GREATLY REDUCED.

Senator Bailey Intimates That Law

Revelation Regarding Abandon

Washington, March 7.-Calling Pres
ident Joseph F. Smith, of the Mormon
church, to the stand Saturday, Attor-
hey A. s. Worthington resumed cross
examination for the defense in the in
vestigation before the senate commit
tee on privileges and elections in the
case of Reed Smoot, of Utah. He
tics showing the proportion of polyg-
amists in the Mormon population.
Mr.. Smith said his recollection is
that when the Utah commission was
created in 1882 and undertook to ad-
minister the laws of the territory
$4,000 polygamists were excluded from
voting. LAS the women vote in Utah"
he said, land as it requires two women
to one man to form polygamy in the
state, probably the number of males
excluded as polygamists would not be
more than 4,0OO."
Senator Dubois exercised a right to
question the witness at this point and
100000, and of that number there were
about $4,000 gentiles. He wanted eX-
Guided from consideration the number
not in condition to enter a state Of
polygamy. He said President Smiths
statement of the percentage in polyg-
amy included sucking babes and chill
dren, and that he objected to having
Mr., Smiths statement go before the
country unchallenged.
Statistics Given.
After a further statement of the
number of polygamist families in
Utah, Mr.. Smith read from an inter-
view he gave to representative of the
press in 1902, showing the following:
I'm 1890, at the time of the late
President MILFORD Woodruff's mani
festo, there were 2,451 such families.
I'm October, 1899, it was found that
this number had been reduced, as fol-
lows:
by death, $50; by removals beyond
the confines of the republic, 63; by di-
vorce, So; leaving at that time 1,543.
ut is now ascertained' that the orig
inal number has been reduced by 1,55i
or 63 per cent, leaving only 1877 still
living, and that the great majority of
them are of advanced age"
Senator Dubois asked if any United
States officials now took statistics on
polygamy, and the witness replied in
the negative.
Then said Senator Dubois, these
figures are only church statistics"
Referring to Senator Bailey's ques-
tions Friday in regard to the mani
festo, Mr.. Worthington read from a
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 it was
in obedience to the demands of the law
or fear of the consequences of the law
that moved the revelation.
