AS MANAGER FOR "REDS'
j. Ed Grille May Succeed Ned Hanlon
As Leader of Cincinnati Club.

Now that it has been definitely
decided that Ned Hanlon will not
manage the Cincinnati team next
season, J. Ed Grillo, Toledo's man
ager last year, has been advanced as
the most probable selection for the
place. Grillo is now in Washington
writing sports on paper there, but
he would drop the pencil to assume
the reins of the Red chariot. Ed
Ashenback also has been mentioned
but the joker's poor success with the
st. Paul team puts him out of the
running. They are beginning to say
that Ashenback has found the A. A.
water too rough for him.

CREAMERY men

Railroads and Express Com
panieS Combine to Skim Off
Profits of the Business.

Washington, Oct. 5.-Charges of discrim-
ination and conspiracy are made in
petition filed with the interstate COM
merce commission TO-DAY by the Fairmonr
Creamery company, and several other
creamery companies against number of
Northwestern and western railroad COM
panies, and the United States, Adams,
American and Fargo Express COM
panies. The complaints secured an in
junction from the federal court at Chi
cago, restraining the railroads from put
ting increased rates into effect until the
matter is passed on by the interstate COM
merce commission. The petitioners have
an aggregate capital of s.. 00O, Co., They
produce annually 100000 pounds of but
ter, the net profits on which is asserted
to be less than one-half a cent a pound
1t is asserted that the proposed increased
rates are unjust, unreasonable and dis
criminatory and will take absolutely all
the profits from the creamery business.
The charge is made that the Illinois Cen
trail, the Rock Island, the Chicago Great
Western, the Burlington and the st. Paul
in order to retaliate against the complain
ants "conspired TO destroy and terminate
competition among all said defendants re-
specting the transportation of cream and
also to increase the tariffs for transport
ing cream and so to discriminate against
the complainants as to drive them out
of business"
They ask that the proposed rates be de-
clared illegal.

preach the gospel, yet deny the per-

Other speakers were Apostles Rud-
ger Clawson, whose address was de-
voted largely to statistics; George A.
Smith, who also spoke on the subject
of marriage and children, and George
A. Richards who spoke of the progress
of the church.
The crowd in attendance at yester-
days exercises exceeded those of the
first day by many thousands. 1t is es-
timated that. at the afternoon session,
approximately 1900 persons were pres
ent. Today will be the chief day Of
the conference. so far as crowds go.

will be on the tabernacle grounds this
afternoon. Overflow meetings will be
held in the Assembly hall and on the
lawn surroundings the information bu-
reau, from the steps of which ad-
dresses will be made.
First and foremost I'm interest both
for Mormon and Gentle will be the
selection Of an apostle to fill the va
cancy caused by the death of George
Teasdale. The general expectation is
that the selection will be made today.
The work of the committee appoint
ed TO secure accommodations for those
who were unable to find shelter result
ed in relieving the congestion almost
entirely, and 1t is believed that, even
though the influx of visitors today be
exceptionally large, all will be cared
for and none will suffer inconvenience.
AS a matter of fact, it is said that
the trouble incident to the accommoda-
tons for the crowds was due mostly
to a lack of information on the part
of the strangers in the city.

CITY WAS ON VERGE
OF A MEAT FAMINE
Big Shipment From Omaha Is De-
layed and Restaurant Men
Scramble for Steaks.

For a time Friday and Saturday Salt
Lake was on the verge of meat famine.
A shipment of meat from the Cudahy
Packing company of Omaha was delayed
in transit and did not arrive until last
evening. The shipment was due to arrive
in Salt Lake the early part of the week.
With the conference and state fair crowds
to care for. the restaurants were almost
entirely out of meat.
An enterprising restaurant keeper went
to all the small meat markets in the city
early Friday morning when he saw that
his supply of meat was running low and
purchased all the steaks and loins that
he could secure. From o'clock Friday
evening until last night all of the leading
restaurants in the city were out of por-
terhouse and tenderloin steaks and their
supply of other meats was low
Al the meat markets the situation was
almost as critical. The principal mar
kets were all sold out of steaks and the
supply that they could secure from the
local packing houses was not equal to the
demand.

In bitter denunciation of Bishop
Spalding's alleged attack on the Nor
mon church, in stern defense of the
principles of the faith for which he
spoke, in commanding language of
which he is a master, and in unre-
stricted rebuke, Orson Whitney, one of
the apostles of the Church of Jesus
Christ of Latter-day Saints, yesterday
afternoon scored the chief dignitary of
the Episcopal church in this state.
Apostle Whitney spoke for nearly an
hour and half. The address of Apos-
tie Whitney was easily the feature of
chief account in connection with the
services incident to the. fall conference
of the Mormon church now being held
in this city.
Briefly put, Apostle Whitney took
exception to an alleged utterance of
Bishop Spalding on Sept. %, in which
the Episcopalian divine took to task
various denominations, creeds or cults,
including the Mormon church. The
latter, Bishop Spalding declared to be
menace, an organization which
strikes death TO progress and one which
has no regard for the purity of the
home.
In his defense. Apostle Whitney ex-
pressed regret that a man holding the
high Office of bishop in the Episcopal
church should have uttered such be-
liefs. If he did utter them, Mr.. Whit
ney was quite sure that he was either
gravely mistaken or entirely misin-
formed.
Apostle Hyrum NJ. Smith took the
prod to what he characterized hypo-
critics and takers, aiming particularly

SUCH PREACHING AS THAT OF BISHOP
CAUSES BLOODSHED, SAYS WHITNEY

ed. Mr.. Whitney would not have been
aStonished had these utterances en1a-
mated from a political newspaper.
There are in Utah, he said, partisan
newspapers from which one may not
expect anything but falsehood. but"
he added, surely we have a right to
expect better things of the ministers
of the Son of God-and they call
themselves Episcopal bishopsr'
During the course of his address
Apostle Whitney referred to the evil
which must result from such preach
ing as that of Bishop Spalding, saying
that often it resulted in not only ex-
pulsion, but in bloodshed and murder.
THE word murder may be lurid Ian
guage," said Apostle Whitney, but I
am speaking by the record, and I know
whereof l speak. Not in one case, nor
two cases, or three cases have these
things resulted not only in the inflic-
ton of suffering on innocent people,
expulsion, but in the murder of inno-
cent men, whose blood will cry out at
the judgment day."
Brands Charges a Lie.
Apostle Whitney read from history
paragraph of comment on Marcus
Aurelius in his relations and his treat
ment of the Christians. That Roman
emperor did not make himself ac-
quainted with the cause and character
of the Christian and, failing so to do,
did not understand them nor their re-
ligion. There is some excuse" said
the speaker for the ignorance of men
at a distance but what excuse is
there for those who, living in the
midst of the MormOns, mingling with
them as their neighbors, to revamp the
WORKOUT campaign phrases no doubt
brought here with them?"
Apostle Whitney then took up in ser
latin form the charges contained in
Bishop SpaIding's sermon. In the first
place" the apostle said, philosophy is
the fundamental truth and Mormons
ism is that truth. Joseph Smith, the
prophet, was a seeker after truth and
God answered his prayer and gave him
more God and his son, Jesus Christ,
came to him in person and taught him.
1t was only after Joseph Smith. seek
ing the truth, could not grasp the mys-
terry of the trinity, that God was only
a spirit and that he was without a
body or parts or passions. And when
the prophet had been given the light to
see he was ordered to bring order out
of the chaos that eXisted-what need
of the scores of separate churches and
denominations, all In confusion"
1.-THE charge made against the Chris
lions in Rome was that they were
seeking to undermine the state. and is
repeated today against the Mormons.
Those charges, that the Latter-day
Saints seek the overthrow of free in
situations is a lie, a lie 50 black that
no words can characterize it

SCANDALS.
TAKES TRAIN FOR CHICAGO

Leavenworth, Kan, Oct. 5.-Ex-Cap-
tain George w. Kirkman, late of the
Twenty-fifth United States infantry
was discharged from the United States
penitentiary here this morning. He
Immediately announced that he had
written book dealing with the inside
of army life. Kirkman attempted to
get the book printed at a Kansas City
publishing house, but without success.
The book will deal with scandals in the
army, and 1t is stated affects several
well known officers. Kirkman left this
afternoon for Chicago, where he says
he will lay the manuscript before a
publisher. He says Marshall NJ. Kirk
man. vice president of the Chicago &
Northwestern railroad, his uncle, is to
finance the publication.
Comes of Good Family.
Kirkman is a member of one of the
best known army families in the United
States. In 1905, while stationed at FIT
NiObrara, he caused the suicide in
Omaha of an officer of his regiment,
because of remorse on account of his
wife's relations with Kirkman. Kirk
man was tried shortly after this and
convicted of conduct unbecoming an
officer and a gentleman. He was SEN
fenced to two years Imprisonment and
dismissed from the army.
Previous TO this. in 1900, while cap
tain of the Twenty-third infantry, he
was tried in Manila on a charge of
offensive conduct toward the late Arch
bishop Chappelle, while en- route to the
Philippines on transport.
Saved by Technicality.
The trial was ordered by General
Harrison Grey Otis, then in command
of the army in the Philippines. Kirk
man was found guilty and sentenced
to dismissal from the army. He ap-
pealed, however, contending that the
sentence of dismissal was illegal on the
ground that at the time it was ap-
proved by General Otis a state of war
did not exist IN the Philippines, in
which the United States was contend
ing.
The constitution gives a general that
power only during a state of war. This
view of the case congress concurred in
and within three months from the time
of Kirkman's dismissal he was restored
TO his former rank.
