HAS RUSSIA HAD ENOUGH?

Speaking Of the probabilities and pos
slblllties OF the struggle In Asia, Walter
Wellman quotes authority, though with
out giving the name. for the opinion
that Russia Is already beaten and that
she ought to make peace upon the best
terms obtainabe The partial destruc-
tion of the Russian squadron at Port

AS TO ELDER HEBER J. GRANT

A great deal has been said since the
investigation Of the affairs Of the
Mormon Church has been In progress
before n Senate committee, about the
departure Of Elder Hebcr j, Grant one
of the Twelve Apostles, for Europe
some time ago It has been alluded
to by Judge O. w, Powers In his tes-
tlmony before that committee. We
learn that Senator Burrows, chairman
OF the committee, who appears to be
taking a very active part In the IN
Quiry, remarkably so for presiding
officer, desires to know where Apostle
Grant can be found, and Is very anXi-
Gus to have him before the committee.
Elder Grant is travelling In Europe, as
President of the mission there which
embraces very wide field besides the
churches IN the British Isles, II Is not
very likely that he would want to
leave his duties there to meet with
the gentlemen IN Washington. even II

Elder Grant was appointed to succeed
President Francis NJ Lyman in Europe,
long, before an attempt was made to
have him arrested In this city. He had
made all arrangements to leave here
on a certain day but was detained some
hours later and a common informer
laid plans TO stop his departure, but
was little too late, Elder Grant had
taken train for the East when the at
tempt was made TO serve the papers
