Havana, April THE Cuban gener-

decided to reinstate General Maxine
Gomez as commander in chief. They
also decided to appoint an executive
board of three generals to assist him in
distributing the $4,000, 600, in the details

the congregation listened and looked
breathlessly, he stood mute and mo-
tionless. At length he began again,
but it was along a very different line of
thought He said: "The Latter-day
Saints are devoted to the country and
to the constitution. The constitution
is q sacred record, written by inspired
men. 1t has been made manifest on
all occasions when our country has
needed us that the Latter-day Saints
are ready to lay down their lives in
defense of the flag and of the constitu-
ton. We are a iberty-loving people
and we respect the government.
But we can labor and wait. We know
that intelligence must rule in the end.
Mob violence and mob rule is distress
ing, but the rule of q government of in
telligence is what we desire. We favor
good government. We give our chill
dren the best education we can, for we
want them to be taught the truth"
CRITICISED MOODY.
Apostle Teasdale spoke somewhat
strongly concerning the doctrines
preached by Evangelist Moody. "They
say that these ordinances are not nee
essary," said he. Il tell you there are on
the earth many anti-Christs, but one
Christ. Anti-Christ says these ordi-
AAeSAAScf5 eA1C hllNooNi41lcll. SIA4 ol say .
they are essential. And they have to
be administered by the proper author
ity. If We expect to enjoy eternal life
we must accept these ordinances"
In concluding Apostle TeasdaIe spoke
at some length of the benefits of a
well-spent life as exemplified in those
of Presidents Smith, Young, Taylor and
Woodruff.
The choir and congregation sang the
d, IL t., -%a.,s
Way" and after the benediction had
been pronounced by Elder B. II. Rob-
erts the conference adjourned until 2

BILLY SMITH BACKS DOWN
REFUSES TO MEET GEORGE
GREEN IN FRISCO.
Gave the Excuse That There Was Not
Enough Money In the House-A
Wretched Fiasco.'

San Francisco, Call April THE
much-discussed fight between George
Green and mysterious" Billy Smith
resulted in a wretched fiasco. After an
| intermediate wait, the 1000 people who
| had come to Woodward's gardens ex-
| pecting to witness a contest were
obliged to defer that experience, and all
| that they received from the National
| club under whose auspices the contest
was to have taken place, was an eX-
change of coupons, the new pasteboard
e1titling the Loldc1. to admission to
the next fight" under the same man
| agement, or, if too vigorous protest
was made, the moneyNwas returned TO
the Disguised patrons.
AT $40 p. m. Green came into the
ring, after a long delay. Smith did not
appear, however. and it was announced
! that Smith refused to go on because
there was not sufficient money in the
house to warrant a contest. He de-
manded a guarantee of $4,000, whereas
the total receipts were given as 81, 400.
Green came into the ring prepared to
fight, and stated to the crowd that he
should demand his part of the purse.
! When the announcement was made
that there would not be a fight and
| tickets would be given to all those
present emitting them to admission to
the next fight by the National club,
there was a wild uproar by the $500
people present.
Hoots and yells greeted Smiths name,
and when finally that eccentric pugilist
came into the ring to make a statement
he was met by all sorts of jeers and
cat-calIs, such as coward, 'quitter.
You're a. dead one" and other uncom-
plimentary things. Finally Captain
Gillen, in charge of the police, demand
ed that Smith be heard. Smith simply
stated that there was not enough
money in the house and consequently
he would not go on. He then left the
ring in his street clothes and went out
of the building.

President Joseph F. Smith began very
mildly, speaking of the divine mission
of Joseph Smith. But presently he
changed the course of his address
abruptly.
There is one thing which I want to
speak of right here" he began. "There
have been many efforts recently to
bring reproach on Zion, but they have
! been in every case unWittingly Of ad-
vantage to the cause of Zion. They
are bringing good where they thought
to bring evil. 1 refer to what has been
said and is being said because a mem
Der of the church has aspired to po-
Gtical honorS and has reached the goal
to which he has aspired, by the votes
OF the people. They seek to make the
church responsible for the election of
one of its members to an office of honor
in the house of representatives of the
United States congress. Let me say to
this ongregation-and l think l will
be borne out by the brethren in what !
say-that Brother Roberts was not and
never was the candidate of the Church
Of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
The church never had anything to do
with his election, save in this, that
members of this church, exercising
their right of suffrage as American
| citizens, cast their votes for him.
MISERABLE SCOUNDRELS.
"These miserable scoundrels are try
ing to blacken the character of the
church by their lying charges, with the
aim and end to make it appear that
the church, as a church, is responsible
for the election of Brother Roberts.
They are trying to bring odium on the
church by this means. 1 tell you, and
tell them, that it is not true. Brother
Roberts was the candidate of his own
party; he was elected by his own party,
and the church had nothing to do with
it any more than it had to do with the
election Of a representative from New
York City. The people have divided
into political parties and vote accord
ing to their predictions, and l know
that the facts will bear me out when l
say that the church is not responsible
for the acts Of either of the political
parties in any shape or form. If we
were, we would stop this bitterness and
animosity. We would have peace in
the ranks. 1t is proof positive, that this
wrangling is going on, that we have
nothing to do with either party. If we
did, we would put a>stop to it. But
think I have said enough along these
lines and you all understand it now
Then President Smith went on to talk
on questions of less vital interest, urg-
ing the people to sustain and uphold
z. c. NJ. l., and presently he con-
Guided.
A hum of conversation came from all
over the congregation, for every one
was discussing the words of President
Smith on the Roberts case.
President George Q. Cannon caused a
hush to come over the throng by an
nounced the closing hymn, we Thank
You, oh, God, for Prophet" and after
the hymn the benediction was pro-
nounced by Elder George Reynolds and
the conference adjourned until 10
o'clock Sunday morning.

DAMAGE BY FLOODS.
Railroad Bridges In Wyoming Are
Threatened With Destruction.
fcoaoioI IN The HeraIdl

Cheyenne, Wyo., April Floods are
already causing trouble in Wyoming.
IT is feared that the big railroad bridge
of the Cheyenne & Northern which
spans the North Platte at Grin juno
ton. $50 miles north of this place. will
be carried away by the ice and water,
which now reach to the ties. A large
quantity of dynamite and powder was
sent north this morning, with the hope
that the ice can be broken up before
the bridge is damaged.
Numerous washouts have occurred on
the Union Pacific between Laramie and
Green River, and water now covers the
track in many places. Several county
road bridges in southeastern Wyoming
have suffered from the high water and
many will be carried away

in an eminently practical sermon
John Henry Smith spoke of the posi-
ton which the Mormon church has at
tanned in the world, holding that this
had not been gained solely from the
spiritual instruction which the gospel
taught Our practical application of
our faith" he said. has brought US a
fair share of respect and esteem. Our
pioneers first braved the wilderness and
by their industry and energy made here
an oasis in the desert. They were the
first to take up the system of irriga-
ton in cultivating the land of these
hills. And it is this material and prac-
teal side of our religion, this carrying
of our faith into our everyday life,
which has drawn to US many converts
Our wisdom, our foresight, our pru-
dence, our industry have made us re-
snected in the outside world" He urged
the present generation to follow more
closely the example of their fathers, by
striving as they had done to make the
farms of Utah turn out the best class
of products in the country.
He said that the church had two
fold mission to perform; to teach the
gospel and to inculcate material wis
dom and practical knowledge, so that
the whole west should be placed upon
an advanced plane of civilization.
L III INNS lliGii " a inherent subject,
he spoke Of the good which could be ac-
complished by the dissemination of lit
erature which told the truth about the
Mormon people. He urged that the
newspapers and magazines which de-
Tended Mormonism be sent abroad
through the country and world. Espec-
tally he advocated spreading broadcast
the writings of such non ormons as
Charles Ellis. who, living among the
Mormons, wrote the truth about them
and defended them at every opportun-
ity.

NEW PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH.
Prospect of Early Building Bright
ened By Visit of New York Divine.

Rev. c. L. Thompson DID,, secretary
of the board of home missions of the
Presbyterian church, with headquar-
tiers in New York, was in Ogden yes
terday and has just about completed a
tour of the state investigating the con-
ditionS of the Presbyterian organiZa-
tons in Utah and the west generally.
AS secretary of the board of home
missions Mr.. Thompson represents the
expenditure of about $1,000,000 annually
on church work in this country. While
here he took a drive up the canyon to-
gether with his wife, Rev. James Byers
and a number of other Ogden people.
Mr.. Thompson expressed himself as
encouraged over the progress of Pres
byterian work in Utah and pleased with
the evidences of material prosperity.
He was impressed with the need of
Ogden for a larger and better church
and set about in a practical manner TO
bring about such a result. He pro-
cured data on the value of the founda-
ton already built, the original plans
of the proposed structure. together
with the probable cost of the new
church and the amount of outside aid
which would likely be needed. While
somewhat conservative in all things,
Mr.. Thompson nevertheless expressed
himself as in favor of the early build
ing of the edifice and the prospect of
its completion at an early date are
quite favorable.
