THK OMAHA DAILY BEE: FRIDAY. DECEMBER 11. 190.1. WILL ASK ALL ABOUT SMOOT Etmte'a InTeBtigating Committee to B Untuaally Thorotigli. WILL WANT THE ' CHURCH OATH fropoar to See II It la Incompatible -with lb Oath the I laa Ma a Took Vnaa Eaterlna; the Senate. WASHINGTON, Dec. 10. Chairman Bur rows of the senate committee on privileges and elections, has called $l meeting1 of the committee for Saturday to consider whether ajijr action shall be taken on the protests and petitions for the expulsion of Senator Reed Bmoot of Utah. There is an Immense ma of petitions comtn from forty different states. Congressional' callers at the White House are manifesting increasing Interest In the case Involving Ihe spat of Senator Bmoot and the lndlctlona now ore that the contest, whk-h, is certain to result from the present agitation Will rival In importance and in earnestness the ca?e of Brlgham 11. Hubert before the house of representatives a few years ago. While the president is familiar with the development thus far In the Bmoot case, no effort Is being made by either side to draw him Into the controversy, the realization being general that It Involves a question which the senate must determine for Itself. Te Be Vers- Thorough. That a' through Investigation of the subject will be made by the senate com mittee on privileges and elections now appears tp be beyond doubt. By those who are pressing the Investigation It Is said It will be more comprehensive and searching than similar Inquiry ever lias been. An effort will be made to ascertain accurately the attitude of the Mormon church toward the government of the United States and to learn whether or not a member of that organization Is bound by any pledge or oath, the' taking of which Is Incompatible with his oath as a senator of the United States. It is believed by some at least of those who are opposing Senator Smoot that any effort made to prove he Is a polygamlst would result In failure, and while that point cannot be said to have been abandoned ab solutely, it Is quite certain the opposition will conrentrate Its endeavors to prove that the position he holds In the Mormon church Is Incompatible with the oath of allegiance he has taken to the United -States. That proof must be ample. In the ' opinion of senators, before he can be unseated. As to the ability of the opposition, to, Senator Bmoot to estab!ih such a 'proposi tion there. Is a wide divergence of opinion among the seators, but there Is a practical agreement that if It should be established , Its result would be the unseating of the Utah senator. Julius Kahn against Representative Uv ernash, representing the Fourth California district, will lis t.ihen up by the house sommlttee on elections. Preslaeat oer TraTtlla Mas.

Mr. Folk made a brief talk In favor of the measure and was questioned by sev eral senators to bring out the extent of Its effect upon Insurance business. He wes followed by I. A. Varaya, superin tendent of Insurance of Ohio, who 'offered amendments which were Intended to elim inate many of the objections made by representatives of legitimate Insurance companies and of members of the com mittee who expressed their desire to pro tect such Interests. Senator Burton said he knew of one company In the stare of Kansas, capi talised at $1,000,000, which had been refused a 'charter to do business In tiiat state, though the company was solvent. He de clared that the charter was held up by the Insurance commissioner because of a personal feeling against certain offlolals. John R. Walters, a New Tork Insurance broker, who filed authority to speak for 443 manufacturers who have Joined to write their own Insurance, protested against the bill, thofigh he said the amend ments offered would satisfy his Interests if It were not for the fact that to place the bill on the statute books would offer the opportunity for . amendments which might Injufe the legitimate -companies.

When the house convened today Mr. Van Voorhels (O ), for the committee on appro priations, reported the pension appropria tion bill and gave notice that he would call It up tomorrow, for consideration. In reply to Mr. Payne he said it .was the purpose of the committee to have a full debate on the bill. Mr. Lamar, dem., rising to a question of privilege, after announcing that he would offer a resolution In' which would be em bodied a Joint resolution of the Florida legislature, said: "In pursuance of that Joint resolution I desire to Impeach Charles Swayne, judge of the United States district court for the northern district of Florida, of high crimes and misdemeanors." The resolution, after reciting In the pre amble the resolution of the Florida legisla ture, says: That the committee on Judiciary be directed to Inquire and report whether the action of the house Is requisite concerning the official misconduct of Charles Swayne. Judge of the United States district cotrft for the northern district or Florida, ana say whether said Judge had held terms of his court as 'required by law, whether he has persistently absented nimseir rrom tne saia stste and whether his acts and omissions In his office of Judge have been such as. In any degree, deprived the people of that dis trict of the benefits of a court therein to amount to Injustice: whether the said Judge has been guilty of corrupt conduct in onice and whether his administration of his office has resulted In Injury and wrong to liti gants of his court. The resolution further authorizes the ju diciary committee to send for persons and papers and to do other things essential to the matter. Mr. Lamar moved the ' adoption of the resolution. " . Mr. Grovesnor suggested there should be specific charges; that the house should go slowly and be extremely careful. "The house Is not a grand Jury," he said. Mr. Lacey, rep. (Ia.), moved to refer the resolution to the committee on judiciary The humblest citizen, he said, was entitled to be furnished with specific charges be fore being placed on trial.

Mr. Mann, rep. (111.), asked Mr. Lamar If It was his idea that the Judiciary committee should proceed with an inquiry without specific charges. - Mr. Lamar replied that the committee has such power. Mr. Lacey, rep. (Ia.), spoke for his mo tion to refer.
