Billposters Have to Cover Actresses' Limbs Before Advertisements Can be Displayed. Detroit, April 8. Detroit is laughing over the results of its latest moral streak. The common council adopted a resolution forbidding the exposure of highly colored theatrical posters and similar advertisements. The Griswold street theater had a line of variety show paper to put up ou Monday which came within the prohibition. It was held off the board3 until today, when the billposters made its posting feasible. They cut red paper into dress forms ifnd pasted them over the bare limbs of the actresses in the lithographs. The posters are now at-tracting much more attention than they would have been if left alone. NEW YORK MONEY AND STOCKS. New York, April C.

A claim against the city in the sum of il00,857.11, less $362.50 for extra work on Parley's conduit, and in favor of Dubois & Williams, et al., was referred. The city attorney filed an opinion in the fnatter of .he resolution relating to the oc-cupation of certain portions of South Tern- - rJe street by the railway tracks of the Utah di Nevada Railway company and the Saltair Railway company, in which he says that he has been unable to find in the city records ihat the city at any time granted "the tirst-,'iame- d company a franchise whereby it was given any right to use or occupy any por- tion of the street, and upon inquiry he was creditably informed that the only right that tie company has to the street is the claim if adverse possession. The weight and tendency, he says, of the authorities are that the company could acquire no right or title to the street by adverse possession; therefor", if he is correct, his opinion is that "the Utah fc Nevada Railway company c ould be compelled to accommodate its use of the street, and occupy only such portion thereof as the council might After grant. a large amount of routine business the board adjourned.

The republicans of the house yesterday for the first time this session, resorted to filibustering, and the enormous democratic majority of two-third- ? found it impossible to overcome the skillful tactics of Representative Burrows, and force the free wool bill to a vote. It has been ru-mored for some time thai the democrats would attempt to pass tho Springer bill be-fore the close of the legislative day, in order that it might have political effect in aiding the democrats to carry Rhode Island. What-ever intentions there may have been some days ago of rushing this bill through the house, there is no doubt that the plan was finally abandoned before the departure of Chairman Springer yesterday for Virginia Beach. It had been generally understood by the members that it had been agreed by the committee on ways and means, democrats and republicans alike, that immediately after the house went into committee of the whole a vote should be taken without debate on it. Mr. Burrows' amendment, which was pending, to strike out wools from the first section, and the effect of this amendment is intended to strike out the sense of the bill. But when McMillan closed the debate on the first section, limited to one hour, the repub-licans moved that two hours be accorded. Pending the discussion of the question, Speaker Crisp spoke sharply to Mr. Bur-rows in a manner which that gentleman re-sented, and impelled the republicans to re-sort to filibustering methods to accomplish their ends. Under the rules, the democrats were powerless, and the house finally ad-journed. TO PRESS THE ISSUE. The Regulars of Both Political Parties Will Consent to No Family Compromise. The National Conventions Will Be Appealed to for a Final Settle-ment of the Issue. EITHER RIGHT OR WRONG- - Hon. 0. S. Varian Delivers a Solid and Logical Addrass to Utah Eapubi cans. THE CONVENTIONS IN MAY, The Tuscarora Meet and Admit a IJig Batch of New Candidates Tlie Tribe 'tjfht Changed to Thursday Night of Each Week The Political Bulletins. "The action of the committee on creden-tials on the contesting delegations is a hard thing to foretell," piped a prophet this morning, "but my individual belief is that no nominations are valid unless they de-scend through the committees appointed by the Ogden conventions of 1838. It is a very plain proposition. The commission of those two bodies not having expired, a call for a convention by any other lacks a vital principle the creative. However, the na-tional convention will not consider itself obligated and the result can be but one thing a compromise." "And its terms?" "To run iu both delegations. That would occupy but two more chairs and p'raps they may argue that bringing the family together may mend the jar." "There'll be no compromise there," interposed a bystander, "the stakes are altogether too high. "We are going to appeal to the highest political authority in the nation to determine a question, an issue of vital importance to the republicans of this territory. The organizaiion of 1SS, which was recognized at Chicago, is either the republican organization of today or it is nothing at all. We have proceeded under custom and under rule and shall press the issue to finai determination. We are either right or we are wrong. We are willing to abide by the decision of the convention." Similar views are expressed by the demo-crats. They will consent to no compromise. The issue will be pressed to a decision and the questiou on both sides is were the com-mittees appointed at the Ogden convention to elect delegates to the national convention in 1888 appointed for four years and until a similar convention selected their succes-sors? Both sides vie confldeut. K.i.ul'l ii an Committee... The republican territorial committee closed its labors last evening and adjourned subje t to the call of the chairman. The territorial convention will be held in this city on WednesdaT, May ISth, at noon, the county convention for the selection of delegates to the same to be held on ednes-day- , May 11th. The following apportion-ment was made for the respective counties comprising the territory: Beaver, 12; Box Elder, 8; Cache. 4: Davis, 6; Emery, 2; Gar-field, 2; Grand, 2; Iron. 2; Juab, 12; Kane, 2; Millard, 2; Morgan, 2; Piute, 3; Rich, 2; Salt Lake, Oti; San Bete, 4; San Juan, 2; Sevier, 2; Summit, 28; Tooele, 6; Uiutah, 2; Utah, 12; Wasatch, 2; Washington, 2; Wayne, 2; Weber, 34; total, 223. During the progress of the meeting Hon. C. S. Varian delivered a most able repub-lican address. He took up the history and recited the struggles of the party in this territory, all going to prove the party organ-ization here for years past and its right to recognition. Judge Varian also showed how the mormon republicans had dealt in the foulest sort of duplicity politic-ally by which the' had received recognition from the last conven-tion. His adiress was listened to with marked attention, and was finallj" adopted as a manifesto of the republicans to be promulgated in this territory. Iu con-cluding he sr.id: We hold that this com-mittee is the only authorized agent of the republican party iu Utah, and tnat its pow-ers may not be abrogated until the party acts through the regular channels. It can recognize no convention or committee which is not regularly constituted by the majority voice of all entitled to speak. Therefore, in accordance with custom and in obedience to the obligations imposed on it by its creator, the last territorial republican convention, it now issues a call for the regular territorial republican convention. The Tuxearoras. The meeting of the great democratic tribe in the wigwam Odd Fellows blaca last even-ing was one of the most enthusiastic in its annals the attendance rising to nearly 200 while five new candidates were admitted. The reports of officers indicated the most flourishing growth, while it was decided to hold weekly conclaves in the future that the steady flow of new members might be accommodated. It was thereupon ordered that the tribe nights be changed to Thursday instead of Tuesday as heretofore, the change to commence next week. Colonel Hank Barnes, member of the dem-ocratic county comn Htee, reported having called upon Judge Boyle whom he asked to call a meeting for Saturday night next at the federal court chamber, that action might be taken denouncing the action of the rump committee in calling under the mantle of democracy a territorial convention at Ogden. The judge had re-fused to call the meeting and on an appeal to the committee a majority of its members had signed the call. It was then decided that the Tuscaroras meet cn mase at the Knutsford hotel on Saturday evening at 7 o'clock and to the music of a band march to the court cham-bers where there will be a feast of elo-quence. Discussion on the proposed Tuscarora junket to Chicago on the occasion of the democratic national convention elicited the fact that neariy the entire number required had been enrolled. The train will consist of a solid vestibule and will be oue of the most conspicuous ever scheduled out of Zion. i ANGER LEADS TO SUICIDE A Girl of Bethlehem Takes PiJjk.

Sixty Thousand Persons Witness and Participate in the Ceremonies at the Block. ADDRESSES OF THE DAY. Presidents Woodruff, Gannon and Smith Speak to the Great Multitude. THE CHORAL EXERCISES,' The Musses Vote in Favor of a Resolu-tion Appropriating the Money Ne-cessary to the Completion of the Temple Interior In-cidents of the Day. The laying of the four corner stones of the mormon temple on April 6, 1853, under the direction of Brigham Young and in tl; , presence of the argonauts witnessed i B splendid sequel today at the poising i the figure of the fabled Moroni in the pre.. ence of nearly if not fully o0,000 persons. Never has that religious empire, girdled as it is, by its massive walls, been peopled by such a throng, while upon tlie outside was gathered a multitude thatj watched every movement of the leaders. For days the provincial towns and neighbor-ing stakes had been emptying their popula- - tion into the lap of the metropolis. There were persons there who had witnessed the full significance of the laying of the corner stones. With some time had dealt gently. They had experienced the change of years but the same religion held them together today that united them forty years. Polyg-amy was the only leaf that had been torn from the old ritual. Otherwise they wor-shipped the same today as they did upon that far-ar- t ay yesterday. Mothers came in thousands most of them accompanied by oue or more of the "spring crop." There were infants in arms and in-fants in carriages. There seemed to be no exhaustion in the source from which they rose. Young men and young women were also gathered and all the varieties of native Utah, the products of its golden soil were to be seen. In the presence of this people the exercises took place and at their conclusion the thoroughfares xjreseu'-u-d a spectacle rarely seen in auy country. And, what legends, what romances, what tragedies of of nelf d" nial, of uersonal sacrifice is grown upon the walls of that ma-jesti-structure. For nearly forty year has it been moving slowly and almost im-perceptibly to its present grandeur. A splendid symbol is it today of the patienca the fortitude and tlie perseverance of the thousands who contributed to it. Through a riiijht hitch the augel Moroni was not unveiled at the afternoon proceeding "out the stars and strioes in which he is en-veloped will be off by evening and under the glare of cunningly arranged electric lights, he will stand out in view of the city. On a platform in front of the Temple sat the twelve apostles, the presidents of stakes and their counselors, and the bishops. In the center on a raised dias sat President Wilford Woodruff, George Q. Cannon and Joseph F. Smith. The baud played America; the Tabernacle choir sang the "Temple Anthem." Then Joseph F. Smith offered prayer which was followed by another anthem. The list of articles to be placed in the cap-stone was then read as follows: A large cop-per plate engrtved by David McCasscr, giv-ing the names of dignitaries of the church at the laying of the first stone on April 6, 1853, the present dignitaries, the different archi-tects and buildeis who have had chtrgeof the workings of the temple; the book of mor-rnom-the book of covents; key to the dox-olog-the bible; the compendium; photo-grapb- s of Joseph $mith, Hiram Smith, Brigham Young, Hober Kimball, John Tay-lor, and President Woodruff, and views of the temple as it stands at present. President Woodruff then arose and said: "Jfparlmi all y of the houxe ff Israrl, and ye nation df the earth, we will now lay the cup j stmie 'iinn the greatest temple of r,ur (rorf." He then turned around and pressed an electric button back of his chair and the cap was in place. Then arose President Alonr.o Smith. He raised his voice and the vast multitude join-ing him, a mighty shout went up that fairly made the earth tremble. Twice was it re-peated as the the vast concourse shouted: ttHotanna1 ffoswma, ITosanna; To God and the IjOinh; Amen, Amen, Amen." Then followed a hymn "The Spring of (iod Like a Fire Burning" and it was fol-lowed by "The Temple Ode" by the Union Glee club. This was composed by Prof. C. J. Thomas; words by H. W. Naisbitt. It is as foliows: All hail this glorious day, This grand, auspicious day. The vales resqoBd, the mountains ring, The capstone on the Temple bring, With gladsome peat, united sing, Of tnithV still widening way. The tinif is r at hand, When Christ shall come and claim His own, And 'mid His Saints erect that throne Which on earth must stand. All hail that glorious day, The shadows melt away; The skies are bright, Soon truth and right, Shall come to earth from Zion's light. And man redeemed at last shall shine, Our Father's image, ail divine. Apostle W. M. Lyman then arose and offerer the following" resolution, which was adopted with a mighty cheer: "Beuevhi;) that thr inst'ructions of President Wootlrnjt' rttftettng the early completion of the Tempi' is the word of the: Lord unto us. Mesolveii, That this asx n hly pledye themeelves itvlieidually and collectively to furnish as far as ; t.mij fr ttetied '' MOM p that may he necessary toofmpteh the Temple at the earliest time jxissi-l,- h , si, that the dedication may take place April e, 1893. He then stated that he would start the contribution with a check for 1 1000. Then followed music by the hand, an an-the-by the choir and the benediction by Geo. Q. Cannon, and the sixty-secon- d con ference of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-da- y Saints was at an end. i Indians as Voter. Washinoton, D. C, April 6. Iu the de-bate on the Indian appropriation bill yester-day Senator Palmer appeared to be startled and surprised by learning that there were Indians who were United States citizens and voters. He was imformed by Senator Petti-gre-that the Sisseton Indians in South Dakota were citizens of the United States and voters, having taken their land in sev-eralty, and yet they had agents over them. Senator Allen told him how, in the state of Washington there were six hundred on a reservation immediately adjacent to the city of Tacoma, who were citizens of the United States and voters controlling in all local affairs, evendown to the precinct and county matters. Senator Palmer confessed that the fact that United States citizens had agents over them was startling to him. It might be true, as a matter of law.

A Letter from Joseph Silver in Regard to the Situation in l'tah The Anti-Polyg-a- Manifesto. Editor The TiMfcs: It must have been a pleasure to every republican who read the speech of Judge J. R. Mciiride published in the Trihti.ne of Sunday, the 3d inst., which he delivered on taking the chair at the "repub-lican" convention ia Provo on Friday last. From the Judge's standpoint I think it ought to be considered a flue argument in support of division on party national lines, etc. To my mind it is a most excellent speech and well worth the careful reading of every lover of fair piny and free speech. It occurred to me, however, while n ading the speech, that the JuHge lost sight of one very important r'act pertaining to the disciples of Joseph Smith, the "Seer." . OtUV; Is it possible for one who sincerely relieves m mot-monis- its origin direct from God to and through Joseph Smith, to be altogether a good citizen of the United States of America? Is not such a one very likely to reason thus, whether it is better to obey God or man. On this point men. mem-bers of the mormon church, sincerely be-lieving in the law of polygamy, as revealed by God through His prophet Smith, the out-look being favorably (home rule or state-hood for instance) for its practice and be-lieving by the practice thereof they will gain great exultation in the world beyond and be under condemnation if they do not practice it would they hesitate long before deciding the matter. Now I suppose the great mass of the mormon people do really accept mor-monis-with all that the word implies as of divine origin. Therefore the only correct conclusion we can arrive at is that such persons Do believ-ing must necessarily regard all laws, etc. , political, religious or otherwise emiuating from such a source far superior to man-mad- e laws. I doubt not that there are some members of the mormon church who have-ver-serious doubts of the divine authen-ticity of mormonism, but not having the moral courage to declare their convictions such cannot be relied on to favor entirely the laws and government of Ame "ica as they should. Now 1 want to say just here, at a national election, being a republican, had 1 the right to vote that vote would be :ast for the republican candidates. Here in Utah, however, were there but two political parties, namely, republicans and democrats, a mormon, notwithstanding his abilities may qualify him to till the position to which he aspired, his moral standing unquestion-able, receiving the nomination of the repub-lican party, with my present convictions I could not vote, for the reason I should doubt nis loyalty to "Old Glory," the stars end stripes of the American Union. His leanings most likely would be first, last and til the time to his church. Not giving much, it any thought to the interests of the country and people at large. Now a word in regard to the sincerity of Wilford Woodruff, the present head of the Mormon church. Old as he is, and some gentiles as well as mormons may reDose con-fidence in him, I must say that I doubt his sincerity. I am of the opinion, and I am free to express that opiniou, that I believe it impossible for Mr. Woodruff not to know that mormonism at its very inception was conceived in iniquity. Is he not aware of the fact that instead of Joseph Smith re-ceiving revelations from Jesus Christ, that the very first he did receive came from an priest (I could here give the name of that priest), and which revelations was afterwards published in book form enti-tled, "Book of Commandments to the Church of Christ." Mr. Woodruff also may be knowing to the fact that the same was pretty largely the "Book of Mormon." Oh, if some one would but give us just a few actual facts concerning the cunning tricks of this same t, and how through him Joseph Smith became author, president, proDhet, seer and revelator, and finally a : lartyr, to what has been wickedly cailed the cause of Jesus Christ, what a skaking among the mormon dry bones there would be.
