THE month of February. just closed,
has been made memorable in meteoro-

MISSING DOCUMENTS.
Important Documents Hearing Upon tho
Charges Against Governor Murray of
Utah Mystcriousiy Missing Somebody TO
Get Warmed.

Utah Mystcrlously Missing Somebody To
Get Warmed.
wAgniSGTos, u. G., Feb. "a.
II has just leaked out that important
paper documents In the charge against
Governor Murray have mystcrlously dis.
appeared one Of the most important
documents among those sent from the
Department Of Justice TO Sprlnger's
Committee some weeks since was war
rant issued In Murray's handwriting,
making charges and costs for the sum OF
$50 for service and mileage and other
fees for the arrest OF man who really
walked into Nurray's Office and gave him
self up. The offender, the story goes,
lived some hundred miles from Louis
Vile. The Postmaster at his place Of
residence fancled he had violated the laws
relative TO the use Of mails for lottery
purposes, and so charged. The man said
to the Postmaster that he was ready TO
meet the charges, so they together went
ITO Louisville, entered Murray's office,
where the charges were made and the de.
Tense entered. Murray, however, II is
said, made out warrant with all the
charges, amounting TO olghty-slx dollars.
This was finally disputed when the facts
came out, and Murray reduced II twenty
six dollars. This document, however, In
Mnrry's own handwriting, Mr. Springer
says he considers the most important Of
all the papers sent him, and this one
Is now missing. II was, he said, among
the papers when first sent him, but
not among them when sent the second
time from the Department. Inquiries made
by Springer Of the officials at the Depart
nent OF Justice show that Governor Muir
rays attorney, Mr.. Wilson, Of Louisville,
was probably the only person permitted
10 handle these papers since they were In
the hands Of the committee the first time.
Mr.. Springer proposes TO thoroughly In
yestlgate the matter, and will make II
warm for somebody II II appears that the
document is really missing and nobody
but Wilson had access 10 the document In
the meantime.
