Drawing more water than any vessel
that has been in Honolulu before, the
giant passenger liner Korea slid out of
the dock at the Naval Station yester-
day, was hauled around slowly, and
then pointed her nose out of the chan
mel. 1t was good start for what Cap

the steamer say that the popular skip

the records between the Islands and
the Orient.
With Pilot McCauley and Captain
Seabury on the bridge, far above the
water, and a thousand people in sight
on the decks of the vessel, the Queen
OF the Pacific" presented splendid
sight, thick black smoke emerging
from each funnel, as she slid out of the
dock. Many naval officers We're gather
ed on the quarterback of the cruiser
New York, among them being Com
mandant Whiting of the Naval Station,
Captain Burwell of the Oregon, Cap
tain Mackenzie of the New York, and
a host of junior officers and ladies.
They were there to pay their respects
to Captain Seabury, commander of the
finest vessel under the American flag
on the Pacific Ocean. The New York's
band was also stationed on the quar-
! ter-deck. AS the Korea backed away
! from the rharf her steel sides received
a broadside from the comets of the
band, and a peculiar musical echo
came back to those on the cruiser.
| AS the nose of the Korea was pointed
out of the channel Captain Seabury
! clambered up to the compass bridge,
high above the rest of the vessel He
joyfully waved his hat and telegraphed
to the engine room to ''let her CO." At
the same time the colors of the cruiser
were dipped in honor of the Korea, and
those of the Korea answered back as
same to you"
The Korea went out of the channel at
considerable speed, and when passing
the battleship Oregon both vessels
again dipped their colors, and the
Korea blew her siren. A few minutes
later the Korea was but speck upon
the horizon, and those on the wharf
commenced to talk of incidents Of her
departure.

not touch the mud anywhere, but the

ceived from Senator Henry Cabot Lodge Of
Massachusetts,, a letter enclosing an invita-
tion to be present on Great night" next

for this. She urged the women to go into

SHIP HAS A STORMY TRIP
St. Louis Arrives in New York Harbor
After Very Rough Passage.
ONE SEAMAN is WASHED OVERHEARD
Vessel IL stopped, but the Sea is So
Rough that 1T IL Impossible
to Save the UnfOrtu-

NEW YORK, Dec. 1.-The American line
steamer st. Louis arrived in port today
from Southampton and Hamburg, late, after
a very stormy passage.
st. Louis left the channel with mod
crate breezea. which later became a whole
gale, with violent squalls and q very high,
dangerous sea. The gales continued In
violence until Friday, when they fell.
Among the passengers were ]. Allison
Bowen. deputy United States consul general
to Paris. and General Ben l. Viljoen, for
merly Of the South African republic.
As st. Louis came into its dock It
showed the effects OF the rough weather.
Its tunnels we're salt incrusted, where the
spray had dashed against them. and one
of the forward starboard boats hung a
wreck on the davits; others on the same
side we're marked by dents where the heavy
seas had struck them.
During the height of the storm, Wednes-
day, one seaman, Charles Johnson. a Nor
wegian, was washed overheard and lost.
During almost all OF the trip the captain
was obliged to remain on the bridge and
most Of that time the officers were dashed
to keep the seas from carrying them away.
On the 2sth st. Louis ran into a violent
hailstorm and the hail stones were 80 large

der reduced speed, with the passengers be-
hind storm doors and the sea continually
breaking over the ship and sweeping the
decks.
On Wednesday about 4 o'clock the storm
was so fierce and the sea, which was high,
was breaking over the bow with such force
1t was feared that some Of the forward
boats on the starboard side would be car
ried away Orders were given to have the
boats made more secure and a detail Of
seven men were sent up to fasten them.
The seamen who undertook the work crept
along the side of the deck to the forward
boat. They had been working but a few
minutes to make 1t secure when a heavy
sea came curling over the rail. There was
a shout OF warning and all of the men held
fast except Johnson, who was dashed over
board.
TIL boat was stopped. but so wild was
the sea that no aid could be given TO the
man and the steamer resumed it's journey.
Yesterday afternoon when st. Louis was
off the Nantucket lightship a fire was dis
covered onward in the main deck. 1t was
caused by a defective light and was soon
extIngulshed.

MORMONS NOT POLYCAMOUS
President of Church Says Dual Marriages
Are Not Recognized.
MULTE-wNED MEN OLD AND MUST SOON DIE
Practice Ends Law is Made, but
Previous weddings Not All AM
nuIIed, as Husbands Prefer
to Care for Families.

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, Dec. lin an
interview today Joseph Smith, president of
the Mormons, defined the present position
of the church with respect to polygamy and
the ecclesiastical position of Apostle Reed
Smoot.
THE church does not desire to enter con-
troversies over the subject" said Mr..
Smith, but it is anxious that it's own peo-
pie, as we'll as the people Of the country,
should understand its position"
No Plural Marriages AlIOwe
Does the Mormon church m or
permit plural marriages." asked the re-
porter.
Certainly not" he replied. The church
does not permit, sanction or authorize
marriage in any form that is contrary to
the laws of the land. The assertion that
prominent Mormons practice polygamy is
evidently made to mislead the public. Po-
lygamy under the law Is the marrying of
a husband or wife while the legal husband
or wife is living and undivorced. There
is no such offense committed by sanction
of the Mormon church, but when the pro-
hibition of polygamy was proclaimed by
the president of the Mormon church there
were many persons who had contracted
plural marriages, and that relation has
been continued in many instances. because
the men in that position determined not to
abandon their families.
"This is enormously construed as prac-
ticing polygamy, and creates the impress
sion that ~polygamous marriages are still
permitted in and by the church.
at was ascertained by a careful census
Of 1890 that there we're 2.451 such fami-
lies in the United States. In May. 1892
tina number had been reduced So per cent
leaving them only S97, the great majority
of whom were of advanced age, and many
have since died. 1t is thus evident thai
the number OF polygamous families will
soon be reduced to zero"
smoot is Good Citizen.
Mr.. Smith was asked to define the pc
sition OF Mr.. Smoot in the church, his pc
sition as an apostle having been compared
to that OF a cardinal or archbishop in Other
churches.
THE two positions are not parallel" re
piled he. IAN apostle, or seventy, or elder
or bishop in the Latter Day Saints II
usually engaged in some secular vocation
He is ordained to the priesthood so tina
he may act when required. He gives hi
services gratuitously to the church.
Reed Smoot is a banker, the manage
Of the largest manufacturing institution II
this state and is interested largely in min
ing operations and other temporal pur
suits. He is recognized as a capable an
enterprising citizen. and his position in tn
church need not interfere with his serv
ices TO the state or the nation in any pc
utical ONCE. 1t is not true that he wa
put forward by the church as a candidat
for public ONCE.
Mormon church officials have served 1
congress for years and no objection Ia
been offered on that account. Every MOI
mon otheial has been one ordained to tn
