The first address Of the morning ses-
sion was made by Elder C. D. Field
sted, who EXPRESSED his JOY in the
teachings Of the priesthood. and desired
that the saints should adhere to their
instructions and be faithful 20 the coy
enants they made
He was followed by E,der 3. Il. Rob-
erts He was clad in the knowledge
that the saints had been blessed dur
ing the conference with the presence Of
the Holy Spirit. such meetings he said
would increase the faith Of the saints
and were calculated to enable them to
Igmain steadfast and faithful until the
END came.
Elder George Reynolds was also hap
py in his association with the people
Of God He knew the work was of God,
for no men IN themselves could have
accomplished what the saints had done.
The Latter Day Saints. ne said were
engaged in the work Of regenerating
the world, and if they obeyed the teach
inGs Of the priesthood. the day of their
triumph would not be long delayed.
Elder J. Golden Kim6an. who made
the next address, referred to the many
shortcomings prevalent among the peo-
PIE Of God. and said their was great
necessity for missionary work at home
Parents should be much more careful
in the tTainins Of their children. Many

through the agency Of well conducted
mutual Improvement associations. He
considered that they should be rigor-
ousiy taught in all that pertains 10 the
gospel and should furthermore. be
made familiar with the working of the
Holy Spirit. He concluded with an ad
monitor 10 the saints TO lead lives
more strictly in accordance with the
moral law than they had done hereto
fore.
Apostle Abraham Owen Woodruff ex-
pressed his regret that many elders
who had performed missions in the
world frequently lost their first zeal
and became negligent. People should
prevent their faith from becoming luke
warm, and then there would be little
danger Of their becoming careless.
HeA7as followed by Elder John T. D.
McAllister, who spoke of his faith in
the ordinances of the gospel and rever-
ence for the priesthood.

WHAT ECKELs FOUND.

Comptroller of the Currency EckelS
was again at his desk at the treasury
department this afternoon, having re-
turned from his tlip 70 she enemy's
country"
Il visited Montana, Colorado, Utah
and Nebraska" said Mr.. Eckels today.
There is no doubt that the condition
of all classes of people in those states
has materially improved The improve
ment has come rapidly and perrneates
all lines of industry. It began with the
agricultural class. The farmers have
large crops and are getting good prices
for them. The cattle raisers are beue-
flied by a substantial increase in the
price of cattle, and the same is true
of the sheep rasers. The improvement
in agricultural interests has had it's ef
feet upon the railroads by increasing
their earnings. This puts money into
circulation and has enabled people to
discharge their debts and thereby bene-
flied the merchants. In the course of
my journey I saw a great many bank
ers and they all reported a good bust
ness. Bank clearinSs have increased
very materially and bank deposits are
larger.
1T would be foolish to attempt TO
deny the fact that the people of that
section are attached to silver and to
any policy which would seem to be in
its interests. They are hoping that
something may be done TO raise the
price of silver, but in the meantime
they are not sitting down idly and
folding their hands"

position which God designed to see

Afternoon Session.

Elder Seymour s. Young spoke first
at the afternoon services He opened
with reference TO a visit to Lincoln,
Neb., where the jail in which Elder
George Reynolds was once confined is
located. lie had also seen the road OF
the Utah Central and was able to locate
many camping places Of the pioneer
Saints.
Among the visitors from Utah. Idaho
and Arizona nothing was said OF IL
rigation, as the people seemed to sup
pose that ii originated in Ohio. All
this was a mistake.
He said he had visited the headquar-
tiers Of the missionary conference and
that the association proved very en-
joyabie. He Was greatly pleased with
the late pioneer celebration, as 1t had
resulted in spreading through the land
correct Information regarding the
Saints. BE referred TO the habit OF
1900 missionary elders OF travelling
without money, a custom, ne said,
which made a great impression upon
strangers.

Washington, Oct. 6.-Chairman Jeff
reys Of the Uncompahgre allotment
commission has asked the Indian Office
for permission for delegation of Ute
chiefs to visit Washington.
1t is stated in the application that
the Indians are suspicious about the
work of the commissioners and doubt
their authority. It is believed that if a
delegation of leading chiefs came On
to Washington and conferred directly
with the commissioner Of Indian af
fairs and the secretary OF the interior,
it would be very helpful in adjusting
the allotments.
The commissioner Of Indian affairs
has not yet decided whether he shall
permit the Indians to come. There are
no objections or his part to their max
ing the trip, but owing to the fact that
the available appropriation is not large
enough TO permit the necessary eX-
penditure, it is probable that the chiefs
