IN view of the fact the war with
Japan had its origin in a policy con-
ceived solely in the interest of small

spirit of reckless adventure which

government in the far east, we the

gincers, taking our stand on the funda-
mental principle that it is our bounden
duty to serve the interests of the peo-
pie and not those of a handful of ex-
ploters, express our profound dissatis-
faction With the government, which is
the responsible author of this fresh ma
tional misfortune, and ou. decided con-
demnation of that section of the Rus

THE smoOr CASE.
All Kinds of Facts Told by Men an,
Women Alike to Senate
Con, ~, i++ee

Washington, March 10.-The cross-ex-
animation of Miss Clara Mabel Ken
nedy was concluded in the Smoot case
today. Nothing further of Importance
was ELECTED.
Charles f.. Merrill. "a son of Apostle
Merrill. was the next witness. He said
he was 2 son of his fathers third plural
wife, and himself was u polygamist. He
had been married three tunes; his
first wife was dead; the marriage was
performed In 1891. He was living with
his second wife when he married the
third. Merrill said he is now CO.
habitating with both wives; they are
living mile apart, in different homes.
When he married the third Wife he was
living With his mother, but his father
was in hiding most of the time, as there
We're prosecutions for polygamy going
on.
Merrill said he had twenty brothers
AMI seventeen sisters; that his father,
who is now Very feeble. had six wives.
My father lives With his first Wife,
and comes to the home of my mother
probably not more .han once MONTH"
he said. My father is Il very busy
man"
Merrill thought three of his brothers
had married plural wives and two of
his sisters had married into polygamous
families.
The prosecution called TO the stand
Mrs. Emma Matthews, mother of Mrs.
Clara Mabel Kennedy. Mrs Matthews
said she had been d member of
Mormon family for twenty-five years,
is Mormon herself. She had been
plural Wife, but is not now
Another PoIyaamous Apostle.
Francis Nj. Lyman, a member of the
first presidency of the Mormon church
and prospective successor of Smith as
president OF the church followed NIra
Matthews. He became an apostle i'm
1880, and frankly acknowledged he was
polyganist and had been married
three times and had two wives living.
BY the second wife, whom he mar
red in 1884, he had five children, the
last born i'll 1900. The pith of his
testimony was summed up in ques-
ton by Senator Hoar as follows:
so you, an apostle of your church,
expecting TO succeed Smith In the
presidency, and in that capacity to re-
ceive divine revelations, confess that
you are now living, and expect to con-
tinue to live, in disobedience of the
law of the country of your church and
of God? 2"
Witness replied Yes" but he added
that he considered it his duty to live
with and protect his wives.
Lyman said Smoot had never re-
proved him for living in polygamy
either in public or in apostolic meet
ings.
Lyman said he was presiding officer
of the twelve apostles, and named five
of the twelve who are conceded to be
polygamists. Smoot, he said, attended
the meetings of the APOSTLES and took
part In the exercises at the weekly
meetings. Witness said he never in
! troduced any of his wives ,o Smoot.

ST. Petersburg Learns That the Japs
Haven't Bombarded vIadivostok
at All So Far

St. Petersburg, March 10.-Ahere is no
truth in the reports that the Japanese
fleet bombarded Nladivostok all day
yesterday. According to the latest in
formation the fleet simply showed itself
and then sailed away without firing
gun.
one reason for the appearance Of
Japanese in foreign waters, advanced
here, is their probable desire to regain
possession of the island OF Sakhalien,
which was ceded to Russia by Japan.

hausted the fish supply of the Amur

PORTE WANTS MUCH.
Would Let Russia Pass the DardaneIle'
if Russia Would Keep Out Of
the Balkans

Berlin, March 10-The porte has thus
far met the requests of the Russian
ambassador to Turkey to permit the
Black sea fleet to pass the Dardaneles
by naming conditions wholly unaccept-
able by Russia. One OF these is that
Russia break off or evade the fulfill
ment of her agreements with Austria
respecting the Balkans. and give the
sultan leave 10 settle that controversy
by his own methods, and that Russia
assist Turkey should Austria or other
powers dispute the sultan'S decision.
Russia rejected the proposals as pre-
posterous, but she renewed her request,
To which there seems little likelihood of
the sultan yielding, as British diplo>
macy is active at Constansinople in
urging on the porte strict observance
of the Berlin treaty.
Russia would not use the Dardanelles
now il she could, in the opinion of ex-
perts here, because her Black sea fleet
is not ready for far eastern cam
paisn, and ii it We're ready Russia
would wait until her Baltic fleet We're
thoroughly equipped. 1t is believed
Russia could not hope for a decisive
naval success without the Baltic, Black
sea and Mediterranean squadrons
uniting and proceeding east together;
as otherwise they would be destroyed
peccmeal.

land should go TO her. She alleges
that in accordance with the terms OF
the agreement she moved to the farm,
where she has since resided. She
states that she kept her agreement by

the time of his death, and that in ad-
dition she improved the land by having
several buildings erected upon it.

VLADIVosToK REDUCED
laps Declare That Their Attack Has
Utterly Wrecked the Towns
Defenses

Toxic, March 10-It is announced that
a report has been received by the navy
department from the fleet which on
Sunday bombarded Vladivostok. The
report was sent to F'ukuyama, in the
southern part of the Island of Yesso,
and from there was cabled to Toxic.
While the report is by no means a
complete one and will not be made
public for strategic reasons, it is stated
that it contradicts fatty the official
Russian dispatches that state the shell
fire of the fleet did no damage to the
Russian defanses.
On the contrary the Japanese COM
mander claims that his shell fire was
Wondrously effective and that the
bursting of the lyddite bombs could be
clearly observed from the flagship. rs
pecially was this true of the fire of the
Odsuma, which was exclusively direct
ed first at the battery at Cape Tokar-
evski and afterward at the Cooper
Point battery. The huge twelve-inch
shells Went true to the mark, and it
was plain to see that nearly all of them
exploded after hitting the mark.
According to the report, both bat
teries, which are among the most i'm
nc rtant of the defenses of the town,
We're so seriously damaged that their
usefulness for defensive purposes is,
gone and they cannot readily be re-
paired.
Search for Russian Squadron.
When an attempt was made to Learn
the official opinion of the location of.
the Russian Siberian squadron, the ma
val experts positiN ely declined to dis
cuss the matter other than to state
that they would be taken care of. wher-
ever they are. IT Is known that y Jap

the Russians in the sea of Japan.
One report has III that after being
seen off Gensan on the Korean coast on
Thursday last the Russians sailed.
northMard and are NOW preparing to
strike a blow at some OF the Japanese
coast cities before trying to force a
passage into the open Pacific.
AS the Russian fleet is composed en-
tirely of vessels that can easily make
and maintain a speed of twenty knots
for Il long period, and as all carry q
large supply of coal, their bunkers be-
ing of enormous size, they are decidedly
formidable opponents. The squadron
is made up Of the armored cruisers
Rossia, 12,2oo the Rurk, 11,000; the
protected cruiser Bogatyr, $500, and the
auxiliary cruiser Lana, 10,250.
Japs Select Fastest Ships.
AS with the exception of the last two
they were built as commerce destroyers,
and their bottoms We're scraped in dry
dock within six months, they are in
shape to run away from most of the
vessels of the Japanese fleet and dis
tance them etfectually. This fact intlu-

PETT!GREW's CALL.
Former Senator Tells President Rose
bud Lands Are Worth Not Over
SIPS Per Acre.

Washington, March 10.-EX- Senator
Pettigrew had a conference with the
president TO-DAY on the bill for opening
the Rosebud reservation. He spoke for
Il number of South Dakota citizens. He
opposed the plan of the president for
selling the lands at auction, and said
the price now fixed in the bill, SO an
acre, was too high. He thought 81 %
an acre was enough, as the land. he
says is grass land.
Discussing politics, he said Roosevelt
would be renominated. but the cleo
ton was an uncertainty. With the
scandals now in the air he believed
there was much reason to regard the
situa ton as favorable for good demo-
cratic candidate and platform. He said
he was for Hearst, but would uphold
any good nominee not republican.
