still taught pOlygamy, despite the order
of President Woodruff against polygamy
and despite the law of the nation against

For those protesting against the seat

being one of the church's twelve apos-
ties. was sworn to uphold beliefs and
practices in conflict with the laws Of the
nation and therefore was unfit to help
make the nations. laws. Mr.. SmOot's S

that the twelve apostles, Of whom Mr..
Smoot was one, were next i'll authority.
The presidents were elected by the coun-
Gil and the apostles, but he believed and
it was taught that the presidents were
really chosen by divine revelation and
endowed with the authority of the holy
priesthood by authority direct from God.
Mr.. Smith said he was a prophet and
seer and received revelations direct from
God.
President Smith declared that notwitll-

effect that polygamy is not obligatory
upon members of the Mormon church,
he still believed polygamy was right. He
was questioned closely in regard to the
principles of divine revelations. He said
he adhered absolutely to all the teach

that he himself had been visited with
divine inspirations from God directing

FLAMES RUIN A CAPITOL.

State Building at Madison, Wis,
Burned, Causing Lose of $500, 900.
The Wisconsin State capitol at Madi-
son was destroyed by fire Saturday with
loss estimated at $4,000. The State
carries only partial insurance, being in
the process Of changing from insurance

ance. The fire involves the building of

kee.
The flames, which were caused by a
lighted gas jet on the second floor, early
in the day, had ruined the east and west
wings, containing the Senate and As
sembly chambers. and the departments
Of the tax commission, the adjutant gen.
eral, railroad commissioner, State school
superintendent, superintendent of public
property, board of agriculture, State nor
NAL school, commissioner of fisheries, fish
and game warden, State board of phar.
macy, State land Office, dairy and food
commission, State treasurer and commits
sioner Of labor, and were about to at
tack the departments of the Governor,
Secretary Of State, State board of con.
troll and the insurance commissioner.
The local fire department soon had ten
streams Of water playing on the flames
with little effect and the Milwaukee de.
partment was called to render assist
ance.
At s o'clock the flames were bursting
from the windows Of the north and south
wings. the east and west wings having
by this time been destroyed.
The last departments to burn were
those of the Secretary of State and Gov.
ernor, on the south. the Attorney General
and insurance commissioners on the main
floor and the Supreme Court law library
and State library commission on the sec
ond floor. Practically all the valuable
State records were saved, as most of
them were in masonry and steel vaults.
The State treasury had only about $4,000
in cash on hand.
Ex-Gov. Schofield maintained insur-
ance on the building throughout his term
totaling 100000. but the last Legisla,
ture instituted an insurance fund and
directed the States officers to allow the
insurance policies to lapse. In June last
there lapsed $4,000 and in December
the sum of 100000. There is in the in
surance fund at the present time about
$4,000 to meet the loss Of $4,000.

FOES MEET IN KOREA.
HOSTILE ARMIES IN TWO SHARP
ENGAGEMENTS.
Russians Driven Back from Ping.
Yang Rout Japs at Another Point
Forces of Pursuing Cossacks Capture
the Horses Of the Enemy.

Russian troops have clashed twice
with the enemy on the soil of Korea At
Ping Yang a body of Russian cavalry ap-
preached the north gate of the japanese
camp and fired at distance of 1000
meters. The japanese infantry promptly
responded and a sharp fusillade follow
ed, as result of which the Russians
were forced to retire
In the second encounter the Russians
were victorious. A dispatch from Leao-
Tong, town on the Manchurian rail
way some distance south of Mookden,
says that Chinese of the Yalu river re-
port that an advance guard of Russian
cavalry which has penetrated Korea for
a distance of about 200 versts had an en-
counter with a detachment of Japanese
and that the Japanese were compelled
to retreat, leaving their horses, which
were seized by the Cossacks. Gen. Line
witch dispatched cavalry and body of
infantry in pursuit and with an order to
occupy nocthern Korea. On the Ham
Gyeng frontier, northeast of Wiju, a de-
tachment Of Korean soldiers was attack
ed and dispersed by Russian troops.
Russian officers believe they have now
accurate information Of the japanese
plan Of campaign in Manchuria and
Korea. The Japs have large bodies of
troops pear Gensan, on the eastern coast,
and at Chemulpo, on the western coast
of korea. These troops are engaged
in establishing n line Of Notifications
along the banks of the Tsi-Tong river
and are making preparations for the
reception Of che army landed few days
ago at Chemulpo, the intention of the
Japanese being, in the Russian view, to
run series Of Notifications right across
Korea from Gensan to Chinnampo.
These measures the Russians believe
to have been concerted in order to de
fend the middle ard southern parts of
Korea from the Russians should the Jap
anese be unsuccessful on the Yalu and in

terruption. There were, however, heav-
ier dealings at higher prices in cereals
and provisions, and better transactions
in the iron and jobbing lines. The de-
mand widened in the prominent dry
goods departments, millinery and foot
wear, and increased sales were made of
carpets and furniture. The buying of
clothing. woolens and mems furnishings
reached satisfactory average. Prices
Of staple goods were firmly maintained,
and with increasing numbers of visiting
buyers in the market the indications
point toward more activity appearing in
the general demand for supplies. Coun-
try collections have shown well and less

says: Development Of
spring trade is naturally slow, but this
may be fully made up as the season ad-
vances. Business proceeds on a con-
servative basis that promises immunity
from the excesses that precipitated the
recent setback. Manufacturing plants are
gradually restoring idle machinery, and
there Is more disposition to anticipate
future requirements.
Staple commodities are still inflated by
war and manipulation, making it ex-
tremely difficult to ascertain the actual
legitimate situation.
Foreign commerce at New York for
the last week shows a loss Of S2,4S9, 799
in exports and decrease of $2,549,672
in imports, as compared with the same
week last year. Finances abroad were
badly demoralized at the close of the
last week, and several important failures
have since occurred, but there was no
reflection in this country, and money con-
tinued easy.
Violent fluctuations have continued in
the great staples, legitimate influences
upward being supplemented by manipu-
lation, and realizing sales precipitating
reactions. Wide changes from day to
day in the leading commodities indicate
an unwholesome and undesirable situa-
ton that is due to speculation, and that
is calculated to check or divert consump-
tive demand. Wheat led the advance,
and was closely followed by the minor
cereals, but flour was less erratic, and as
