2 WILL TAKE A WESTERN TRIP, Prozident Oleveland to Make a Political Tour in May. L PARTY BREACHES TO BE HEALED. Disgruntied Democrats at Way Sta- ¢+ tlons Will Gaze Upon the Bhow and Immediately Return to the Fold, Will View the Wild West, WasHINGTON, Mareh 29.—Special gram to the BEE.|--1tissaid to-night that the president 1s very mucn worrled over the reports that have come to him of his stand ing in democratic circles in New York and some of the western states and that he has finally determined to take a tour, ostensibly for recreative purposes, but really with poli- tics in view, to the west very soon after the close of the national drill on the last day of A May. Mrs. Cleveland will accompany him o and will absorb as much of political observa- i tion and comment as possible. The party has not yet been made up, but it is under- stood that it will be composed of a very few personal friends of the president and Mrs. Cleveland, Colonel and Mrs. Lamont, and perhaps a few cabinet officers and their wives. As stated in a dispateh to the BER a couple of nights since, Secretary Whitney and Colonel Lamont have recently been in New York feeling the public pulse in regard to the standing of the administration and their returns to the president are not Tele- cheerful. Since Secretary Manning left the cabinet lie is counted among the enemies of the administration and the bugle blasts of Mayor Carter Harrison, of Chicago, against the president and for Governor Hill, has added to the nervousness of the president. ‘While Mr. Cleveland recognizes his weakness 1in his own state, he has been told repeatedly of Iate that his oversight of the west in mak- ing Important -appointments bas created a great deal of animosity In that section and it is his purpose to let the people see him and his charining wife and heal as much as pos- sible the breach in the party ranks. After his return a canvass will be made of tbe strength of his adminmistration throughout the country and it will then be determined if he shall announce in advance whether ho will Yfl'mll the use of his nawe for a renomina- on. A CLASH OF AUTHORITY, For some time there have been whisper- ings in army circles that a feeling exists be- tween Secrétary Endicott and General Sheri- dan which was’ creating a wide breach, and would call for action by the president. Dis- tlmlnf rumors to this effect this evening’s Star, the under caption ‘Endicott and Sheri- dan—The Secretary and Lieutenant General Not in Harmony,” has this to say: n of authority between the secre- tary of war and the lieutenant general of the army are becoming of frequent occurrence. General Sheridan” was opposed to the order 1imiting the term of service of staff officers to four years, holding that general officers should haye the right of keeping officers with them as long as they wished. No exceptions were made in the enforcing of the order, for the secretary was determined to break up the custom of allowing certain officers to retaln comfortable berths year after year. As a natural consequence of this determination . an order was Issued a couple of month ago to limiting terms of adjutants of regiments and regimental quartermasters to four years also. There was no expressed opposition to this order, While the secre tnrg of war was away a short time ago several adjutants’ n;;}mlut- ments were made by colonels, with the ap- proval of General Sheridan, of liemenants serving with light batteries, These appoint- ments did not meet with the approval ot the secretary, who held that in justice to officers of regiments, adjutants should be sclected from among the lieutenants doing actual service with their regiments. An order was therefore issued restricting appointments to such ofticers and the objectionable appoint- ments were revoked. General Sheridan was out west at the time. No correspondence has taken E‘flm‘e between the two oflicials, and probably none will, It all goes to show, however, as has frequontly been stated, that the secretary of war and lientenant general do not always work well together in admin- istering the affairs of the army, APPOINTM First Lieutenant Albert M.

The Daurtiess and Coronet Saluted By the Royal Uork Clab, James Gordon Bennett.) York (Copyright 1857 QUEENSTOWN, March —[New Herald Cable—Special to the Beg. Royal Cork Yacht elub at noon to-day fired a salute of seven guns in honor of tha visit of the Coronet and Dauntless. The ensign of the New York Yacht elub was hoisted on the flagstafl of the Royal Cork Yacht elub. [m- mediately afterward the Coronet and Daunt- less iired simultaneously in return seven guns nd unfurled the ensign of the Cork club. The Coronet to-morrow procceds to her anchorage off the Royal Yachtelub Liouse, at Cawes, The following is from the Irish Times, of Dublin, the leading conservative journal in Ireland: The yacht Dauntless was sighted off Castlo Townsend yesterday at 8 o'clock a.m. Asa consequnce of the very light breeze blowing, she was unable to make anything like a rapid prozress toward Queenstown, At 4 o'clock A m. the Herald chartered a special steamer, and one of its staff, accompanied by Mr. A. IL Allen, secretary of the Royal Cork Yacht club, boarded the Dauntless off the port of Kinsale and got hoer dispatehes, which reached New York before the yacht arvived at Queens- town. The Cork Examiner, the leadinz daily paperin the south of Ireland, contains tho following: “The competition between the aifferent American newspaper correspondents ran very high, The idea that the Dauntless was damaged or disabled gave additional interest onher arrival. The Americans were very eager to be first in with the details of, as some expected, the catastropne that the Dauntless might have had met. The New York Herald had two steamers engaged, the Saxon as a tender for boarding outside, and the C. B. and P. R, company’s Monkstown torun in from off the harbor with the dis- patches. By this stratagem they were ahead of their fellows,” Another ¥acht Challenge. New York, March Etruria, which arrived yesterday, brought a long letter and sundry official documents from the secretary of the Royal Clyde Yacht club to the secretary of the New York yacht club, making a challenge in due form in be- half of the new Scotch cutter yacht Thistle, owned by James Ball, of Glasgow, to race with any American yacht for the America’s cup, the international emblem which the Puritan and Genesta salled for last season. The committee in charge of the cup met to-day and in effect accepted the challenge, though it will have to go before the club for ratification. =l tly Father Ryan Sent to Prison. DunriN, March 20.—Father Ryan, of the Herbertstown branch of the National league, persisted in his refusal before the justice of the bankruptey court to tell what he knew about the doings of tenants in his parish, re- specting the trusteeing of their rents under the plan of campaign and was condemned to prison. When Ryan emerged from the court, he was met by many thousands of citizens who cheered him and then followed him in procession to jail. A number of prominent men took part 1n this procession and among the most conspicuous were Lord Mayor Sulli- van and Archbishop Croke. Father Slattery was also summoned to give similar testimony to that demanded by Father Ryan. He likewise refused and was ordered to prison. el ol Railroad Clerks Let Out, PrrTsusura, March 20.—1'he entire force of clerks in the transfer station of the Penn- sylvania railroad In this city have been noti- fied that after the present month’s business was finished their services would be ro longer required. Nearly one hundred men, receiv- ing salaries from §50 to $125 per month, will be thrown out of employment b{ the aban- donment of the station, which is believed to be one of the first visible effects ot the pass- ave of the inter-state commerce bill. Hereto- fore all freight from either east or west pass- ing from the main line of the Pennsylvania road to the main line of the I'ennsfl\'nnla company. or vice versa. has been rebilled and transferred in this city, but in the future all freight will be shipped through to its destina- tion without any transfer whatever.

In consequence of the adoption by the landtag of Bisho]) Kopp's amendment to the eccle- siastical law, the vatican hasdecided to leave the centre party full liverty of action in Ger- man political aifairs, retalning also the same freedom for itself. Members of the extreme left in the chamber of deputies have passed resolutions severely censuring the govern- ment for entering into an alliance with Austria and Germany, because both powers are friendly to the vatican. e ~ Powderly and the Anarchists.

The Inner Life and Tenets of the Utah Saints — Allegiance to the Church and Hostility to Government. ‘'The Mormon Monster." Miss Kate Field stood gracefully upon the opera house stage lust evening and held the attention of 600 cultured ladies and gentlemen for two hours with her graphic description of the mysteries and monstrosities of Mormonism. Miss Field was elegantly attired in & crimson satin dress en train, with white lace polonaise, corsage boquet, black velyet brochure with diamond pin, and gloves. General Crook, at whose residence Miss Field is a guest, introduced her to the audience a few well chosen words, Secarcely had she enunciated the first sentence before her auditors were aware that her rare clocutionary powers had not been unde- servedly heralded. She 1s a most please ing speaker and possesses not a little dra- matic talent. Miss Field smd: T hope I do not lack humility in assuming that I possess aver- age ntelligence. From childhood I have been more or less associated with that source of popular education—the press— and yet until two years ago [ knew abso- lutely nothing of Mormonism. Judged by myself, it is safe to conclude that the facts connected with 150,000 human be- ings who, while living under the Am ican flag are as alien to American insti- tutions as Fiji islanders, will be as great & revelation to the majority of my audi- ence as they were to me. 1 had become ashamed of staying east year after year, and determined to hitch my wagon to the star of empire and learn something of my own great country; 1 might visit Utahb; all would depend upon circum- stances. All did, 1determined to cross the mountains on horseback. Snow blocked the way. In despair of [;ettiuu nothing to cat and no tolerable place in which to sleep, I started for the nearest big town, which happened to be Salt Lake City, where I expected to remain one weck and tarried many months. / Because I could not help it. Fate! 1 thing that Mormonism makes serfs of its followers; thatit brutalizes humanity; that it becomes organized treason, and that 18 the worst of it. In tho thirteen articles of faith of the church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. there is no mention of polygamy, and yet this is a vital principle. 1 have often heard it called the corner stone of the Mormon church. If it be the corner stone, how very remarkable that the church shoula have existed thirteen years without it. The church was organized in 1830. The revelation of celestinl marriages is said to have been given in 1843, but was not publicly announced until 1852. Eight months after this revelation had been made known to the chosen few, a travel- ing elder was excommunicated - for preaching what these chosen few were practicing. The end justifies the means in Mormondom. An authority has pub- licly declared that under certain circum- stances the Lord allows His priesthood to lic in order to save His people. Now, what said President John Taylor at Boulogue-Sur-Mer, France, in 1850: “We are accused here of polygamy and and crime such as none but a corrupt heart could have conceived. Now, these things are too outrageous to be believed; therefore I will content myself with uoting our views.” Whereupon he read rom the Mormon marriage covenant, and among other quotations were these: “‘We mutually agree to be each other’s campanion as husband and wife, keeping ourselves wholly for each other and from all others during our lives.” Again: ““Thou shalt love (th wife with all thy heart. and thou shalt cleave unto_her, and to none else.” ‘‘There,’’ said Elder Taylor, *‘that is our doctrine on the sub- ject,”” he having at the time no fewer than seven wives in Utah, and paying his attentions to a young lady on the isle of Jersey. This ~ truthful * gentleman is called the mouthxiocu of the Almighty. A more fiendish paper was never drawn up than this so-called revelation; a God to promulgate such villainy is as much worse than an accepted deviias hypocrisy is worse than vice. Section twenty-five reads thus: ‘‘If a woman refuse to give other wives to her husband it shall be lawful for him to take them without her consent, and she shall be destroyed for her disobedience.”” Is it likely that a woman will refuse consent under such circumstances? Here 1s another section: “Verily, verily, I say unto you, if a man take a wife according to My word, and they are sesled by the Holy Spirit of promise according to Mine appointment; and if he or she shall commit any sin or transgression of the new and everlastin; covenant whatever, and all manner of blasphemy, and if they commit no mur- der, whereby they shed innocent blood, yet shall they come forth in the first resurrection and enter into their exalta- tion.” You may lie, steal, do all man- ner of wickedness, except the shedding of innocent blood, provided you have wives sealed to you by the Holy Spirit. I may state here that the Gentiles are not inno- cent in the opinion of the Mormons. ‘Therefore it is no crime, according to the doctrine of blood atonement, to shed their blood if ordered to do so by the church. Mormon women accept polygamy as a cross put upon them for past sins and future exaltation. Mormon theory fills the air with unembodied spirits, anx- iously waiting for fleshy tabernacles wherein to do penance in order to obtain salvation, lmf those who provide the largest number of tabernacles receive the highest exaltation, When polygamy was first proclaimed the women dared to murmur, and so did some of the men whereu]lvon Brigham Young deqonncod his rebellious flock in blood-curdling lan- uage. L Tfle element of love in marriage was very strongly condemned by Brigham Young. It interfered with all his plans for the building up of the kingdom. He told the women it was sufficient honor for them to bear children to a saint. He held women in intellectual contempt, saying once ‘‘Women will be more easily saved than men. They haven't sense enough to go far wrong.” Men have more knowledge and power; therefore they can go more quickly and certainly to hell.” Ask a Mormon woman whether she believes in polyzamy and she will almost invariably say, *‘Ye: quotin, scripture to establish her position. It is this profession of belief that staggers the unwary traveler. He does not realize the surveillance of the church and the dual nature of the sisterhood. I have had a younfi married saint stoutly main- tain her belief in polygamy who soon af- ter confided to the wife of n Gentile—her cousin-——that she was in perpetual agony at the thought that her husband might take a plural wife in obedience to the priesthood. Miss Field gave the true inwardness of woman's voting in Mormondom, the right of suffrage having been given to women by a Mormon legislature at the instigatlon of Brigham Young, who oized upon the idea as a protection against the inroads of the Gentiles. Women were given the ballot not to defend themselves,but to strengthenMormonism. A territory that has - abolished the right of dower, that proclaims pol‘yymy to be divine, that has no laws against bigamy and aimilur crimes, has no just: apprecia- | tion of woman afib s unworthy of self- respecting humanity, woman suffrage or no woman suffrage. From the socialierimes of the polyga- mous heirarchy Miss Field passed to the mysteries of the endowment house, which she describes ?lf humorously and half tragically, giving finally the oaths whereby those who fook them became slayes to the church and traitors to the United States government. Tracing the scheme for possession of temporal power from Joseph Smith (who aspired to and was nominated by his people for presi- dent of the Unitdd States 1n 1844) up to the present day, Miss Field maintained that foul a blot ag was polygamy on the republic’s escutcheon, the great crime of Utah was treasons She proved her claims by the records of history, quoting, among other important documents, igham Young's proclamation of war against the United States in 1856, whereby United States troops were forbidden to enter Salt Lake Val Just before leaving Salt Lake City this winter John T. Caine, the Mormon "dele- gate to (‘nn{:nwm who is an elder in his church, addressed the brethren at the dighteenth ward mecting house. Among atriotic utterances was the fol- I was thinking a few 8 8go, reading of ex-President Arthur’s death, how the Lord was removing those who oppose tl nts of the Most High, President Arthur did all in his power to ire legislation against ‘our people,’ and he has been brushed out of the wa, be who opposed this work," and more to the same effect. This gentle- man receives $5,000 a year from the United States government. At this point Miss Field sang with great eflect one of the *‘hymns’ of that period, which the *‘Saints’ had set to the air of the old negro melody *‘Du Dah," The final verse runs thus: Old Squaw-Killer Harney’s on the way, Dah! Du The Mormon peovle for to slay, f Du Da, Du Da Dey! Now if he comes, the truth 1'li tell, Du Dah ! Our boys will drive them down to hell, Du Da, Du Da Doy! Chorus— Then let us be on hand, By Brigham Young to stand, And if our enemies do appear We'll sweep them from the land. She made a very strong plea in favor of a national marriage law to do away with special anti-polygamy legislation. Such a law would not encroach upon the domain of ecclesiasticism. A marriage might be solemnized in accordance with any religion, bnt first would be in accord with the law of the land, as in France. With such a law a man within our geo- graphical limits is either married or single—has either one wife or no wife. Beyond this dignified numeral is felony, though sanctioned by high priests in the templesof Mormondom. Shall a man be a criminal for having two living wives anywhere under our flag except in Utah, and there enjoy freedom, hold property and be crowned king and saint? 8o lonr as this endures let us not prate of equal- ity before the law, Eloquently as Miss Field pleaded for 4 national margidge law, it is not her panacea | for the political ills of Utah, Loyal citizens, ask not for anti-polygamy laws, not for the disfranchisement of women, not for the disfranchisement of a class, but for the disfranchisement of all men and women and the establishment of a legis- lative commission, cpmposed of loyal citizens of the territory, appointed by the president with the consent of congress. Such a commission governed the terri- tory of Florida, Lowisiana and the North- western territory. Gentiles are so anxious that Utah should be put in harmony with the rest of the unipn as to be willing to give up the ballot and stand upon the same plane as their disloyal brothers and sisters, Al Her singing of ‘thie ‘Mormon *‘hymn" was one of the hits of her address. An- other was her reference to the ignorance regarding the Mormon guestion which prevails throughout the east.~ She styled 1t an epidemic and made a local refer- ence to a young man whom she had found in Omaha, who did not know that anyone cxcort Mormons lived in Utah. She advised him to go west next sum- mer. In relation to the peculiar m of the Mormons in affecting congressiona legislation she said that $250,000 which had been contributed by the confidin, saints toward placing glass in the Salt Lake tabernacle was utitized in coloring glasses darkly at Washington, At sev- eral oratorical periods and at the conclu- sion of her address Miss Field was warmly applauded. NEW BUSINESS ENTERPRISES. A New National Bank—Important Changes. The boom in Omaha is not confined to real estate deals entirely. Business men are flocking to the city from all direc- tions seeking a location for new enter- prises that will add to Omaha's growth and prosperity. Rumors of new schemes fill the air and the projectors of them fill the city. Many of these schemes are as- suming tangible shape and some of them are of suflicient importance to influence the commercial and industrial in- tsrests of the city to a considera- ble extent. Prominent among the proposed plans is that of the organiza- tion of a new national bank with a paid up capital stock of $500,000 and an au- thorized stock of $1,090,000. The capral- ists who are reported as being back of this enterprise are Barker Bros., Fred Johnson, Byron Reed, 8. B. Johnson, and gentlemen who sre already heavily mterested in two of the national banks of Omaha. These gentlemen are very reticent as to the proposed enterprise but the fact that it is beng worked is not denied. The new bank, it 1s under- stood, will occup[}; a choice corner i the new Barker block, at the corner of Fifteenth and Farnam, which will be built at once. The reorganization of the pioneer wholesale dry gaods house of Tootle, Maul & Co., malle necessary by the death of the seri ‘Zp'nrl.ner, has been effected. The m‘n{ will hereafter be knowp as the Kilflatrick-Koch Dry Goods comg-n y, . Mr. Maul remains & member of the coflw , Which has in- creased its capital stock to §300,000, J. G.

A PYTHIAN CAKNIVAL, The Geand Ball and Drill Last Night— Detatls, Yesterday was a great day in the an. nals of local Pythiamism. The occasion was the grand parade and ball given by Myrtle lodge to its sister lodges in this city, Lincoln and Plattsmouth. The af- fair was brilliantly successful in every particular. At 8:30 the four local uniformed lodges, Myrtle, Ialy, Douglas and Omaha, formed in line at the exposition building, and preceded by the K. of P.band, marched 175 strong down to the depot, where the two divisions from Lincoln were met. ‘These were the Apollo uni- formed division and the A, D. Marshall lodge g nearly seventy-five men in all. They were escorted to the exposi- tion building, after a parade of the principal streets, which was wit- nessed by hundreds ot people. The ranks were then broken and a scason of hand- shaking and fraternal greetings folowed, The ball in the evening tended by necarly seven hundred people, includ- g the fi ncoln delegation and represent. atives of the Plattsmonth lodges. The Apollo uniformed division, of Lincoln, went through some very pretty evola- tions, under the commana of “Captain Keifer. They were loudly appisuded and at the conclusion were tendered the thanks of the l’é‘thiml knights of Omaha ina lrecnh by Captain J. J. Monell, Following "this came a dance pro- gramme of twenty-two numbers, which kept the merry throng busy until an early hour this morning. THE BOSS PAIR OF PACKERS, Phil D, Armour and John Plankinton Visit Omaha, A palatial special car named Suint Paul arrived from the west yesterday morning and wassidetracked during the day be- neath the protecting dome of the depot. It was occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Philip D. Armour, Mr. and Mrs. John Plankin- ton, Mesdames E. D. Chapin and Alice Sloan, and Mrs. John E. Newell. As a BeE reporter invaded the car a pleasant faced, substantial gentleman, with bald head and Vanderbilt whiskers, intro- duced himself as Mr. Armour, and turn- ing to an elderly gentleman of ample physical proportions, said: ‘‘This is Mr. Plankinton, the handsomest man in Wis- consin.” Mr. Plankinton said *“‘huh,'’ and disappeared into anothur apartment, Mr. Armour said: “We are returning from a trip to from New Orleans to Los Angeles. We have been looking about Omaha to-day and are impressed with its wonderful promise. Its inside property, by which I mean business property, is not held at boom prices, speaking compara- tively. Inallof the smart towns we have visited—Kansas City and Denvgr and others—prices are -higher proportion- ataly. So 1 do not sce that you are hav- ing a boom in that way.
