The death of Cardinal Parocchi moves one of the prelates considered to be the most*likely to succeed Pope "Leo. There was always conslderable friction re- between the Pope and Cardinal Parocchi | on this account, and it led to the unpre- cedented step of the Pontiff in removing the Cardinal from the post of vicar of Rome because it was thought that he too openly posed as the future Pope. Nevertheless; the Pope was deeply af- fected by Cardinal Parocchi's death. knelt in prayer and exclaimed: “These frequent deaths have made me feel quite an old man.”_ DBSTRUGTS ANTI-TRUST BILL Attorney General Insists on Changes in Its Phraseology. Spacial Dispatch to The Call. ON, Jan. 15.—A complete e of programme in the matter of the anti-trust bill has been rendered nec- essary by conferences between Little- field's sub-committee and Attorney Gen- eral Knox. These conferences were re- quested by the latter for the purpose of agreeing on the phraseology of those sec- tions of the blll covering recommenda- have been made to which the committee does not readily agree, and Representa- tives friendly to the legislation blame the Attorney General for the delay, Representatives Littlefield, Overstreet and Powers went over the biil with Knox to-day and did not finish its conslderation, Knox goes to Pittsburg to-night and will not return until Monday. Therefore con- ferences cannot be resumed until after two regular meetings of the full commit- tee, one of which occurs to-morrow and the other on Matday. On this account it is probable that the bill will not be re- ported until a week from to-morrow, the next regular meeting -day of full com. mittee. It was the expectation that the bill would be completed to-day gnd reported to the full committee to-morrow. Instead of this the statement was given out from the sub-committee at the concluslon of its meeting this evening that conferences with the Attorney General had been held that no definite action had been taker and that the sub-committee would not be able to report until next week. — —_— VIEWS DO NOT ACCORD WITH GOVERNOR DOLE'S Reported in Honolulu That the At- torney General Has Resigned His Office. HONOLULU, Jan. 15.—It is currently reported that Attorney General E. P, Dole has resigned his office. Several reasons are assigned for the action of the Attor- ney General. One-is that pressure was brought to bear upon him by certain lead- | ers of the Republican party, and another is that he frequently held views in oppo- sition to those of the Governor on certain questions which created unpleasantness between the two officlals. The Attorney General is a cousin of Governor Dole and has held office ever since the inauguration of the Terrltorz government. Preacher Charged Wita Stealing. GUTHRIE, O. T., Jan.

Speclal Dispatch to The Call, SALT LAKE CITY, Jan. 15.—Hand in | hand with Senator Thomas Kearns, who gave out the famous second-hand inter- his candidacy, Apostle and Senator-to-be Reed Smoot expects to walk up to the bar of the Senate to be sworn in. | Smoot declared vesterday that until he was informed to the contrary, he expect- ed to be introduced in the regular way, by his colleague, and that he expected to | be seated. “There is no reason in the world why I should not be seated,”” he said. “I am | obeying the laws of our country and am If I am elected by the Legils- and I expect to get it. I have always been a firm supporter of President Roose- velt and I do not see why he should take a hand against me.” “Do you think the situation has been misrepresented to President Roosevelt?” “I do.

He | was also present at a meeting of the | | board of directors of Zion Co-operative | Mercantile Institution, the church store, | and another of Clark Eldredge & Co., | wholesale grocers. He had been in con- ference with his political lleutenant, Sen- | ator C. Loose, and had attended to a hun- | dred other details of church, politi- | cal and private business. He was seen | while hurrying to_the” Rlo Grande train | bound for Provo, his home, and this in- | terview took place for the most part on | the train just before it started. “What {s your attitude as an apostle on polygamy?”’ was asked. “I am not a polygamist. As a Mormon |and as an apostle I have never been | asked to practice polygamy or preach it | or advise others to practice it.” “Do you expect to go to Washington March 4, or wait until later?” | “I expect to follow the same procédure | as any other Senator-elect,” was the re- ply. “I shall go March 4, when my term begins, with my credentigls. In accord- ance with custom I shall expect Senator Kearns to present my credentials to the | Senate, unless he meanwhile declines to do so.. Then I shall expect to be sworn in and to take my seat.” SENATORS ARE SILENT. Opinion Prevails That There Will Be | No Opposition. WASHINGTON, Jan. 15.—Members of | the Senate Committee on Privileges and | Elections refuse to discuss the question | of admitting Reed Smoot, nominated | United States Senator in Utah yesterday, a Mormon apostle. The opinion pre- i vails in both branches of Congress that [ e will be admittted, because there are | { no constitutional grounds against such | | action and no precedent. he case dif-| fers from that of Representative Roberts, | who was not allowed a seat in the House ntatives because he was a po- No charge of this character is | made against Smoot. Senator Frank Can- { non of Utah, who had a seat in_the Sen- | ate as a Republican, was a member of the | Mormon church. It is expected that within a few days | the Senate will be flooded with petitions | | and memorials against the admission of | | Smoot, but that these will or can have | any effect now seems to be open to doubt. | | Democrats in both branches of Congress | 1ook upon the situation with complacency, | | because they all take the view of Senator | Republican National | Committee made a deal whereby the Mor- mons were to throw their influence for | the Republican ticket. In order to carry out their bargain the Democrats hold the Republicans must allow Smoot to come ¢o the Senate. They are also attempting to make political capital out of what they call the unusual course of the President in interfering in the election of a United States Senator by a soverelgn State. Senator Perkins was asked to-day whether there would be opposition to ac- cepting credentials of Apostle Smoot as ! 1 the new Senator from Utah. | “Smoot is as sure of a seat {n the Sen- | {ate as he is of election,” sald Perkins. “The Senate will not question his crede tials, if they are made out properly by the Governor of Utah. It is none of the Senate’s business whether the Senator's religious belief runs toward.Mormonism or Buddhism or any other'ism. The fact that a man's selection may be of ques- ticnable propriety is for the State to de- termine. If Utah can stand it the Senate can.” Senator Burrows of Michigan took the same view. Others sald they had no doubt Smoot would be sworn In immedi- ately upon the presentation of his cre- dentials. Laura Biggar's Friends Convicted. FREEHOLD, N. J., Jan. 15.—Br.

It was alleged that Dr. Hendricks falsely | certified to the birth of\a child to Laura | | Biggar and that Stanton Issued a certifi- | | cate alleging that Miss Biggar and Ben- | | nett- had been married by him, whereas | the prosecution claimed no such marriage took place. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS, Parasites Cause All Hair Troubles. Nine-tenths of the diseases of the scalp | and hair are caused by parasite germs. | The importance of this discovery by Pro. fessor Unna of the Charity Hospital, Ham- burg, Germany, cannot be overestimated. It explains why ordinary hair prepara- | | tions even of the most expensive charac- | ter fail to cure dandruff; because they do not and_they cannot kill the dandruff germ. The only hair preparation in the world that positively destroys the dan- druff parasites that burrow up the scalp into _scales called scurf or dandruff is Newbro's Herpicide. In addition to its destroying the dandruff germ Herpicide is also a delightful hair dressing, m:k- ing the hair glossy and soft as silk. Sold ht); lendltn‘ d; st!.
