Washington, Dec. 28. It is learned
from an nuthoritivo source today that
throe alternatives aro presented to
the United States in the note regard
ing Panama, which Reyes submitted
to tho state department. First, that
the status existing prior to tho revo
lution on the isthmu3 bo restored.
faecond, America to keop hands olf
while- Colombia tries to whip Panama
Into submission. Third, If tho United
States will accopl nolthor of tho pro
ceeding proposition sho should pay
Colombia damagos for the Injury In
flicted through tho-loss of territory,
the amount to be fixed by submission
to the Hnguo. No publication of the
toxt of the Reyes note is oxpected
until It is sent to congross with the

Washington, Dec. 28. Tho bollof
Is gaining ground hero that Reed
Suoot wil resign his seat in the
United StntOB senate, rather than un
dergo tho rigid investigation of his ro
llglous connections that Is expected.
Tho belief Is based on the theory
that the powers behind Mr. Smoot aro
convinced that tho presont fight is di
rected ngalnstf'the Mormon church,
rather than tho principle of polyga
my. Thoy do not caro to havo tho re
lations betwoon tho church and the
control of eculnr mattors by the ec
clesiastical authorities laid bare, and
would forco Mr. Smoot's resignation,
In proferonco to such disclosures as
would follow an inquiry.

filed a wcok ago with tho senato com
mittee on privileges and elections,
will bo revised and approved by the
church officials. They say It will un
doubtedly not disavow beliof In tho
doctrlno If polygamy, but that It will
bo a dofenso of Mormon rollglon. If
tho Smoot opponents guess rightly,
the anBWor will bo unsatisfactory.
Each member of tho senato has re
ceived a statement sont out by tho
Ministerial Alliance, of Salt Lnka
City, roplying to tho attack madp by
a Mormon apostlo on tho practices of
Christian ministers and tho accusation
that unborn children aro murdered by
thoso bolonglng to orthodox churchos.
This and othor charges aro donlod,
and in return tho morals of tho Mor

er bolng a man of low, vicious and
brutal Instincts, and now serving a
