The assertion hat the Mormons de-
serve unlimited credit for developing
Utah and saving it from a desert waste,
is a very foolish one. Ii we look at the
history, settlement and present rcsources
of all the surrounding states aud terri
tories, we find that the Mormons have
been at least twenty-five years doing
what Wyoming Colorado, Idaho and
Montana have dune in t.n, and are as
many more years behind the surround

ANARCHISTS TO TRY BRIBERY.
A Theatrical Manager Asked to Fix
as Many of Venire as Possible.

CHICAGO, July Alt is understood
that very sensational discovery has
been made by the detectives who are
watching the anarchist trial. 1t is to the
effect that an organized attempt is
being made to fix the jury. 1t
is said that lawyer and two
business men went few days
ago to John Long, manager Of the Park
Theatre, gave him a copy OF the venire
of the talesmen summoned for the follow
ing day, and offered him 81, 900 if he would
secure from that list a juror who would
guarantee to return a verdict Of acquittal
or secure disagreement.
MANY TO BE SEEN.
Long was asked to see a number of
men on the list shown him, and TO fix
halt dozen or more of them, in the hope
that at least one of the number would be
accepted by the State. Long declined to
do the work, and gave information to the
authorities. The States attorney refuses
to furnish the names Of the three
men engaged in this attempt,
but it is known that the detectives are
looking after them. 1t could not be learned
positively that the officers knew the
names Of the TascaIs. Long. 30 escape
unpleasant complications and probably
out of fear OF the anarchists, has left the
city, and it is said that he has gone to
Dakota.
THE STATES ATTORNEY WORRIED.
States Attorney Grinnel was greatly
worried by the revelation of this plot.
How copies of the venire got into the
hands OF any one outside of the officers
OF the court is a mystery which has
not been solved. All the points in the
conspiracy are being thoroughly in
vestigated by the detectives, and
1t is more than likely that all the
parties concerned will be arrested and
prosecuted to the full extent of the law.
There was found in the hallway outside
OF the jury room yesterday forenoon a card
bearing a skull and crossbones, with these
words printed IN red ink: beware of
the avenger of the Secret League"

these distinguished dignitaries of the
church. Before the hour fixed for
the services had arrived the Cardi-
nal and Nuncio held a reception at
private residence around which fully one
thousand ladies and gentlemen gathered.
Inc house was filled with people paying
their respects TO the Cardinal and Nuncio,
while about two hundred others we're
crowded upon large porch outside await
ing an opportunity to enter. suddenly
the porch gave away and the crowd fell
IN mass among the broken timbers and
debris. A scene of great excitement and
dlsmay at once ensued-women fainting,
while the air was filled with the cries OF
those who were on the porch and the ex-
clam atoms of horror from others outside.
IL was at first feared that many had
been Killed. but fortunately no lives were
lost. About a dozen persons, however,
were more or less seriously bruised and
cut, but none of their hurts are fatal.

BALLOONS AS TELEPHONES.
Strange Effects Noticed in Double
Ascension-Guidin the Vessel.


From the Near York World.
MOHAWK, n. Y, July l0.-Prof. Myers,

days OF this month-at Ottawa, the Cana

low, frail netting of hammock Irvine. and
with this "rudder platform" guides her
balloon as it rises or falls. Three of the
ascensiOns noted were operated with
hydrogen gas, generated from water with
and patented by Prof. Myers.
AT Ogdensburg on Saturday Prof. NV
ers filled two balloons and sent them up
at the same moment. Carlotta had charge
of the Skylark, and an aerial gYmnast,
Edwin Clarage, of New York, ascended
with the Flying Cloud while performing
ieats upon a trapeze bar. The balloons
kept near together, sometimes almost
touching, for nearly half an hour, then on
various currents they floated about higher
and lower, further and nearer, like TWO
butterflies, and Wneu three or four miles
apart conversation was kept un easily
between the aerOnauts, so as TO preserve
cOnjOInted action. says CaTlotta: ''My

made was responded to bv his balloons
rising or falling, or swinging sidewise. as
he weighed nearly three times as much as
the balloon. and consequently swayed it
about with his motions, though they were
all gracefully performed. Finally, when
we were some three or four miles apart

from Ogdensburg, after a ride of about
fifteen miles in one and a quarter hours.
The whole trip was delightful"
Last Monday the balloon Flying Cloud
was sent up at llerkimer. An hour was
spent IN sending the balloon up with
rope attached, and his little tiye.year old
daughter Bessie Aerial on the platform.
She intended to ascend finally with Car

her father TO deny her the pleasure. She
made sucha trip when she was but three

IANsLAUGHTER UNFINISHED.
A jury Discharges the Woman
Who Killed Her Cousin.

CHARLESTON, July 14.-On Monday,
July ., Miss Emma Connolly walked into
Hunters chapel church, in Barnwell
county, while Sunday school was in SEES
sion with a cooked revolver in her HAND,
and passing into pew behind John A.
Steedley she fired pistol ball into Steed-
ley's back. He arose, looked around,
tried to get out his pistol, and at the same
time made for the door. Miss Connolly
snapped her pistol at him again, but
1t failed to go off. Steedey fell at
the door OF the church just outside
and died in about three minutes. Miss
Connolly surrendered herself to the au-
thOrities. Her only excuse for numbering
Steedley, who was her second cousin, was
certain defamatory reports circulated by
him about her and several obscene letters
addressed to her and her brother by him.
The grand jury Of Barnwel! county
found an indictment against her for
murder on Monday. The trial came off
to-day and resulted in her acquittal.
Since the commission Of the murder Miss
Connolly has expressed no regrets what
ever. This is the first case OF the kind
ever tried in South Carolina courts.

BITTEN BY A FISH.
Terrible Wound Inflicted Upon
Pass Christian Fisherman.
From. the Neap Orleans Pic,vune.

From the Near Orleans Pic1Vune.
saturday evening the ambulance was
called to the Louisville and Nashville
railroad depot to convey to the hospital
man named John Zarrac, who arrived on
the train from Pass Christian, where he
had been severely wounded by some
species of fish.
Zarrac stated that he had been seining
during Friday night and Saturday morn
ing and was hauling his fish car to a point
near his nut at about . O'Clock yesterday
morning. He was wading in about 30
inches depth OF water when the tish-he
thought shark-cUt his right Leg almost
to the bone,
The wound, which was in the calf Of the
right leg, extending from the ankle up,
was about twelve inches long and very
deep, and bled profusely. He made his
way ashore, where the hemOrrhage was
checked after considerable difficulty and
lew stitches taken in the wound. He
was advised to come to the hospital and
boarded the train yesterday afternoon.
Larrac is 40 years of age and has been en-
gagged in fishing and Grabbing to supply
customers at the Pass.
The appearance of the wound was such
as to cause the surgeons to discredit the
assertion that shark had inflicted the
wound. Zarrac heard no cOmmotiOn in
the water prior to the time he received
the wound nor afterwards, and had
shark attacked him, such a fish would
nave made noise as he turned on his
back, for shark never attacks with his
dorsal fms TO the surface of the water.
Had shark bitten him the wound would
have been jagged and the flesh torn,
while the fan would have dashed the wa
ter in his efforts to tear or bite the limb
off, and such, Zarrac says, was not the
case.
The impression prevails that he was
attacked by a sword fish, for the wound

be inflicted by very keen knife.
