JUDGE SWAYNE MAY
NOT Be IMPEACHED
Republicans and Democrats
Make Opposition to Long
Session of Congress

Washington. d. c., March 23.--Judge
Swayne. of Florida, may not be inn
peached. The managers OF both Houses
are trying to find some way. to prevent
the case from delaying the early ad-
journment Of Congress. Impeachments
cannot be hurried like appropriation
bills, and Judge Swayne and his coun-
sci would undoubtedly insist upon all
his rights, including the fullest delib-
Grafton.
The Republican National Convention
is to meet June q, and this of itself
makes Republicans want to get away
from Washington. but Democrats, too.
want to get home to look after their
fences. II the whole matter could be
put over to the next session, such ac-
tion would undoubtedly be taken. But
the next session only lasts from the
first Monday in December until March
A. with a fortnights Christmas holiday
and the Senate could not afford to take
even one month of that time for an inn
peachment trial.
Speaker Cannon talked with the
House leaders about the matter yester-
day afternoon but without conclusion,
although it was seriously proposed that
the House might adjourn, leaving the
Senate TO complete the trial This
would free the members of the House,
but the Senate, under the Constitution.
would have TO consent before the
House could thus adjourn. The out
come of it all may be that the House
may not impeach Judge Swayne. The
Democrats win insist however. that
Judge Swayne ought to be impeached.

The case of All Kim and Lum Let
the Cinnamon charged with being in
this country illegally, was resumed be-
fore United States Commissioner VIII

trial Of those two Celestials was contin-

All Kim was arraigned last Wednes-

dence was made impossible because the
prisoner changed his dialect. The case
was postponed in order that another

This morning this Interpreter failed
to make his appearance IN time for
Commissioner Mahaffy to take up Kim's
case and it was decided to arraign Lum

Washington, ID. c.. March 2s.-Mr. Reed

sion OF Congress. The Committee on Priv
neges and Elections. which Is holding the
preliminary trial. will not even make a

appointed and authorized to 80 to Utah to
Investigate the whole Mormon question,
with relation TO It's present bearing on the
political, social and moral relations Of
life.
The question has gone beyond Mr..
smoot said member Of the committee
today. 'The revelations already made by
the high officers OF the Mormon Church
have made a necessary to go to the bot
tom Of the whole Mormon question and
md out exactly what the government can
do to eliminate the peril. The question Of
whether or not Senator smoot shall retain
his seat Is now merely incidental"
Although no formal vote has been taker
IN the committee, this seems TO be the
sentiment Of large majority, and they
have made up their minds to carry the
question over TO the next session, and
meantime have a subcommittee invesu-
gate the church and its relations TO the
government.
The Republican members OF the commit
tee believe that this should be done, 80
that the Investigation may be divestcd OF
an political considerations during the
Presidential campaign. The Democratic
members are willing TO agree to this with
out serious objection. II there Is any as
surance that the matter will be thorough.
ly Investigated and finally decided next

who has been most persistent In his oppo.

settled at once. but as he believes that al

jury TO the progress of the Southwest, h
Is willing to wait.
Reports come 10 members Of the commit
tee from citizens Of Utah that the questio
IN an unsettled condition Is an Injury {
the State and that the effect OF the Scnat
hearing has already been unfavorable O
business and political affairs. They sa
that the injury 10 the State falls on al
citizens alike. Mormons and non-Mor
mons that there is a revival OF the ol'
bitterness and suspicion, and that there
an unhealthy rivalry In business affairs
on this account the leading citizens o
the State. while wishing an early settle

for settlement that shall prevent re
currence Of the present unfortunate situa

Whether the present agitation viii taxi

LEGAL POINTS ARISE
Question as to Whether Water Board
Can Lend Money.

There seems to be a question IN the
minds Of several city officials relative to
the legality OF the proposed lean, which
City Council intends TO negotiate with the
Water Board. City Solicitor Robert G..
Harman believes the Water Commission
cannot lend the money because Il odes
not exercise banking powers. lie is also OF
the opinion that a provision Of the new
constitution OF. the State forbids such =
loan. He VIII not say this positively, how-
ever, until the matter has been laid be-
fore him and he has had time to examine
the law more closely.
President Ford, Of the Water Commits,

had as yet not been laid before the City

Claims That
One of the japanese
Vessels Was Struck by
a Shell
That Port Arthur
Harbor Has BeenCIosed
by Japs-Newchwang
Fears Attach

st. Petersburg. March 23.-Another
attack by the aJpanese fleet on Port
Arthur, beginning with operations by
torpedo boats and ending with a bonn
bardment by battleships and cruisers.
took place after midnight Monday. The
dispatches to the Emperor from Vice
roy Alexieff and private Information
show that the Russians sustained no
great damage, having only five soldiers
killed and ten wounded.
Vice-Admiral Makaroff claims that
one OF the Japanese vessels was struck
by a shell.
The Emperor received the first mes
sage regarding the attack late yester-
day afternoon, but nothing was allowed
to reach the public until 10 o'clock last
night.
All Information which has reached
ST. Petersburg shows that the defend
ers OF Port Arthur have taken serious
ly to heart the coup OF the Japanese
torpedo boats at the beginning OF the
war and were now maintaining a sharn
lookout.
Japanese Torpedo Boat Detected.
The Japanese torpedo boats were
twice discovered sneaklng towards the
harbor entrance under cover OF dark
ness but both times they were detected
far out at sea and were driven or bv
the hot fire opened upon them. The
breaking OF day necessarily prevented
further torpedo boat operations. hut
Admiral Togo brought up his battle
ships and cruisers. The division of his
fleet was for the purpose OF making a
cross fire upon the harbor In the hone
Of destroying the town and OF damar-
ing the Russian ships lying in the basin.
or az least Of demoralizlng the person
mel OF the defending force.
The bombardment Of March showed
TO the Russians the advantage 10 The
enemy OF the position off Liaotishln
which Vice-Admiral Togo's ships took
up yesterday morning, and Vice Ad-
miral Makaroff sought to minimize this
! advantage by SO stationing the battfe-
! ship Retzivan that her shells conid
reach the Japanese battleships. The
fact that the Retvizan was used for
this purpose proves the falsity OF the
report that her great guns had been re-
moved and installed as a battery at
Pigeon Bay, and IL has given rise to
the impression that there is an inade-
quate supply of great guns at Por.
Arthur' as otherwise the battery would
have been erected TO protect the town
lat the only point which Vice-Admiral
Togo seems TO regard as vulnerable
from the sea.
Admiral Makarof's Defense.
When the first official despatcbes
were received the belief gained ground
that Vice-Admiral Makarof had put
TO sea and that a naval fight had taken
place. While this would be In xeepinr
with his character as an intrepid officer.
which is further indicated by his use of
a cruiser as his fagship. il was NOT in
accord with the plans OF the Russian
authorities. Later advices established
the fact that the Admiral had slmplv
gone With the unchanged portion OF
his fleet to the outer roads. where he
could more effectually support the bat
teries and at the same time take ad-
vantage OF any weakness which might
develop in the enemys attack.
