CONGRESS ENDS MIDDLE MAY Second Conference HeldBetween Mr. Watton and President.

April 15 Kepresentatlve Wataon of Indiana, ho conferred with the. president last night about an early adjournment of congress, and who stated after the conference that the president and the house were In harmonious agreement for adjourning about May t, was sum moned by the president to conference today. Mr. Watson said the president had sent for him to say that he had overlooked the fact that there would be a conference of governors on Msy 13, and that when he had called this conference he had done so under the Impression that congress would be In session. Out of courtesy to this con ference, which will discuss the subject of conserving the resources of the country, especially the waterwaya and forests, the president thought it would be better for congress to remain In session for a few days longer. Mr. Watson said he agreed with the president and thought that adjournment would take place about May 16. Mr. Wat son was asked specifically about putting wood pulp on the free list. His answer was: "How would we be able to do this with out precipitating tariff revision at this session of congress? If we Bend a free wood pulp bill tq the senate the demo crats will tack on a thousand amendments snd we will be forced at once into the middle of the revision of the tariff which will keep congress here for many months longer."

TOWN OF CRAIG WIPED OFF MAP So Far aa Known All Inhabitants Made Ksrape, Taousra Property Lose Will Be Heavy Dam In Danajrer. HELENA, Mont., April 16. A -great body of water, released from Hauser lake by the bursting yesterday of the dam across the Missouri fifteen miles below Helena, is now pouring down the Missouri river. The little village of Craig and Hauser lake have been destroyed by the rushing waters a dozen cabins at Oxbow, where another dam is being constructed, have been swept away, while numerous ranches have suf fered losses. The flood is now within seven miles of Grest Kails, where the Boston and Montana smelter Is situated on the river bank, but the hundreds of employes, work ing all night, have probably saved that plant from serious damage by the construc tion of a wing dam. Couriers on horseback and warning by telegraph have been sent the people living along the river flying into the hills. Only one loss of life Is reported. Csrl Ide, a smelter employe at Great Falls, being swept over the dam and drowned last night while working to save the property. I ncontrolable Flood. An uncontrollable flood Is rapidly advanc ing today upon Great Falls, a ctty of 15.000 population, and It Is believed that the Bos ton and Montana smelter, one of the larges in the world, is doomed to destruction. It Is built on the river bank and fears for Its safely are felt at each recurrence of high water. It employs more than 1,600 men. The employes were engaged all night in the construction of a "wing dam' around the smeller. Preparations have also been made to dynamite the dam at Great Falls from which the smelter secures Its power, and this may be done as a last resort.

At the busineas Session of the annual conference of the Reorganised Church of Jetnis Christ of Latter Day Balnts this afternoon, the matter Inter rupted by adjournment of the session yes terday was resumed, namely, discussion of the resolution looking to the enforce ment of the temporal law of the church, which places the ministry not on a salary or stipulation, but sends them Into tlje ministry on the condition that the 'needs of the family will be provided for. Two motions to refer were before the bouse. one to refer to the presidency an quorum of twelve, quorum of -seventy snd bishop ric, the other to refer to the first presi dency, quorum of twelve and bishopric. At the resumption of this question to day the previous question was promptly moved and a vote was taken, and all mo tions looking toward referring this question to the various quorums were voted down, nd a motion to adopt the resolution was carried by a small majority. Just when thla resolution will be put Into effect and how soon those who have charge q! the financial assets of the church will comply wtth this, and no minister shall be sent out with a "family allowance" It is difficult to say, as these men have not expressed an opinion as to how soon It can be put Into effect. It will mean a radical change In the present arrangements, for, according to present arrangements the ministers, while they sre not What could be called properly salaried ministers, do go out with the promise that their famlllca shall receive at least a certain amount per month, the amount being determined by what is known as the ministerial basis, which provides IIS for the wife and W for each child or de pendent per month, while the expensea of the minister himself are met by donations by friends or by calling upon the bishop or his agents. Cash for Children's Home. A report was read from the committee on children's home, consisting of the bish opric of the church and executive officers of the Daughters of Zlon, which Is an or ganization of women of the church. Indi cated that more than 110.000 had been raised for the Children's Home and that the committee was open to receive propo sitions for location, the indications being, however, that the home will be located either at . Lamonl, la., or Independence, Mo., according to such propositions as might be made by these places. A report was resd from the council of seven, presidents of seventy, recommending the following for ordination as seventy: Birtch Whiting of Wisconsin. L. G. Hol loway of Iowa, George M. Shlppy of Mich igan, Leonard Houghton of North Dakota, J. B. Wildermuth of Wisconsin, D. E. Dowker of Michigan, John Hay of Okla homa. J. T. Hackett of Illinois, J. C. Farnfleld of Ohl5, J. . W. Smith of Min nesota. James E. Kelley of Iowa, Reese Jenkins of Ohio. The recommendation for their ordination was approved with the ex ception of Birtch Whiting, which was de ferred. as he was not ready yet to accept the ordination. The seventy, ss they are termed by the Latter Day Saints, are mis sionaries who are subject to constant mis sionary duty, and their lives are. devoted to the missionary work, so the accepting of the ordination means almost constantly be ing away from home. A recommendation was read from the first presidency recommending ordination as high' priests of Sydney Pitt of Iowa, A. D. Angus of Pennsylvania, A. f. Mc Lean of Canada, John D. Suttill of Provi dence, R. I.; John A. Becker of Delolt, O. M. C. Fisher of Boston and Samuel Harding of Council Bluffs. These ordinations were all approved and probably will be attended to some time tomorrow, although A. D, Angua waa ordained at. today'a session by Apoatlea Gomert Griffltha and I'. W Greene. Mr. Angua left for hia home to night. . . The name of Harry B. French of Colum bus, O., was recommended for high priest snd his ordination was recommended. Rights of Presidency. A resolution was Introduced from the high priests relative to the right of the presidency In district conferences. The prlestsreoolutlon looked to the removal of the right of one of the twelve apostles to preside at district conferences. This sub Ject, It was apparent, would provoke lengthy discussion. A time limit of ten minutes was put upon the speeches on the subject and by a subsequent motion It was deferred and made the special order for the third day of the next annual confer ence. Tonight In the auditorium of the church Biahop El L. Kelley spoke on tJMr subject of equality. Bishop Kelley is the first financial officer of the church. Ills sermon was listened to with the greatest attention, as he is supposed to be authority on this subject. His sermon Indicated that he is a conservative and has a disposition to make progress slowly, though It Is apparent also that he holds the view in common with many of those who might be termed the radical ones, namely that there is ne cessity for some radical changes to be made in present conditions. E. L.

The MoCarren men at this point Inter rupted the proceedings for several minutes with their cheering. aomethlnsr Wrong In Klnna. "In the face of the figures read to thia committee which have not been dlaputed." said Mr. Cohalan, In reply, "it seems to me there is something wrong In Kings county. When the enrolled vote among the democrats drops from 130.000 to something ovtr 90,0"0, It seems to me there Is some thing radically wrong In the leadership,- or ganisation and machinery of the Kings county democracy. "Here stsnds a man who gleefully says thst the man who should now be sitting ss governor of this state was prevented from being elected by his Interference. I make use of this as a sample of the dem ocracy we find ourselves face to face with at the eve of a struggle of national Importance. 'It Is due this committee to know the exalt status of affairs In Kings county. I believe we ought to have before us any explanation 8enator McCarren cares to make concerning the condition of the party of which he is the leader. Thia ia a time when a united democracy throughout the country ahould be at work aeeklng the election to office of every candidate In the democratic column from prealdent down, and here we are face to face with con- dltlona which beggar explanation.', The whole question was left unsettled when the committee sdjourned until 10 o'clock this morning. Senator McCarren nrndo another stand when tho committee on credentials reas sembled, to prevent the Kings county dele gates now on the temporary roll of the convention from being unseated. Chairman Bulger of the committee announced that any documentary evidence would be received. lirom Wanda Charged. Ore by one the contested Kings county districts were taken up for consideration. The affidavits submitted charged gross frauds at the primaries by the McCarren forces and many irregularitiea in the count. Congressman Fltsgerald assisted Senator McCarren In the contest before the com mittee, and In a sharp speech declared that "they are not true democrats who would not stand by the decision of the people when beaten kt the primaries." The coro.-nittee was still hearing evidence when the hor for the railing of the con vention bad long passed, and Chairman Bulger announced that after the evidence had been taken, the committee would go Into executive session to pass Judgment on the contest. At a meeting of the committee on resolu tions at the Victoria hotel, it was unani mously voted to submit the resolution for an uninstructed state delegation to Denver tQj the convention for adoption. The action was taken after tho followers of Mr. Bryan had decided not to present a minority re port C'onarratnlatlona from Bryan. T:ie following telegram addressed to Augustus Thomas, Harry Walker, William Hoge and Manton Wyvell of the Bryan Progressive league was received today from Chicago: t Congratulate you all on splendid fight.

It waa toward the cln.. long and exciting battle before the committee on credentials that the Kings county leader took the floor in anawer to charges of fraud and corruption that had been made against him by the opposition In the Four teenth dlatrlit. It was after 3 o'clock when McCarren got the floor bofore the committee to deny the charges of fraud at the primaries. He de nied absolutely that anything unfair had been done in Kings county. He spoke calmly and Impreaalvely, aa he complained that copies of the specific charge had been withheld from him so that he had had no opportunity to answer theqi In detail. In answer to a question as to why he had not supported Hearst for governor, McCarren said he was proud of the fact that the Kings county democracy had not put Itself back of the candidate of the Buffalo con vention. Hearst tho Whole Troable. "No man Is mote loal to the democracy of tills atate than I am," aald McCarren, "but I alao say that the organization I rep resent will not stand to be dictated to by any group of men to its own deatructlnn.
