Washington, March 27.-It is said at
the state department regarding the
story that Great Britain has apologized
to this government for the action Of
the censor in opening letters addressed
to the United States consul at Pretoria,
that the United States government has
made no demand upon the British gov
eminent for an apology. The officials
say that Mr. Macrum, who was consul
at Pretoria when the mail is said to
have been opened, made no official COM
plant on that subject, and thus the
state department has nothing official
before it to serve as a basis for a de-
mand for an apology.
As stated before, however the Brit
ish government itself voluntarily took
notice or Mr. Macrum's complaint, and
finding that, as an incident to the
transfer Of a large quantity Of mail
from Durham (Which was the place
where our consular mali was usually
landed to Cape Town, resulting in
great congestion and in the handling of
mail by new agents, there had been an
indiscriminate opening OF letters which
probably had affected the consular mail
with others.
Lord Pauncefote speaking for his
government, dissvowed the action of
the censor and declared that it was IN
authorized in respect to Mr.. Macrum' S
mail.
This assurance was given long ago.
and some Of the members OF the house
committee on foreign affairs were ae-
quainted with it at the time

SOCIETY OF PHILIPPINES
IS AFTER
VOL UNTEER FUND BALANCE

WHAT will become Of the 81 left
over from the reception given TO Utah's
heroes last August has been a mooted
question ever since that suspicious
event went down into history. The
Otah Society of the Army OF the Phil
lppines now intends to take a hand in
the figuring of the problem, and at its
meeting last evening the society ap-
pointed a committee 10 wait upon those
VINO have tie funds in cha &c and to re-
quest that goodly portion be turned
over TO the new organization. The CON-
mlttee is composed of Major F. A
Grant, Thomas holberg and Charles r.
Mabey. They will probably confer with
the governor today with regard to the
matter.
Another important step taken at last
nights meeting of the society was the
unanimous decision TO unite with the
Grand Army in the decoration of the
graves of those who fell in two wars.
The request that the union be made
came from the Grand Army, which has
been considering the proposition for
some time. Z. II. Clark, commander
of the j. B. Mexican post, appeared for
the older organization, and extended
the invitation, which was unanimously
accepted. A committee composed of H
u. Sleater, w. H. Farnes and George
Frankenfeld was appointed to meet

ter Resolution and Talk of Amer
lean Womanhood.

Washington, March IA delegation
Of prominent clergynen appeared be-
fore the house committee on judiciary

ton. The delegation was composed Of:

DR.. Hugh Johnston Of Baltimore. Dr..
Kerr 3. Upper of Philadelphia, Dr.
Joseph q. Smith of Baltimore, DR.. By
ron L. Sunderland OF Washington and
Or. Sylvester F. Scoyen Of Ohio Yves
leyan university.
They argued earnestly for the adop-
ton of the resolution. DR.. ScOvell
urged that morality was the supreme
law, and DIR. Smith that polygamy
threatened American womanhood. He
said that history would show that just
in proportion as a nation was polyga-
nous in that proportion woman was
sunk in degradation.
DR.. ScoveIl said that ne pedestal had
been erected in the Edmunds law, the
plinth in the exclusion Of a Mormon
representative at the doors Of the ma
tional legislature and We were now
ready TO plant the perfect figure on the
summit of the column to defend the
national capital and the great west
from further pollution and shame.

SPEECHES AT coALvILLE.
Two Former Republicans Advocate
Democratic Principles.
(Speclal Correspondence.

Coalville, March 27-The Democratic
rally held here in the opera house last
night at which the Hon. F. B. Stephens
of Salt Lake City and Hon. ]. d. Flenner
count of the very Indictment weather. in
addition to the smallpox scare, not very
largely attended, but the 10 persons who
were present comprised the thinking por-
ton OF the community, and by their DEM
onstrations Of approval OF what was said,
made the meeting an enthusiastic one.
Mr.. STEPHENS said he had been a Re
publican till 1896, when his party COM
pletely ignored and turned down the prin-
cipleS which he most -eVered. He had
been a Republican of the Lincoln and
Blaine type, but when his party departed
from the time-honored principles of those
loyal and true men, he also was COM
PEELED to sever his connection Herewith,
and finding the principles dear to his
heart in the Democratic party, he cast
his lot with it and is with il to stay. He
discussed the relative merits of the two
state platforms, showing in the Demo-
cratic declaration of principles, as has
! been the policy of every convention in
either party prior to the recent Repub-
lican convention, at which no declaration
had been made at all, but merely prom
Use to stay by those who would vote their
ticket. he then very ably discussed the
policies of Imperialism trusts, Porto
Rican tariff, etc, and closed with an ear
nest eulogy of the Democratic candidate
for congress, the Hon. W. II. King, and
assured the people that a vote for him
was equivalent to vote for the Hon. w.
J. Bryan and good government. He en-
phasized the fact that the nomination of
Lincoln and the birth of Bryan occurred
in the same year, which was a coinci-
dence but none the less a fact that the
work of the two was continuous. That is.
Bryan was born TO take up the work
where it was laid down by the martyred
president. (Applause.)
The speech listed about an hour and
was frequently applauded by the enthusi-
astic audience.
Hon. ]. D. Flenner followed in d speech
of about the same length, pursuing very
much the same line OF argument, but in
/ his characteristic witty and humorous
style. took the audience completely by
! storm, and while delivering sledge-ham-
mer blows at the mistakes of the party
/ liz power he kept his auditors in a con-
slant roar of laughter. He also had been
a Republican of the Lincoln school, and
was today with those Of the Blaine and
= Lincoln type, both of whom were bimetaI-
lists. lie was today silver Republican,
( which. by the way he said, will require a
! powerful microscope to distinguish from
a Democrat, and for that reason he is
here advocating the election Of the Hon.
/ w. II. King. than whom no better or

MEETING OF THE CABINET
Philippine Question and Situation in
Kentucky Discussed.

Washington. March 27.-At the cabi-
net meeting today Secretary Root pre-
scented a proposition which had been
submitted by General Otis looking 70
the establishment Of four geographical
divisions of the Philippine archipelago
each TO be under the Immediate super
vision OF military governor. ms pan
il was thought would relieve Governor
Otis of much Of the routine work and
at the same time result in better and
more satisfactory administration Of the
affairs of the several divisions.
The proposition met with general ap-
prevail and General Otis VIII Dc so in
formed. The details of the plan will
be worked out IS soon as possl bic.
The cabinet also discussed the situa-
ton in Kentucky. Senator Deboe and
Representative Pugh saw the presi-
dent and several members or the cabl-
net today. 1t is learned that no fed
eral Interference has been requested,
nor is any desired but it has been inti-
mated that the moral support OF the
administration would be very helpfuI
as would an expression Of sympathy.
The delegations that have been here
50 far as can be learned have asked
nothing more than that. 1t can be
stated on high authority that however
much the president may sympathize
with the Republicans in Kentucky he
realizes that the federal government
cannot take any part in the contro-
versy. The questions at issue are be-
fore the courts and 50 far as the gov
eminent is concerned, il is positively
asserted. the courts will be allowed to
pass upon them without the least in
reference or an expression OF interest
by the federal authorities.

the Effect Of His Retention.
Especial to The Herald

Provo, March 21-Considerable ex-
'dtement was caused here this
afternoon when it was an
nounced that Postmaster j. c.. Graham
was removed from the. postOffice. Post
ofnce Inspector Waters notified Mr..
Graham of his removal today. and
everything belonging to the office was
turned over, to Reed Smoot, one OF
Graham's bondsTnen. Smoot will have
charge of the office until Graham's sue
cessor is appointed. The present clerks.
Two of Graham's children. will be re-
tanned in the Office temporarily MIR.
Graham does not take kindly to the
removal, inasmuch as he was notified
not long ago that nothing would ba
done in the matter until after his trial
IN court He will now resume his Gut1ss
as managing editor of the Enquirer.
Many Republicans here think the ac-
ton against Graham will prove disas-
trous to the Republicans at the special
election. No one can even guess who
will be Graham's successor.

ADMINISTRATIONS FLOP.
Mckinley Again Changed His Mind
Before Breakfast.

Before Breakfast.
Especial to The HeraId)
Washington, March 27.-President
Mckinley has again changed his mind
before breakfast, and the result is the
summary removal of Editor Postmaster
Graham of Provo. The Republicans in
congress were well agreed that Graham
should hold his office, at least until
after the Utah election. But the man
ayers became alarmed at the effect
which his retention was having in
other states, and therefore he was at
once removed. No charges have been
filed against him, and his decapitation
is wholly due to the developments Incl
dent to the hearing before the house
committee on postoffices and postroads.
This is another one of the sudden and
lnexpllcable changes of policy on the
part of the administration 1t was con-
tended before the house committee by
Postmaster General Smith that it was
not proper to take action in Graham's
case because it would prejudice the
case in advance of trial, but notwith-
standing this he has now been re-
moved without a hearing and without
even an attempt at a direct investiga-
ton.
