CLAIM POLYGAMY
IS DISAPPEARING
SO SAY WITNESSES IN SMOOT
IS HEARING
SENATOR ENTERS A DENIAL
Mr. Whltecotton Says That No Men
In the State or Out of It Stands
, Better Morally Than the
Defendant
By Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, D. C, Jan. 13.—
Three witnesses for the defense in
the Smoot case today testified that
polygamy was dying out in Utah so
rapidly that there was no need of pros
ecution. It 'was declared that the
younger Mormons are all opposed to
polygamy, and that if they thought It
was taught there would be a revolution
In the church. It was admitted that
Senator Smoot got the consent of the
church to become a candidate for sen
ator,, but only In the form of a leave
of absence from his church duties,
and it was declared that he could hav<s
been nominated and elected without it.
J. W. N. Whitecotton, an attorney
of Provo, Utah, resumed his review of
political affairs in Utah when the hear
ing' opened today. No effort was made
by, the church, he said, to restrict the
political liberties of the people gener
ally, or of any Individual?, but it
claimed the right to receive the time
and energies of men who have been
elected to important church offices. The
deduction he drew was that the church
■ did not try to prevent its members
from engaging In politics without the
consent of the church, but that when
certain members accepted important
church offices the church had a' right
to prevent such members from accept
ing other offices that would take their
time. Mr. Whitecotton said he never
■ had seen any difference In business be
tween Mormon and Gentile, but he
thought the Mormon voters adhered
.more closely than the Gentiles to their
party affiliations. ,'. .. \
" "I think the decided sentiment of the
Mormon people in Utah is ' hostile to
polygamy," said Mr. Whitecotton.
;■• • No Polygamists in Office , ■.-■< .< <* *
.*-. Speaking, of the character of. stats
officers, . Mr. . Whitecotton < said there
had not been a polygamist elected
since statehood. . ■; •
. "What would j be the j effect socially
and politically on an official who. in
stituted proceedings In prosecution of a
polygamist?" asked Attorney Vail
Cott. /•'.'.".'• ■.■'. '. ;.
■ "It would make no difference in his
standing in the community." .
"What would be the effect if he came
up for office?" ;■ . . .
"It probably would help him in his
vote. It would be felt that he was a
man of courage and had nerve to go
ahead and do his duty," replied Mr.
Whitecotton.
Chairman Burrows asked why it re
quired "nerve" for an official to do his
duty, and the witness explained this
by giving the condition in which such'
prosecutions would leave women an i
children.
. "What is the sentiment in regard to
the polygamous families?" asked the
. chairman.
The witness replied that, "it was an
awful ■ condition."
"A lawful condition, you say?" in
terrupted the chairman.
"No, an awful condition. One that
we wish that we were out of and we
do not know how to get out," said Mr.
Whitecotton.
' "Then these people, these polyga
mlsts, are left without interference,"
remarked the chairman.
Mr. Van Cctt asked when Senator
Smoot first took an active part in poll
tics in Utah. £
| "He was in politics when- I went to
Utah. He was in the People's party."
"After the division came what part
did : ho take?"
Had Republican Heresies
. "Well, he had ' some Republican
heresies and- he joined that party. He
.was in the woolen mill business," said
the witness. .
"What other heresies did Mr. Smout
show?" asked Senator Foraker. ,
"Well, he developed a habit of al
ways voting the Itepubllcan ticket, und
it was. unpleasant to us Democrats to
have .too many of those fellow;)
around."
"Along the line of Mr. Sinoot's early
heresies, did he oppose polygamy?"
asked Mr. Van Cott.
"Yes, sir; he was looked upon as the
young man in Utah to redeem Israel."
' In regard to the political aspirations
and the attitude of the people, both
Mormon. and Gentile, Mr. Whitecotton
said: ,
. ' "Pour' years ago Mr. Smoot was
talked of for governor and when he
abandoned the race tor that office it
was understood that he hud in.-, eye on
the eenatorshlp. He was the logical
and : in my judgment the inevitable
candidate. Before he became an apon
tie he was talked of us a candidate for
senator. After he was elected an
apostle and he became a candidate for
senator, a . campaign was waged in
i which ■ the Issue was 'Smoot or not
Smoot.'"

C. E. Brockmeyer of the Missouri
Star Declares Adolph Busch
Contributed Large Cheeks
at Different Times
By Associated Freis.
ST. LOUIS. Jan. 13.— The senate and
house committees of the Missouri leg
islature appointed to investigate tho
statement of campaign receipts and
expenditures filed by Chairman T. K.
Nledrlhghaus of the .Republican state
committee, and Republican caucus
nominee for United States senator, met
separately today. The hearings were
open to the public. .
The closest Investigation was directed
to the charge contained in the resolu
tion of Representative Oliver Grace
that the $21,000 reported by Chairman
Nledringhaus In his own name was In
reality contributed by the brewery in
terests of St. Louis. .
T. K. Niedrlnghaus appeared before
the house committee, which took a re
cess to enable him to frame a reply to
the Grace resolution.
William P. Ltghtholder, deputy re
corder of deeds, appeared before the
senate committee in answer to a sub
poena ordering him to produce a cer
tified copy of the expense account filed
by the Republican state committee. Ho
took the original copy, which showed
as its largest item the lump sum of
$21,231, contributed by Neidrlnghaus.
The next largest sum was for $5000,
credited to R. C. Kerens. The total
of the contributions was given as $57,
483.75. The report was filed by T. K.
Neidringhaus, acting treasurer.
C. E. Brockmeyer, publisher of the
Missouri Star, who was a clerk at the
Republican headquarters, gave testi
mony relating to" the , charge that St.
Louis breweries contributed the $21,000
which Chairman Niedrlnghaus credited
to himself in his report of the receipts
and expenditures of .the campaign., . .
He testified that Adolphus < Busch, a
prominent .brewer, ,. had given Nied
rlnghaus at one time before the elec
tion _a check for $2500, and at another
time $5000, and that '■ •' he - contributed
$5000 after the election toward liquida
tion of the deficit which existed. ■ ■' '
Chairman Niedrlnghaus told him, he
said, that. Otto Stifel of the St. Louis
Brewery association had arranged to
contribute an amount equal to that
given by Busch.
Mr. Niedrlnghaus made a complete
statement, denying the allegations.
During the campaign, he said, the lia
bilities of the state committee had run
up to $31,000, with no money in the
bank, and he was held personally re
sponsible for the debt.
"About this time," continued Mr.
Niedringhaus, "Setjator Fairbanks
came to St. Louis, and on the request
of Adolphus Busch, who is a personal
friend of the senator, a dinner was
arranged at Mr. Busch's house, at
which were ex-Senator Mason of Illi
nois, Congressman Bartholdt of St.
Louis, Otto Stifel, Senator Fairbanks
and myself.
"During the dinner I explained that
I had been refused contributions by
prominent Republicans and stated: ' 'If
I had $25,000 I would guarantee that the
state of Missouri would cast its elec
toral vote for Roosevelt and Fair
banks.'
"Mr. Busch then said: 'I am willing
to join with yourself and Mr. Stifel to
guarantee this $25,000. I will assume
half that guarantee if you and Mr.
Stifel will assume the other half.' i
"I immediately announced- that I as
sumed my share and Mr. Stifel agreed."
In reply to a question Mr. Niedrlng
haus stated that he was under no ob
ligations of any kind on account of
this guarantee to use any influence
whatever to affect legislation 'in Mis
souri.
. Mr. Niedrlnghaus further explained
that the deficiency of $31,000 was re
duced to $21,000 by collections and that
the latter amount was taken care of In
connection with the agreement between
himself, Busch and Stifel.
Mr. Nledringhaus stated to the com
mittee that he did not. consider the
$25,000 pledged by Busch, Stifel and
himself In the light of a contribution
to the state campaign fund, as had
the money been later secured from
other sources it would have been re
funded to them.

SEES DANGER OF
CHINESE UPRISING
RUSSIA ISSUES WARNING TO
POWERS
Claims That Japan Uses Neutral
Islands as Naval Base— Slav
Troops May Now In
vade China . . .
By Associated Press.
ST. PETERSBURG, Jan. 14, 2;lj'a.
m. — Russia's formal notification to the
powers of the imminent danger of a
general uprising In China as the result
of a Japanese propaganda! which will
threaten all foreign interests, coupled
with a general protest against China's
repeated violation of neutrality In con
nection with Japanese operations, is
really a warning to the powers that
Russia regards the situation as ex
tremely serious, and holds that the
time has come for joint action by the
powers for the protection of their own
Interests.
For herself, Russia feels that Japan
has broken the pledge she made with
respect to Secretary Hay's note at the
beginning of the war, and further per
sistence in this course will, she holds,
absolve her from further observance
and leave her. free to act for her own
protection.
The present note followed two pre
liminary warnings addressed to the
powers, one in October and the other
in November. It sets forth breaches
of Chinese neutrality, including the
Ryeshlteliil case and also the use of
the Mlao Inlands', belonging to China,
as a base for the Japanese fleet; the
constant dispatch jof contraband from
various Chinese ports, the employ
ment of Chinese soldiers In the Japa
nese army and the hiring of Chinese
bandits to attack Russian communi
cations.
Should General Ma or any. Chinese
troops now move, Russia will feel free
herself to cross the Liao river into the
neutral zone. As for the powers Rus
sia believes the situation has become
serious '-. owing to the stimulus given
anti-foreign agitation in China by the
fall of Port Arthur. ", , .
In.. diplomatic circles considerable
Importance Is attached to the note, and
in the general opinion it Is designed
to Induce Secretary. Huy to initiate
steps to bring joint pressure to bear,
In order to prevent the extension -of
the zone of hostilities and to compel
China to adopt drastic ■ measures
against the present agitation In the
interior of that empire. •' ■:,■

At the corner of Second- and South

hands. Poteet says that he held up
his hands when commanded to, but
that he was struck from behind and
fell. . For some time after that he
knew nothing. He says that he was
robbed of $49 and a valuable gold
watch. He was without money or
valuables when searched at the police
station. He had a bank book show

local bank.
While not dangerous the wound on
Poteet's head is a bad one.
