INVESTIGATING
THE MORMONS
REPORTED OFFICIAL INQUIRY
GOING ON REGARDING POLY
GAMY AT LAIE.

Investigations of the Mormon colony
at Laie are said to be in progress by
the federal authorities, under instruc-
tions from Washington, to ascertain
whether polygamly is being practiced
at Laie, One report has it that Brec-
kons is searching for a polygamous
wife of United States Senator Reed
Smoot. The senator was Investigated
recently by a Senate. 1t was explicitly
admitted at that hearing that he was
not personally practicing pOlygamy
and that charge against him was drop
ped.
District Attorney Breckons would not
say anything about the reported in
vestigation this morning, declining to
answer a question as to wether there
was any investigation or not.

STATEMENTS JURY REPORT AND THE CHARGES
THENI-FOUR SCHOOL PRINCIPALS TESTIFY.

The legislative committee which is
investigating the Department of Edu-
cation held another meeting i'm the
Bungalow this morning, hearing fur
ther testimony on the charges formu-
lated by its subcommittee. Four prin-
cipals of schools were examined and
all the testimony was favorable to the
department. The session was i'm secret
but the general results soon became
known. The only result of the closed
sessions appears to be to put in cir
culation scores of varying reports Of
what took place.
Professor Scott of the High School,
Edgar Wood Of the Normal school,
Mrs. Frazier of Kaiulani School and
Miss Felker of Kaahumanu school We're
the witnesses who testified this morn
ing. All of them denied the charge
that the superintendent Showed indif-
ference to their work, or that the
commissioners of education and super
intendent never visited them. one of
the principals testified to being "in
touch with the superintendent all the
time through oral and other communi-
cations, and all said that he showed
interest i'm the work. The commission

Superintendent Atkinson today sent
a letter to Governor Carter in reply to
the latter's request for his resignation,
an which the Superintendent declines to
resign while the present Investigations
are going on Atkinson says in his
letter that he feels that it would be un-
just to his subOrdinates for him to step
out Immediately, and that as a matter
of fair play he is entitled to a hearing
having demanded a full and open in
vestgatiOn, before he is condemned.
The letter was received by the Cover
nor at about noon today. 1t means that
Atkinson will probably remain at the
head Of the Department of Public In
struction until the close of the present
Investigations, and will then retire to
make way for a successor.
Governor Carter was seen after he re-
ceived the letter, and repeated that he
had no charges against Atkinson him

the department was not satisfactory.
was for the purpose of giving him the
opportunity to take the initiative in re-
signing" said the Governor, "and had
nothing to do with charges. 1t has
been the understanding between my
self and Mr.. Atkinson all along that in
case the management of the depart
ment should become unsatisfactory to
me 1 should give him notice, and that
in such event he would resign.

dent to make the inspectors visits or
do their work.
The witnesses denied that there had
been discharges of teachers without
cause. The proposition of gifts to
teachers, which the Grand jury de-
nounced, was stated by Professor
Scott to be nothing more than presents
Of flowers or leis. As to the sanitation
which was another matter brought up
by the Grand jury report, the testimony
was that it was generally good. The
site of the new normal school was said
to be the best one obtainable though It
was roasted by the jury and a charge"
was made of its location
The witnesses agreed in their testi-
mony that It was best not to have
printed rules for teachers. The lack
of printed rules is the basis of one of
the charges brought against Atkinson.
The testimony this morning was to the
effect that it was not advisable to at
tempt to govern by such rules and that
the present system Of control is better
The Grand Jury report, by the emf
nent pedagogue John Coffee, severely
criticized the department for failing to
have printed rules.
At ten o'clock the committee adjourn
ed to tomorrow morning when another
session will be held. Four more teachers
have been sent for, to testify regarding
the manner of conducting the depart
ment.

The bill of j. d. Avery as clerk of

by the governor, and Avery will have
