BIXBY IN A BAD LIGHT.
Report of Bonaparte and Woodruff Says
Officials Are Dabbling Too Much
in Land Matters.

Washington, March S.-The report Of
Charles Bonaparte and Clinton r.
Woodruff on their investigation of tn )
alleged abuses and irregularities in the
public service of the Indian territory
under the control of the interior de-
partment was submitted to congress
yesterday by the president The report
stigmatiZes the conditions in the terri
tory as involving Immediate danger
OF ruin to the genuine Indian popula-
ton and profound discredit to the
United States, exciting reasonable dis
content on the part of all classes of the
population and demanding prompt and
drastic remedies on the part of con-
gress."
1t says that the connection of Tams
Bixby, chairman of the committee to
the five civilized tribes, with the Can
adian Valley Trust company, impairs
his usefulness as public official and
he should resign Immediately if he is
to retain his commissionership. His
investments in what are known as
"possessory rights" in townsite lands
are stamped as yet more Objectionable.
Indian Agent Shoenfelt is eXonerated
from all the charges made against him.

DID LITTLE DAMAGE.
laps lombard Vladivostok to Draw
Fire from Forts.
Russian Squadron Was Not In the Port and
the Attack Will Probably Be Resumed
-Four Sailors and Engineers
Wife Killed.

London, March 7.-OnIy Russian re-
ports on the bombardment of Vladi-
vostok have yet been received and
these give no indications as to whether
the Russian squadron is still there.
According to report from Toxic the
squadron was seen on Gensan, Korea,
last Thursday, but on this point there
is no reliable information. Specula-
ton, however, mostly inclines to the
belief that the Russian squadron is not
in port at Vladivostok, as neither the
official nor the other reports of the
bombardment mention Russian battle
ships.
Official dispatches received here
concerning the bombardment of Vladi-
vostok by a Japanese fleet yesterday
afternoon do not mention any Russian
losses, but private adviees say that
five were killed, four sailors and the
wife of an engineer. 1t is apparent
the Japanese were afraid to risk ex-
posing their ships to the plunging fire
of the land batteries, and it is consid-
cred probable here that the attack was
really for the purpose of drawing the
fire of the Russian forts, compelling
the Russians to disclose the position
and caliber of their guns and for the
purpose Of ascertaining whether the
Russian squadron is in port. If this
was the object of the Japanese, it is
believed to have failed signally, as the
batteries did not fire a shot, and if the
squadron is in port it could not be
seen from the Japanese position in the
bay of Ussuri on account of the high
land which rises from the coast on that
side obstructing the view of the har-
Dor.
Two Emperors Renew Allegiance.
Toxic, March 6.-The emperor Of

securing permanent peace and express
ing the sincere wish that the protocol
recently concluded between Japan and
Korea will increase the intimacy of the
two countries. The Korean ruler ap-
pears determined to maintain friendly
relations with Japan.

of only three or four per cent in polyg-
amy, as Mr.. Smith had said, there were
about 23A per cent of the Mormon
population of an age enabling them to
be polygamists, living in that state in
1890. Senator Dubois gave it as his
opinion that there has been no ma
terial reduction in the number Of po-
lygamists since 1890.
Mr.. Smith in reply to an inquiry said
Reed Smoot became an apostle April g.
800. He declared that when Mr.. Smoot
became an apostle, the status of most
OF the polygamists had been fixed many
years before. In answer to questions
Mr.. Smith said Senator Smoot had
never advised against continuance of
polygamous cohabitation.
In regard to convictions, Mr.. Smith
said there have been none since the
manifesto of 1890; that all of the con-
victions under the Edmunds law were
while Utah was territory. A list OF
the first judges elected since Utah was
| a state showed that the former terri
| torial judges were chosen without eX-
ception and that all of them had for
merly sent Mormons to prison for po-
| lygamous cohabitation. The purpose
of this was to deny the inference tha
the Mormon church dominates tht
courts.

AGE OF SIERRA NEVADAS.
Prof. A. c. Lawson Estimates That 5000.
900 Years Have Elapsed Since the
Great Upheaval Took Place.

University Of California, March s.
A bulletin just issued by Andrew c.
Lawson, professor of geology in the
University of California, on the geo.
morDhogeny of the Upper Kern basin.
discloses interesting facts as to the
geological formation of this region
Incidentally the age of the Sierra
Nevada mountains, the oldest part of
California, may be calculated from
Prof Lawson's conclusions. According
to his estimates. nearly 5000, 900 years
have elapsed since the beginning of
Quarternary time, when the first great
uplift took place, and raised that part
of the mountain range about $500 feet
Prof. Lawson then divides quarternary
time into two periods, that of the evo-
luton of the high valleys, following
this upheaval, and that of the cutting
of the present canyon system of the
Sierra Nevada, which followed a sec
ond and greater upheaval.

THE JAPS ARE NEAR.
Fleet Is lowering About the Vicin-

A Report from Toxic Says the Russian
Squadron Has Been Caught Outside the
Harbor and Japs Are Waiting
for Its Return.

London, March 8.-There Is not a
word yet from Japanese sources con-
corning the Vladivostok ombardmenL.
is that the Russian fleet is as effectively
bottled up at Vladivostok as at Port
Arthur. Though the latter place has
not been attacked for some days, the
ships there have not shown the slight
est sign of daring to go out of the har-
Dor. This also suggests confederation
OF the reports that the outlet is consid-
erably hampered by the vessels the
Japanese sank there.
Russia's Big Force In Korea.
Toxic, March Sit is believed that
the Russian Vladivostok squadron is
now in the vicinity of the mouth of
the Tunen river, engaged in covering
the movement of troops from Possiet
bay to the valley of Tumen. Russian
scouts are reliably reported to have
penetrated south as far as Kiung Sung.
The earlier Russian movement into
northeastern Korea was regarded as
a diversion, but is now appears that
considerable force participated.
