! but very little about the case and since
the occurrence has given the officers but
/ little information. II is thought that he
| knows great deal more than he has
told Where he was and what he did
! has not Vet been accounted for.
Others in the case have been equally
r.ticent in talking of the matter and
| have told several different stories about
the affair. All of them are said to have
| told different stories of the trouble both
before and after the affair at the Parl:
House which resulted in the death OF
Newkirk.
| A number Of stories of the affair have
gained circulation one Of which is told
by I.eWless' friends is that Lawless had
given Newkirk a suit of clothes and had
aftcrward sold him a suit. They say
that Lawless heard that Newkirl< had
some money ana that he endeavored TO
collect it from him.
The police give little credencc to that
story however. for they see no reason
why I.awlcss should have sent Kelley t.
Newhirk to tell him he wanted to see
him when he, Lawless, was only short
distance away. If rs wanted to see New
kirk about the 81. which Newkirk is said
| tn have owed him. it would hav" beer
more probable, they say. that he woulc
have gone to him himself. They also
scout the idea that LaWlcSS ever sold q
suit of clothes to Ncwkirk for the reasoi
| that I.awleSS is short man while New
kirk was six feet and two inches tall
In view Of the conflicting stories which

French barkentine Union were brought
to this port Monday on the steamship

water-logged. Then began the battle
for life by the crew. Night and day
the men worked at the pumps and hal

Union and took off the crew. Before
leaving the vessel Capt. Carrow set 1t

doned in latitude 44.3O north and

.MORMOKs AS EDUCATORS
HIGH PRAISE IS GIVEN THEIR
SCHOOLS CT LEARNING.
Judge Powers Continues Testimony
Before Senate Committee-Story
of Apostle Grant.

Washington, April 26.-Judge o. W.
Powers was on the stand again at the
opening Of the Smoot investigation be-
fore the senate committee on privileges
and elections Monday and Attorney Van
Colt resumed cross-eXamination. He
questioned the witness in regard to Nor
mon interest in educational affairs.
Judge Powers praised the people high
ly for their application to trades, profess
sions, art and the sciences.
Mining schools and other scientific
institutions were praised by the wit
ness. who said that Mormon schools
easily rank with the best institutions of
learning in the country.
In regard to the Discrimination of Nor
mons to inform on polygamists, Judge
Powers said that no person likes to be
called Or considered an informer. Ref
erence was made to the attitude of dem
ocrats who were gentiles in nominal
ing Brigham H. Roberts, a Mormon, for
congress.
WELL" said Mr.. Powers, I'VE thought
Roberts was going to be the Moses who
would lead us out of our political diff
culties. We thought he would take us
away from church domination in poll
tics"
While Judge Powers commended
much of the educational policy in Utah,
he said the admirable system was in
augurated before statehood. In answer
to a question by Senator Bailey the wit
ness said he understood that in some
sections the public schools were dis
missed early fer religious instruction.
The Mormons found much to complain
of in regard to that. said the witness.
Chairman Burrows ascertained from
the witness that he knew Apostle Heber
J. Grant, who is now in Germany at
tending an international kindergarten
convention, and asked:
Apostle Grant is a great educator, is
he nct?"
"In some lines said the witness,
laughingly. He then detailed a speech
before a Utah university made by Grant,
at which he contributed $3.50 for the
school. According to the witness Grant
said $50 was for himself and $50 for each

Mr.. Van Colt asked Judge Powers il

count of the warrant, but that he lett

Moses Thatcher was then called to the
stand, and after a short testimony the
committee adjourned until 10:30 Tues

his story.
