roo MANY LAWS.
Senator Elkins Predicts Attitude of
 Congress on Railroads.

Washington, Oct. 16-Senator Elkins, chairman of the Senate Committee on Interstate Commerce, to which is re- ferred all railway regulation legisltaoin, follows the lead of Speaker Cannon in predicting that there will be no import ant extension of "ny policies by Con- gress this winter. MT. Elkins, who is in town, says he thinks Congress should enact no further railroad legis- lation this winter.
 Federal incorporoti"n and regulation of stock and e,l--s issues may be we'll enough" he observed, q sup pose they will come in time. But let us wait a little and see what the laws we now have will do. There has been wrong doing. Whenever the President investigates he turns up rottenness in management. Nevertheless, there are many honest railroads and many hon est railroad men.
 The risk in building a railroad is large. Those putting their money into, such ventures are entitled to good re- turns. Some other kinds of business enterprises are paying even 50 or 100 per cent. but there is no outcry against ! them. Now everybody seems discour- aged, although the country badly needs more railroads. We need 2,oOo miles more of railroad in West Virginia, but railroad building there is at stand still.
 Tt is more important to enforce the railroad laws we now have" added the senator, than to enact any new Jews" ,"

WAS INcITING TO RIOT.
Korean Editor Placed Under Bonds
 on JapaR's Complaint.

Seul, Korea, Oct 16.-E. T. Bethel, q British subject, editor of the Korea Daily News. and also of the Daihan Shimpo, tho latter printed in the Ko- rean language, appeared to-day before the British consular court here on a summons charging him with using the columns of his papers to incite Bo- reans to riot. Articles were read be- forethe court containing bitter criticism of the preparations for the reception of the Japanese crown prince, and tho consul bound MT, Bethel over in heavy security for his future good conduct, and also announced that repetition of his offence would result in his security being forfeited, and in his probable de- portation.
 Mir Bethel has been the leader of the anti-Japanese movement here. and has maintained a steady campaign against Prince ltos undertakings. relying on extra territorial rights for his protee- tion from prosecution. The British privy consul, however, recently issued an order covering the conduct of news papers by British subjects in foreign countries, and it was under this order that the proceedings were taken against MT. Bethel Incidentally. it s believed here that the order was the re- suit of q request made by the Japanese government for the purpose of reaching Mir Bethel, whose attitude towards the Japanese authorities caused Japan to make formal representations on the subject through the British ambassador at Tokio, Sir Claude M, Macdonald.

He HOLDS TO PoLYGAMY.
Elder Roberts Says Christian Min
listers Are Fit for Pink Teas.

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, June ia
feature of the controversy which has been
waged between the ministers of the Evan
gelcal churches and the Mormon priest
hood was the address delivered in the taber-
nace by Elder Brigham H. Roberts, once
excluded from Congress because of his
polygamous practices. He spoke in reply
to an open letter published by the Minis
terial Association. Elder Roberts frankly
declared that the church had surrendered
not one iota of it's belief in the principle of
polygamy, but countenanced no polygamous
marriages while they were forbidden by
law. OF himself he said:
II stand exactly where / did ten years
ago, namely, that though the church pro-
claimed against the continuation of this
lationship, though the state proclaimed
against it, neither the church nor the state
may absolve the moral obligations l am
under or release me from that moral duty
Roberts characterized the Christian min
listers as neither male nor female, and said
they were better qualified for pink teas
than craftsmanship. All of the high Off
Gals of the church, including President
Smith, were present.
