Do Mormons still have their secret powers?
Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) do not and have never had secret powers. They do have priesthood power, which is the power of God manifest on earth. Through this power they are able to heal the sick and perform other miracles through the laying on of hands according to the faith of the recipient. They believe that this is the same power Jesus gave to His Apostles in the New Testament, resotored to the prophet Joseph Smith by Apostles Peter, James, and John in 1829. The priesthood is no secret. Anyone, Mormon or not, is welcome to recieve or watch a blessing and add their faith to the blessing. Check out the "Related Links" to learn more.

I am aware that the Church of England claims apostolic succession. I would be interested in knowing from what lines the Church of England claims succession.?
According to both the Apostles' and Nicene creeds (which the Church of England hold as authoritative), the Church of England or Anglican Church believes and sees itself as part of the Apostolic church. This means that they see themselves as based on the authority and teaching of Jesus' appointed Apostles, which is now available in the 27 books of the New Testament. That is, the Anglican Church claims to be based upon the teaching of Jesus' Apostles. However, this is different to apostolic succession. Apostolic succession is the belief that the Bishop of Rome has been conferred the authority of the Apostles (and particularly the Apostle Peter who is traditionally held to be the first Bishop of Rome). This is something that that Church of England does not hold to or claim. Not only is the Bishop of Rome (we'd call him the Pope) not recognised as holding any office within the Church of England, the hierarchical heads of the Anglican Church are first the sovereign of England, currently HRH Elizabeth II, and the Archbishop of Canterbury, currently Dr. Rowan Williams. Further, this most senior 'church man' in the English Church is appointed by the Queen on the recommendation of the Prime Minister of England. Especially under Dr. Williams, the Archbishop of Canterbury holds little actual power, let alone that which could be construed as apostolic succession.
