SAYS HE DOES NOT
 DEFEND POLYGAMY
kIM1ALL STATES THAT HE SIM FLY DID NOT AGREE WITH THE WOMEN OF EAST, WHO WERE ADVOCATING RACE SUICIDE.

Salt Lake, Utah. February 2-J. G. Kimball general secretary of the first council of seventy of the Mormon church. who was credited in a special dispatch from Logan to the Salt Lake Tribune on Sunday last with defending polygamy and declaring before the Cache Stake conference that Congress would be unable to stop the practice, today issued a signed statement in which he declares that the report attrbuting to him any defense of the practice of polygamy is false. He asserts that he made no reference to tho subject of polygamy. either openly or covertly, by inference or inuendo. What he did say, he alleges, was to refer to the following language of resolutions recent ly adopted by body of women in the east:
 Women in the east want Congress to stop this thing Cbringing children in poor families). Congress will have quite a time in trying to prevent poor people hav- ing large numbers of children. These women want to put the practice down and legalize race suieide.'
 Continuing, Mir. Kimhall says:
 T then bore my testimony that Nor monism is true; that it had found it's way into my bones and into my blood, and that I felt it in every fibre of my being and that 'Mormonism cannot be destroyed and the more they try to destroy the more it will grow. l believe in it and I will live in it.

Senate Disp|eased With Rivers
 and Harbors Measure
SNAYNE CASE CAUSES TALK
Rumor Has 1t That Numerous Federal Judges Will Be Summoned to Tes- tify Regarding Their Ex-
 pense Accounts.

Washington. February 2.-(Special)- With the report of the diplomatic and consular bill, the House has started all the major supply bills of the session. It is likely that an urgent deficiency bill will come in during the last of the month, but the routine work of the appropria- tions and other standing committees is about completed. The first urgent defi- ciency is so far the only measure which has passed both houses and received ex- eoutive approval. Three bills are in con ference-the legislative, the fertilization and the army bill. Pending before the Senate is the Indian Military academy, District of Columbia and agriculture bills. Before the House is the postoffice, naval and diplomatic bills. .ssfs
 Before the week is out it is expected that Chairman Burton will report to the House the rivers and harbors measure the contents of which have already been made public. While the bill has not yet passed the house, there is already con- siderable gossip over on the Senate side concerning it, as the measure as 1t will be reported, will pass the House in exactly the same form. There is every indication that the Senate is going to add sufficient millions to the grand total to offend Rep resentatve Burton, the house rivers and harbors leader. The bill will then go to conference with it's final passage very doubtful.
 Many of the senators believe their states unfairly treated in the House measure, and they will accordingly demand of the Senate commerce committee, which has charge of the measure, that more liberal appropriations are granted.
 The evident intention of the upper branch of Congress to provide for in- creases, of course, renders more doubtful than ever the bills becoming law The administration is indifferent as to it's fate, owing to the treasury deficit and would gladly welcome during the last hours the appearance or Tom Garter, whQ-fo years aso defeated the bill

Hearst Attacks Williams.

The newspapers of Representative Will liam Randolph Hearst of New York, have been attacking Representative John Sharp Williams during the last few days because Mr Williams could not bring himself to see that the railroad bill in- troduced by Mir. Hearst was the demo- cratic measure deserving of caucus sup port Hearts friends claim that Repre- sentative Williams has appropriated ex- tracts from the Hearst bill. A fellow member mentioned the matter to MT. Will Hams in the House today The democratic leader said:
 stealing Hearst's thunder would be petty larceny, wouldn't it?''
 Tt would not be larceny at all" was the reply of a member standing near.'' The language of the law is that you must steal something of value.

Will Summon Federal Judges.

Counsel for Federal Judge Charles Swayne, whose impeachment trial will begin on February P, will summon. it is understood, as witnesses, number of circuit and, district federal judges. It is expected that their testimony will be used to bolster up Swayne's claim that f. is customary for federal judges to send ir their expense accounts as $10 a day while holding court out of their dis tricts. The practice is said to be a gen eral one and Judge Swaynes lawyers want the country to know that he is not the only one who "has spent s1O a day. In addition the proceeding will be a spectacular one.
 It is understood that practically all the federal judges west of Washing ton will be called on to testify. If this is a fact the number will include Judge Jones and Judge Toulnan of Alabama
 However, it is not known that they have been called out of their districts to hold court and it may be that they can give no testimony on the point in question

St. Petersburg, February 3.-(3:15 a. m)-Detailed reports filed at the head quarters of the St. Petersburg military district. where minute records are kept, show that in breaking up the demonstra tions of January p, the thousands of troops on guard, only as0 actually fired.
 These troops represented eight differ ent units from a squad of eight to a company of 12O, and the total number of ball cartridges expended vas 1902, The authorities point out that this indicates that there was no reckless or general volleying. The numper of wounded in the hospitals today is POS.
 The report of Maxim Gorkys release apparently either is incorrect or if true, he was released on the -omise to leave St. Petersburg without the slightest de- lay. He had not returned home up to late hour last night. The friend with whom he lives and who was permitted to visit him yeste- lay afternoon for the first time since his arrest, told the As- sociated Press that he found the au- thor still in solitary confinement in the St. Peter and St. Paul fortress.
 The novelist, whose real name is not Maxim Gorky which is a pseudonym meaning Maxim the Bitter" but Alex Pyeshkoff, did not expect release for some time and did not know whether he would be brought before the court for trial or deported by administrative or der. He philosophicaliy proposed to de- vote his period of Imprisonment to learn ing the English language and remedying other deficiencies in his education. He begged his friend to procure text books of English and German, natural science, etc. At present he speaks only Russian.

Omnibus CIaima Bill.

A meeting of the conferes on the omni- bus claims bill will be held next week to consider this measure, which has passed both House and Senate, the amendments of the latter body now being in dispute. As agreed in the House. the bill carried about $SO0000 dollars. The Senate added about 2,5OO000 to the bill and unless it agrees to taking off most of this amount there is little likelihood of it's being en- acted into law. The civil war claims of a score of Alabamians are contained in the bill.

SAYS II WILL KILL PARTY
Mir. Richardson Supports Provision Favorine Railroads and Takes ls- sue With Statement Made
 By MT. Moon of Tenn.

Washington. February 2.-The postoffiee appropriation bill was still under discus sion when the House adjourned today. The provision for special mail facilities on trunk lines was retained in the bill. A mild sensation was created by MT. Baker of New York. who said the voting of mail subsidies was the way to kill the democratic party.
 Mr Baker denounced certain members of his party for having foisted Judge Par ker on them as their candidate for Presi- dent, saying that his candidacy had been initiated and manipulated by monopollsts.
 In supporting the railroad provision, Mir. Richardson of Alabama took issue with tho statement of Mir. Moon of Tennessee made yesterday that it was a Southern railroad subsidy demanded by those who wanted special mail facilities. and in auired of MT Moon if he by implication charged that those favoring the idea did so because it was a gift to the Southern railroad. MT. Moon disdained to answer, but instead yielded five minutes to MT. Hamlin of Missouri, who in denouncing the appropriation said It meant simply the hurrying of patent edieine adver- tisements to the southern states. Messrs. Morris of Nebraska. Finley of South Car olina and Macon of Arkansas spoke in similar vein, the former injecting some humor into the discussion by stating that if the Southern railroad was an eleemo- synary institution the appropriation might Ina lo6 nh nth if wa a hank rupt 1t might be called charity and if it was a religious corporation 1t might be called a contribution for missionary pur- poses But, he said, by whatever name 1t may be called there was no necessity for it.

Calls 1t a Steal.

Addressing himseli particularly to southern members, Mr. Macon eharae- terized the appropriation as a steal, and told them If their particular sections could not get along without special mail privileges they ought not to be allowed to get along.
 MT. Oyerstree- of Indiana is closing the debate, declared that any man who voted for the bill was compelled to vote for subsidies because the bill was full of them.
 "Gentlemen." he said "cannot afford to take umbrage at the word subsidy !" Then turning to Mir. Norris of Nebraska, who moved to strike out the provision for special facilities, Mr. Overstreet reminded him that every rural free delivery route was a subsidy. He insisted there was merit in the proposition for special fa- cilities.

He said the republican party was showing today the shrewdest politics 1t ever showed Tt is." he said. amid a storm of republican applause, giving rope to the southern democrats and they are hanging themselves" He declared that the only reason the southern demo- crats were members of the House was because of the negro question. Referring to Judge Parker MT Baker spoke of him as having been foisted on the party by men like those who supported this sub sidy.
 MT Baker said that Thomas r. Ryan went into the southern states and told the democrats that Bryan had prevented the democratic party from winning for eight years, saying: Come with us and we will deliver the goods Other mo- nopolsts of the democratic party sang the same song and the southern demo- crats listened and became responsible for the results of the last election.
