IN DEFENSE OF SMOOll
TWO SEPARATE BRIEFS TO BE
 FILED MONDAY.
Counsel for the Utah Senator Will Take Up and Discuss Different Fea- . lures of the Case Now on
 Trial.

Washington, Feb. 4.--Separate briefs will be filed on Monday with the Sem ate committee on privileges and eIec- tions by A S. Worthington of Wash ington and Waldemer Van Cott, of Salt Lake, counsel for Senator Shoot, in the investigation of protests against the latter's retaining his seat.
 Mir. Worthington deals with the question whether 1t requires a two" thirds or a majority vote to vacate Senator Shoots seat. He contends on principle and on precedent that when Senator Shoot was sworn in the ques- tion of his qualifications was passed once for all, and that he can be re- moved now only by a vote of expul- sion and only on the ground that since he was elected to the United States Senate he has committed some crim- inal offense and that to do this will require a two-thirds vote.
 The endowment ceremony, polygamy and the alleged interference of Nor mons in politics are discussed by Mir. worthington. He insist that the con- stitution of the United State prohibits the government making any law respec- ing religion. It does not forbid the State from doing so but leaves the matter to the States themselves to de- termine.
 Mir. Van Colt in his brief discusses the political phases of the situation al- most entirely.
 MT. Van Cott said: The contention of the Protestants is Idle to the ef- feet that Senator Shoot should be un- seated because he believes that Alan is capable of receiving revelations from God. If the objection is good, Utah should not have, been admitted as a State, because this belle of the Nor mon people was known before state hood. If the objection Is tenable. no Gentle in the United States who be- lieves in mans capacity 10 receive a revelation could become a United States Senator. The reorganized church of Jesus Christ. of Latter Day Saints and many people of different religious persuasions believe in mans capacity to receive revelations,%
 In conclusion, Mr. Van Cott argues that Senator Shoot should be encour- aged, as he Is opposed to the practice of polygamy and stands for obedience to all the laws for good citizenship; and if he Is busted, 1t logically fol- lows that no Mormon can be a United States Senator. that Mormons will only be at to vote for Gentle Senators and can not themselves be Senators"

John AIitcheIl's Visit.

The United Mine Workers of Ameri- ca, Alabama District No. 20, are in a happy frame of mind over the visit to be paid to the district by their national president John Mitchell, whose arrival is scheduled for tomorrow morning. 4 committee of district officers and prominent leaders in the organization will be at the depot in the morning to give the leader hearty welcome to the district. No program has been ar- ranged as yet for the attention to be given the president. It is expected that President Mitchell will be escorted to several of the mining camps in the district where the men are out on strike. It is not improbable that the big leader will make some effort to bring about a settlement of differences in this State and end the strike which has been on now since July. This is not the first time that President Mitchell has been in the Birmingham district. He attended a convention of the1Alabama coal miners few years since and made one of the best ad- dresses delivered by a labor leader here.

INSTALLED MIR. WEST
NEW PASTOR OF HIGHLAND PARK
 CHURCH.
PreNbyterlnn Bliaistera of Montgomery Participated ln the Impressive servfce--Unfon Meeting of
 Christian EndeavOreEs.

With cordiality and good wishes, Rev. J. T. West. the new minister of the Highland Park Presbyterian Church. was installed in his pulpit at 7:s0 o'clock last night by the Presbytery of Montgomery. which had met in the pretty little suburban house of worship to take part in the exercises and wish God speed to the minister and his church.
 The rainy. disagreeable weather, of course, kept many persons away who would have attended, but as 1t was, the church was we'll filled and the interest displayed was of the most encouraging nature.
 The installation services were con- 6ucted by a committee of the Presby- tery composed of Rev. c. W. Patterson, D. D., pastor of the First Presbyterian Church, Rev. N. L. Anderson, D. D., pastor of the Central Presbyterian Church. and elders Bradford Hardie, John W. Durr, IT,, and O. E. Ament.
 The sermon. a brief but eloquent ad- dress on 'The True Glory of the Church." was preached by Dr. Patter- son in his usual forceful style, and at the close of his discourse he charged the congregation in the duties and ob- ligations they had in supporting the church and it's pastor.
 pr. Anderson then delivered the charge to the pastor and spoke feel ingly and earnestly.
 During the service, excellent music was furnished by the combined choirs of the First Presbyterian and the Gen. tral Presbyterian churches. The song service of this body of singers added much to the beauty of the services
 Preceding the installation of Mir. West in the church. a union meeting of the Christian Endeavor Societies of the Central Presbyterian. First Pres byterian and Highland Park Presbyte- rian churches was held under the direc- torship of w. F. Fry and was on the whole a most successful meeting.
 Rev. J. T. West, the new minister, came to the city recently from Centre vile, where he gave up an excellent charge to accept the call of the High land Park Church. He is a young man about 80 years old, and unmarried. He was at one time director of the Selma Y. M. c. A.
 The Highland Park Presbyterian Church was organized about year ago with twenty-one members. and the com gregatlon now numbers thirty-five, showing the progress making by the church and It's members in that sec ton of Montgomery.

There were no in- dications of robbery and the authorities have a suspicion which is being follow ed up and arrests may be made in the next day or two. Beardon was 40 years of age and had big family. He lived near the Helen Best ore mines, operated by Robinson & Co. and was evidently on his way home last night when attacked. The weapon used on him was sharp knife or razor as the mans neck was severely gashed from behind the left ear across the jugular vein. He did in few minutes after the injury was inflicted. He had very little, if any time, to defend him. self. It is believed that he was walk ing with his gun cooked when at- tackled. Coroner Paris Is making an investigation.

Robinson and his wife, who is fine looking woman, employ ed strong counsel here and protested going back to Hot Springs. Habeas corpus proceedings were instituted, but the judge remanded the prisoner to the custody of the local authorities. An appeal was taken. This morning the judges in the criminal court and the attorneys interested were gathered and efforts made to straighten out the appeal so that the officer from Hot Springs could carry the man to Arkan- sas. Before additional papers could be secured by the attorneys for Robin sin he was aboard a train speeding towards Hot Springs. Deputy Sheriff Smith stated while here that the mer- chant who had been touched" in the rug deal was very anxious to get the man back to Arkansas and was assist ing the officers in tracing him.
