special dispatch TO the Press.
WASHINGTON, December 20.
Delegate Cannon of St. Lake was
asked by the Press correspondent to-
day if the story that many Mormons
were moving from Utah into Idaho was
truef al am not" he said, "aware
that there has been any general move
ment of this kind. On the contrary, l
think many Mormons have left Idaho
within the last two years for Arizona.
A number of years ago many Mormon
families settled in what they supposed
was the extreme northern part Of
Utah. They paid their taxes to the
Government Of Utah and were reoog-
nized as its citizens. some time later
when the boundaries of Idaho were 40
curai ely located the people found they
were residing within the limits Of the
latter Territory instead Of Utah. The
severe winier oftwo years ago drove o
large number Of them southwark into
| Arizona" "Do the Mormons expect
any different treatment under Gar
fields administration than they have
received from President HayesP" ask
ed the correspondent. 'Of course,
they hope to obtain fairer considera-l
tion," was the reply. al have not
seen General Garfield since his election
but his bearing as q member Of the
House always led me to regard him az
a verv fair man. l think that Hayes
undertook to persecute the Mormons
to make political capital among ortho-
dox religious people," do you think
he was asked, "that the Campbsllites
regard Mormonism with any more ia
vor than the Methodists?" 'T'm sure
can't tell" said Mr.. Cannon
"There is similarity between por-
tions of the Campbellite and Mormon
Churches. Each believes in faith, re-
pentance and remission Of sin by bap.
tism. Sidney Rigden, who, with Al
exander Campbell, formed the Camp
bellite Church, was very prominent
Mormon. When Joseph Smith died
Rigden contested with Brigham Dung
for the supremacy in the Church -
Young beat him and Rigden left the
community. 1t may be, however, thai
the Campbellites will regard the Nor
mons with peculiar aversion from the
very fact that Rigden was Nor

VENOR AND THE SIGNAL
OFFICERS.

WARRINGTON, Dec. 23.-The hero
of the day is Venor. The Signal
Service officers for some time have
regarded his predictions with respect,
though, naturally, they feel a little
jealousy that, single-handed and
with very limited data, he should
outshine them in his brilliant pre-
dictions.
They say Venor is q scientific
man, who works on scientific prin-
ciples. They, themselves, do not
feel justified in taking any risks,
although in the Signal Office they
are often satisfied what the weather
will be a week or fortnight ahead.
The desire of the officers 10 to extend
the limits Of their predictions az
soon as an accumulation of data and
better familiarity with phenomena
shall make such development safe.
The snow that is one of the great
est ever known here.
Professor Vennor's latest pre-
dictions were contained in a COM
munication of the 9th instant, to the
editor of the Montreal Gasette, in
which he said I'm order to illus-
trate the working Of my system Of
weather forecasts, permit me to
draw attention to the following -
After, perhaps, couple of days Of
mildness in the third week of this
month, the 18th, 10th, and 18th, if
not more dates, will usher in q
period of extreme cold. with gales
Of wind and snow-storms from Mou-
treal to beyond Toronto. There
may possibly be heavy blockades OF
at Western points, but in any case
the sleighing will continue good

spending day in pleasure. Nature

strains of music in the open air with

sound died away? After music, the
