SMOOT TRIAL ON
IN WASHINGTON
Mormon President Says He
Believes That Polygamy Is
Diyinely Inspired
SAYS THAT SMOOT SANCTIONS Il

Washington. March al believe
plural marriages TO be right" was the
answer Of Joseph +. Smith, president
Of the Mormon Church. to a question
asked yesterday in the course Of the
inquiry by the Senate committee on
privileges and elections into the right
of Reed Smoot to sit as a United States
Senator from Utah.
President Smith also announced him
self as the recipient Of divine revcla-
tion, said he was inspired by God and
was gifted with power as prophet
and seer.
Incidentally, Mr.. Smith, besides de-
claring the divine inspiration Of him
self and the twelve apostles of the
church. including Senator smoot, said
he was president Of all the leading
corporations Of Salt Lake City, show
ing the close identification of the
church with the civic and industrial
affairs of the community.
The keynote of the Investigation Of
the case was sounded by Mr.. Taylor
near the close Of the days session,
when a dispute arose as to the admis-
sibility Of certain questions and an
swers. Mr.. Taylor said:
I'VE charge that the Mormons prac-
! tice polygamy with the knowledge of
Reed Smoot. The president of this
church, Notwithstanding his promises
and those Of his associates to abandon
lpolygamy; notwithstanding the fact
that the law of the land declares
against It; Notwithstanding the fact
/ that the Mormons declared by word
that it is a violation of the church doc
trines. who IS the daily associate of
Reed Smoot, has been constantly liv-
/ ing in poygamy with at least five
wives, and that the same thing is true
Of a large majority of Reed Smoots
/ weekly-to put it mildly-associates on
this body Che apostolate). organized
upon this basis as a fundamental
proposition. This majority believes in
polygamy authorized by the president
Of the church through divine order
and only temporarily suspended"

.BOTEIN WITNESSES
DEMUR At JOURNEY
Three Dover Persons Whose
Testimony Is Important
Cannot Leave

Miss Josephine Bateman, former
Postmaster Thomas NJ. Gooden and
Cashier Walter Morris. of the Farm
ers Bank, Delaware, witnesses in the
celebrated case of the People of Cali
fornia versus Cordelia Botkin, for the
murder of Mrs. John =. Dunning, Of
Dover, viii probably not be able 10 go
West next Tuesday when the other
witnesses start. The latter two cannot
make the business sacrifice attending
their leaving Dover at this time to re-
main an indefinite period IN the West,
while Miss Batenian, who Is a teacher
in the High School at Dover, feels thdt
she can neither leave her duties nor her
home.
Miss Bateman is an important Wit
ness. and yesterday she received an
urgent message from District Attor-
ney Byington, the California prose-
cutor, further soliciting here attend
ance. The prosecutor assured her that
the case against Mrs. Botkin was
even stronger than before, when they
secured a. second, degree conviction, and
there was now every reason to believe
that the woman would be convicted as
indicated. Miss Bateman may, ac-
cordingly decide to go. Attorney Cen
eral Ward is also urging her to recon-
slider. She can fully identify the box
which contained the poisoned candy
and was sitting beside Mrs. Dunning
when she received it.
All the other witnesses from Della
ware are preparing to leave Tuesday

Do not Neglect your Children S
Weak and Irritated Nerves.

There appears to be almost an epidemic
of st. Vtus dance among children. The

and an irritated condition Of the nerve

Its approach is shown by tho nerves be-
coming weak, the child Is pale, nervous,
restless, irritable. does not sleep well at
might, but dcsses restlessly, talks in sleep.
grits It's teeth. and has irregular appetite.
There viii be.a twitching OF the eyelids,
the hand. the arm, the leg or portion OK
the body, which spasmodic movements
viii gradually increase until the child is
more or less helpless.
It IS a very serious disease and should
never be allowed TO run. as the most ser-
lious consequences ensue in the utter wreck
Of the nervous system. 1t must be cured
at once.
The cure OF little Edna r.. daughter Of
Mrs. Sarah M. Hunter IS wonderful, and

tion. After the danger-polnt was passed

She could hardly talk so as TO be UNDER
lstood, and her mind was anectod. ]
Thought She would be insane Ny doctor
treated her for two months. but she grew
worse instead Of better. About this time
my attention was called TO a case Of st.

then she was seemingly cured. Every one
that saw her thought It the most wonder

ment Almost Half Century.

The present Congress may pass a bill
that VIII enable the Court of Claims al
Washington to adjust claim OF the Har-
Ian and Holllngsworth Company against
the government for work done on the
monitors Napa and Saugus during the
civil War. Although almost forty years
have elapsed since the bill was contracted

money.
The monitors were light craft and were
constructed under contract but il Is
claimed thaJ the government so changed

ton that the cost of the boats was ma
teriany increased and the company lost
money. It Is believed that tho bill for she
relief Of the company viii be passed and,
despite the time which has elapsed, the
claim will be settled. It has been so long
since the boats were constructed that
most people In this city had forgotten
that such vessels were ever built, but
