Mormoaize the Confumas Gus Mosas.
Salt Lake, Utah, Nov. 13.-Apostie
Moses Thatcher has been declared con
tImacious' and dropped from TIE rolls
OF the Mormon church.
This was the day fixed by the church
authorities for the trial OF M Thatcher
for his failure to take counsel before taA-
ing Part in political matters e. year ago.
when he was a candidate for United
States senator. A card appeared in the
Deserel News this evening, signed by
the president Of the Twelve Apostles. to
the effect that a meeting Of the apostles
was held and that 1t was unanimously
decided that Moses Thatcher be severed
from the council of the Twelve Apostles
and that he be deprived Of the apostle
ship and other offices in the priesthood.
Mr.. Thatcher refused to appear, claim
ing that ne had been publicly accused be-
fore the people and that he was entitled
to a public trial. In his absence, he was
urs nimausly declared ''contumacious."
Mr.. Thatcher is being pushed by some
o. his friends for the United States SEN
ate.
The Deseret News, the recognized Or
gan of the Mormon church, opposes his
election and says his candidacy rests
solely upon his hostile attitude 10 the
church, to which, ii is thought. rebuke
would come from his success On the
other hand, it is claimed that any attempt
by the church authorities to allow him

HANNA PRONOUNCEs 1T AFAKE.
Alleged Interview Regarding the Treasury
Secretaryship.

Cleveland. O., Nov. 19.-Hon NJ. A.
Hanna stated TO representative of the
Associated Press today that an alleged
interview with him in this city sent out
by theUnited Press wherein he was made
to say that he was ineligible for the port
folio of secretary OF the treasury was
entirely untrue.
You can say for me- said Mr.. Han
ma, that the statement attributed TO me
on that subject is pure fake
While there has been more or less
talk in regard to Mr.. Hanna being bar
red from the treasury secretarYship by
reason of his commercial interests. Il is
held by many wellinformed persons that
the law bearing on the subject does bar
Mr.. Hanna. there are numerous ways iii
which the objections could be removed.
General Horace A. Porter of New York
was a visitor at Mr.. Hanna's Office to-
day. A long conference was held be-
tween the national chairman and the
New Yorker. There is gossip to the ef-
feet that General Porter will be appoint
ed as secretary of war in the Mckinley

There exists in Ligonier; Ind, .

They were joined together by the usual
solemnity of an oath, and tae organiza-
ton was created 70 exist until there was
but one member left. The last survivors
on the night Of the annual banquet
which commentaries each year OF the
society's existence, is to have plates laid
foa ten, eat his supper alone, and thus
end the organization. All members
are now married, and since the organi-
cation 20 years ago there has been but
one Of the mystic circle taken away by
death. 1t has been the custom on the
18th day Of January each year TO have

an hour before the time he was found
unconscious, and called for a drink of
whisky. He appeared at the time to be
partly under the influence of liquor. In
paying for the drink, he displayed a
large roll of bills, and then pulled from
his pocket a heavy gold watch which
was attached to large gold chain. At
ter taking his drink the man left the sa-
icon. This is the last known OF his move
ments until he was found in the weeds
nearly dead. No money, except small
Emount Of change, was found in his
pockets, and he had no watch nor chain.
The police sur1nise that NJ. Arbuckle
had got on an elevated train somewhere
down town and, falling asleep. rode to
the end OF the line; that he then got off
the train and walked down stairs into
the Casino saloon, which is at the foot Of
the elevated stairway and that after
leaving the Casino he was set upon by
thugs, knocked down and robbed. NJ
marks of violence were found on the
body, according to the police, except
slight abrasion on the head. This might
have been caused by blow from sand
bag, or ii might have been received in a
fall. No one living near the scene of the
traedy could be found who had heard
any unusual noise during the early
morning.
A messenger sent to Frederick Siegei

that gentleman to the station TO which
Mr.. Arbuckle's body had been taken

Mr.. Siegel said that Mr.. Arbuckle had
been Slipping at the Fifth Avenue hotel
until within a few days. His later

The neighborhood where the dying

Doean't Believe Much In Flags over School
Houses.

Raleigh, N c., Nov 19.-Dr. j. L. NJ.
Curry. ex-minister of Spain and trustee
OF the Peabody ard Slater funds, made
an address today before the colored stu
dents of Shaw university here in which
he used this rather startling language:
II don't believe much in the idea of
having the United States flag over our
schools. I'd ike to know what the Unit
ed States government has done for our
public schools in North Carolina to de-
mand that the flag should hang over
them. 1t never gave a cent TO Nortii
Carolina schools, except to the A. and n.
colleges. 1t is a deception and fraud
TO put the flag there. 1t is the state
that gives you education"
Speaking of the negro ne said:
Il never could understand why the
negro population remains so compact
in the south, instead of becoming scatter
ed all over the union. The northern men
freed the negro. Why is it the negro
does not go north to be with his friends,
instead of staying in the south among
his enemies
AS to suffrage DR.. Curry said:
'Is don't believe a man who cannot
read mis- ballot ought to be allowed to pu:
it into box" applause among the
negro students)
