THE MORMON PRISONERS
Visits to the Imprisoned Hermsn Leaders
at Camp Douglas.

SALT LAKE CITY, October 2s.-Hun-
drsds of people, principally Mormons,
visited Camp Douglas to day to see
Mayor Wells and the other prisoners.
General Morrow gave the visitors unre-
stricted access to thsir friends, and, by
his courteous remarks and manner, in
spirsd q much bstter feeling than might
have been expected under the ciroum-
stsnces. The arrested parties are quar-
tered In comfortable, well-furnIshed cot
tsgs, and seem quite cheerful. A guard
OF soldiers march to and fro on the out
side.
Elder George T. Connor arrived this
morning from San Francisco, and
preached this afternoon in the large tsker-
nscle to an audience numbering at least
ten thousand. His mind had evidently
undergone remarkable change, for he
counseled his hearers to abstain from any
act Of violence, and to submit 70
the lsT'of God ,snd he would protect them
and deliver them from their prosecutors
The crusade against them he said would
only strengthen and glorify them in the
end: their church could not be over
turnedi their faith was the inspirs-
sion Of the Divine Spirit and would en-
dure forever. Elder Pratt was not so
conservative; he did not want any whin-
ing Judge to say to him as he did to HRw.
no sympathy from any Federal official
he was ready 70 60 to jail fer twenty
years but could not receive pity from such
source. He predicted that God would
totally overthrow or snpihilate the pre-
sent prosecutors OF the Mormon people.
Nothing further has been heard from Or
son Hyde, the apostle. It is thought he
has gone to Arizona or Mexico.
Joseph II. Young. son of Brigham, has
returned to the city but he is not yet ar
rested.
A row occurred late last night between
a Mormon and q United States deputy
marshal, which resulted in the marshal
knocking the Mormon down and sfter-
ward arresting him. For time 1t was re-
ported that an attempt had been made to
ssssssinste the deputy, and there was
great excitement. All Is now quiet, and
there is no indication of any disturbance.
The lsts arrests have, however, created 8
marked depression In the Morlnon CON-
munity.
A special from Salt Lake states that it Is
doubtful whether Brigham Young will
return until the trouble is over. Delegate
Hooper has gone to see President Grant
to endesvor to effect q compromise by
which the State authorities shall be re-
strained or removed.

NEW YORK GOSSIP.

NEW YoRE, Octobsr g. The COMMITTEES
of seventy have formally Endorsed the
reform ticket.
Nathaniel Sands asks that the charge
against him Of having made morey as
negotiator of city bonds be examined by
q select committee.
Tweed stated to q reporter that he does
not believe that IngerEoll has dsd, but
that he will return soon. He declares his
chances for election will not be i'm
paired by the proceedings against him. he
declines to answer the interrogatories as
to his own line of defense. Irgersoll is
reported to be st Portland, Maine. Both
he and Garvey, who is absent also, are
said 20 be weak men, and that II put TO q
rigid examination they might probably
tell story of fraud.
In the paper Of this week, Mayor Hall
strongly urges the election of Tweed as
senator.
The adjournment of the insurance con.
vention, which was fixed for Last evening,
had to be postponed on account of the con-
vention visiting Connecticut.

E}itOrs AppeaJ-My attention has been
cslIed 70 8 letter IN your Sunday issue in
regard to the Memphis and Raleigh rail-
road. which shows that the Rutbor Is
wholly unscQusinted with the objects and
purposes of the company, misspprehends
the order OF the county court, and IN fact
the whole subject about which he so kind
lv undertakes 20 advise the public re-
rret exceedingly that anything 80 well
cslcul stsd to mislesd the voters should
suusar in print, and I respectfully refer
your correspondent to the order Of the
court which appss1s daily in your psper-
BY references to this, be and the public
viii plainly see thss the Memphis and
Rsleigh railroad company do not ask the
people 10 vote dollar of appropriation to
this road, not dollsr of taxes, and never
will. They simply ask the people to rat
fly the action of the county court-that is,
70 lend the name of the county as indorser
upon $50 600 of the bonds Of the company,
not the county, and they give 70 the
county q lien ON the road, equipments and
everything, 70 protect 1t from loss.
They only ask the county TO aid them
with lis credit to E aish the road. The
proposition is 50 fair snd equitable that
the county court promptly and with but
three dissenting voices, adopted 1t, and
tia peop.e win do likewise.
TIE revenue derived from enhanced
valus of the lands contiguous to this road
will in fifteen years, exceed the amount OF
TIE bonds 20 be ind0rsed. Il is not argued
thst this road viii empty its millions of
cOmmsrce into the lap of Memphis, and
hence the c0mpsny propose and viii build
IL BIZ and with their own capital, simply
asking the county, sitter they have graded,
tied and bridged the entire road, and psid
for it out of Individual subscriptions, to
iudorse their bonds, and thereby make
the same sslesbis, SO that they may raise
the means 10 equip the road. They be-
lieye. however, that this road will induce
che establishment and successful cultiva-
con Of small farms and gardens, the cheap
a,,Sd productions OF which, with its ready
sccesS 20 market, will greatly reduce the
nice o. living in Memphis. This is de-
youtly % Se wished for.
Your correspondent says great deal

will withdraw his opposition on condition
that the railway companies will build q
bridge across the mouth OF the Chicago
river at a cost of seventy-five thousand
dollars, This will probably be
done, and the injunction which re-
strained the sale to the company,
will be withdrawn when this is accom-
plished. There will be no legal obstacle
to the occupation Of the grounds, and the
railway companies will at once procesd to
erect the building.

Thn AdYnncn in Gold.

From Clews b Co.'S Monthly Circular.
Somewhat slngularly, the GoLD PRE'
MUM has steadily advanced since the
cOnsummatiOn Of the loan negotiation; al
event which, as 1t demonstrates a marked
improvement in the public credit, should
have shown its effect in weakening Of
the premium. This anomaly, however
has u very obvious explanation In the
fact that, while the City Banks hold only
$l2 GOO, 000pf specie, and the wants for
customs duties are ut the rate of $17,'
900, 900 per month, the Secretary Of the
Treasury has fixed his sales Of coin FOR
September at the Unexpectedly low figure
OF $8,000,000; which indicates n heavy
reduction during the month In tho already
light supply on tho market. Tho market
Is thus most completely in the control Of
spectators, who can regulate both the pre-.
MUM and the charges on loans OF gold
at what figures their caprice may dictate
AS, from now until tue let Of November
the market will have TO be supplied al.
most entirely from the Treasury sales OF
gold, the course Of the premium and the
extent To which IL is controlled by speCu-
lators, must depend principally upon the
amount Mr.. Boutwell, disposes Of at his
weekly sales. There are many Consldera'
tipns ut present tending legltimatelY tc
reduce the premium; but their effect Il
nullifed by the supply on the market be.
ing kept so low as to enable the Cliques tC
" corner" those who may sell on the pros
pect of lower premium.

VERMONT, II has been discovered, was
never a slaveholding Commonwealth, as
reported In the census of 1900. In the
original census papers for Vermont fol
that year the United States Marshals re-
turned sixteen free colored persons as in
habitants of that State, but tho clerk at
the seat Of government in transcriblng
tho papers for the printer erroneously
placed them under the column OF slaves.
This mistake being inserted in the histories
Of that period, has been repeated in all
subsequent works. An examination into
the original records has discovered the
erraium,
