News; Gossip and Speculation
From the National Capital
r- Washington Bnresa ef Tb Journal.) ::..
Washington, T. C March '.7.' interest
la the Smoot hearing exceeds that
- phown in jetther the house or the senate.
The hearing is open to the public, but
as it is conducted in a small committee
room scarcely more than 306b feet in
dimensions, the attendance Is necessarily
limited to the members of the commit
tee, the witnesses and counsel, , news
paper reporters and a Bcore, or o, jf
1 the public or of curious members of the
senate and house, : who. squeese In and
catch what they can of the interesting
proceedings.:! The members of the elec-
tlonfr and privileges i committee, 13 in
number, eight v Republicans- and five
Democrats, sit around the ' head and
sides of a long table. Chairman Bur
rows presiding-, and occupying the head
place. Toward the other end of the
table, on one side, sit Senator Smoot,
with his eounsel, Me.nrs. Vorthtngtou
of this city, and Van Gott of Salt Lake
City. -Grouped back of Senator Smoot
re the witnesses, the Mormon apostles
- and -eWers, -called f rom- Utah to givo
testimony against their pwn faith and
their' own manner of lte. Across the
table sit the counsel of those who have
'-protested against Smoot's retention in
" the senate. Former Secretary John O
..' Carlisle was named as one of the coun
el for, the prosecution, but he has not
-l) attended any of the hearings excepting
n the opening day. The case against
Smoot has been conducted solely by
Attorney Robert Wr Taylorrf ormeriy-
. member of congress from Ohio, and who
conducted the fight against Brig-ham H.
Roberts, which prevented Roberts from
occupying a seat in congress, to which
he had been elected by the people of
' J.'tah. At Mr. Taylor's elbows sit E. B.
CrlclUow and Robert M. Owen of Salt
Lake JCity, both fully conversant with
Mormon practices, and both- ready
. throughout theexamination to prompt
Mr. Taylor wH5n his own knowledge of
the, situation Is deficient. Back of Tay
lor and his prompters usually sit a
half -dozen of women who are officers
In the various women's ; organisations
which have been, and are, making such
a persistent fight against Brnoot' anil
Mormonism, nd which is graving Its
culmination In the present! hearings.
At the extreme end of the long table
and facing Chairman Burrows, Presi-
dent Joseph F, Smith has occupied the
.witness chair ifor the 'past ' week.
Crowds of curious people, many, of them
women, have flocked to the capltol ev
ery day to get a glimpse of the presl-
' dent of the Mormon church.' and they
peer at him curiously through open
comntittee-,room doorways, and wait in
the corridors to see him as he leaves
and enters the committee-room. Presi
dent Smith , has proven an ' admirable
.witness. He has been subjected to
cross-examinations : by some of the
sharpest ' legal minds in the' United
States senate Senators Hoar, Bailey,
Koraker, Dubois and Beverldge who
' have each taken turns in probing him
in the search, for the secrets of the
Mormon church." With few exceptions
President Smith has maintained a calm
composure, never allowing- himself to
be carried ft his feet by his keen In
. qulsitors. He talks in a deliberate,
methodical . manner, ,. weighing every
word, and giving it proper considera
tion' before speaking. 'He Is scrupu
lously polite, arid shows much respect
toward the senators who catechise him.
This is especially noticeable In the an
awers he makes to Senator Hoar, and It
Is evident from' the consideration shown
him in many of Senator Hoar's ques
tions that the feeling, is reciprocated.
Smith apparently appreciates that le
is in an exceedingly trying position, and
. . that it Is he and his church that the
nenate committee la trying, and that
Smoot is but an Incident in the pro
ceedings. Occasionally he has betrayed
Intense feeling, and this has happened
Invariably -when-Crltchlow and Owen
liave . suggested questions to Attorney
' Taylor.- In tones showing intense an
get he has on these occasions denounced
... persons whom he classes as spies and
Informers, and he has not hesitated to
express his contempt for them.- Sev-
eral times he has hissed out the decla
ration that he despises a spy and an In
former. , Attorney Taylor, who has con
ducted the examination of President
Smith, Is in appearance and manner a
merciless Inquisitor. His face Is aus
tere, his eyes cold and piercing. There
Is no sympathy or kindliness In his
voice or expression, ' and It is evident
that,- in addition to being the paid at
torney of those protesting against
Hmoot, that his heart ts in his work,
and that personally It is his Intention to
tight Mormonism to the death. He has
studied the history of the Mormon
church in all of its ramifications, and
his experience he gained as the prose
cutor of Roberts Is standing him in
' good stead in the fight he is ' making
! against Smoot. Attorney Taylor is re-
reiving valuable aid from some of -the
members of the committee. Chairman
Burows has put searching and damag
ing questions to the president of the
church, and has shown that he Is well
Informed and has been- making a study
' of the . Mormon question. Senator
Bailey, Overman, Dubois, also aid ma
terially in the examination. From the
trend of questions asked by members
of the committee It is Inferred at the
present time that Senators Beverldge
and Foraker are the only ones who have
taken part in the questioning who are
; disposed to favor Smoot, The trial Is
'. the ; absorbing theme . In Washington,
and the result will be looked for with
Intense interest . It Is the opinion of
fiome of the Democratic members ' of
the senate-Jhat a decision will not be
made In the case until after the coming
presidential election. ; While no parti
san spirit has shown on the surface of
the matter, it is possible that party
lines might be drawn before the case
is finished, and as the Mormons control
or rather hold the balance of power in
several of the western states, it may be
desirable to putTjff a decision "so that
neither party can be punished by the
Mormons In the coming election.
The Panama canal commission has not
effected an organization, and Admiral
Walker, is the only member at Wash
ington. The admiral has been almost
overwhelmed with applications for posi
tions, offers of material and suggestions
and ideas concerning the building of the
canal. Contractors and manufacturers
from all over the world are writing to
the commission and asking informa
tion as to what is wanted to carry on
the operations. Contractors Wtio sup
ply .labor for great undertakings are
especially busy, and offers to sdpply
cheap and reliable labor Inured to the
1 tropical climate . are coming from all
.. over the world. A man writer from
Kgypt that he can furnish an unlimited
supply of cheap labor similar to that
' , tmed when the Sues canal was built.
' Hundreds, in fact, thousands of appli
cations are. coming in from civil engi
' Deers who want positions with the com
mission. A large number of physicians
liate also applied for service in the medl
cal corps of the canal employes. Sol
tilers of fortune who have had experience
in Latin American countries are offering
their services. Applications have come
' in from construction bosses, electrical
'and mechanical engineers of all kinds
and nearly every other trade and pro
fesslon. 'Those wanting , clerical posl
tlin run up In to the thousands. Some
want johs in the commission's office In
Wantilngton, wbUa many .want to go to
the isthmus. In addition to the applies-
ttons for positions: there are . received
hundreds ' of suggestions concerning
canal building, some of them practical,
but more of them the odd notions con
trived by the minds of cranks and Immature-
geniuses. . ' . .'-, '
The department of commerce and la
bor has issued an interesting statement
relative to the commerce of the terri
tory immediately "adjacent to the scent
of the present hostilities in the orient.
The total yearly commerce on the ter
ritory fronting and immediately adja
cent to the scene of the war averages
1 600,000,000, of which considerably more
than one-half is imports and exports, but
in the case of China, a-id Asiatic Russia,
the imports largely exceed the exports,
and this is also true of Hongkong, which
passes . most of its imports on Into
China, and draws from China most of the
articles which becomes its exports.
Probably thiee-flfths of the total com
merce of the countries in question taken
asmwhohr-is in the -f erm tf - imports,
and the United States is year by year
selling a large share of these imports
and gaining upon the other countries in
the relative share which It supplies. Th
more important, of the exports of the
United States to the- section in question
are cotton and Cotton goods, kerosene,
nour, lumber, manufactures of Iron and
steel, manufactures of leather and to
bacco Raw -cotton exports of this sec
tion of the country go chiefly to Japan.
and the market 'In Japan for "American
cotton is influenced by the supply of
cotton from India, which Is of shorter
staple and therefore of. lower price.
Kerosene is an Important item In our
exports to the orient, and in this ar
ticle trade Is bearly holding its own. as
Russia is proving a very active compet
itor. Flour as an article of our ex
port trade hire of late attracted con
siderable attention, but the total Is not
large nor la the growth rapid. The total
value of the flour exported to tne coun
tries named during the last fiscal year
was $7,165,060, or less than 10 per cent
of the total exports of American flour
la the same ; year. The total exports
from the United States to the countries
fronting on the war during the calendar
year 1903 were as follows: China, IIS,-
S7i.08g; Hongkong. 19,792.193: Japan.
$20,874,887; Asiatic Russia, $716,274;
Korea. $370,666.
There is much talk of an early ad
journment . of congress, and some fix
the date for such adjournment as not
later than April 15 or May 1. That there
will .be comparatively little legislation
enacted outside of the necessary appro
priation bills seems to be a certainty.
Vlth much other proposed legislation
that Is likely to remain unacted upon at
this session is that proposing to repeal
all of the land laws of the country ex
cepting the homestead act It will be
recalled that early In the session the
president designated three officials of
the government to act as a public land
commission, and Instructed , them to
gather Information relative to land con
ditions In the west, for the purpose of
reporting to congress the exact situa
tion, and to recommend to' congress de
sirable legislation on land matters. The
commission held '. numerous meetings.
and two of Its members, at the direction
of the president, attended the convention
at Portland, Or., of the National Live
stock association and the National Wool-
growers association, at which land and
other western problems were freely dl:i
cussed. These two members also at
tended public meetings at Salt Lake
City, Denver, Cheyenne, and other placrs
In the west, at which 'they received at
firsthand the lmpreslona and opinions
of western people.
Having received all of this informa
tlon the commission has now reported
to congress and has made some recom
mendatlons which will be disappointing
to those who have been so loudly ad
vocatlng that the land laws be wiped off
the statute books. The recommenda
tions favor the amendment of the desert
land act so as to strike out the provision
permitting assignments. They favor re
peal of the timber and stone act with a
substitute permitting the sale of timber
at public auction, and the repeal of the
commutation clause of the homestead
act la also recommended.. It Is doubtful
If the report of the commission will
have much weight with the public land
committees of the senate and house.
The members of these committees
have their own ideas regarding land leg
islation and many of them are of the
opinion that they are as well qualified
to judge of conditions In the west as the
members of the commission. At this
late day In the session It is Improbable
that radical legislation can be secured.
and It may be predicted with reasonable
certainty that the land laws will remain
practlcally jtinchnged f orspme tlm
to come.
The modest sum of $60,(00 hss been
requested by the treasury department
for the purpose of building a stable to
accommodate President Roosevelt's
horses. The 'Item appears In print as
"repairs, fuel, etc for the executive
mansion." but as a matter of fact the
sum Is desired for a stable for the presi
dent's horses, of which he has a larger
number than any preceding president
It is anticipated that the Democrats In
the house will attack this ' Item and
make comparisons of Mr. Roosevelt with
his predecessors, alleging that a sum of
this sixe for this purpose is extravagant.
The present stable Is quite a pretentious
building, and looks more like a public
school in a large and populous town
than a stable. "
' The recent discussion In' ths senate
of the navy appropriation bill brought
out the interesting fact that the United
States is building up Its navy more rap-
Idly than any other nation on earth ex
cepting Great Britain.. A list of the ships
now under contract shows that the gov
ernment Is haying built 12 first class
battleships, eight armored cruisers,
eight protected cruisers, two gunboats,
two training ships, one training brig, six
torpedo, and two tugs. Of the battle
ships, the Missouri is practically com
pleted, the Ohio and Virginia are nearly
done,- and In addition to this work has
progressed considerably on the Ne
braska, the Georgia, the New Jersey,
the Rhode Island, the Connecticut, the
Louisiana, the Vermont the Kansas, and
the Minnesota. When the ships 'now in
progress of construction are completed,
It is said by experts that we will have a
tonnage greater than any nation on the
face of the earth, excepting ureat Brit
ain and France; and in point or emcl
ency, the navy department aays that our
navy will be more effective than that of
France. In the discussion of the navy
bill. Senator Hale, chairman of the sen
ate committee on naval affairs gave a
candid expression of his views on our
Intended policy and pontics. He covin
seled the country to avoid entanglement
especially in the far east, and took vig
orous exception to the Intimation; as he
considered It, that the Interests and
sympathies of the United States are
with Japan ss against Russia.

BITS of MINING NEWS f
A cyanide plant Is to be installed In
j connection with the recently-completed
Alamo mill. Tests that have been made
Aur the owners that an excellent ex
traction Is possible at a very low cost
and they believe better results are pos
sible by this process than by the usual
amalgamation and concentration pro
cess. ' '..
J. T. Baker of South Dakota, who. has
been visiting the Gold Bug quart- prop
erty, la well satisfied. Some assays ran
$85 to the ton, others $51. The values
secured from the new vein recently
opened in the crosscut did not run very
high, but a quantity of ore taken from
the bins and property, and concentrated
down thoroughly,, ran up to the high fig
ure of $1,839.70. ;
The New York-Oregon management
hope to- have the new hoisting plant
erected very soon, when, development
will proceed with great . dispatch. The
shaft Is down to the 100 level, and a
drift of 125 feet has-been made on the
vein, which the management states is
opening good ore the entire length. 'There
are five to seven veins crossing the prop
erty, but the principal work being done
Is on the central one.
The Home-take Mining company Is
now operating six shafts the Ellison,
B. & M.', Golden Star, Golden Prospect,
Old Brig and Golden Gate. Three of
these, the Golden Gate. Old Brig and
Golden Prospect, have reached the 800-
foot level, while the Ellison,- B. & 'M.,
and Golden Star have reached the 1,100-
foot level. Four of these shafts -are
located on the hanging wall side of the
ledge, one on the foot wall side and, one
is sunk in the ledge. All are connected
by permanent drifts driven ,ln 'the coun
try rock. These shafts are very large
affairs and are connected underground.
and through them 4,000 tons a day are
mined.
The second furnace of the Mineral
City plant is expected to be ready for
blowing in about March 15. It is to
have 100 tons' capacity, and is to be of
the improved pattern that has been
adopted by the management of the Ladd
Metals company. The old furnace, hav
ing a .capacity of 50 to 60 tons. Is said
to be reducing ore daily,, with satisfac
tory results. When the flew furnace
Is ready for work the . Mineral City
smelter will have a capacity sufficient
to handle all of the ore that may be pro
duced In the camp from present devel
opment. This new furnace is the pro
cess said 'to utilise coal In raw state.
rather than coke, the gases generated
thereby being used to actuate the en
gine of the plant.
The Victor six-drill compressor plant
will be operating soon. . Construction
work has progressed In a Very satisfac
tory manner, and the plant, which Is
the first of the district to actuate a' com
pressor by gasoline, ts pronounced very
neat compact, and has the appear
ance of efficiency. This being the first
time that gasoline has been employed In
the district for such steady , work, in
teresting figures will be available soon
for comparison with steam-driven com
pressors. Wood In 'the Cracker Creek
district Is becoming more scarce. The
E. & E. acquired most of that available
up Big Cracker, the Columbia secured
the reserve up Fruit creek, snd Gol-
conda acquired the . most promising
tracts on Silver crefk. This means that
the smaller properties have to haul a
good distance, and wood is rapidly get
ting higher. The Victor will demon
strata whether this upward tendency
of the natural fuel has brought gaso
line within economical- range, which
many operators believe Is the case.
