Gen. Howard received confidential
orders at Omaha, on the morning of the 9th
inst, to dispatch troops to Salt Lake City,
where an outbreak of Mormons was threatened.
He accordingly sent out special train with
batteries b and of the Fifth Artillery, and
placed in readiness for marching orr - ten
companies of infantry and one of cavaiI.. The
troops at Fort Robinson were also ordered to
the City of the Saints. All the troops from the
Department of the Platte were ordered TO Fort
Steele, W. T., TO await orders. Fort Douglas,
Utah, was reported hemmed in by the Mormons.
The cause of the trouble was the killing of Nc
Murrin, Mormon, at Salt Lake, by United
States Deputy Marshal Collin, whose assassin
ton was plotted. When McMurrin fell, with
the remark that he was killed, great crowd
at once collected, and knowing /: would
mean death to he taken by the city
officers, who are Mormons, Collin hast
ened to surrender TO the Federal au-
thorities. He was placed in the PEN
itentiary for safe-keepihg When this
became known the fury of the Mormons at
tanned desperation. The Salt Lake Herald at
once issued extra editions calling upon the
church to avenge the murder of saint and
used every means of melting mob violence.
In quick response the faithful of the church
assembled at their political headquarters, the
City Hall, and organized for the murder of Col
lin. The mob at once made a rush for the
penitentiary, where they found that United
States Marshal Ireland had prepared to receive
them. Seeing an attack at that time would be
useless, the mob fell back and the strategy OF
the Mormon officers was brought into requisi-
ton, but all their schemes TO secure the body
of Collin failed, United States Attorney varian
assuring them that Collin would remain in the
custody Of the United States.
