E~x-Prcsidcnt Cleveland Denies That
negro Dincd at Wiifc Hcrrc.

Ex-Prcsidcnt Cleveland Denies That
Negro Dincd az White House.
WASHINGTON, March An the
house a letter was read from Grover
Cleveland to Representative Webb of
North Carolina denying that c. II. ].
Taylcr, a negro. had Cined with him
at the White House while he was pres
ident, as charged by Representative
Scott QKan) a few days ago. Mr..
Scott promptly offered his apology to
the former president, saying he never
before had heard the statement which
he had made denied.
The following is Nj. Cleveland's let.
ter to Representative l.. Y. Webb:
sit is Il small nee to me that a
Mr.. Scott has seen fit to use my name
in a display of his evil propensities on
the floor of the house of representa-
tives:
I'm answer to your inquiry, however,
| have to say of his statement that a
colored man. c. II. j.. Taylor, took
lunch with me at the White House
that it is a deliberate fabrication out
of whole cloth.
Gas far as Mr.. Taylor is concerned

wives have borne me Children
"Since that timer asked Mr.. Bur-
rows.
''Since that time" the witness re-
peated in answer. II rather. thsik," he.
added, that one of them has had three
children. | could tell you a little later
He said in reply to Mr.. Tayler that he
had attended the dedication exercises
at the st. Louis exposition and had been
accompanied by Il plural wife, Edna
Smith by name.
Senator Smoot had been with them
on that occasion, when they had been
photographed in a group.
In reply to a question by Senator
Smoot he said:
each of my families has a home of
its own in Salt Lake City and ON
p%aratively neal to each other. Since
the manifesto my custom has been to
live with my first wife at her home,
but l have visited my other families"
He also said, replying to Mr.. Tayler,
that he had been present at the recep-
ton to the president at Senator
Kearns' residence in Salt Lake City
and that he had had one of his plural
wives with him, but that she was not
the one whom he took TO st. Louis.
For himself, he had preferred to
take chances with the law rather
than to disgrace himself and degrade
his family by abandoning his wives
and the children they had borne him.
He admitted that he had had children
by all of his five wives since the man
ifesto and said he had acknowledged
them openly without interference or
disturbance from the people of Utah,
whom he characterized as liberal and
broadminded. The defense will open
their case with President Smith as
first witness.
Perth Amboy evening news., 1904-03-04

understand, prior to his appointment
as register of deeds at Washington,
that he had served as an assistant in
the office Of the city attorney ut Kan
sas City. His nomination as register
was confirmed by the senate, and he
served in that place with intelligence
and efficiency. He has since died.
Some people restrain themselves from
abusing the dead.
MY inquiries concerning Mr.. Taylor
before his appointment, my obserya-
ton of him during his incumbency and
the little | have known of him since
satisfy me that his character is very
unjustly attacked in the diatribe Of
Mr.. Scott.
"One charge is made against Mr..
Taylor by Mr.. Scott which he doubly
clinches with truth when he declares,
He was a black negro | am led,
however, to doubt his familiarity with
his subject when he adds, AS black
rs you ever saw"
The house passed the District of Co
lumbia appropriation bill and took up
the Indian appropriation bill.

SHOOT AND SENATE
Head Of Mormon Church Con-
fesses to Violating Code.
"WILL TAKE CHANCES WITH TIE LAW"
President Joseph Smith Said Mani
festo of 1880 Had Left Him with
Plural Families, and He Had
to Defy the Statutes.

WASHINGTON, March 4. Attor-
ncys for the protestants in the Smoot
investigation said they expected to
prove that the defendant is associated
with Il hierarchy which practices po-
lygaIuy and conniyes at violations of
The law and that his very vote as a
senator of the United States is sub
iect to the wish and command of the
Mormon church.
President Joseph Smith confessed
that he himself had continued to CO.
habit with his plural family since the
manifesto of 1850 and that he realized
fully that he was violating state laws.
President Smith also testified that
Reed Slnoot had to get the consent of
his associated apostles in the church
before he could become a candidate
for senator.
The confession of President Smith
was the sensation of the proceedings
| before the senate committee on privi-
leges and elections. Mir. Smith said
that the manifesto of 1890 had left him
and others with plural families in the
unfortunate situation of being COM
PEELED to defy the law or desert their
families.
In answer to the question whether
p~olygamous rehabilitation was regarded
| by the church as contrary to the law
! he answered, ut was"
Continuing. he said: "This was the
case and is the case now But l was
| placed in this position. l had a family
"a plural family, if you please. | mar
| ried my first wife more than thirty
eight years ago and my last wife more
than twenty years ago. BY these
| wives | have had children, and l have
preferred to take my own chances
| with the law and suffer any conse
quences the law might visit upon me
rather than to abandon those children
and their mothers.
Il have continued to live with them
| since the manifesto of 1890, and they
have borne me children since that
date. was fully aware of what l was
doing. | knew / was amenable to the
law; but, as l say, l preferred to face
that situation rather than to desert
them.
Il have not Haunted the fact that |
have acknowledged these wives and
children as my family. The people of
Utah have regarded the situation as an
existing fact.
Mr.. Burrows asked Mr.. Smith if he
had married any wives between the
first and last date he had mentioned
during his statement TO the committee.
Il have" said Mr.. Smith.
How many?'
"Three."
"Then got have five wives now?" said
Mr.. Burrows.
''That is correct" was the response.
Mr.. burrows ruled that the question
| objected TO was in order and directed
the stenograplier to read the question.
GLOW many children have you had
since the manifesto of 1902 was read.
"Eleven since 1890" said Mr.. Smith.

JUST ONE DAY .
Free from the Slugger Brought Out
a Fact.

During the time I was a coffee
drinker,' says an Iowa woman, II was
nervous, had spells with my heart,
smothering spells, headache, stomach
trouble, liver and kidney trouble. I
did not know for years what made me
have those spells. / would frequently
sink away as though my last hour had
come
''For q years / suffered thus and
used bottles of medicines enough to
set up a drug store-capsules and pills
and everything heard of. Spent lots
Of money but I was sick nearly all
the time. Sometimes I was so nervous
could not hold plate in my hands;
and other times thought I would
surely die sitting at the table.
"ThiS went on until about two years
ago when one day did not use any
coffee and noticed was not so nery-
Gus and told my husband about it. He
had been telling me that it might be
the coffee but said: No, have been
drinking coffee all my life and it can
not be- But after this I thought I

but got tired of the hot water and
went to drinking coffee and as soon
as l began coffee again was nervous
again. This proved that it was the
coffee that caused my troubles.
1--WE had tried Postum but had no:
made it right and did not like it, but
now I decided to give it another trial
SO read the directions on the package
carefully and made it after these d.
rections and it was simply delicious,
so we quit coffee for good and the re-
suits are wonderful. Before, / could
not sleep, but now I go to bed 'and
sleep sound, am not a bit nervous now
but work hard and can walk miles.
Nervous headaches are gone, my heart
does not bother me any more like it
did and don't have any of the smoth-
ering spells and would you believe it:
am getting fat. We drink Postum
now and nothing else, and even my
husbands headaches have disap-
peared; we both sleep sound and
healthy now and that's blessing.
