SMITH ON STAND
AGAIN
Tells of the Elders knOwl-
edge of Plural Marriages
and "Sealing" of Wives

The point sought to be brought out
in the examination of President JOS
f. Smith, head of the Mormon church
yesterday, was whether the higher Of
ficials Of the church knew that poly
gamy was being practiced generally
and, if they were aware of it, whether
they made any attempt to supp. ess 1t.
Chairman Burrows insisted upon
knowing f.om the witness whether he
would have investigated such charges
against any OF the apostles and the
witness answered again, 1T is not my
business to do It,"
Then he said, "All of the charges
nave occurred before / became presi-
dent and | know nothing about them.
But now that you are president,
what would you do if such charges
were nader" asked the chairman.
Mr.. smith said he would not In
vestigate the case because that it was
the duty of lesser officials. Chairman
Bur- ows asked in regard to the mar
Iiage ceremony performed in the
church. lie spoke OF the marriages

chat it was revealed to him by God.
Reading from the book which is call

ows called attention to the words oil
God in refer ence to David and Solo
mon and his displeasure because of tho
act that he kept more than one wife
and many concubines.
The chairman asked If that did not

chai man had read only a part OF the
chapter.

Chairman Burrows read a verse
where the Lord commands the chas-
atty of women, but still the witness
said:

Two more verses were read and
.hese provoked like requests until the
chairman objected.
Il do not want to read the entire

Mr.. Smith took the book and read
verse which declared that when the
Lord wanted his seed propagated he
would command 1t.
