such persons are and have been fugi-

Endowment House Oath.

Reference has been made to an al
legged reasonable obligation which it
is sought TO claim is a part Of the Nor
mon endowment ceremony. The SEN
ate will understand that these eere-
monies are of a sacred nature to those
participating in them. and are there
fore not divulged. They were insti-
tuted in the Mormon church by Joseph
Smith some time prior to his death, and
are vet given as part of the temple GER
emoniec. being of a religious, spiritual
character they are for the living and
the dead-a part of the Mormon belief
being viearious performance of ordi-
nanees and ceremonies.
There does not exist in the endow
ment ceremony of the Mormon church
the remotest suggestion of hostility or
OF antagonism to the United States or
TO any other nation. They are of a
purely religious nature. wholly between
the person taking them and his God,
and. as with the ritual of various fra
ternaI organizations, regarded as sa-
cred and secret. --.--.s .-..--
"Adxerting to the religious and spirit

Loyalty of Mormon People

The application in this respect, as TO
the loyalty OF the Mormon people,
can be brought home readily We viii
pass by the incident of the Mormon
exiles from Nauvoo furnishing bat
talon for the United States army for
the war with Mexico: the action of the
Utah pioneers in raising the American
aag in the Salt Lake valley when that
was Mexican soil: the fidelity of Utah
to the Union during. tie civil war and
down Ia she period of the Spanish
American war and the insurTection- in
the Philippines. The state of Utah
came into the Union eleven years ago.
Scarcely two years had passed when
there appeared on our national horizon
the cloud of war with Spain Side by
side. shoulder to shoulder, with every
other state in the Union. Utah fur
nished her full quota of American sol
dfers and offered more.
There was no question of religious
distinction or dispute then The Utah
light artillery was composed of nen OF
different religious beliefs. including or
th0dox Iermons. who had partaken OF
their church rituals known as the en-
doNment ceremony. Major Richard

GREAT SEND-0FF r,. FLEET
Several Japanese Stewards Have Been Put On Shore Leave, But Other Japanese Servants Will Re-
 main With the Vessels.

Old Point Comfort, Va., December 13.-
 given at the Hotel Chamberlain tonight
 in honor of Admiral Evans and the other officers of the 16 battleships which sail
 Monday on their notable cruise to the Pa- cflc. The reception and dance in the gaily decorated ballroom closed day given over almost entirely to social func- tions. The ships reported ready last night
 and today there was little or no work to do. Enlisted men came ashore in large | numbers, while on board ship the gunners and ward room officers kept open house. Afternoon tea was served on every vcs-
 sel and impromptu musical numbers were feature of the days entertainments.
 Bobbing launches filled with gay parties
 from shore made frequent trips during the visiting hours.
 Tonights event. the most formal of the
 week, called out the spacial evening dress uniforms of the naval officers, who were all aglitter with gold lace and trappings.
 Army officers from Fortress Monroe add
 ed a bright touch of artillery red to the
 coloring, while flags of all nations deco
 rated the ball room. With regard to the report that all Japanese servants on board the vessels
 of the Battle-Ground fleet have been trans ferred to other ships that are to be left
 behind it was stated on board the flag ship Connecticut today that only eight
 Japanese stewards, whose enlistments ex- pire prior to July l next, have been re- placed by American sailors recently trained for the work. The Japanese fall ing within this restriction have been placed on receiving ships in various navy yards, as it was not desired to discharge them at a distant port and be under the obligations of paying their fares back to the eastern portion of the United States. l Quite a number of. Japanese servants | whose enlistments have year or more to | run are taken along as usual.
 1 The rules laid down by the present Sec | retary of the Navy state that the enlist ment in the navy of persons not citizens of the United States is strongly forbidden, and for this reason none of the Japanese
 can be re-enllsted, and all aliens are thus to be eventually eliminated from the en- listed force.

Report On Naomi Mine.

Bell Vernon, Penn, December 13.-The eoroner's jury Investigating the explosion at the Naomi mine of the United Coal company at Fayette City, Penn, which resulted in the death of S4 miners. was made known today. It reads aF follows:
 We find that the men cam. to their deaths us a resi0t of an explosion of gas and dust In the Naomi mine of the United Coal company. The gas seems to have accumulated from insufficient venti- lation, and was, we believe, ignited from sparks of the electric wires or an open light at some point not definitely To- cated.
 We condemn the use of electric wires on return air currents and we further condemn the use of open lights In all gaseous mines.
 We would recommend that hereafter an air shaft be operated up to where the workings reach a point 4000 feet from the main opening. Further, that the mining commissioner, appointed by the state gov ernor. recommend such amendments to the mining laws, that human beings be better protected and that the present laws be more rigidly inforced"

New Affidavit Filed In the Chi cago Superior Court By
 Depossd Official
A WELCOME SIGN OF
 RETURNING MORALITY"
MT. Fish Reiterates His Allegations Against Hartman and Says He Should Not Be Allowed To
 Control Illinois Central.

Chicago, December Eff I obtain a majority of proxies to be voted at the annual meeting of the Illinois Central Railroad company shall depose Edward H. Hartman as a director,' declared Stuyvesant Fish in an affidavit filed to- day before the superior court. He also declared in the affidavit ito everybody in the country, in the removal of such an individual as Hartman is shown to be-, would be welcome sign of returning morality in the management of great corporations of the country"
 Mir Fish reiterated the statement that MT. Hartman is seeking control of the Illinois Central in the interest of the Union Pacific.
 MT. Fish in his affidavit, which is a reply to that filed yesterday in the name of MT. Hartman and other directors of the Illinois Central, declares he has been a benefactor of J. T. Harahan, now pres ident of the Illinois Central. He asserts that he saved Harahan from dismissal several years ago when Hartman and George A. Peabody declared that Hara- han had outlived his usefulness to the company.
 MT. Fish sets forth that there was perfect harmony in the railroad company until the winter of 1904-5 when Harri- man and Peabody sought the establish Inlent of' an executive committee to which discretionary powers were to be delegated. He declares Nin the affidavit that he in- cured additional enmity when he re- fused to become a party to a report white washing" the officials of the Mu- tual Life Insurance company.
 The assertion is also made that Harri- man and Peabody broke faith with Fish in 1906 when they agreed that a man in- dependent of any faction was to be elect ed to the directorate to fill the vacancy caused by the death of William Nor ton Grinnell Hartman, he says, at- tempted to secure the election of Henry w. Deforest, an attorney of MT. Harri- mans, who was also a director of the Southern, Pacific, which Is dominated by the Union Pacific.
 Mir Fish declares in his affidavit that since 1877 it has been the custom of the railroad to loan it's funds to officers or directors of the railroad or to firms ot, which they are members, or to corpora tions of which they are officers.
 Ms. Fish insists in his affidavit that Hartman and Peabody were among those who took advantage of the custom of the company in loaning these funds. He de- clares that all of his loans were recorded on the books of the company and that the collateral was good and sufficient.
