SAY sMooT WILL RESIGN.
Political Enemies Say Church vii
Compel Him to Do So.

Washington, Dec. 29.-The opponents
Of Senator Reed Smoot of Utah believe
he will resign his seat in the senate
rather than undergo the rigid fnvesti-
CATION expected. This belief is based
on advices from Salt Lake City. N.Y.
Shoots action would result from pres
sure brought to bear by church lead
ers. When the committee on privileges
submitted the charges against Mr..
Smoot he intimated that a reply IN
writing would be filed at the end of the
week Instead he went to Salt Lake
City. where he is now.
1t is understood his reply is being
prepared there and will be carefully
revised by the church authorities. The
belief that Mr.. Smoot will resign IS
upheld by the theory that the powers
behind him are convinced that the
present fight is directed against the
Mormon church as whole, ratha ar
than simply against polygamy, and
that they do not care to have the con-
troll of secular matters by the eccle-
siastical authorities made bare.
The reasoning of Mr.. Shoots OPP
ponents in the senate is that his reply
as revised by the church authorities,
will not disavow belief in polygamy
and will defend the Mormon religion.

q. n Princes Grain Letter.

Chicago, Dec. 29.-Wheat-The mar
ket today was somewhat irregular and
fiuctuated to great extent by North
western markets. There was consider
able strength early on the array of
bullish news, which came in from all
quarters. Depressing factors were the
heavy Kansas City receipts and rather
Indifferent cables. Heavy sales of flour
in the northwest to Japan, light coun-
try movement and the fact that millers
were buying May futures at Minneap-
oils, caused strength there and the
crowd who had been selling in this
market changed to the buying side.
There was also good demand from
Some OF the large commission houses.
On the advance, however. there was
lot of wheat for sale and the market
gradually weakened. There was also
a decline at Minneapolis.
Corn-Thc market followed wheat In
Its actions. but was inclined to dullness
and had no feature of special import
ance aside from the selling by COM
mission houses on the small advance.
There was narrow range and on the
whole quiet market The country
movement was light Cables show
very little change and cash demand is
slow. The prospect of war between

ACCUSED THE ATTORNEY.
Des Moines Lawyer Charged 8,
Prisoner With Bad Practice.

Newton, Dec. 29.-An interesting cpl
sode took place in the district court
which convened yesterday afternoon
when the case of the state vs.. Kinsell
came up for hearing. 1t Will be remem-
bered that some months ago Kinsell
and Morrison, of Colfax. had an al
tercation in which Morrison was badly
hurt. it being alleged that Kinsel
struck him with an axe.
Tom Miner, of Belle PLANE. is de-
Tending Kinsell and Cragan and Trip
are prosecuting. Walter McHenry, OF
Des Moines, also appeared for the state
and the defendant objected to his app
pearance. setting up the claim that Nc
Henry told him he would get ems
ployed by the state and would leave
loopholes in the case so that Kinsell
might escape.
OF course McHenry denied this Bit
terly but inasmuch as McHenry had
been employed to represent Kinsell at
the preliminary hearing, Cat which he
did not appear, however)' the court
sustained the objection to McHenry's
appearance.
In making the ruling the court said
that he felt sure there had been some
misunderstanding about the matter as
he did not regard it as probable that
McHenry had said such things as had
been attributed to him by Kinsell.
McHenry VOWS that he will return
here and undertake to have kinsell in
dicted for perjury.

HUNTERS SHOT CATTLE.
Farmers Near Dubuque Lose Heavily
Thru Depredations.

special TO 1meS-RepuDiican.
Dubuque, Dec. 2a-Farmers living in
the vicinity of New Melleray monastry
are up in arms over the depredations
committed not long ago by party of
hunters. Not only did the hunters
shoot at the farmers cattle. but they
burned up wood piles containing many
cords of wood.
So far as known no steps have been
taken to apprehend the culprits.
The monks of New Mellary suffered
at the hands OF the hunters. Not sat
isfed with trespassing on the grounds
the culprts shot valuable steer. The
monks did not learn of the accident
until they discovered the animal roam
ing thru field suffering from a gun
shot wound The steer was taken in
hand by veterinarian and recovered
A farmer living In the vicinity did
not fare as well. for one of his very
best horses was shot, receiving
wound from the effects of which 1t
died. The horse was we-th 5000.
After committing these deeds OF van
dalism. the hunters went back to the
monas,ry and set fire to wood pile.
The flames were not discovered until
the entire pile was consumed.
Naturally the farmers and monks are
indignant that such vandalism should
be permitted under their noses. An
effort will b., made to get the names
of the hunters.
1t is also planned to form an organ
ization among the farmers Of the VI
entity to prevent hunters from tres
,,acc;pp on their urOperty.

Minneapolis, Dec. o9.-Within tn.
past eight business days Mlnneapoii:
mills have booked almost 100000 bar
rels of flour for export 20 Japan Yes
tfrday there was a further inquiry re-
ported and 1t is not unlikely that more
business will result.
For some time Japan has been a
heavy buyer Of American flour. Large
orders We're thrown TO mills on the
Pacific coast. SO heavy was this de-
mand that for the first ten months OF
the year American -four exports 10
Japan increased almost 800 per GENT
over previous high figures. When the
Pacific coast mills. we'll sold ahead
could no longer enter orders satisfac-
torily, inquiry spread eastward and
the Minneapolis mills felt the effect,
which was first noted IN the Thanks
giving day number of the Journal. Tha
japan -four business has increased
phenomenally. For ten months to Nov.
l, 1901, 299,495 barrels were exported.
in the same period of 1902, S60.9l5 BAR
refs. and this year to Nov. !. 972.336
barrels. Since then an enormous in
crease has been noted and the volume
of new business for Japan is now run
ming heavier than ever.
While flour exports 10 the Philip
pines fell off. and Heug Kong with
1.151,692 barrels In 1901, 1.o61,046 In
1902 and 1,047.931 for this year. barely
held up, the Japanese business doubled
ard trebled. There is no longer room
for doubt that the people of Japan ex
pect their country to fight Russia. and
the merchants of Kobe and Nagasaki
are stocking UP in anticipation of a rise
in the price of breadstuffs the world
over, likely to follow the beginning of
hostili.ies. especially If England should
become involved.
The millers are reticent about dis
cussing the Japan business. but admit
that the orders are still coming. and
one large company is known to have
alone booked close to $4,000 barrels
within a day or two.
The Japanese government has bought
no flour direct but it is thought some
big direct orders would follow dec
laration OF war.
On change the probable effect Of
an eastern war is live topic. That i:
would mean dollar wheat here is the
general opinion. Yesterday morning
May wheat jumped to new high point
at s37s cents. and showed activity and
a degree OF interest remarkable for the
holiday season. usually a period of

To the grain trade this Japan flour
demand is OF great interest, as 1t has
