Special to The Journal.
Saltwater, MINI. March 4.--The war de-.
partmenr. has proposed ito boat owners
here thatssrestrictions be placed upon the
running ofIogs between this*city and Tay-
Tors Falls so that the river will be free
from logs from 1 p. m. on Thursday Of
each week until the following Sunday at
A o. M, during the excursion season from
May Is tosAug. 81.
The boom Company and some of the boat
owners do not like the proposition, pre-
ferring that the policy of last year " con-
tinued. No restrictions governed the driv-
ing of, logs last year, but the dam and
boom companies arranged to have no logs
running the last Of the week when the
excursion business IS always the heaviest.
Under this system little or no friction de-
veloped.

London, March 4.-The military sit
uation in the far east has not been
altered materially in the last twenty
four hours. Ping Yang is clearly to
be held as q first base by the Japanese
in their offensive operations. with
iYuen-san as q secondary base for pro-
lection against thanking movements;
but the army in Korea is likely to re-
main on the defensive until heavily
reinforced by the first reserves.
The lowest estimate Of the Japanese
force now in Korea is $4,000. and the
highest 100000. Whether or not OPP
erations are conducted simultaneously
against Port Arthur and Vladivostok
with reinforcements from the second
reserves, it Is evident that several
weeks must elapse before the plan OF
campaign can be carried out etfec-
lively. - II
Extremely cold weather is again re-
ported, and this must prevent the
landing of troops beyond Chinampho.
even If that port be clear from ice.
Vladivostok ia inaccessible at present.
while special dispatches report that
correspondents are going to the front
and decisive events are impending It
Is not improbable that the lull Will
continue. ..,......... ,a.,.... -.

New York Sun Special Service
=, Salt Lake, Utah, March 4. The tes-
timony given yesterday by President
Smith, head of the Mormon church,
before the senate committee, astound-
ed both. Mormon and Gentle: For
years the policy of the church has
been one of secrecy and President
Smiths action in boldly stating that
not only himself but the rest of the
church officials are living in open de-
fiance. of the law, has so amazed the
members of the Mormon faith that
their tongues are almost paralyzed.
The official organ Of the Mormon
church praises President Smith and
savagely attacks the anti-Smoot peo-
pie. It denounces Attorney Taylor for
prying into the private affairs Of Pres
.ident Smith and his fellow polyga-
mists."
1t is known here that Smith was
compelled to make his confession be-
cause he had knowledge that, the anti
Smoot people had clear case against
him. and other church officials. III.
