Of Holding Up Legislation
Which Would Have Placed Him on
the Retired List.

Washington, Feb. 5.-Capt. Rich
mond p. Hobson, corps of naval con-
structors. insists on the acceptance of
his resignation from the navy. Secre-
tary Moody received a telegram from
him, today, to that effect. He thanked

in reply to one from the secretary of

station, because the navy did not wish
to lose the services of an officer whose

57TH CONGRESS.
Influence of Mormon Church
Over Utah Politics
Brought Our in Statehood Bill Debate
in the House.
Antitrust Bill Opens in the House, Be.
fore Large Audience.

Washington, Feb. 5.-Discussion of
the statehood bill in the Senate, today,
turned on the question of polygamy.
A number of senators who heretofore
have taken no part in the debate par
ticiDated in the discussion.
Gallinger of New Hampshire, reply
ing to some statements made by Nc
Conlas of Maryland, said that he was ir.
favor of an amendment to the state
hood bill covering the question OF
polygamy as strongly and firmly as
possible. The influence of the Nor
mon church over politics occupied a
large share of the debate.
Hale characterized the debate as in
teresting, valuable and startling, be-
cause it had disclosed a powerful re-
ligious organization "exertlng itself as
a dominant. potential force" over the
mind and action of its followers, which
should be taken into account in future
legislation.
Kean, who had intended continuing
his remarks begun, yesterday, in oppo-
sition to the bill, yielded the floor so
often during the day that before he
resumed the Senate went into executive
session and adjourned a few minutes
afterwards.

small and ragged showing of net gains
for the day. The skillful leadership OF
the market may safely be inferred from
this showing and also professional man

ldent however, that operators in stocks
with large resources and with an extern

Ventured upon a stock market campaign
for an advance in prices. There is no
evidence Yet that the leadership thus un-
dertaken has been effective.

The Paciiics, Grangers and Southwest

advance was attributed to a, belief that
the agreement arrived at between the
Rock Island and the Union Pacific au-
thorites would be a benefit to the whole
railroad situation in that part of the

FORTY FISHERM EN-
Thought to Have Perished in
Lake Michigan.
Sudden Storm Broke Ice Away, Blow
ing Them Far from Land.
No Trace of Men or Huts-Two Are
Surely Dead.

Bay City. Mich. Feb. Sit is feared
that 40 fishermen went to their death
in the storm which struck Saginaw
Bay, Tuesday night. The men were
living in shanties built on the ice. The
storm burst without warning. 1t was
accompanied by a binding swirl of
snow and the waves crushed the ice
upon which the fishermen's huts were
standing into a grinding cruncning
mass. Nothing has been seen of the
men or shanties since. 1t is known
that two were drowned and little hope
is expressed for the others.
James l.. Fisk, a fish buyer, who
spent the night in his station, came
to this city. last night and said that
prior to the storm he could see plainly
n dozen shanties and men moving
about them. but in the morning there
was no sign of human life on the bay.
Two men We're in II shanty not far
from his place We're lost during the
right. cakes of ice having smashed
their shanties TO pieces. He says the
other fishermen could hardly have es-
capped. as they were still further out
and near the scene of the first break
ing up of the ice.

LESS WARLIKE.
National Guardsmen Being
Withdrawn from Waterbury.
Cars Run All Day Thursday Without
Bother from Strikers.
Committee Laboring With Road and
Men to Settle Strike.

Waterbury, Conn, Feb. 5.-Water-
pect, this evening, than at any time
since the militia took a hand in the
control of affair. The late afternoon
was marked by the beginning of the
withdrawal of the troops the 1st Reg
iment of the Connecticut National
Guard, consisting of nine companies
commanded by Col. Schulze, leaving
for Hartford at sos. The departure
of these militiamen, together with the
fact that committee was at work
trying to bring about settlement in
creased, in the minds of many citizens,
the hopeful feeling which had prevailed
since last nights peaceful conditions
seemed to indicate that the unruly
spirits of the mob had been subdued.
Following out the order of Gov.
Chamberlain for the removal of the
soldiers from the city, preparations
were made in the afternoon for the de-
parture of the 1st Regiment. Shortly
before > o'clock, the soldiers started
from the armory on the march to the
railroad station, where a special train
of twelve cars was in waiting. There
was no demonstration, hostile or
otherwise.
The committee consisting of Mayor
kilduf, City Clerk Ryan and John II.
Dillon, Il New Haven citizen which
has beer laboring since last night to
arrange basis for a settlement of the
strike, invited Col. Burpee, counsel for
the Connecticut Railway and Lighting
Co. to q conference, this evening with
the executive committee of the Trolley
Mems Union. The outcome of this
meeting was awaited with a large de-
gree of anxiety by citizens generally.
During the day the cars of the COM
pany ran on all the lines according to
the regular schedule, and without in
reference from mob sympathiZers. The
only incident which marred the peace
occurred, early in the morning, when
missiles were thrown from q passing
train at soldiers patrolling Bank street.
After session lasting an hour and
a half. the conferees who met, tonight,
III an attempt to arrange settlement
of the trolley strike, parted at $50 with
settlement of the difficulty as far away
apparently as ever. The representa-
tiVeS of the strikers and of the Con-
necticut Railway and Lighting co.
found themselves entirely at variance
and when the conference ended, the ex-
ecutive committee of the Trolley Mems
Union announced they would recon-
mend in their report to the union, to-
morrow. that the strike be continued.

LEGISLATION STOPPED
Which Would Have Put Him on Re-
tired List, So He Says.

New York, Feb. 5.--Captain Richmond
P. Hobson. of the United States navy,
who was in the city, today. said that
he had information from reliable source
that legislation which would have en-
abled hlm to go ON the retired list had
been held up in the House naval affairs
committee at Washington. by Congress-
sixth Alabama district, in which Capt
Hobson lives.
Capt. Hobson said that construction
work in the Philippines where the refiec-
ton of the suns rays on the water is in
tense, impaired his eyesight. He was in
valided home from a Manila hospital af-
ter being forced by the weakness of his
eyes to civil work.
The construction work required of me, y
said Cart Hobson, lis just the kind which
my impaired eyesight has made me unable
to perform. There was nothing for me to
do but retire or resign, for / could not go
on attempting work for which | was
physically disqualified. My application
for retirement was approved by the con-
struction bureau and by the President
and all went well until it reached the
House committee on naval affairs, OF
which Mr.. Bankhead is a member The
opposition on that committee left me no
other course than to resign.

Washington, Feb. 5.-The antitrust
bill debate which opened in the House,
today. did not develop much animation,
although there was a fairly large at
tendance in the gallery. The rule un-
der which the House was to operate,
however, precipitated a lively discus

Of the bill because it did not permit
them to secure a record vote on sub

that they We're willing to accept the

ADDICKS is OUT.
Withdraws from the Famous
Delaware Senatorial Fight.
Close of a Remarkable Political War
Lasting Since 1895.
Gov. cHunn or Sec. Layton May Be
Candidates.

Dover, Del, Feb. 5.-The sudden an
nouncement, this afternoon, that j.
Edward Addicks had withdrawn from
the candidacy for United States sena-
tor which he has urged so persistently
since 1895, created an immense SEN
sation. The belief is general that the
refusal of the United States Senate
TO confirm United States District At
torney VIM. Byrne had the effect of
bringing about Mr.. Addicks' with
drawal. The Union Republican choice
for senator in place of Addicks will
probably be Gov. HUM, or Secretary
of State Layton. State Senator Alice,
the Addicks leader has repeatedly de-
clared that he would not accept the
United States senatorship.
Mr.. Addicks arrived here from Will
mington about 1 o'clock, going di-
rectly to the capitol. He was ushered
into the parlor of the state house.
where all of the 81 Union Republican
members of the Legislature were as
sembed to meet him, together with
Secretary of State Layton and IN
surance Commissioner Marshall. The
assembymen received Mr.. Addicks
with cheers and he appeared deeply
moved by the heartiness of the greet
ing.
Immediately after Mr. Addicks ar
rived. Gov. John Hunn, who is called
the peacemaker in Delaware politics.
entered the parlor. After the door had
been closed those outside heard fire.
quent bursts of applause and the rum
on became general around the Capitol
that Mr.. Addicks was about to with
draw from the most remarkable polit-
ical fight in the history of this country,
a fight which has deadlocked three
sessions of the Legislature and split
the Republican party into factions.
This rumor was confirmed soon after
o'clock, when the caucus adjourned.
