A Claim by the Friends of
Hearst in Massachusetts
WILL BE NO UNIT RULE
The Supporters Of hr. 0lney, How
ever, Say That the Delegates Who
Will be Chosen in Today's Conven-
tion Will Require no Binding.

Boston, April 20.-The spirit of con-
cession to the supporters of w. r.
Hearst was manifest at tonight's meet
ing of the democratic state committee
called to perfect arrangements for to-
morrow's state convention at which
delegates at large and alternates to
the national convention will be chosen.
The friends of Richard Olney claimed,
however. that the convention would
advocate Olney's nomination for the
presidency by selecting delegates
pledged for him.
The Hearst men, headed by George
Fred Williams. won what they consider
an important concession from the
state committee when that body voted
against the embodiment of the unit
rule in the call for the convention. Mr.
Williams claimed that part of the con-
Vention cali which declared that the
election of district delegates was sub
1ect 70 the action of the convention
had never been authorized and that it
had been subsequently inserted Illegal
iy by former Mayor Josiah Quincy Of
this city. 1t appeared that the call had
originally been sent out without the
words tc which Mr.. Williams objected.
and it was voted that the call as first
issued should stand as the legal call for
the convention.

THE SMOOT SEARCH
Brigham h. Roberts on
the Stand
The Necessity Of the Church's Recog.
milton OF a Political Aspirant - The
Endowment House Oath.

Washington, April 20.-With the re-
Smoot case before the senate COMMITTEES
on privileges and elections, the prosecu-
tion devoted considerable time to draw
ing from Brigham H. Roberts the char
acter of the oaths which are said tC be
necessary for a Mormon official to
take in order to have the support of the
church for political Office. The mem
bers of the committee showed equal in
terest in the obligations which are said
to be taken by Mormons who "go
through the Endowment house" Along
both lines much evidence was brought
out.
1t was shown by Roberts testimony
that without the consent of the Mormon
church he failed of election to a seat
in congress and later with church re-
cognition of his candidacy he was elect
ed.
In relation 10 the Endowment house
obligation Roberts was extremely Teti-
cent. He said that the sacredness of
the secrecy was. such that he could not
reveal it to the world, and that if he
did so he would lose caste with the
church as having betrayed a trust.
Portions of testimony given by Rob-
erts, especially in regard to his reasons
for maintaining polygamous cohabita-
ton with his plural wives. was almost
a duplication of the testimony given by
other polygamists, who have been on
the stand. He said he regarded the
laws of God as higher than the laws of
the land and that his moral obligation
to his wives was greater than both the
laws of God and man.

A FLANKINe MOVEMENT.
Expert Military Opinion of Japanese
Intentions.

st. Petersburg, April 20.-What may
turn out to be the anticipated flanking
movement of the Japanese troops is
the appearance of a number of Japan
ese ships off Potinsa, near the Gulf of
Ching Tai Use, as reported to the en-
peror today by General kuropatkin.
The military experts here have long
regarded the vicinity as the probable
point of Decentralization of the second
Japanese expedition. 1t is not far
away from Takushan (twelve miles to
the east and connects by road with
Port Arthur O5O miles to the south
west) AMI ycng Huan Cheng Cffty
miles to the northwest) where the Rus
slams will make their first obstinate
resistance.
Though the japanese are building
entrenchment on the Yalu it is be-
lieved that they will advance soon
Arrangements for a turning movement
are complete and experts say that sucn
move could properly begin at Taku-
shan, as Feng Huan Cheng hes at the
angle of an equilateral triangle, with
Takushan and the mouth of the y Yalu
as angles at the base of a triangle.
The Japanese Decentralization will
undoubtedly be covered by warships
and the Russians recognize that it will
be impossible to prevent it.
I'VE will strike after they have
landed" grimly said a member of the
staff. General Kuropatkin is aware of
the strategic Importance of the vicin-
ity of Takushan, and it is understood
that he has made his arrangements
accordingly.
