New York March 1O.--A remarkable
test OF submarine boats has been made
at Portsmouth, according to Herald
dispatch from London In the course
Of the maneuyers now I'm progress
there II was decided TO attack the de-
fcnses Of the harbor and learn what
could be done by the submarines In re-
pelllng the assault,
The assaIlant was the home fleet UNI
der Admiral Wilson, consisting OF four
battleships with Ave cruisers, which
received orders 10 force an entrance In
TO Portsmouth harbor The submarine
flOtllla was aware that the attack would
be made at night and when the battle
ships were within range OF the forts
the latter opened terrific fire.
Under cover OF this cannonade four
torpedo destroyors put 10 sea and
steamed toward the assnllants. Along
side each destroyer and close under her
port beam was submarine, screened
from the battleshlps,
The destroyers approached within
striking distance OF the battleshlps
amid fearful roar OF blank anlmunI-
tlon from the forts and ships. When
the appointed distance has been reached
the appointed distance had been
reached. the four destroyers fell back
putting on all steam.
AZ the same instant the submarine
sank In few minutes later arose, one
alongside each battleshlp and claimed
the latter as their victims.
Tho crews OF the submarines dis.
played great skill and endurance In
their work, but their claims 20 victory
are disputed by the officers of the bat
tleships who say such movements
would have been impossible In real
engagement.

B. Critchlo Will Tell All He Knows About Utah Affairs

Smith had testified that he had violat-
ed the laws since 1880 and he asked OF
Mr.. Jensen do you know whether Mr..
Smith has ever been interfered with
for breaking the laws?'
Il think he was not"
''Do you know OF any nom Mormons'
who have been prosecuted since 1902
II don't know that any nom Nor
mons are living In Utah with more
than one wife, openly"
He said further that he knew OF the
prosecution OF one Mormon case
OF LorIn Harmer who testified yestei-
day In regard to his arrest and convic-
ton for adultery. Mr., Jensen said in
answer TO questions from Senator Hoar
that he had never known Of a prosecu-
ton OF a polygamist who continued TO
cohabit with plural wives he had mar
rled prior TO the manifesto OF 1890. He
said that II "Mormons' should turn IN
formers against polygamist under
such conditions, against President
Smith for instance, such Mormon In
formers would be odious In the sight
OF most members Of the Church.
Senator Dubois referred to the prose-
eution of Heber j. Grant and the wit
ness said he had heard Of no such cases.
Mr.. Jensen said II is only the high
officers Of the Church who are sup
posed 10 devote all Of their time to the
Church who are under obligations to
get the consent OF their brother Of
flcers when they desire TO engage In
some other business or enter politics.

that she was not considered as Teas
dales wife when he contracted the
