, in opposing the bill, took occasion to make a vicious assault on Utah and MormOnism, recalling all the outrages of plural marriage, the crimes of the Danites, the Meadow massa- ere, blood atonement and the revelations of the Endowment house.
 Delegate RawIIns DeTsnds Utah.
 MT Rawlins, the Utah delegate, in the course of brilliant speech championing
 
 the representative from the Bay state very badly He opposed the amendment pro posed relative to polyCamy as too complex, but expressed perfect willingness to ac- cept the single amendment suggested by Mir. Powers of Vermont prohibiting polyg- amous marriages forever.
 Mir lIarter of Ohio opposed the bill on the ground that it gave a sparsely settled western territory too much influence in the senate. The general impression seemed to he that his real object was to prevent the election of two more free coinage Demo- crats to the senate. The debate will con clude today. As most of the representa- tives have withdrawn their opposition to the bill, it is expected to pass by an over whelming majority.
 The first gun of the inevitable parlia- mentary battle in the senate upon the ques- | tion of the repeal of the federal elections l law was fired, and it came from one of the | opponents of the repeal-SenatOr Cullom ! of Illinois.
 Senator stewart of Nevada, in a short speech, advocated the repeal of the cleo lions law and incidentally gave expression l Ia some of his well known views on the financial question.
 l \ resolution calling upon the president for additional information in the Hawaiian matter was laid over in order that Mir. Frye | of Maine might submit some remarks.
