 | The NEWS was in error last week in stating that the White Mountain Ex- press on the Berkshire Division had made it's last trip for the season. In the first place the White Mountain Ex- press does not run over the Berkshire Division. In the second place the train we had reference to is the express which passes Canaan on Saturdays (going north) at 4.51 p. m. and passes Canaan on Sundays (going south) at 7.26p D. m. It is known as the "Hus- bands Train" It will make its last trip of the season next Saturday and Sunday. The NEWS was not the only paper in the state that was in error in regard to that train being discontinued.

moved-(a) by amnesties of two presidents:
OBJ by the enabling act passed by Congress;
(c) by the transition Of Utah from terri
torial condition to that of statehood
%. 1t further appears that the crime al
legged against the representative from Utah
does not constitute a disqualified ton for a
member of Congress unless the House and
Its committee are prepared to assert their
power and right to add to the oualifica-
lions prescribed by the Constitution of the
United States.
II. And further the proposed proceedings
by this committee would deprive the mem
Der from Utah of the constitutional right
to trial by a court Of competent jurisdic-
ton. and by a jury Of his peers within the
state and district whore the crime al
legged to have been committed and would
deprive him of property and rights without
due process of law.
The member from Utah therefore asks
the committee to stop it's proceedings and
consider the prima facie right of the repre-
sentative from Utah to be sworn In as a
member of the House of Representatives
for the F1fty-sixth Congress. The men,
Der from Utah is prepared to submit his
certificate of election to the committee. his
certificate of citizenship issued by United
states court of competent jurisdiction, and
Is ready to affirm: under oath that he pos
sesses all the qualifications prescribed by
the Constitution for representative and
is willing to take the bath of office pre-
scribed by the Constitution.
LAS to the protests of certain sectarian
ministers from Utah, Roberts hold that the
committee ought not to consider them for
the reason that the affidavits presented by
them bear dates as follows: Thos. J. Ban.
don, February IL. 1853: Ray It. Brandon
February Is. 1899! Lucia p Miles, Febru-
airy p. 1899; Mrs. Mary McDougall, May
81, 1899. all dates being several months
prior to the departure of the representative
from Utah for the east. For more than
year after the charges began to be made
against him the member from Utah was
in and about Salt Lake all the time and
seven months after Bandon's affidavits were
drawn up by T. Schroeder; and therefore
said protestants had ample time to insti-
| tute proceedings before the courts of Utah.
| which were and are open for the prosecu-
ton of the charges made In the past.

they should have established the guilt of

Secretary Longs Bill Providing for
Four Classes.

SIdSSeS.
Secretary Long has transmitted to the
naval committee of Congress the draft of a
bill providing for the Redistribution of YES
sells of the navy, excepting torpedo boats
ana other special vessels. as follows:
Vessels of 5000 tons, displacement or more
to be classed as frst5rates; those of 5000
tons or more and bef6we5, 900 tons as Sec
ond rates; those Of 1905 tons or more and
below 5000 tons as, third rates, and those
OF less than LOCO tons as fourth rates.
The bill provides that the vessels of the
four classes shall be commanded as nearly
as may be as folloIs:. Ia
First and second rates by captains; Sec
ond and third rates by commanders; fourth
rates by lieutenant commanders and lieu
tenants; torpedo boats and other unclassi-
fled vessels by officers below the grade of
lieutenant commanders
1t Is represented that the proposed amend
ments OF the existing statutes is made nee
essary by the radical changes in the de-
signs Of naval vessels. The present CLASH
fcation relates to vessels of designs now
obsolete, and refers to period when often
slVe strength depended upon elements rad
lcally different from those by which the
qualities OF modern ships of war are deter
mined. Secretary Long urges the passage
OF the proposed bill on the ground that it is
practically impossible to carry out the ex-
fsting law respecting the classification of
Warships.

procedure for further action 1t was deter
mined to commence tomorrow the exam
iration of such witnesses as may appear to
give evidence on the charges against Mr..
Roberts
The committee is endeavoring to avoid

thus far upon all matters at issue, and that
there has been no serious difference of opin-
ion among the members at any stage Of the
proceedings
Sat Behind Closed Doors.
The committee resumed It's session at 10
O'CLOCK but, contrary to expectation, the
early hours were behind closed doors.
This, 1t was explained, was to permit the
committee to receive and discuss reports
on procedure. form of subpoena etc. Mean
time Mr.. Roberts himself and quite a gath
er1ng of Mormons and Gentiles stood out
side the committee door awaiting admis-
sion.
Mr.. Roberts looked careworn. His secre-
be of his faith. He was prepared to con-
tinue his argument on the demurrer to the
right of the committee to try him The
Gentle delegation was more numerous in

Mr.. Schroeder, to whom Roberts inter-
posed rather sensational objection on Sat
urday, and the others who have come on
from Utah to direct the proceedings against
him
The committee remained in private ses-
sion until noon, when an adjournment was
taken until 10 o'clock tomorrow.
MIR. TayIer's Statement

PREPARED Tor the first time to hear wit
nesses, and those who appeared tomorrow
would be heard, although there would he

MI Tayler added that the hearings here
did not mean that the committee would
not go to Utah. 1t was sincerely anxious to
escape the trip. he said. and it was prob
able that some means would be found to
avoid 1t.
Mr.. Roberts saw Mr.. Tayler as soon as
the committee adjourned and submitted
his brief on the demurrer against the au-
thority of the committee. He also asked
II 1t was definitely understood he would be
admitted to all hearings when testimony
argument was heard, and Mr. Tayler
assured him in the affirmative
