PROCEEDINGS OF THE SESATB
Attesapt ta See a re Asreeaaeat for
Vote Statehood Bill Falls.
WA8HINOTON. Jan. 14. In the senate
today another unavailing effort was maaa
by Mr. Beveiidg to secure unanimoue con
sent to fix a day for taking a vote on the
statehood LUL Mr. Bate spoke for the op
ponents of the biil, saying there were still
a number of speeches to be made. There
was some discussion of a bill permitting
American women who have married for
eigners to regain citizenship In the United
States, but it did not reach a vote.. Among
other bills passed was on protecting th
great seal of the United States against
counterfeiting.
Mr. Dubois introduced an amendment to
the Joint statehood bill prohibiting the
practice or encouragement of polygamy in
th proposed state of Oklahoma and All
sons. The provlskin is in the language of
the Idaho test oath.
The Philippine railroad bill was sent to
conference, with Messrs. Lodge. Hale and
Culberson as conferees.
The senate began consideration of a bill
regulating the restoration to citizenship of
American women who have married for
eigners. Mr. Nelson said that the b'lll was in
tended to pply to women of this country
wh married abroad and who were, dlvoroed
o whose husbands may have died.
Mr. Iepew said It ws not the Intention
of the bill to confine It to widow and di
vorcees, but to all women mho hav foreign
husbands. The Women surTrarlsts and the
Ladle of the American league, he said,
took exception to the fact that women lost
their citizenship by marrying a foreigner,
while men dd not.
Mr. Lodge suggested an amendment con
fining the operation of the bill to widow
and lawfully divorced women.
Mr. Tillman protested against the amend
ment as discriminative agslnst "grass wid
ows." Mr. Popew defended Internationa! mar
riages as nstural and due to the "rood,
old-fashioned American reason or propin
quity. Mv observation Is," he added, "that
the title generally chases the girl and not
the girl the title," "
The amendment wss accepted.

CONSIDERING CHIEE 3EITRAL1TT

WASHINGTON, Jan. 14 -Mr. Takahlrs,
the Japanese minister, had a long talk
with Mr. Loomls, the acting secretary of
state, today, about the Chinese neutrality
and Russlt's circular not to th powers
on the subject. So far as the press dls
patches how there ar alleged Instance
specified In the latest Russian note cf (Vio
lation cf neutrality by China that have
not been mentioned In previous notes on
the subject and replied to by Jsps. Whether
the Japanese government will se f.t to
further rp!y probably will not be de
termined tintil the official text of the note
has become known. It can be stated, how
ever, that the attitude of Japan regarding
China's neutrality remain unchanged.
Th Japanese government was quick to
respond to Secretary Hay's not to th
power urging the respecting of th neu
trality and "administrative entity" of
China and it is believed that Japan will
be greatly opposed to th suspension of th
agreemert of the belligerent to limit th
cone of operations In th effort to adhere
to Secretary Hay' request. In th event,
however, that Russia determines to with
draw her adherence to this principle it
will be necessary, for Japan a the other
belligerent to follow suit, and she probably
will do it quickly If Russia reaches this
decision.
There I already abundant evidence in
diplomatic circles that the power proposed
to urge upon Russia. Informally possibly,
but none, the less strongly, the universal
menace that would be constituted by the
upheaval In China that will certainly fol
low a violaUoB of its neutrality by either
of the belligerents.

James E. Lynch of Salt Lake City was
the first witness today. He 1 a democrat
and a non-Mormon. Attorney Van Cott
examined the witness concerning the
statement that Angus M. Cannon, hi
trother-in-law, had said he had witnessed
the marriage of Abraham Cannon and Lil
lian Hamlin on the high seas In 19. Mr.
Lynch said he Investigated th statement
by Angus Cannon at the request of E. B.
Critchlow and found that Ar.gu Cannon
was not In California in 1S96, but the wit
ness admitted that his brother-in-law had
made th statement. He declared, however,
that Cannon was drunk when he said It
Chairman Burrows asktd Mr. Lynch
concerning the feeling of young Mormon
on the question of polygamy. The witness
said they felt that the practice must ba
done away with, but be had heard noth
ing of the young Mormons making a pro
test to the beads of the church.
Hugh M. Dougall of Suringvlile. Utah,
who explained that be was "fired" from
the Mormon church, was called to the
stand. He is postmaster of hi town of
J.S00 Inhabitant He could think of only
five polygamists In Springville and said
there had been no new polygamous mar
riages there since 1890. His expulsion from
the church in 1S74 or ISTi. be said, had not
made a particle of difference in bis busi
ness, even though a majority of his busi
ness came from Mormons.
Wltaess Took Endawsacats.
As a Mormon he tt tbs endowment In
1SG2. He was about 25 years old then and
was married at that time, which, he aaid,
was the only time he had been married.
About 150 went through with him. Mr.
Worthlngton read the oath of vengeance
given by certain witnesses, and Mr.
Dougall said the oath was to avenge the
.blood of the prophet or martyr on "this
generation" and not "on this nation," as
had been testified.
Mr. Dougall said he had served In the
legislature and was elected in a Mormon
county, after his expulsion from the
church. His testimony as to tbc aenUnv-nt
In regard to prosecutions of polygamists
conformed to that of other witnesses
called for the defense, to the effect that
such prosecutions were not feasible.
Chairman Burrow, asked th. witnes. to
1 tte the nature of the ceremony per-
formed when he was married in the en
dowment bouse, and Mr. Dougall replied,
"I do not care to tell that, senator."
"Was there a penally attached if you "re

'Yes, sir."
"What was that penalty?"
"I decline to state."
"Was it severe?''
"As I remember it, it was."
"Was it death?'

"I don t believe I care to answer any

"You have stated your recollection of a
part of this ceremony and yet you decline
to state the wboic of it?"
"Yea, sir."
"You were married when you took th
endowments?"
On that day. yes, sir."
Continuing, he said that one could not be
married in the temple until he had taken
the endowments, but that other legal mar
riage ceremonies were performed outaide.

of separation from tne church your obli
gations are still binding or you"
'Yen, sir. I have consclent lo1 scruple

Chairman Burrows askM Mr. Noon
In regard to the endowment ceremony, nv.i

not say whether there was a change in

reilled.
Mr. Dougall was recalled and asked
whether there was anything In his endow
ment oath' incompatible with hi allegiance 1
to hi state' and the nation. He replied
that there wa nothing. Mr. Noon was
recalled and answered tha same question
in th negative. Chairman Burrows again
recalled Mr. Dougall, as several senators
wanted to knew why he would state a
part of the ceermony and would not state
it all.
He said he could not remember the exact
wording of the obligation of vengeance,
but was sure it was not hostile to the
government and that it was exclusively
religious and not related In any manner
to civil or governmental affairs.
William Hatfield of Salt Lake City was
sworn. He was a Mormon until he wa
S years of age, and then drifted away
from the church. He testified that po
lygamy was decreasing and that he had
known of no plural marriages since IRK).
Mr. Hatfield took the endowments at the
time h was married. Hs wa 21 years
old then and left the church about a year
later. Soon after he was sworn the com
mittee took a recess.
OFFER OF COLONIES
(Continued from First Page.)
Chamberlain laid undue stress on the fact
of a colonial offer, and that their policy
depended for Its suooess on being able to
strike a profitable bargain with th
colonies. That was to misconceive th
whole position. Every true imperialist
must deslr to develop every portion of
the British empire to Its utmost capacity,
and, even If the colonies were Indifferent,
still he would say, "Let us give them a
preference, because it is to the political

talking of preference they were thinking
of people. The strength of a white emplr
did not depend upon Its area, but upon Jti
whlteman power. At present Great Britain
wa the great empire, containing individual
colonies exceeding the sue of the Germii
empire, but with a total white population
not much larger than that of Japan, and
substantially Jess than that already under
the rule of the German emperor. Great
Britain had colonies all over the earth.
It wa. time to concentrate, to organire
and to develope. and the only method of
peopling the waste places under Great
Britain', flag- was the constructive policy
of preference.
As ta Geverameat Policy.
Mr. Ackers-Douglas, the home secretary
this week addressed a meeting of the
Herne-Day Habitation of the Primrose
league. He said that the policy of the gov
ernment with regard to the fiscal question
was a purely defensive on. It was not a
policy of protection as protection wa for
merly known, but was one to secure free
trade. It bad been said that they wanted to
dump that policy on the country, but noth
lng could be more absurd. The govern
ment had never proposed to deal with thi
subject during the existence of the present
Parliament; they were anxious to take th
country into their confidence before they
departed from the well-trodden paths of

If winter is to be dreaded for its fnows, icy, rutting winds and damp, unpleasant weather, it is more to be
dreaded because it brings with it the most annoying and disgusting; of diseases Catarrh. The changed condition
of the weather brings on "bad colds" which irritate the inner skin and tissue, and tber secrete an unhealthy
matter that is absorbed by the blood and scattered all through the system in its circulation, and at the first sign of
winter the patient begins to "hawk and spit." All the mucous membranes and tissues of the body are affected by
this disease, and the filthy, poisonous matter finds its way to every part of the body, making the sufferer dull and
half sick all the time. The bead and eyes have blinding aches, the stomach bloats, the hearing- is often affected, and

ritory of Paaaoaa.
MOBILE. Ala., Jan. 14 The American
Banana company, through H. L. McConnell
of Mobile, has ssked the State depart
ment at Washington to Intervene ln It
behalf on account cf alleged Interference
by the Costa Rican government with the
fruit company's planting, railrcad build
ing and other operation. In the territory
now belonging to Panama, but at one
time under the Jurisdiction of Costa Rica,
and ha. asked for damages ln the sum of
12.210,0X1. The matter is now before the
State department ln Washington. The
trouble dates back to the summer of 19US.
when the Costa Rican government. It Is
alleged, slightly Interfered with the sur
veying of ths company's railroad route,
but when the Vnited States government
at that time Instructed its minister to
Costa Rica to use hi. good office, to pre
vent any further Interference, Costa Rica.
It Is understood, having denied Interfer
ence and disclaimed right of Jurisdiction,
subject to the rendering of -the Loubet
award on September 1L 100. Prior to that
dat the territory had for a number of
years been In dispute between the repub
lics of Colombia and Costa Rica, but un
der terms of a special agreement wa
under temporary Jurisdiction of the latter.
Tli at dispute was submitted to President
Loubet of France for arbitration and his
award fixed this territory as Colombia's.
Cargo ts Cenflsrated.
After Costa Rica had, ln November. 180S.
disclaimed tha right of Jurisdiction, snd
under that disclaimer Mr. McConnell con
tinued his work by planting fruit and
preparation for building the railroad and
improving the port of Gandocan. the
latter part of July, 1304, the Costa Rican
government. It Is alleged, sent an armed
force to Gandocan and intercepted a valu
able cargo of railway supplies, and after
permitting the discharge of the greater
portion of the cargo confiscated the por-.
tion so discharged and stopped all rail
road and other work at Gandocan.
The Costa Rican government I. still la
control of the territory and continues to
prevent the progress of work, it is aaid,
although the Panama government, which
succeeded to thi. territory through Its
secession from Colombia, ha. declared Its
sovereignty and right of Jurisdiction and
ha. since, in an official communication to
Mr. McConnell. admitted hi. right of pos
session. Mixers Defeat Gaardasaea.
At the Toung Men' Christian association
last evening the Mixers defeated th

The game wa one of the City league
