UTAH PROPHET FINED.
Mormon Chiefs Unlawful COhabsta-
tion Costs $500.

Joseph F. Smith, president of the
Mormon church, Friday afternoon APP
pearad in the district cour; before
Judge Ritchie at Salt Lake City. plead
ed guilty to a charge of unlawful co..
habitation, and fine of $500 was inn
posed.
The charge under which the Nor
mon prophet was tried and fined was
based on the recent birth TO President
Smiths forty-third child, born to his
fifth wife.
Earlier in the day counsel for Pres
ident Smith secured a transfer of the
case from the criminal division of the
court, where Judge Armstrong pre-
sided, to Judge Ritchie's division. Az
ter the noon recess, when the court
room was practically deserted, Presi-
dent Smith went before Judge Ritchie,
entered his plea and the fine was i'm
posed.
President Sml,n addressed the
court. He stated that his last mar
riage was in 1884. All his marriages,
he said, were entered into with the
sanction Of his church, and, as they
believed, with the approval of the
Lord. According to his faith and the
law OF the church they were eterna'
in duration. He continued:
I'm the tacit general understanding
that was had in 1890, and the years
subsequent thereto, regarding what
were classed as the old cases of cohab
itation, / have appreciated the magma
nimity of the American people in not
enforcing policy that in their minds
was unnecessarily harsh. but which
ASSIGNED the settlement Of this difficult
problem to the onward progress of
time.

NEGROES WOULDN'T TESTIFY.
Blacks Were Secretive About Affairs
at Brownsville, Tex.

at Brownsville, Tex.
In his summary of reports made by
other officers concerning the negro
troops of the Twenty-fifth regiment.
and of his own efforts to discover the
guilty soldiers, Brig. Gen. Darlington
declares that every means of getting
evidence concerning the shooting was
exhausted. All the men of the three
companies were talked with individ-
ually, and ALL he says, evaded ques-
tions and even refused to discuss the
events at Brownsville which were
known to have enraged the negroes
before the riot.
"The secretive nature of the race
where crimes are charged to members
of their color is well known" Gen.
Darlington says. Under such circum-
stances self-protection. or self-inter-
est, is the only lever by which the
casket of their minds can be pried
open. Acting upon this principle, the
history and record of the regiment to
which they belong, the part played by
these old soldiers in this record were
pointed out and enlarged upon. The
odium and disgrace to the battalion
and it's individual members by this
crime was indicated; the future effect
on the individuals and the battalion A.
a whole was referred to, and finally
the concern of the president of the
United States in the matter, his desire
and the desire of the war department.

Sf,OOO,0OO NOT LOST.
California Committee Says Only Abou,
$1,000 Is Missing.


Owing to the fact that wide publici-
ty has been given the charge that ST.
900, 200 of the relief fund contributed
to San Francisco had been diverted or
stolen, the California promotion COM
mittee has issued statement denying
the charges.
The committee says that of more
than $6,000.000 contributed, but two
packages. containing about $1,000,
went into transit; that representatives
OF the Red Cross society and various
state relief associations have exam-
ined the books and accounts of the To-
cal committee having charge of the
funds and have found that every dol
lar is accounted for and that the books
and accounts are correct.

$4,000, 900 is LEFT OVER.
San Francisco Committee Puzzled to
Know What to Do with It.

With s4,000,00O still on hand to be
devoted to the relief of refugees, it is
stated the relief committee has held
several executive meetings in San
Francisco, Cal, to determine what
shall be done with this money. 1t is
claimed the directors of the relief
work find the need of relief has passed
except in such cases as can be taken
care of by regular charity organiza-
tons.
The establishment of a $4,000, 900
hospital or turning the money over to
regular charity organizations has been
suggested. AS the wishes OF the do
nors of the relief fund may have to be
consulted, no decision has been arriv-
ed at by the relief committee.

II Congress attempts to do at the
next session what ii began to do and
left undone at the last session, there
will be little time left for the consid-
Grafton of new measures which the
President or the members shall see nj
to recommend. The list of matters
which went over from the first session
of the present Congress to be taken
I'D at the second session is formidable.
Here 1t is:
Immiration restriction (in confer
ence). .
Santo Domingo treaty.
Isle of Pines treaty.
Morocco treaty upon which vote
will be taken Dec. 12).
Decision in Senator Smoots case.
Prohibiting corporations to contribute

Establishment of postal savings banks

Limiting working hours of railway EN-
ployes.
IN this list the first place is given to
the immigration measure, for il it be
not first in Importance to the country
it appears to be first in the minds OF
the members, as it was approached al
the last session not only with caution
but with fear, and 1t was made mani.
fest from the action of the House prior
to amending the bill and sending it to
Congress, that some of the members
believed that either for good or for
evil it would have a direct bearing on
their political futures.
1t is generally understood that Presi.
dent Roosevelt in his message will rec
ommend more drastic immigration leg
islation than Is embodied in the meas
ure which the conference committee
will have before it for consideration
when Congress assemblies. The bill as
1t stands has an educational clause
inserted by the Senate, which provides
that all adult immigrants must be able
to read and write. The House struck
out this provision, and either the House
or the Senate must recede from its
position or the bill must fail of pas
sage.
This immigration matter looms large
Many sections of the North are anxious
TO get rid of the undesirable foreigners
They can't get rid Of them, but if aid
comes from elsewhere they can prevent
their continuous arrival. The South
desires white immigration, but of only
one kind-that from the British Isles
and from northern Europe. The South
can protect itself more easily If the ed
ucational test is made part of the i'm
migration bill.
