MORE MoRhoSs FOR UTAH.-Among the pas
senGelS who arrived by the Wyoming yester-
day were 10 Mormon missionaries and $50 con-
Vefts, more than one-half OF the latter being
young people. The number OF each sex was
ABOUT equal. All had the appearance OF being
strong and healthy. With the exception OF a
few Scandinayians they were from Great Brf.
tain and seemed content with their future pros
poets. They VIII start for Utah to-day. Since
last spring about 5000 Mormons have arrived in
this country. Geo. Barber one OF the MISSION
aries, said that the converts under his charge
were mostly mechanics, laborers, miners and a
few farmers. "They readily embrace the Nor
mon faith" he said, ''and the question OF polyg-
amy is not ignored. In fact, we find IL one OF
our easiest articles OF faith TO incucate No
