UTAH

Salt Lake, January 2l.-Another
snow slide occurred in Big Cotton
wood Canyon yesterday, near the
Richmond mine. A party of men,
with teams engaged in shaking down
ore in rawhides, were caught by the
slide. and six men named Thomas III.
Broderick, VIM. Ritter, Charles Dib-
bic, James Breeze, Henry Atkins
and Reuben Moore were carried
away and their bodies have not yet
been recovered. George McCabe and
Thomas White were carried away
and covered with snow, but were dug
out afterwards and their lives saved.
The slide extended for a distance of
about one mile, and was about two
hundred yards wide. Yesterday the
bodies of six persons killed by the
snow slide in the City of Alta, were
recovered. Many more are supposed
to have perished, but their bodies are
covered to a great depth by snow, and
probably will not be found for some
time. In one demolished house was
found the body OF Mrs. Carey sitting
in rocking chair with an infant
clasped in her arms; and near them
the husband and little girl, all suffo-
Gated 10y snow. AT another house
was dug out one man alive, and an
other man who had been sleeping
beside him in bed was dead and
still another dead body was found in
tn. same vicinity. There is terror
in these mining camps ana most of
those who can get away will probably
leave but this is difficult and dom
gerous undertaking, as parties will
have to walk and run the gauntlet of
snow slides on their way out Of the
canyons.

THE PLYMOUTH CHURCH TROUBLE
Plymouth church and Mr.. Beecher seem
inclined to stand upon the order Of their
GOING and to take their chances OF an
other Congregational council. Whether
such council will take up the question
Of the scandal itself, or confne its inves-
tigation to points Of order 10 Plymouth'S
treatment OF its members, is yet an open
matter. Plymouth, in reply to Mrs.
Moulton, acceding to her reqests for a
council, states the case to be submitted to
II a. follows
!. Whether you had or were entitled to proper
. whether you ought to have bFen arrlgntd for
unjust charges against the pastor Of th. church.
& Whether We had 4 right, In VieE Of your coz
iessel and pfop0sel absence from the communion
Of any church for Ave years, 10 drop your name
under our ongSStablished rule.
" Whether the excuses alleged BY you justified
your course OF prevented " from holding that you
had abandoned your connection with nL
5. Whether We considered thOse excuses.
g. Whether We ought to have gwen you 4 reclm-
mendASon TO another church.
Under the fourth point, the truth Of
the scandal might he entered upon,
though 1t is doubtful II Mr.. Beecher and
his church intended this to embrace it.
But Mrs. Moulton does not intend that
there shall be any doubt upon this point,
and proposes to insist that the questions
shall be a. follows:
/. Whether the dropping Of her name was in ae-
cordlnce With Congregational usage.
q Whether her reason Tot non.Altendlnce upon
church service viz belief In the guilt Of her pas
TOT Of adultery and perjury, vas ju'tIhcl BY the
truth.
There is thus prospect that the two
parties may not be able to agree upon a
mutual council, II not, Mrs. Moulton will
carry out her purpose OF an ex.parte
council. She and her friends seem deter.
miued to be "vindicated" at Mr.. Beecher's
expense.
Butt she Is not alone Of Plymouth's
members in her aggressive attitude to.
ward the church and Mr.. Beecher. BE.
sides Brother West, whose unceremonious
dropping has been recalled, there are ex.
DsaconS George A. Bell and Charles z.
Duncan and Mr.. Bowen, who don't attend
church, and who consequently ought to
be dropped, but who claim the right to
be heard before the act Of condemnation
Ia passed upon them. Their attitude is
illustrated by the defiant reply Of Deacon
Duncan, who wa, waited upon by com.
mittee OF the church, and informed that,
unless he gave satisfactory explanation,
the committee would be obliged to recon-
mend the dropping Of his name, and who
bluntly answered that his explanation
was "that, on evidence which is satisfAc.
tory to my own mind, I believe that
Henry Ward Beecher il an adulserer
and a periuror." This is certainly not
encouraging 10 further proceedings, and
the disposition Of the church il to let the
srring brethren alone until Mrs. Moul.
toms case is finally disposed Of.

IS August last Father Ryan, a Catholic
priest having charge Of church in Cald'
we'll, Ohio, communicated one Of his
parishiOners, a man named William
Smithberger, on account OF his member
ship in a secret society, the Grangers,
which be had refused to relinquish when
the priest asked him to do so. The affair
caused great deal Of local excitement
and bad blood, and one day Father Ryan
met Smithberger's son on the streets, a
quarrel ensued, and the priest shot at the
young man, without striking him, how
ever. He was arrested and brought to
trial, and Saturday the jury found him
guilty Of shooting with intent to kill.
Father Ryan's counsel fled motion for
arrest Of judgment and for a new trial,
pending decision ofwhich he was removed
to the county Jail greatly prostraIed and
in intense mental agony. The political
and religious features Of the case were
carefully kept in the background dur
ing the trial, which was confined
strictly to legal issues, The Judge in
structed the jury that they had nothing
to do with the merits Of the controversy,
and must render a verdict solely on the
facts Of the ARRAY. He laid down the
law that "over the Church, as such, and
It's discipline Of It's members in withhold
ing or administering OF its rights and
sacraments, the legal and temporal courts
do not profess to have any jurisdiction
or control whatever, nor in any regard,
except so far as il necessary to protect
the civil rights Of it, members and others
and to preserve the public peace. All
questions relating to faith and practice
Of the Church and the discipline Of its
members belong to the properly consti-
tuted authorities Of the churches them
selves" But while holding to the rule
Of law above stated, the Judge also in
slructed that "the law requires no great
er iorbearauce and submission from such
(priests and clergy than from any other
member Of society" all being equal in
its eyes.

fere with any State having just such a
