Salt Lake City, Utah, Dec. 2.-In an
interview yesterday with the Associat-
ed Press, President Joseph Smith of
the Mormon church defined thepresent
position OF the church with respect to
polygamy, also the ecclesiastical posi
ton Of Apostle Reed Smoot, whose
candidacy for the United States senate
has resulted in an active campaign
against him by the ministerial alliance.
Smith says, The church does not per-
form or sanction or authorize marriage
in any form that is contrary to the
laws Of the land" According to Smith
it was asCertainCd by the census in
1890 when President Woodruff issued
his manifesto against further pOlyga-
NOUS marriages, there were 2.451 poly
gamOus families belonging to the
church in the United States In May,
1892, the original number in 1890 had
been reduced to S97, the great majority
of whom were of advanced age, and
many have since departed this life 1t
is evident" says Smith, that with no
additions to this total, but rapid ana
continual decrease, the number or
pOlygamOus families will soon he de-
duCed to zero"
Smith sa, Smoot gives his services
to church Tor nothing He says
Shoots position lin the church need
not interfere in any way with his SER

elected"

opening of the new mint at Denver
will provide a natural place of deposit
for the gold bullion produced in the
central west, the mint at San Fran
cisco will receive the production and
imports of the Pacific coast and the
mint at Philadelphia will receive the
imports at New York. The recipts of
gold at New Orleans do not Justify
the continuance of coinage operations
there. In view of these facts, the
director of the mint recommends that
after June 80, 1908, the New Orleans
mint be reduced to an assay office
The stock Of subsidiary silver in the
country is now limited by law to $780,
100000, and that aggregate has teen
reached. The amount in the treasury
on the list day of October, 1902, was
$9,OS2,371.2S. There is pressing need
for action by congress, and it is
recommended that the limit upon the
stock Of SUBSIDIARY silver coin be en-
tirely removed; that the requirement
that $1,500,000 of silver dollars be
coined monthly be repealed, and that
the entire stock of silver bullion now
in the treasury be converted into
subsidiary coin.

Fiscal Year the Largest in History
of Treasury Experimentation
mends Mint at New Orleans be
Turned Into An Assay Office.


report Secretary Shaw of the treasury
says the revenues of the government
from all sourcs for the fiscal year
ended June 30, 1902, were $684326,-
28O.42. The expenditures for the
same period were $593O3S, 9049O,
showing a surplus Of $91, 2S7375.57.
! In addition 10 the revenues collected
during the year the cash in the
treasury was increased by the follow
ing sums: From national-bank fund, in
excess OF bank notes redeemed, $12-
GJO,lGO; from issue of per cent
bonds, for Spanish war expenditures
$2O and from the issue OF 4 per cent
bonds in liquidation OF interest &C
crucd on refunding certificates, $l,0l0,
making a total of $l2,G5l, 1870.
Compared with the fiscal year 1901,
the receipts for 1902 decreased $l4,-
9JO,250.45.
The treasurer Of the United States
in his annual report says the secre-
tay, distinguishes, as the striking
features of the condition of the
treasury, the magnitude Of the avail
able cash balance and Inc unpreCedent-
ed holdings of gold. Among the
notable events of the last fiscal year
are the diminution of revenues due to
the repeal of war taXs, the reduction
of expenditures, and the changes In
the composition of the paper currency
United States notes and treasury
notes were redeemed in gold TO the
amount of $l7,482,59O of the former
and $l,274,59O of the latter, without
any impairment Of the gold reserve Of
$780, 100000.
The increase OF the available cash
balance was $33780,o DOB, bringing the
total on June 80 to $212,18736l. BY
october / 1902, the total increased to
1921 ,253,5o4 but was reduced by
November / to $206,421 $3.50. In
elusive Of the gold reserve, the avail
able balance on June 80 was 1892, 1877
&G1, the largest in the history Of the
department, for while these figures
are exceeded by the records of 1879,
the latter included in the account the
funds held temporarily against called
bonds. After allowing for subsidiary
silver silver bullion, and minor coin
not available for large payments, there
remained in the treasury vaults
November a fund of over $50. OOO, 900,
which is slightly in excess of what is
deemed a fair working balance.
In the total amounts of bonds held
for national lanks as security for cir
culatng notes. the most significant
changes were a reduction Of nearly
Sl4.ouo.0OO between October and June.
and an increase of nearly $4,000 600
