ROBERTS RAPED AGAIN.
Judge GOodwin's Reply to the Utah
POIygamist's Address.

SALT LAKE, Dec. 1o.--In an interview
yesterday on the subject of the appeal of
Brigham II. Roberts Judge c. Goodwin, of
the Salt Lake Tribune, said:
THE address of Roberts and its pathetic
appeal is a strange mixture of ignorance
insolence and untruth. He complains of
the composition of the COMMITTEES selected
to hear his case because no one of his
friends was put on it. He is not sure that
he has any friends, and his complaint Is an
indirect accusation that congressman when
they sit as judges, cannot be impartial.
From the TACT that he was stopped on the
threshold or Congress and asked a question
which he refused to answer, he sees all
rights of minorities trampled under foot.
He thinks the representation to which a
State is entitled may be denied il. He for
gets that Congress has control of all its
committees and can call one up at any
time. He forgets. too. that his trial is an
indirect trial OF Utah itself on q matter in
volving the good faith OF her people. His
citation of a rule governing trials under the
criminal law does not apply to this case, as

IDENTITY PROVED.
Aaron WOlfsOhn, Who Insured His
Life md Killed Himself.

LOS ANGELES, Cal, Dec. 10.-All ques-
ton as to the Identification of the man
who as Aaron Wolfsohn. of st, Louis, Sc
cured a life insurance policy for $4,000 here
a few months ago and then committed sui
eide, is now removed. The man who took
out the policy and killed himself is proved
to be Aaron Wolfsohn, both by photo
graphs received from the East, and by
comparison of handwriting. The only un
explained part of the story is as to the
person who claimed In Chicago that he
was Aaron Wolfsohn, and the identity of
some one who wrote letter to the insur-
ance agent here TO the effect that the sup
posed Wolfsohn was not that man, but
that murder had been committed in order
to defraud the insurance companies. The
policy paid to the public administrator
by the company, which afterwards tried to
get il back. The amount will now go &c
the dead mans heirs-at-law.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.-The week does
not promise to be busy one in the Senate,
the indications being for routine business
and short sessions inside the chamber, with
much preparation for future work in the
committee rooms. Senator Mason will open
the week with speech on his resolution
declaring the sympathy of this country
Britain. There may be other brief speeches
upon this and other questions, though there
is a general disposition on the part of SEN
ators TO postpone speechmaking until after
the holidays. The Republican senator's gen.
orally feel that the most important work
for the present is to secure the reorganiza-
tion of the committees, especially the
finance committee, as preliminary to other
work. An effort will be made to complete
the reorganization during the present week.
The finance committee may meet on Tues
day for preliminary consideration of the
finance bill, but this is not yet decided up
on The expectation now is that this bill
will not be taken up in the Senate until
after the Christmas holiday.
The committee on foreign relations will
take up the reciprocity treaties on Wednes-
day. The committee on privileges and elec-
tions will consider the contests over the
senatorial seats in a desultory way, but
the real work on these will not begin until
Saturday, when opposing sounsel will be
heard in the Quay case

propaganda of his church. President Rich

States. Speaking tonight of the case of

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.-The House will
devote the week entirely to the financial
debate on the currency bill. Under the
terms of the special order, adopted Friday.
the general debate will open tomorrow
Immediately after the reading of the jour-
nal and continue daily from noon until 5
o'clock Friday. On Saturday the bill will
be read, paragraph by paragraph. for
amendment under the five-minute rule. The
vote will not be taken until the following
Monday. The debate will probably cover a
wide range. including a general rethreshing
of the campaign issue of 1896. and there
may be some stormy incidents.
The Republicans are arrayed solidly for
the bill. but many of them who have never
before advocated the gold standard doubt
less will have to take the floor to explain
their change of position. On the Democratic
side some of the members are reported as
favoring the bill. but there has been no
canvass made as yet, and 1t remains to be
seen how many OF them will join the Re-
publicans upon this measure.
Representative Overstreet, of Indiana,
who will have charge of the bill on the
floor. will make the opening argument in
its support tomorrow
