'FoodandAmmunition for Port Arthur. | CHEFU, Dec. 16, 5 p. m.—Seven | Russians in civilian garb but with a military training obvious in . their | bearing arrived to-day in an open sail- ;h.m carrying dispatches. They were unwilling to talk and went immedi- ately to the Russian consulate. A high wind enabled them to make a quick passage from Port- Arthur. The Russians confirm the truthful- of the official Japanese reports which told of the sinking of several ips of the Russian fleet. They say | that the Japanese would have been | able to accomplish this at any time { during the past two months, but that | apparently they preferred to use their “puns against the forts. They express | the belief that the destruction of the | Russian ships indicates the abandon- | ment by the Japanese of the hope of | capturing the fortress. | | | | | | | The Japanese, the Russians say, have lost three torpedo-boats in the past month, the last one sinking dur- ing the night attack of December 14. According to these Russians the fighting during which High Hill was captured was terrific, that hill dlone costing the Japanese casualties of 12,- 000. The Japanese. they say, have | been unable to occupy the hill except | for purposes of observation and they | have taken none of the main forts. | During the past fortnight | steamers Jaden with ammunition and | provisions succeeded in running the | blockade and the Russians have high hopes that the fortress will be able to hold out for many months. The Japanese, these Russians al- lege, are depressed because of their unsuccessful sacrifice of the lives of their men. The sailboat bearing the Russians left Port Arthur last night under cover of a snowstorm and had a ter- rible time in crossing. The Russians were nearly frozen when they reached Chefu and were unable to leave the boat without assistance. They brought a large number of dispatches. A report from the commander of the Japanese third squadron from To- | kio Thursday said that early on the | morning of December 14 two flotillas | of torpedo-boats attacked the Russian battleship Sevastopol. One of these fiotillas was unsuccessful, having been exposed to the Sevastopol's search- lights. The other reached the in- tended spot, but in the darkness one | of the torpedo-boats composing the flotilla became lost from its comrade vessels. report was filed, midnight of Decem- ber 14, this torpedo-boat, which was commanded by Lieutenant Nagata, had not returned and the Japanese were anxious concerning her .safety. This probably is the boat referred to by the Russians, whose statement | would seem to confirm the belief that she has gone down. 1 High Hill, mentioned in the Chefu dispatch, may refer to 203-Meter Hill, | which was captured by the Japanese on November 30, and from which they bombarded and sank the Russian | warships. Dispatches received from Port Arthur several weeks ago men- tioned High Mountain, which was de- | seribed as being 500 feet high, facing | Pigeon Bay and slightly south of Fort Etse. | | —— COLD DELAYS OPERATIONS. Freezing of Wells Hampers Move- | ments on Both Sides. USANCHEN, Dec. 16.—Occasional ar- tillery firing is heard east of the rail- way. The Russians yesterday captured two Japanese who were in a pitiable con- ditfon. The prisoners grumbled greatly at the Manchurian cold and said they were glad to be fed and warmed. | The general position is very uncer-' tain. Movements on Both sides are hampered by the freezing of wells and the lack of snow, which renders it necessary to keep near the river for water supply and near the coal mines | for fuel.

She is an elderly ladv, who went from Denmark to Utah in 1872, and left ‘the Mormon church in 1896. She was asked concerning the obliga- tions taken in the temple and was re- quested to repeat as much of the cere- monies as she could remember. In a voice shaken with emMtion, Mrs. Elliott said that the obligations were so indelicate she could not bear to re- peat them. Chairman Burrows told her to take her own time and not to be embarrassed. The witness said the first oath administered to those who participated was that if they did not want to go any further and take the oaths they should turn back and 8o out. By slow degrees Mrs. Elliott repeat- ed the oaths of vengeance and the various penalties ascribed for reveal- ing any part of the ceremonies. Dur- ing her testimony concerning the pen- alties of mutilation of the body, the witness trembled continuously and ap- peared to proceed with difficulty. After saying that each person taking the endowments agrees to have his or her throat cut, Mrs. Elliott said it would be impossible for her to go further. At the request of Tayler, Mrs. El- liott described the garments worn by Mormons who have taken the endow- ments. Senator Overman asked if ev- ery Morman in good starding is com- pelled to wear the garments and the witness said that all such Mormons wear the garments as underclothing. Looking at Senator Smoot, Senator Overman asked the witness if she were sure every Mormon in good standing in the committee room had the gar- ments on. “Yes, sir, they have.' voked laughter and t peated: on.” 5 ! Senator Eoraker asked the witness | if she had ever heard of the endow- | ment house penalties being enforced | against any one. She said she had not. Tayler asked if she expected to suf- ! fer by reason of. giving testimony here. | Mrs. Elliott said she expected that her business would suffer. ! ' The reply pro- 1 he witness re- | “I know they all have them CHURCH IN POLITICS. Charles H. Jackson of Boise, | Idaho, chairman of the Democratic | State Committee, testified at length concerning the growing power of the Mormon church and its interference with State affairs, which, he said,-was i made the paramount issue by Demo- crats and Indespendents in the last campaign n Idaho. He sald that apostles of the church from Utah go | ntc Idaho and direct the people how o vote. He told of the vieit of Apostle John Henry Smith for the purpose of direct- ing legislation and said that the in- fluence of the church accomplished the passage of the sugar bounty bill, This measure places a State bounty of 1 cent a pound on all sugar manufac- tured within the State in 1903 and a half-cent a pound on all sugar manu- factured in 1904, It is estimated that the bounty in 1903 amounted to $76,000 and in 1904 to $150,000. There are four refineriee in the State, and President Joseph Smith of the Mormon church ! is president of three of them. The | fourth factory was constructed recent- lv and is centrolled by Gentiles, IN CONTROL OF IDAHO. Speaking of the influence of the | church on the political affairs of the | i State, Jackson took as an i ustration the defeat of Covernor Moriison for a | second nomination. He declared that Governor Morrison’s administration | had been <atigfactory to his Republi- | can constituents, but that he ran In this con nection Jackson said with emphasis: “It is impossible for any man or any party to stand against the Mormon church in Idaho.” In describing the present condition of the State, Jackson said six of the | twenty-one counties are known as sol- idly Mormon and that in all of the | southern counties the Mormons are in | control, and in that way, ne said, the church practically is in charge of the Legislature, political conventions and all gatherings at which the delegates are elected by the people. e — .

FIXING RATES | FOR RAILROADS state Commerce Takes Up the Quarles - Cooper Bill VIEWS ARE CONFLICTING Edward Bacon of Milwaukee ' Does Not, Favor Recommen- : dation Made by Roosevelt e WASHINGTON, Dec. 16. — The Quarles-Cooper bill, permitting the Irterstate Commerce Commission to fix railroad rates, was the subject of | a hearing to-day by the Senate Com- | mittee on iInterstate Commerce, at which Edward B. Bacon of Milwaukee, chairman’of the executive committee of the Interstate Commerce Law Con- vention, held last summer at St. Louis, was the principal speaker. In re- sponse to an interrogation from Sena- | tor Tillman, Bacon said he was con- fident that the bill represents ' the wishes of the business interests in providing for suspending the findings of the commission in cases of appeal. | “Then,” said Tiliman, “you do not| agree with the President, who recom- | mends that a rate fixed by the com- ;msslon shall go into immediate er-i L.’ Replying to questions by Senator | Cullom, Bzcon qsald that the shippers would prefer the suspension of rates for sixty days pending an appeal, with | a time limit on appeals, to giving un- limited time and allowing the rates to go into effect immediately. He said in response to Senator Elkins that in it should be ultimately decided e t the rate fixed by the commission | Is too low, the railroads would have recourse on account of the loss! sustained, but he agreed with Senator . Tillman that such a condition wouid be no worse on the railroads than | would a rate that is too high would | be on the shippers. | H. R. Fuller, representing the rail- road labor organizations, made an argument against the bill relieving narrow-gauge roads from some of the requirements of the safety appliance law. — PRIVATE BILLS Baker of New York Calls for Beef Trust Report.

The final vote was preceded by the presen- tation of many amendments and a general discussfon of them, as well as of the provisions of the bill. The dis- cussion was confined generally to the the amendments suggested by Demo- cratic Senators several Western Re- publicans voted in the affirmative, but Senator McCumber was the only Re- publican who voted with the Demo- crats against the final passage of the bill. The most notable change made during the day was the lowering of the rate of interest on the railroad bonds to be guaranteed by the Philippine Gov- ernment from 5 to 4 per cent. The bill as passed exempts from taxation all bonds issued by the Philip- pine and Porto Rican Governments; authorizes municipalities in the Philip- pines to incur a bonded indebtedness amounting to 5 per cent of the as- sessed valuation of their property at 5 per cent interest; authorizes the Philippine Government to incur a bonded indebtedness of $5,000,000 for improvements at 42 per cent interest; authorizes the Philippine Government to guarantee the payment of interest on railroad bonds at the rate of 4 per cent per annum: provides for the ad- ministration of the immigration laws by the Philippine authorities; estab- lishes a system for the location and patenting of mineral, coal and saline lands; fixes the metric system for the islands and gives the Civil Governor the title of Governor-General.
