MORMONS' RANK
-. KNOWN BY GARB
Endowment House Graduates,
Says Woman, Must Don
Special Garments.

Washington, Dec. 16.-The first wit
ness in the Senator Smoot inquiry today
was Mrs. Anna Elliott Of Price, Utah.
She went from Denmark to Utah in
1872, and left the Mormon church in
1896. She was asked concerning the OBJ
legations taken in the temple, and was
requested to repeat as much of the cere-
monies as she could remember.
In a voice shaken with emotion Mrs.
Elliott said that the obligations were
so indelicate she could not bear to re-
peat them. Chairman Burrows told
her to take her own time, and not to be
embarrassed.
By slow degrees Mrs. Elliott repeated
the oaths of vengeance and the various
penalties ascribed for revealing any
part of the ceremonies, which have been
described by other witnesses.
Mrs. Elliott described the garments
worn by Mormons who have taken the
endowments. Senator Overman asked
If every Mormon in good standing is
compelled to wear the garments, and the
witness said that all such Mormons
wear the garment as underclothing.
| Looking at Senator Smoot, Senator
Overman asked the witness if she were
sure every Mormon in good standing in
the committee room had the garments

provoked laughter and the witness re-
piled: II know they all have then

WINDOWSMASHER
. AMUCK LIKE ADAM
Swinging Crowbar Madly, a Man
in the Altogether Plays
Havoc in Gotham.

New York, Dec. 16-Perched on the
top Of a snow-heap at Fourth avenue
and TWenty-second street, a completely
nude man armed with crowbtr kept
half q dozen policemen and crowd Of
men at bay for half an hour early to-
day, after he had smashed nearly a
score Of big plate glass windows valued
at 5000 each. The man was finally cap
stured, and taken to hospital. He
made no attempt to explain his strange
conduct, and the hospital attendants
said he undoubtedly was insane.
The. police were. attracted by a Sc
ries Of crashes and saw man without
a shred Of clothing running down Tween
third street and swinging a crowbar
thru every plate glass window he
passed. Several more policemen and "a
hundred men and boys joined in the
chase. He turned upon his pursuers
and swung the heavy crowbar, keeping
them at a safe distance until a cab
driver threw a horse blanket over him
In a moment half a dozen policemen
had subdued him, and he was taken to
hospital.
His clothing, but.nothing to indicate
his identity was found in a doorway
near by. The man is about 25 years
old and apparently a laborer.

JURY RESUMES
MURDER HEARING
Indictment May Be Returned To-
night New Murder Suspect
Sought by Defense.
Special to The Journal.

New Ulm, Mimi, Dec. 16.-At 2
o o'clock this afternoon the grand jury
resumed consideration of the murder
charge against DR.. Koch. Extra pre-
cautions are being taken to prevent
leakage from the juryroom, and the
ba1l1H and all other persons have been
ordered by W. W. Smith, the foreman,
to keep away. It is expected the hear
ing will be finished this afternoon and
an Indictment returned this evening or
early tomorrow ~
A chemist from the state university
was examined this afternoon as to the
drug sent under mysterious wrapper
to DR.. Gerhard. He found strychnine.
It is said that j. H. Haenze, editor Of
the Hanska Herald, will testify that to
the best Of his knowledge and belief the
word "sample,'' written in red ink on
the package containing the poison, is in
the handwriting Of DR.. Koch. The edi-
tor received letters from Dr.. Koch
when the latter was visiting Hanska
to open his branch office and has dis
covered a marked similarity between
the penmanship Of the letters and Of
the word upon the bottle. .'--~-
New Clue May Be Important.
The defense is seeking new suspect
and intimates that important develop
ments are at hand. Fritz Hauert is the
name of this suspect and he disappeared
from his place the Saturday following
the murder and has not been heard
from since: Hauert was employed for
time by Dan Williams, a farmer, who
IS ready to swear, according to state
hammer found in DR.. Gebhard's office
belonged to Hauert. Williams says
that. Hauert used to carry the hammer
with him to repair fences and do other
work about the farm.
"Hauert's hammer,' says Williams,
'had short handle and the left claw
was broken off. The hicks in the face
are Just the same. Hauert was ugly
and quarrelsome and once came to my
house and threatened us a1l.'
>. An effort will be made to have VIII
ilam's evidence heard by the grand
| jury: The defense has started out de-
tectives and has discovered that Hauert
once had trouble with DR.. G.. F. Rein.
ecke,> whose office adjoined that of DR.
Gebhard. Reinecke was health com.
tinaae aea Two years ago and quaran;
fever: This enraged Hauert and in the
presence. of his neighbors he declared
he would have the life Of the officer.
F. y Reinecke His Quarry.
1t IS now a theory Of the defense that
he went to the. office of Drs. Reinecke
and .Gebhard intent on murder and, not
finding the former, turned in his frenzy
upon the dentist. When in drinp
Hauert was desperate and dangerous
Mrs. Hauert had made complaint tx
the authorities of his brutality and {
watch has been kept over the place
Thoping that Hauert would return.
The defense will try to show that DR.
Koch $ hand. was injured in the name,
in which he has represented from tn,
outset. His statement was accepted BY
the Interstate Accident " Relief as
ISOLATION Of New Ulmn, in which he ha>
p state contends that he pnrposely burned
Ehis hand to obliterate the marks %
s injuries received in his desperate en-
e counter with DR.. Gebhard. -&<.-rs: 4

Garrison.

Chi-fu, Dec. 16.-Passengers who ar
Yived today from the Kwang-tung
peninsula confirm the truth OF the Of
hcial japanese reports of the sinking
Of various Russian ships recently at
Port Arthur. They say the Japanese
could have done this at any time in
the past two months, but apparently
preferred to use their guns against the
Russian military forces.
It is believed the destruction Of the
Russian ships indicates that the Jap
anese have abandoned hope Of captur-
Ing the fortress. =,
The japanese lost three torpedoboats
within the past month by mines, the
last one sinking in the night attack OF
Dec. ID. on the Sevastopol.

will hold out for many months.
