Travellers have noticed that5 their
check numbers run into six figures, II

whole system of distribution. The ex.
Dressman who handles the baggage for
its home distribution hands In to the
baggage agent his mass Of collected
checks. all sorted on that basis, and
the baggage handlers hustle the stuff
out with very little delay.
Suppose he has only a few checks
from an incoming local train. They
may read 3s4741, 3s42o1, 3s4599, 3S4-

RELIGION CLASSES IN CACHE

Salt Lake City, Feb. 3.-Elder
William A. Morton has just com.
pleted a tour of Cache county in the
interest of Religion class work. In
speaking Of his trip he expressed de-
light with the progress Of the work
in that stake. He held meetings ev-
cry night last week in various wards
Of the stake, and in all Of them rec
commended that the classes Of the
different wards he consolidated so
that only one building, the nearest
one available to the school house,
need be prepared and only one set
of teachers be required and general
ly to make the work more efficient
Many of the class members have been
lost, he said by requiring them to
go several blocks out OF their way to
to meeting houses in the winter time
Over fifty conventions Of Religion
class officers have been held in con
nection with the regular stake con
ferences since the beginning Of the
school year Elder Morton said.

WOODROW WILSON,
The Controversy
The controversy over Mr.. Pindells
nomination grew out Of the publica-
ton of what purported to be a letter
from Senator Lewis of Illinois, to
Mr.. Pindell, urging the latter 10 ac-
cept the post for year and saying
he would be relieved of responsibility
for important nominations and could
travel freely in Europe. Senator Lew
is charged that the letter was for
gerry and Secretary Bryan later In a
public statement, revealed that the
circumstances were that Pindell had
said that he cou d only accept the
post for n year, because he did not
feel that he could be absent from
his business for any longer period.
No mention, it was said was made Of
any diplomatic task or duties.
A senate committee Investigated
the correspondence and recommend
ed the confirmation of Mr.. Pindell.
With the Russian Enthusiastically
again open there was gossip In Of
fetal circles about the likelihood Of
Charles r. Crane of Chicago being
named. Mr.. Crane was uppermost I'm
the presidents mind early last year
for the post.
| Mr.. Crane took luncheon with the
| president few days ago, but IL could
not be learned whether the ambassa-
dorship was discussed.

In a Letter Tells President Wilson
He Feels Sure There Should Be
No Controversy Over
Appointments

Washington, Feb. 3.-Henry NJ.
Pindell, of Peoria, Illinois, who was
recently nominated and confirmed as
ambassador to Russia, htG declined
the appointment, according to a let,
ter to the president, made public at
the White House yesterday
Mr.. Pindell wrote President Will
son that although the senate had IN
vestigated accusations in connection
with his appointment felt never
theless that no controversy OF any
kind should surround the appoint
ment of any ambassador as 1t was
liable to be misunderstood abroad.
The president in a letter of regret
accepted Mr.. Pindell's declir.ation.
Mr.. Pindelrs Letter
The correspondence made public at
the White House follows:
Peoria, Jan. 2S, 1914.
Dear Mr.. President: ! deeply ap.
preciate the honor you have done me
in nominating me ambassador to Rus
STA and the very great compliment
paid me by the senate in confirming
the nomination by unanimous vote
