Governor Smiths Opinion,

OGDEN, Utah, May 17.-Governor
Robert 3. Smith of Montana was in Og.
den, arriving from the coast en- route to
Helena. Relative to the appointment of
Senator Clark to the United States SEN
ate by Lieutenant Governor Sprggs he
spoke in very vigorous terms of what he
termed Contemplate trickery." He said:
"This man Clark has been convicted by
the United States senate of perjury, brib-
cry and fraud, and 1t is an insult to the
senate to send him back to that body. 1t
is a disgrace, shame and humiliation upon
the people Of Montana, and the senate
should act upon the resolutions and show
him that they do not want him there, as
he can take the hint no other way"

LONDON, May 17.-The British relief
80 miles south Of Mafeking, on Tuesday,
according to q telegram received We'd
nesday night at Lourenco Marques from
Molopo. 100 miles north Of Matching.
This intelligence Is accepted here with
some reserve because it is difficult to IN
derstand how the news could have been
SO quickly put on the wire from place
1872 miles from the scene of the engage
ment.
A correspondent Of The Morning Post,
presumably Mr.. John Stuart, is reported
captured by the Beers at Kraai Pan.
The British public is keenly expectant
of the announcement that Mafeking has
been relieved. In army circles the opinion
seems to prevail that this has already
been accomplished, although tive hours
after midnight the war office asserted
that news of the relief had not been re-
ceiyed.
Lord Roberts continues passive at
Kroonstadt. His cavalry are stretching
like semicircular screen many miles in
length, with overlapping tanks, The rail-
way will probably be completed today.
The Daily Express publishes this morn

Mr.. Wessels-1t would never do, Of
course, for the British to know that we

him to know that We are thinking OF

Then, resuming the English language,
Mr.. Fischer began by blaming Mr.. Cecil
Rhodes for bringing on the war.

CHICAGO, May 1.-THE friends OF
President Mckinley in the temperance
committee Of the conference who made Q
losing fight against the adoption of Ger
tain paragraphs in the report which crit
icise the president and censure him fol
his acceptance of the Griggs decision in
the anticanteen law will take the fight
to the floor of the conference in the form
Of minority report, substituting other
paragraphs for the Objectionable senti-
ments.
DR.. J. q. Price of the New York CON
ference, who submitted minority report
from the subcommittee, will present the
matter to the conference today, 1t will
be signed by over score of the members
Of the committee and it is said by its
champions will have strong support in
the conference.
The majority report of the subcommit-
tee on all matters before it, including the
criticism of the president, was adopted
by the general committee yesterday after
Il long fight on several paragraphs which
referred to the attitude Of the church on
the license question. The report indorses
total abstinence OIL the part Of the mem
bers and ministers of the church and fra
ternity with other societies and organiza-
lions in the cause of temperance.
Two additional missionary bishops,
with authority equal with those already
in the field, will be elected by the general
conference to assist Bishop ThOburn In
southern Asia If the recommendation Of
the committee on episcopacy is adopted.
The report of the committee will be pre-
scented to the committee today by DR.. L.
B. Nicely.
At least another session will be re-
quired by the committee on the state of
the church before 1t can agree on report
on the question Of raising the ban on
amusement as prayed for and against by
numerous memorials. The entire session
yesterday was devoted to the matter, and
it is expected that the final vote will be
taken Friday. 1t is also expected from
the tone of the debate in the committee
that the vote will favor the removal Of
the prohibitory ban on at least some Of
the amusements now discountenanced.
The report of the third ballot for bish-
ops, 1t is said, will show gain Of up
ward of 40 votes for DIR. J. +. Berry and
a corresponding loss to DR.. Bowen, the
colored candidate. Many of the leaders
declare it will take at least six more bal
lots for any of the candidates to secure
the requisite two-thirds vote and that the
balloting for bishop may consume a
weeks time

have been current for some weeks in to-
bacco circles of an impending consolida'

more persistent that ever yesterday. 1t

independent concern with large capital
and strong backing in opposition to the
