Washington. Dec. 20.-ApoStle John
Henry Smith of the Mormon church
was recalled as the first witness. Mon
day, in the Senator Smoot inveStigd-
ton and was cross examined by 4. S.
Worthngton. counsel for Mir. Smoot.
Apostle Smith said he had known A.
Mcdonald. who died during the present
year. ndwho was charged by one
witness with having performed plural
marriage in Mexico.
1T had come to the attention of Pres
ident Lorenzo Snow that Mcdonald
had been exercising the right to marry
or seal persons in plural marriages."
said the witness. president Snow in
structed me to call Mcdonald to ac-
count. l went to Mexico, but did not
learn that any plural marriages had
been performed. l never have heard Of
any president of the church authoriz-
ing plural marriages since the mani
festo''
Denial was made by the witness sthat
the Mormon church owned a majority
of stock in the sugar manufactures in
Idaho. He was examined concerning
his participation in politics in Idaho
and his testimony chiefly was in con-
tradicton of the testimony gwen by
Charles H. Jackson, chairman of the
Democratic state committee, who testi-
fed, Saturday. He emphatically de-
MED that he had said there had been
revelations that a certain political
ticket should be supported.
Apostle Smith, however. admitted
taking an active part in bringing about
the repeal OF the territorial test oaths
which practically excluded Idaho Nor
mons from voting. He had made polit-
ical speeches in Idaho in 1902, but ap-
pealed to the voters as a citizen and
not as a Mormon.
When Mr.. Worthington concluded
his cross-examination Senator Dubois
asked Apostle Smith If an apostle
could take a plural wife now and re-
tain his standing.
/"Unless perchance he were handled
by the laws OF the country" was the
response.
"You mean that some Gentle would
have to make complaint"
mo sir, If submitted to his council
think 1t would deal with him. know
it would"
Pressed for more definite answer
the witness said If the fact Of a plural
marriage should be demonstrated in
the courts, an apostle contracting such
a marriage would lose his standing.
Attorney Taylor for the Protestants
examined Apostle Smith concerning
the alleged marriage Of Apostle Abram
Cannon and Lillian Hamlin, charged
by witnesses to have been performed
by President Joseph Smith on the high
seas. near Los Angeles. in 1896. The
witness said he asked President Smith
If he had performed such ceremony
and the reply was that he had not. He
admitted that if the president Of the
church had wanted to perform q cere-
n:ony OF that kind he could do so. The
witness said he had serious doubts
whether Abram Cannon had married
1dl44n Hamlin. He said he had not
