UTAH PIONEERS
TRAVEL IN STATE
CROSS PLAINS, BUT NOT IN
PRAIRIE SCHOONERS
Picturesque Party From Utah Guests
' of Senator W. A. Clark, Presi.
dent of the Salt Lake
Road
Traveling In a magnificent train over
the route covered, fifty years ago in
"prairio schooners," thirty pioneers of
the Mormon church arrived in Los
Angeles yesterday. For many of
them it Is the first trip to the coast
since by order of the prophet Brigham
Young they came to this valley in
1851 to establish a fort and trading
post.
Grizzled and bowed though many of
them are, they are renewing their
youth and enjoying this outing as a
child enjoys a vacation from, school.
The members of the party are the
guests of Senator W. A. Clark, presi
dent of the Salt Lake road, and Sen
ator Clark means to give the remnant
of the old guard of pioneers the very
best time possible.
Among the party are representatives
of the highest councils In the Mormon
church, and nearly all were Intimate
friends and acquaintances of Brigham
Young, the greatest president of the
Mormon church. There Is one old man
among the number who played the
violin at several of the -weddings of
the Prophet Young; this is Hop Pend
ler, the first man who ever played a
vaoiin in Utah.
Other picturesque members of the
party are: Nathan Tanner, the oldest
Mormon in Utah. He built what Is
now the oldest house in San Bernar
dino, in 1851. He came to the west with
the advance guard of the little army
of pioneers in 1847. He was a member
of the company with Brigham Young.
A. Milton Musser has for many years
been chief scribe in the historian's
office. Musser went to Utah in 1848.
W. C. A. Smoot, Junior and senior,
are nephew and brother respectively of
United States Senator Reed Smoot.
Mr. Smoot Jr, has charge of the party.
Phil Margette, tho oldest and best
loved actor In Utah, was not one of the
pioneers, properly speaking, but as he
was engineer on the first train that
ran Into the state of Utah, it wns
thought by Senator Clark that he de
served a place in the party.
To Ruel Barnes belongs the distinc
tion of being the subject of the first
daguerrotype taken in the west. His
picture was taken by that process
in 1860. He was commissioned lieu
tenant in the war against Mexico, for
which Brigham Young for the Mormon
church furnished 500 men.
Charles Crismon built the first mill
in the San Bernardino valley in 1854.
It was a flour mill and stood for many
years near the site of the present city
of San Bernardino.
• Other members of the party are
James Oakley, William C. Mitchell,
William Robins. A. C. Gemlll,. George
Speers and wife, Elliott Welldon,
George Harrison, Mrs. George Merritt,
Thomas Dallin. J. Lawson, Nathan
Tanner, James Hardy, James A. Bean,
A. L. Hale, Benjamin Cluff, W. W.
Cluff and wife, S. L. Ensign, S. S.
Worthington and W. Price Barnes.
The party is being entertained at
the Lexington hotel. A program em
bracing many of the trips around Los
Angeles, has been prepared for the
pioneers.
.Today at one o'clock the party will be
taken over the beach lines of the Salt
Lake, in a parlor car provided for

After the religious rites had been
performed the bride led the way,
dressed in white and wearing a veil,
walking between Emperor William
and her father. Duke Frederick. Six
bridesmaids followed, and then came
the bridegroom in the light blue and
gold uniform of the Ninth Hussars,

BODY IS DEDICATED
TO CAUSE OF SCIENCE
GEORGE W. CATT'S CORPSE TO
BE DISSECTED
He Was the Husband of Mrs. Carrie
Chapman Catt, Former President
of the National Woman's Suffrage
Association
riy Associated Press.
NEW YORK. Oct. 11.— In accordance
with the provisions of his will the body
of George William Catt. husband of
Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, former
president of the NHtional Woman's
Suffrage association and president of
the International Woman's Suffrage
association, will be dissected for the ad
vancement of medical and surgical
knowledge. Mr. Catt died on Sunday
nt his home. 205 West Fifty-seventh
street, following an operation for ga!l
stones nnd fi special permit was issued
by the health department and the body
taken to Cornell university and Belle
vue Hospital Medical college yesterday
afternoon after the funeral at his home.
Various portions of the human body
have been willed to medical schools
from time to time, and it has not been
unusual for men of science to will their
brains to such Institutions, but this
Is the first time In the remembrance
of doctors In this city that a man of
erood position and generally normal
conditions of health has given his en
tire body for the advancement of med
ical knowledge.
The study of Mr. Catt's body is ex
pected to be of unusual benefit, be
cause, except for the disease from
which he died, it was in all respects
normal and healthy. This disposition
of the body was directed by section
six of his will, which read:
It is my wish that my body be given
to a medical college in which anatomy
and surgery are taught, nearest to
the place of jny demise, to be used In
such a manner as will be most to the
advancement of medical knowledge.
Mr. Catt, who was a civil engineer
of national repute, and a member of
various scientific societies here and
abroad, drew up his will in 1897. After
discussing the matter with his wife
and frequently expressing his regret
that medical colleges seldom had an
opportunity to dissect the body of a
healthy, intelligent man, he gained her
consent to bequeath his body to
science.
Mr. Catt wns born In Davenport,
lowa, in 1860. He was graduated In
civil engineering from the lowa State
college in 1882. In 1893 he organized
and became president of the New York
Dredging company which engaged in
various harbor improvements for the
United States government, for private
parties along the Altantic and gulf
coasts, including a seven-mile ship
canal at Sablne Pass, Tex. He organ
ized later the Atlantic, Gulf and Pa
cific company, an association of en
gineers and contractors of which he
was president. The company has a $3,
000,000 contract for harbor work in
the Philippine Islands and $2,000,000
worth of coast work.
Mr. Catt was married to Mrs. Carrie
Lane Chapman of Seattle in 1890. They
have no children.

ARGUMENTS ON
IN EMMONS CASE
JURY ADDRESESD BY JOHNSON
AND SEYMOUR
Lawyer for Defense Finishes His
! Speech and District Attorney Opens
1 for the Prosecution — Makes
Dramatic Appeal
By Associated Press,
i SACRAMENTO, Oct. 11.— In the Kin
mons bribery trial before Judge Hart
this morning Grove L. Johnson re
sumed his argument to the jury for the
defense. . The courtroom was crowded
to its full capacity and several times
the sheriff had to call for order when
the auditors responded by laughter to
Mr. Johnson's Bailies.
The attorney went rapidly over the
whole case as presented by the testi
mony to illustrate his claim that neither
Jordan, Bunkers nor Lee had been cor
roborated.
He Implored the jury to discover, if
It could, any testimony corroborative
of cither Bunkers, the confessed per
jurer and felon, or Jordan, the alleged
go-between. He assailed the Continen
tal Building and Loan association as
the real plaintiff in the case, the in
stitution he said being corrupt and
debauched and operated In the Inter
est of schemers; that Corbin had over
drawn and defrauded the company.
Mr. Johnson declared that there was
ample cause for Investigation of that
company and held that it feared inves
tigation and entered into a scheme to
forestall Investigation and stand off
exposure by turning upon the defendant
with an accusation that should serve
to distract attention from its own cor
ruption and cover its own villainies.
At 3:15 District Attorney Seymour be
gan the concluding address to the Jury.
He opened with a tribute to the state
and the manhood and womanhood that
had huilded the commonwealth. "But a
shame had come upon it when a sena
tor was brought ,to the bar of Justice
for wantonly violating his sacred trust.
"Lee, the negro," he said, "was not
an accomplice, but an accessory after
the fact, and does not require corrobo
ration. In legislative bribery the ques
tion Is what did the boodler intend, not
what did the briber contemplate.
"Was Emmons a senator and did he
receive money to bar and defeat in
vestigation of the building companies?
These are all the things needful to
be proved and they have been proved
beyond the shadow of a possibility of
a doubt," Baid the speaker.
"Shall the cost of the trial weigh
against the honor and life of the state?
Shall Emmons be acquitted because
other men walk the streets who are
guilty and go unpunished? Shall all
murderers go free because some are not
detected? Why should not Sacramento
be the moral clearing house of the
state? It is the capital and here the
laws are made and it must meet its
responsibilities.
"Wife and child are pleaded to
save Emmons, but hearts had to be
sealed against it, that duty might be
done and corruption punished, no mat
ter how hard it may be."
At this point the court adjourned
until tomorrow morning.

BEHRING DECLINES RICH
NEW YORKER'S OFFER
HE WILL ACCEPT NO AID FROM
PRIVATE INDIVIDUALS
Declares He Has Not Kept His Discov.
cry Private, but Will Continue to
Choose the Persons to Whom He
Will Communicate It
By Associated press.
NEW YORK, Oct. 11.— The New
York cable regarding the offer made
by one of the wealthiest men of that
city to present $50,000 to Dr. Behrlng
if he would make known his treatment
for the cure of consumption, has ex
cited great interest In Paris, says n
cable dispatch from Paris to the Her
ald. A Herald correspondent called
on Dr. Behring, who said:
"I may say nt once that I could not
entertain an offer of the kind in such a
form.
"I have made it a principle never to
accept any aid of this kind from private
individuals.
"Secondly, I could not submit my In
vestigations to the control of a commit
tee, however eminent, as I could have
no certainty that Its members had the
necessary qualifications as bacteriolo
gists to conduct such a delicate task.
"It would be another thing if the of
fer came from the American govern
ment or from some organized scientific-
Institution and was rr.ade in recogni
tion of the services I had rendered to
science and humanity by the discovery
of the Berums against diphtheria and
tetanus.
"It is, however, a mistake to imagine
that I have kept my new discovery
secret. This is not bo. But I have
chosen and will continue to choose the
persons to whom I make the communi
cation. My only desire Is to have such
collaboration as I know will advance the
matter.
"It Is only by leaving such delicate
Investigations in the hands of duly
qualified men of science that progres-j
can be made."
