Smoot hearing this morning j. w. N
Whitecotton, an attorney of Provo
Utah, testified as to political condi-
tiOns In Utah.
No effort is made by the church,
he said, to restrict the political liber-
ties of the people generally or of indi-
viduals, but 1t claimed the right to
receive tithes from men elected to i'm
portant church offices. He did not
think the church tried to keep its
members from engaging in politics
without its consent, but objected TO
church officers employing time in
politics which belonged to the church.
He thought the decided sentiment
of the Mormon people in Utah is hos
tile to polygsmy. Women went to
polygafny because they thought the
plural marriage religious duty.
Smoot Anti-Polygamist.
The witness said Reed Smoot first
entered politics with the peoples
party. but came to ally himself with
the republicans on account of his
with wool interests. Smoot
opposed polygamy, and was looked
upon as the young man in Utah to
redeem Israel.

The details of the negotiations at

drawn by Japan. The premier tried to
escape from the palace, but was pre-
vented by Japanese gendarmes. He
still persisted in his refusal to sign the

A FRIGHTFUL HOLOCAUST
rs Many More Injured in n Glass
cow Lodging House Fire.

Glasgow, Nov. 20.-The most terri.
BILE fire that has occurred in Great
Britain for many years broke out here
in a cheap lodging house for men in
Watson street, and resulted in the loss
of 80 lives and the severe injury of
many others.
The flames were first noticed on the
fourth floor of the building, which was
occupied by $50 men. An alarm was
raised and the firemen responded
quickly, but flames and smoke were
then issuing from most of the win
dows on the fourth floor. An extraor-
binary eel was created by a process
sion of almost naked men rushing out
Of the entrance to the building and
against their frantic efforts to escape
the frenen had actually to fight for
admission.
The local authorities had to be called
upon to supply the rescued men with
clothing and warm meals. Owing to
their migratory habits and the absence
of permanent homes, many of the dead
will never be identified.

ONE HUNDRED LIVES LOST
Wreck OF the CrOss-Channel Steam
er HiIda Near st. MeIO, on the
Northern Coast of rance

London, Nov. 20.-The Southwestern
railways cross channel steamer Hilda
was wrecked off st. Malo, on the north
coast of France, and it is believed that
100 or more of her passengers and crew
were drowned. The Hilda left South
ampton Friday night for st. Malo, with
considerably more than 100 souls on
board. Her passage was greatly de-
layed by a fog in the channel, and
when nearing st. Malo she ran into a
severe snowstorm, apparently missing
her course, and fOundered on the rocks
off Jardin lighthouse, three miles from
st. Malo, Sunday morning.
The cOmpany's steamer Ada, out
ward from st. Malo, rescued five of the
passengers and one of the crew. These
are now or the way to Southampton.
There is an unconfirmed report that
20 had been saved. The crew num-
bered 26 and there were about 100 pas
sengers, all Frenchmen, the majority
being onion dealers from st. Briae and
the neighborhood.

ACTIVITY is THE KEYNOTE
Only D~ravyback to the Fullest De-
velopmen of the COuntry's BUSH
ness is Railway Congestion.
New York, Nov. 18.-Bradstreet's

New York, Nov. 18.-Bradstreet's
weekly review says:
Activity is still the keynote of the
industrial and commercial situation.
Colder weather and the coming Christ
mas holidays have caused a heavy dis
tribution in practically every section
of the country save in the northwest,
where the rather high temperatures
and railway congestion prevent the
fullest development. Railway earn
ings are enormous, but the widespread
blockades are assuming a serious phase
and tend to curtail production in some
industrial lines. Manufacturing lines
are remarkably active. Consumption
Of iron and steel is proceeding at an
enormous rate, with no apparent sign
Of a let-up in the immediate future.
Outdoor construction work is being
conducted on an enormous scale, and
a shortage of labor is reported from
many sections. Commodity prices
steady at close to the highest. Collec-
tons on the whole are classed as good.
