I hat it would be a mistake to material

The police, however, do not fear

on the part of strange negroes.
In the opinion of City Solicitor Ia
tum. neither the city nor county a
be held responsible for the burning of
the levee district by the mob 1t is an
admitted fact that. while public senti-
mentment Is against the means en-
ployed to put the negro out of the way,
there is universal rejoicing that he is
dead and it is realized that it will BE
extremely difficult to secure a jury
that will assess more han nominal
damages, if any at all. While a special
grand jury will sit Monday to inve5ti-
gate the lynching. it is thought that Ii
will be impossible to indict either the
leaders Of the mob which did the
lynching or the subsequent burning.

cross examination Of the witness and
his attempts to prove certain evidence

would have beer the first dull day of
the hearing.
Mr.. Critchlow said Smoot
ed his candidacy first in 1900, and
"a the announcement met with de-
cided opposition from Republicans
and others. The objections were man
ifested, according to the witness. at
Of the Legislature and in expressions
from the ministerial association OIL
Utah. Mormons as we'll as non-Mor-
mons were opposed to sending an
apostle to the Senate and it was well
Know to ALL the candidacy Of Mr..
Smoot was not received with favor.
Senator Beverage questioned the
witness in regard to the general repu-
tation of enator Smoot, particularly
as to whether he is a polygamist.
Mr.. Critchlow said he had
heard it charged that Mr. Smoot has
more than one wife.
Mr.. Critchlow said that it was the
opinion Of non-Mormons and many
of the Mormons, tina if officials such
as apostles, should enter politics,
there was no chance for lay members
and they would not dare to aspire to
high political honors. The necessity
OF apostles getting consent is eQuiva-
lent to church endorsement when that
consent is given, said h witness.
You say they would not dare to
aspire to office" said Senator Bever-
idge. What would happen if they
would?"
'"They would undoubtedly be dealt
with"
How"
They would be held to be out of
harmony and not disposed to take
counsel OF those higher in the
Church."
well, what Of that; what would
have been done to them?"
'"They would have been disfellow-
shipped and ostracised from the
Church"
DC you know of any who have
been disfellowshipped for any offetrse
of independent political action
The witness said he did not know
that he could mention any, but hat
many instances could be given where
it was shown hat the Church dOm1-
mated. Mr.. Critchlow related a case
at Brigham City, where a controversy
between leaders Of the Church and
the people, Mormons and nOn-MDr-
mons, over municipal affairs. The
people Of Brigham City were demand
ing municipal ownership for an cleo
trio light plant and this was opposed
by the mayor, who took the case to
Charles Kelly, president of the Stake.
According to the story of Mr.. Cr.tch-
low, MI. Kelly then received 4 rave-
lation from the Lord to the effect that
a should be formed to take
the lighting plant n that he should
be president of the concern. The rev
elation was submitted to the general
conference at Brigham City and was
there rejected. Many of the Mormon5
who opposed the transaction were
disfellowshipped.
The witness when asked concerning
Senator Shoots power to prevent the
violations of the laws in regar1 L"
polygamous cohabitation, said:
"By one word Smoot could eithe.
stop what is going .on or cease to be
an apostle"

Progress of the War.

London, March 11.-Neither the Of
fetal nor the independent dispatches
published this morning add much
knowledge to the progress of the war.
Speculation regarding the military SIT
uation on the Yalu river is most keen.
but no news Of a reliable character has
been received.
The Nagasak correspondent Of the
Daily Express asserts that 100000
troops have been shipped from Japan
and that a portion of the second army
corps is now on its way TO Korea.
The correspondent of the DaiIy
Chronicle at Toxic, evidently referring
to the same movements, cables that
h transportation to Northern Korea,
of three divisions of Japanese troops
has been completed and that these men
are beginning to advance. while ten d.
visions of the second army corps have
already been modified.
The Shanghai correspondent of the
Daily Telegraph says that the Japa-
nese. after Port Arthur is n~eutral1zed,
probably will o two armies to the
north simultaneously, one from the
southern part of the Lao Tung PENN
suls m the other from the Yalu river.
The Russians are now moving north
var in Korea, this correspondent con-
tinues. with the intention of making
WIFI their defensive base.
A correspondent of the Daily Tele-
graph who was in Japan recently,
wires from Seoul that the japanese are
making steady progress with their and
movements. The roads are occupied
by japanese troops.
According to a Tien Tsin corresp1z-
dent OF the Standard, the Russians are
withdrawing all their superfious troops
from Port Arthur to Hardin and Klriu
because of the shortness OF provisions.
and It is doubtful whether Or
not they would be able to hold either
Port Arthur or New Chwang against a
resolute attack.
The spirit of the Russian troops,
who are largely recruits. has been
broken by starvation. cold and harsh
treatment from their officers. The
