CENSURE OF ROBERTS
Rejected BY WOMEN
A Bolt in the National Council
Barely Ayerted.
The Mormon Delegates Succeed in
Forcing Compromise.
No Reference 10 the tOnGressman-
Elect in the Substitute ResoIu-
ton Finally Adopted.

For a while yesterday afternoon there
were strong indications of a bolt in the
National Council OF Women. The trouble
was brought about by an effort on the
part of a majority OF the delegates to adopt
a resolution protesting against the seating
of Congressman elect Roberts of Utah
There are nine ladies of the Mormon
faith among the delegates to the conven-
ton, and while they did not object to the
passage of a resolution directly bearing on
MIR. Roberts. they insisted that the reso.u
ton should in no way reflect upon their
Church. shortly after the opening of the
afternoon session Il set Of resolutions,
filling about Sly typewriter pages, were
brought in by a special committee, headed
by Mrs May Wright Sewall These reso-
lutions were considered one by one and
adopted separately. with little objection
until the last upon the list was reached.
over this one the delegates disagreed and
engaged in n controversy that lasted more
than two hours. during which time the
more conservative members displayed
signs of deep ag4iety.
The committee had been laboring for Il
week upon these resolutions. and the
National Christian Temperance Union
plea for the adoption Of the last reso.u-
ton with regard to Mr. Roberts. Amend
ment after amendment was offered and
rejected until one very broad in its scope,
was presented In an impersonal way it
was intended to touch the case of Mr..
Roberts. This resolution read as follows:
Resolved. That no person should be allowed to
hold a place in any lawlnaAing body OF the Ia
ton who is not aw-ahidng citizen
The delegates of the Mormon faith voted
for this resolution. They claimed that
plural marriages were no longer tolerated
| by the Mormon Church and that Mr.. Rob
erts did not represent the best people OF
| that Church. These ladies expressed them
selves freely upon the subject and stated
! that MIR. Roberts had been nominated by
an enemy of the Mormon Church and ii
| their opinion he was not fitted for seal
! in Congress.
The delegation of Mormon ladies include:
| Mrs. Snow. third wife of the head of tht
| Mormon Church. and he" daughter Miss

MEETING OF THE D. A. R.
Convention VIII Assemble mt the
Grand Opera House.


The annual convention of the Daughters
of the American Revolution Will begin on
tomorrow at the Grand Opera House.
The convention promises to be notable
in many respects. particularly as it is the
first meeting of any kind that has been
held By this society since the war with
Spain began, and they have done great
deal to relieve the sufferngs of the sol
diers who went into the field.
A preliminary meeting of the Daughters
in the city was held last night al the RIGGS
House The meeting was entire'y de-
voted to the exchange of fraternal greet
ings. and adjourned at an early hour.
The hotels of the city are full to their
utmost capacity at the present time. and
the members of the national body are ex-
periencing great deal of difficulty in Sc
curing accommodations. The hostelries
near the place of meeting were kept busy
up to an early hour this morning in pro-
viding the ladies with rooms, and it is
probable that many were compelled to 20
much farther up town before they were
supplied with sleeping accommodation.
The trains coming into the city yester-
day nearly all brought their quota to fill
the ever increasing throng which attends
these meetings. and it is expected that
when the president general calls the meet
ing to order tomorrow morning there will
not be a vacant seat in all the Grand Opera
House.
The first two days of the session will be
devoted to the reading of the reports OF
the officers OF the association. These will
contain full account of the work done by
the Daughters during the war with Spain,
! and will undoubtedly be the most interest
ing of all the proceedings. There will
probably be about seven hundred dele
gates present

LAFAYETTE MONUMENT.
Meeting Tonight at the CoIumbi:
Thenter

The citizens of Washington propose to
endorse the project for the erection of 4
monument to Lafayette in Paris on July
4. 1900. and tonight a patriotic meeting
will be held in the Columbia Theatre TO
take action toward swelling the funds now
being gathered for the construction of the
monument. It is announced by the COM
mittee in charge that an outpouring of
prominent men is assured, including Ad-
miral Schley. Gen. Joseph Wheeler Gen
Thomas Vincent. Major Goodloe president
Of the Society of the Sens of the Revolu-
ton The theatre has been divided into
sections for the occasion, and the Daugh-
ters of the American Revolution will oc-
cupy a prominent place. The boxes on
the left of the stage have been assigned
to Mrs. Daniel Manning and the board of
managers Of the Daughters of the Ameri-
can Revolution.
Several months ago the school children
of the District contributed several hun
dred dollars TO the fund to build the monu-
ment. and their efforts will be pleasantly
acknowledged by Capt Charles c. DANES
treasurer OF the fund.
The idea OF dedicating a monument TO
General Lafayette in Paris had its origin
in the mind of Robert ]. Thomson. of Chi
cago, who suggested to the liberty loving
people of America the raising of a monu-
ment to- mark the grave of the distin-
gUished Frenchman. 1t will be twentieth
century tribute from the people Of this
nation TO be unveiled with fitting Cere-
.nony July 4, 1900.

RECEPTION TO THE PUBLIC.
The President VIII Give IL Next We'd
nesday Evening.

The public reception which was to have
been given by President and Mrs. Nc
kinley on Tuesday last. but which was
postponed on account of the severe weather
prevailing at the time. is announced TO be
held the evening of the 22d of February.
Washington's Birthday. from to IL
oclock.
This is to be the first public reception
held by the President since the beginning
of hostilities with Spain. 1t is also the
initial social function given at the Execu-
tive Mansion during Lent. When the biz
zard necessitated the postponement of the
reception last Tuesday, it was understood
that the function was abandoned for the
season. Mr.. Mckinley has received since
that time, however. many requests from
the people not to deprive them of the last
opportunity OF seeing him until after Lent
and in consequence he has deemed it ad-
visable to ignore the custom OF society to
refrain from social functions during the
forty days penance. He Will. therefore
receive in company with Mrs. Mckinley
and the ladies of the Cabinet in the Blue
Parlor of the Executive Mansion on the
evening named.

END OF MOTHERS CONGRESS
Many Earnest Women Read Papers
Before the Delegates.

The third and last days sessions of the
Mothers Congress, held in the First Bap-
tist Church, Sixteenth and Streets, were
largely attended The morning session
was devoted to the transaction of business.
Two changes in the bylaws were made.
one providing that the place and time of
the next convention of the congress shall
be named by the executive board. These
conventions are to be held every third
year. when officers and delegates are to be
selected for the ensuing years. Another
change in the bylaws provides that pom
nations shall be made by committee to
consist of one delegate from each State. to
be elected by the delegates from that State.
Mrs. ]. n. Porter. of Hillsboro, Tex
from the Mothers Department of the W.
C. T. L. of Texas. made a report of the
work in her district.
Mrs. Bourland, of Illinois, made an in
teresting report of the work of the Illinois
Society for Child Study.
The closing session of the congress was
held last evening and several papers of
interest were read. Rev. E. Laurence
Hunt. of New York, spoke of the duty of
the State in training children for citizen
ship. Mr.. Hunt has made a special study
of the subject and contended that it was
the duty of the State TO give child every
advantage which would go to make it a
good citizen. The proper education of the
child sometimes turned the tide of politi'
cal reverses and made possible such mighty
upheavals of public opinion as poured from
all quarters TO the President last spring
after the blowing up of the Maine.
Mrs. Herman Fl. Birney closed the meet
ing with an address on Literature fol-
Children" The programme called for un-
finished business, and as there was non'
the congress adjourned.
One of the features of the Mothers Con
gress has been the exhibition of literature
and kindergarten materials, which were
displayed to great advantage in the Sun
day school room of the church, on tht
ground floor. This literature has been col
lected by the Mothers Congress and show:
every book which has any bearing on tht
subject of child culture that bears the en-
dorsement of the members of the congress
