SCHLEY'S REQUEST REFUSED
NAVY DEP4 WILL NOT ACT
 HOUISON MATTER.
Advises That the Question of the Lat- ter's Competency to Serve on the Court of inquiry be Left to the Court Itself-Declares Statement Attributed to Howison Wholly Unsubstantiated -Schley Criticized for Presenting H.

Washington Aug. 21.-The navy de- partment this afternoon gave out the correspondence with Admiral Schley relative to opinions said to have been expressed by Admiral HoWison, mem Der of the court of inquiry. The clos- ing letter of the acting secretary or the navy states that it would be irregular for the navy department to hear ana determine questions affecting the com potency of members of the court and advises Admiral Schley that the ques- ton of Admiral Howisons competency be left to the court of inquiry itself The correspondence follows:
 Washington, D. C., Aug. l9, l9ol' The Secretary of the Navy:
 Sir-I have the honor to enclose here with a newspaper clipping in which Rear Admiral Howison (Who has been selected to fill the vacancy caused py the relief of Rear Admiral l.. Q. Kim berley from the court of inquiry) is rep resented to have expressed certain opinions
 If this statement, taken from the Bos- ton Record, be true it would, in the Judgment of my counsel, disqual1fy hln 
 from serving on this inquiry
 I respectfully request that copy or this letter, with this enclosure, be sup- mitted to Rear Admiral Howison for his consideration, and I would further re- quest that I may be favored with a copy of his answer.
 I have entertained high personal re- gard for Rear Admiral Howson through long professional service, so that I feel sure that if the statements expressed in the enclosure are true Rear Admiral Howison would not be willing to serve as a judge under such circumstances.
 Yours truly,
 w. S. Schley, Rear Admiral, U S. N.

They then rest and chat between dances, refreshing themselves for the next number on the programme. With out programmes they are continually planning dances ahead. exacting prom ises and obtaining verbal refusals. or engaging in disputes which pro- gramnes preclude by a plain showing of black and white.
 The second annual ball given by the Phoenix Library association Friday evening at 0'Nefll hall, was among the most enjoyable dances of the season and one which will live in recollection. The floor was in splendid condition, the hall contained just the right number of dancers and all in all the elite were well entertained in a semi-formal func- ton. To the tune of the rain many re- nained home, who otherwise would have attended. but the seventy-five couples who braved the clements were amply repaid by the lively strains from probably the best organized orchestra that has been brought together this season. The dance was given for the benef fit of the Phoenix library and from a financial standpoint also, it was sue cessful. ngore than 200 tickets having been sold. There Is some talk of re- beating the dance this season for the

 Mrs. T. Connell gave "Salimagundi'' party at her home, No. 520 West Jeffer- son street. last Thursday. Nobody knew just exactly the character of a "Salimagundi' affair and they are not so sure yet that they understand completely. Probably Mrs. Cornell in- tended that there should be some guessing, but at any rate the guests enjoyed charming afternoon party. She was assisted by Miss Williscraft and her daughter, Miss Caroline Ather- ton Cornell, who has just returned from an extended visit in Kansas.
 Tables were tastely arranged. one of them for cards. another containing kodak pictures. and the third was a lunch table.
 The guests were Mesdames H. C.. Mann, Peoria, Ariz.: H. r. Stevens, Chanute, Kas.; w. J. Slemm'er. Phfa- delphia G. F. Hargus, Los Angeles; James H. McClintoek, Simms Ely, Ben Bear, Wm. Rhodes, Leslie Larimer c. V. Cowan, J. w. Doris, Roy Stevens, O. J. Thibodo and C.. Sterling.

 In big social event recently few persons have failed to respond to in- vitatlons, where responses were plainly required, or at least would have been gratifying to those issuing the Invita- tions. When hundreds of invitations are issued letters of accep ptance or re- grets show the receivers that the honor they have attempted to bestow is ap- preciated. It is improbable that any so honored have Intentionally r fused to return letters. It Is more likely that it slipped their memory until too late or that they mailed them to the wrong address. Either mistake may be rene died by exercising care.
 The confusion ensuing. from fail ure to respond to invitations reminds one of the confusion which will follow in ball rooms, If Phoenix, like few other places in this country, discards programmes in all dances. Of course, in large receptions. where dancing and other amusements follow. it would be out of the question to think of using programmes. But at all distinct balls and dances, a programme is not only a luxury but according to the views of

NEW INDIAN POLICY.
Senator Quarles Interviewed Con.
corning Our Indian Wards.
ABLE.BODIED BUCKS MUST WORK.
The Tribal Relations to BE Broken Up
and the Red Man Must DO Something
for . Living Besides Drawing
Government Rati0ns.

jamestown, N. D., Oct. Ex-senator
Quarles, of Wisconsin, q member of
the Indian commission, in an inter-
view has announced that a new
policy would be adopted in regard to
the Indian. He said: "We have been
making an inspection Of the various
Indian agencies and have studied the
Indian question in all its phases for
the information Of congress. We Wis
tied the Red Lake reservation in
northern Minnesota and found it con-
tains $4,000 acres Of good farm land
that is not used. This land, as well
as that of other reservations, should
be opened to settlement. The tribal
relations keeps the Indian in state
Of dependency more than anything
else and teaches him habits Of idle
ness. We purpose to break it up and
make the Indian who is able-bodied
earn his living as well as anyone else.
"Congress is going to change the
old policy and place the Indians on
a different basis. We will take care
of the aged, the weak and the infrm,
but the able-bodied Indian must do
something for a living besides draw
ing his government rations."

and Buildings Damaged.

Omaha, Neb., Oct. 11.-A severe
wind and rainstorm which struck
western Iowa at three o'clock yes
terday afternoon did much damage
to telegraph wires and washed out
railroad tracks. The storm was
heaviest along the line of the Burling-
ton road from Hamburg to Red Oak,
Ia, where the wires are down and
the tracks Of that road are washed
out in several places. The only in
formation to be had last night came
from the railroads and was very
meager. The report received at the
Burlington Office in this city said
cracks between Red Oak and Ham
burg all gone and wires all down"
A dispatch from Shenandoah, Ia,
said that the worst wind and rain
storm that ever visited that place
struck there at 4:3O yesterday after
noon. A dozen business houses were
more or less damaged and several
small buildings were blown to pieces.
The Burlington roundhouse was
wrecked and the roof blown from the
electric light power house, leaving the
city in darkness. No one was serious
Iy injured. The water transformed
several streets into small rivers, and
a large poultry packing-house was
blown to pieces and washed away. In
the country the roads have been
made impossible and considerable
stock was drowned. Railroad traffic
is at O standstill.

LORENZO SNOW DEAD
Fifth President Of Mormon Church
Dies Rather Unexpectedly.
he Was A BROAD. MINDED CHRISTIAN


Salt Lake City, Oct. 1i.-Lorenzo
Snow, fifth president of the Church
of Jesus Christ Of Latter Day Saints,
better known as the Mormon church,
died rather Unexpectedly at his pri-
vate residence, the historic Bee Hive
house, at 1896 o'clock yesterday aft
ernoon, after an illness that had been
serious only since Wednesday. The
immediate cause of his death was
hypostatic congestion, superinduced
by aggravated bronchitis. Several
weeks ago President Snow contracted
q cold. lie was ut his desk, however,
attending to business as late as Tues
day. Wednesday morning he was
seized with fit of vomiting which
continued at intervals throughout the
day. Wednesday night his physicians
were called and remained in con-
slant attendance until death came.
President Shows death caused q
shock to the entire community and
is deeply deplored by all classes, for
he was regarded as broad-minded,
generous-hearted Christian gentle
man, who desired the upbuilding of
Utah as well as the progress of the
Mormon church.
President Shows death dissolves
the first presidency, of which he was
the head, his two counsellors being
Joseph Smith and Rudger Cla.wson.
Until his successor is chosen, which
may not be until the annual confer
ence next April, the leadership of the
church will devolve upon the council
of 10 apostles, of which body Mr..
Smith is the recognized head. I'm
less death should come to him in the
meantime Mr.. Smith will be the next
president of the church. The church
leaders will probably meet to-day
and make arrangements for the fu-
neral. President Snow leaves large
family, the members being scattered
throughout the world. All have been
notified of his demise.
Lorenzo Snow was born in Mantua,
Portage county, O., April 3, 1874, re-
ceiving classical education at Ober-
lin college. lie became q convert
to Mormonsm in 1886 and immedi-
ately began PROSECUTING. Since then
he has been one of the most active
and prominent members OF the church
organization. He has been on nu-
merous foreign missions, the most
important being that to Great Brit
ain in 1910, where he became pres-
dent OF the London conference. In
1913, at the head of train of 100
wagons, he made the overland trip
from Illinois to the present site OF
Salt Lake City and in all the work
of founding and building up OF this
city he was n leader. For 30 years,
commencing with 1852, he was a mem
Der of the territorial legislature,
chiefly as presiding officer of the up
per house. In 1855, with 50 families
he founded and named Brigham City,
in northern Utah, which was his home
for many years. In 1856, during the
agitation against the practice of
polygamy. he was convicted of I'M
lawful. cohnhitntion. and sentenced to
three years, terms Of six months
each, but later was released on n
writ of habcas corpus. On September
70, 1898, he was chosen president OF
| the church in succession to MILFORD
Woodruff.
