Senator Frank J. Cannon. Editor of The Salt

of fellowship from Mr.. Cannon by the bishops
court at Ogden, resulted to-day in formal order
from the high council of the Weber Stake at Zion.
in Utah. sitting in Ogden, excommunicating Mr..
Cannon from the Church.
The action was based editorials written by
Mr. Cannon assailing the policy of the higher
authorities of the Church Mr.. Cannon admitted
the authorship of the editorials, and insisted that
he should be permitted to prove the truth of the
assertions which he had made. This point the &c
clesiasticaI court declined to concede and the or
ders of disfellowship and communication fol-
lowed
Coincident with the accommodation of Mr.
Cannon was the fling of charges to-day against
Charles A. Smurthwaite merchant of Ogden and
a Mormon of influence, summoning him before the
bishops court to answer for alleged rebelious ut
terances against the authorities OF the Church. and
particularly against President Joseph F. Smith.
Sm,1rthwaite addressed to his bishop appeal for
free speech His appeal demands that the Church
retire from political domination of the State and
from commercialism. that an accounting at the
next general conference in April for all the Church
moneys be made, and that members OF the Church
obey the laws of the land. In conclusion the APP
peal demands an accounting of the property of
President Smith since he became president of the
Mormon Church.

Winnipeg, Man. March 1E--Wholesale prose-

Belief That Empire Has Reachet
End of Financial Resources.

Paris. March 14.-Inquiry to-day at three
banks principally interested in the proposed new
Russian loan brought the response that it had
been decided to postpone the issue. A repre-
sentative of one of the banks said the post
ponement was for such an indefinite period that
it was not likely the issuance would occur for
some time to come. The postponement was at
tributed to the uncertainties of the situa-
ton The Temps says:
1t was quite natural that the Paris bankers
should refuse to sign a contract in view OF the
coalitions in Manehuria and the esltiFe- igno-
rance of the fnanciers concerning the real In
tentions of the Russian government
The paper says the postponement will con-
tinue until Russia's intentions become clear.

ticle says:
Many people consider the adjournment to be
evidence that Russia has reached the end of
her resources
