SAILED AWAY AFTER
JAPANESE MERCHANTMEN.

Toxic, March 6.-An Austrian steamer
which has arrived at Hakodate from
Vladivostok, reports that the Russian
squadron left Vladivostok on Feb. 20.
1t is presumed to be cruising ins north
ern waters with the hope of captur-
ing Japanese merchantmen.
Another report says that two Rus
sian warships have been seen off Usudi
bay.
Advices from Hakodate do not men
ton any attacks on northern ports.
The steamer Ekaterinoslav, of the
Russian volunteer transport fleet, which
had been fitted up as an auxiliary
cruiser, the steamer Manchuria, be-
longing to the Chinese Eastern Rail-
way Company, the schooner Sliepner
and the steam launch Ulide, have
been declared prizes of war by the
naval court at Sasebo. The decision
of the court is subject to an appeal

testimony proved highly sensational.
At the beginning of to-day's session,
Mr.. Smith gave figures, showing the
proportion of polygamists in the Nor
mon population, saying the number Of
polygamists originally excluded from
voting was 1000. Mr. Smith said that
in 1902 only S97 were still living.

Referring to Senator Bailey's ques-

ifesto, Mr. Worthington read from
sermon of President Woodruff deliv-
cred year after the manifesto against
plural marriages, in which President
Woodruff declared that he was moved,
and 10000 Latter Day Saints were
moved, by the spirit of God, to aban-
don the practice of plural marriage.
Senator Bailey contended that 1t was
in obedience to the demands of the
law or fear of the consequences OF
the law that provoked the revelation.
Continuing, he said:

faith in a doctrine that doesn't get

conduct until there ts a statute COM

constituted the feature of the proceed

Senator Reed Smoot of Utah.
The witness, angered by the per-

Every city of the South and West

the efforts of the conservative in the

DREYFUS CASE DOES
NOT AROUSE INTEREST.
Another Step Is Taken Toward His
VindicatiOn,


Paris, March 5.-The criminal branch
of the Court of Cessation to-day grant
ed the appeal of Alfred Dreyfus for a
revision of his trial. at Rennes. The
court held that a sufficient showing
had been made to warrant a reopen
ing of the case and ordered a supple
mentary investigation for the purpose
of establishing all the doubtful points
which have been the basis for the
present application to reopen the case.
The decision is another marked sue
cess for Dreyfus, although it is not
yet final, owing to the extended sup
Elementary investigation which must
follow the courts decision.
The decision was given at the close
of the third days hearing. Compare
lively little public interest has been
taken in the sessions of the court, and
the court room was almost deserted,
there being less than fifty persons
present at the final session. Among
these were Maitre Labori, the famous
lawyer, who defended Dreyfus at
Rennes, and several members of the
Dreyfus family.
An incident occurred during M. Nor
nards address. Counsel referred to
Dreyfus' great qualities of heart and
exalted character, and turned towards
M. Labori as If making a personal
official to have his statement confirm
ed. Thereupon M. Labor arose and
left the court room, causing some COM
motion.
M. Labori was quoted as saying in
the corridor that he did not wish by
his presence to confirm the eulogy
pronounced upon his former clients
