Marshal Ireland's "Conspiraey. 81

The rumor that Marshal Ireland had
been arrested on the charge of conspiracy
gained an extensive circulation on the
streets this morning, and not few of the
Marshals friends called at his office to
learn the truth. The report probably
originated from chip in this mornings
Herald, in which the reporter endeavored
to couch some of his pretended humor.
The fact is, that while Mr.. Ireland has
not so much as heard of any such arrest
further than from the idle gossip, it is
pretty well understood that there is being
a quiet effort put forth to prove that
Ireseder had been employed by the Mar
shall or his deputy to entrap some of the
Mormon authorities, and if successful in
this that "a case of conspiracy will
actually be worked up against the U. S.
officials. Verify, it is sad to conte mplate
three years in the Pen.

Hampton,s Appeal.

The petition of B. Y Hampton to the
Supreme Court asking for rehearing of
his case on the grounds that the jurv
which was obtained by open venire was
partial one, etc., ETC., was argued and
submitted this morning. Messrs. Ben
Sheeks and Theo. Burmester occunied
much of the time in reviewing the !ex-
ceptions that were taken to the former
trial, and w. II. Dickson replied yerv
fully to the arguments. The decision.
which 1T is expected will be rendered to-
morrow, will be anticipated by a great
many who are acquainted with the facts.

Too Much Chastity.

The Judiciary Committee of the House
held a somewhat stormy session this
morning, for the purpose of considering
the chastity bills introduced by Repre-
sentatives King and Mclaughlin. There
was enough OF the proceedings heard to
give casual listener pretty definite
opinion that both bills will be reported
unfayorably. It is rather general i'm
preston outside the legislative chambers
that neither bill is we'll drawn. Mr..
Mclaughlin admits this in connection
with his, and says it was thrown together
hastily, so thatit would come before the
House at the same time as Kings bill.

Temnle Of Honor NSurprise.0

About fifty persons assembled at the
hall of American Temple of Honor No. 3,
last evening, by significant invitation.
Shortly after their arrival the doors were
thrown open and the party escorted into
the hall, where very tempting repast
was spread, intended as att for Tat"
for the surprise entertainment given by
the lady members of the Order just three
months ago. Ever since this surprise
last October there has been growing
disposition to reciprocate, and this was
accomplished last evening in an exceed
ingly pleasant manner. The entertain
ment was made interesting by speeches,
with a feeling that the surprise" had af-
forded enjoyment to all present.

RATHER A FORLORN HOPE.
The Section of the Statute Under
Which Jones and Treseder
are Liable.

The point made by the attorneys, YES.
terday, in the Jones-Treseder bribery ex.
animation has been greatly magnifed.
Some persons have made themselves be-
lieve that the fact of Mr.. Franks not
having been duly appointed Deputy
United States Marshal till the day of the
second meeting between himself
and Treseder and Jones will
inquire with much Importance in
the trial. This will prove an
extremely fragile foundation for anv
erection of hopes; and for fear the two
interested parties should build up any
such phantom and afterwards suffer the
disappointment that is inevitable the
DEMOCRAT, who believes in defending and
sympathizing with the friendless and un-
fortunate, publishes the following statute
under which the charge was made; it is
