that Joseph F. Smith, as the alleged rep
resentative of the Lord, is using funds
to speculate in sugar stocks, for exam
pie; to build up electric lighting, power
and street railway monopolies; to force
the faithful to take out life insurance in
his personally Endorsed company and to
insure their homes in his company; to
buy their salt from him; to patroniZe his
railroad, to deposit their money in the
banks which he backs with the "offer-
ings to the Lord" to buy their clothing,
groceries, hardware, furniture, shoes,
headwear, and, in fact, everything else
which they may desire, from institu-
tions in which are invested, in his name,
these Offerings to the Lord"
Rumors of fortunes made in stock
speculations and in other ways by Presi-
dent Smith and others ION the inside"
have made large numbers of the faith
full more desirous than ever for an ac-
counting of the moneys they have
turned over in all confidence to the self
designated servants of the Almighty
Having made sacrifices in the divine
interest, they are inclined to insist on
figures which will show whether the
dividends from these various enter
prises are being used in the interest of
the Lord.

Weather Man So Often Wrong It Was
"a Sure Thing to Bet Against
Him.

This is story of a weather almanac
prophet, who may be called Thompson,
tells on himself, says the New York
Press. While recently visiting Jersey
town he went into store to buy cigar.
He made his purchase and was about to
leave the store when the proprietor re-
marked:
ITS pity you have no umbrella, for
it's going to rain soon."

tion," replied Thompson. 1T looks like
fine weather to me-

bet dollar it will rain before noon"
Very good, I'll call in again to-day
and collect" said Thompson. After
leaving the store he had gone only few
blocks when he was well drenched by a
sudden shower. Thompson was struck
by the mans prediction, and being al
ways intent on the interest of his alma
nae he went back to the store and was
received by the proprietor with broad
brin.

Mormon church to take his seat among
the country's lawmakers, a popular
wall arose throughout the country that
he should be barred from that body
There were those of the apostles that op-
posed the mixing of church with politics
and forecasted the opposition that would
arise from his election, but Smith was
favorable to Smoot's candidacy and as
is well known he was easily elected.
When the committee was appointed by
the senate to investigate the charges of
Mormonism preferred against the new
ly-elected senator, many churchmen
in high standing were called to Wash
ington to testify. and among others was
President Smith. The general trend of
the testimony presented showed that al
though polygamous cohabitation had
been abolished as a rule, those of the
mormon faith were still ruled by the law
of the church, rather than by the law
of the land, or in other words, that the
law of the church is supreme.
Smith Confessed Perjurer.
1t was only after the passage of the
Edmund's law that Utah was admitted
into the union as state. Under this law.
which was subscribed to by President
Smiht and the apostles of the Mormon
church, plural marriages and polyga-
nous cohbaitation were forbidden. But
on the stand before the senate commit
tee on privileges and elections In the
Smoot investigation, President Smith
frankly confessed that the pact with the
nation had been broken; that his oath
was travesty; that his obligation as
an apostle and as hlerarch of the church
was subterfuge.
The opposition to the seating of Smoot
was aDly conducted by Robert w. Tay-
ier. former representative from Ohio,

members of the church for his own en-
richment; of violating the laws of the
church; of committing crimes against
the government; of reasonable teach
ing, and of forsalling true spiritual life
for the worship of mammon."
Accusers accommodated.
Goaded into anger by these attacks,
President Smith has sought to retaliate
by communicating persons who might
question his acts.
Already former Senator Frank j. Can
non, son of President George Q. Can
non, one of the most celebrated leaders
of the Mormon church, has been cut off
for daring to express opinions in criti-
cism of the Mormon head.
Charles A. Smurthwaite one of the
leading business men of Utah, high
priest in the church and man whose
character has been above reproach, has
been disfellowshipped for charging
President Smith with bad faith and de-
manding an accounting of the church
funds.
He is fighting the proceedings against
him, maintaining that, If given an CO.
portunity, he will prove every statement
he has made against the president of the
church.
Furthermore, he has put to test the
various asseverations of the church to
the effect that polygamy and polyga-
nous cohabitation are no longer counte-
nanced by filing charges against one of
the elders of the church, Hyrum II. God
dard, on the ground that this elder is
violating the revelation against polyg-
amy by living with two wives.
The hierarchy is seeking to evade the
issue by raising technical points, but it
is being continually put into the position
of showing bad faith all around, and is

strained to make explanations in the
tabernacle.
These explanations have involved him
in contradiction, and there is much Won
derment among the adherents of his
church whether the statements he made
under oath when testifying before the
senate committee on privileges and
elections in Washington are to be be-
lieved, or whether his public statements
on the platform in the tabernacle, as the

self-styled representative Of God on
earth, are to be given credence.
When testifying in behalf of Senator
Reed Smoot, Joseph F. Smith declared
under oath that he had never received a
revelation. 1t is a cardinal principle
of the Mormon faith that the head of
the church is in constant receipt of com
munications direct from God. When he
repudiated having received these mes
sages the devout among the Mormons
began to wonder if it were possible that
he could be all that he was supposed
to be,
Admits He Lied.
The mutterings became so general
and so insistent that the president of

members
Discomfort Grows.
According to impartial observers, the
discomfort within the church is growing
rapidly, and it is said this same dlscon-
tent is manifesting itself in a way to
hurt the president in the most sensitive
place-the pocketbook. Already it is
stated that the tithing is falling off
heavily.
Thinking men among the Mormons
are backing up Elder Smurthwaite's de-
mand that an accounting be made for
the tithing. They object to giving up
tenth of their incomes as an Offering to
the Lord" when it is being demonstrated

tiles in Utah against the political activ-
ity of the church has been so great that
the hierarchy is fearful of the next is

been crystallized in the American party
of Utah.
Entrenched behind the wall of state

lenses on the part of the Mormon
church, the hierarchy is bidding def

Warrants were issued this morning
at the instance of Wong Kiu for the
arrest of Jesse p. Makainai, d. Kupi-
hea, Bob Samoa, Hopili Kaauwai and
the always wanted John Doe and
Richard Roe" all of them being accus-
ed of larceny.
The particular act with which the
accused are to be charged is an alleg-
ed stealing of fish from Kalihi fish
pond this morning and from the story
told the trouble seems to have arisen
over a long-standing dispute as to the
ownership or lesseeship of the pond in
question.
Makainai, who, by the way, is the
well known Home Ruler, leased the
pond some years ago, but recently, It
is alleged, he failed to keep up the
payment of rent and the pond was
therefore released to Wong Kin. Ma
tives supposed to be working under the
orders of Makainai, continued to take
fish from the pond and this morning

WAS A DAY OF
GRAVE DISASTER
TWO JAPANESE BATTLESHIPS
MINES WITHIN FEW HOURS.

VICTORIA, b. c., June 21.-Long-
oppressed details ere received frcm
JeTan by the Empress Of China, which
reached pot yesterday morning, OF
the sinking Of the Japanese ba;teship
Yash ma before Port Arthur On May
Is. The disaster took place within FIVE
ninUtes of the loss of the battleshiD
Eatsuse, from the same cause-a mine.
When the Yashima struck the mine
the Hatsuse and the cruiser EosninO
we're sinking. Captain Sakamo , OF
the Yashima steamed at full spec for
q Japanese base sixty miles away, but
when nearing the base she made wa
ter so fast that hope of saving her was
abandoned. The crew We're ordered to
the Kasag and Totsuta which were
conveying the crippled battleship, and
the Yashima went down in 20 fathoms.
The tops of her masts can still be seen
above water. The squadron which ac-
companed the Yashima when she was
destroyed consisted of the Hatsuse, "
shima, Shkishima, Kasagi and Totsu-
ia, three battleships and three cruisers.
The Shikishima was also in danger on
going to the assistance of the Yashi-
ma, but withdrew to safety because
of warning signals from the Yashima
by wireless telegraph. The mines
which sunk the three Japanese vessels
were laid by Captain Wren of the
Bayan, now a prisoner in Japan, on the
night of May IA.
Advices were also received of an &C
cident at Toxic arsenal on May 90, ex-
ploding one of the magazines and re-
sulting in one hundred killed or
wounded. The arsenal is in the north
ern section of Toxic, in a thiclSly popu-
lated district, and was working night
and day, employing several thousands.
