strong guard over their prison room. Last
night, about IL o'clock, while nearly every
one was in bed, except the ever-watchful

windows of the prison room and made for

Delegate Cannon's Opinion OF 70
Iygamy.
WASHINGTON, January 10.
Delegate Cannon, to-day, referring to the

cohabitation against parties who would
otherwise escape under the statute Of limita-

p%oltroons if they yielded their religious
principles to the dictates OF the Supreme
Court.
