WHAT THEY SAY OF TUCKER.
The Report That He Will Lobby
for Mormon Gold Very Likely
10 be True.

A prominent politician OF this city iii
we can be said to have such species
here in Utah), in commenting on the
news from Washington in relation to the
retention OF Mr.. Tucker by the Mormon
Church, was heard to say "There is
probably good deal in that report about
Congressman fuckers brother being
in the employ of the Church
in connection with the effort to
head off further anti-Mormon legislation.
When was in Washington recently my
attention was called TO the fact of this
man Tucker being intimately associated
with A. NJ. Gibson, the old Mormon
standby" around the lobbies of the
Capitol. had known of Mr.. Tucker and
OF his connection with some notorious
lobbying in, 1876, when remarkable
case was being carried through
with money, according to repute. Know
ing Judge j. Randolph Tucker person
ally, however, and being assured that he
himself was beyond reproach as a man
of perfect integrity, ridiculed the idea
that his brother could influence him in
TeBdIu W Tic uCtlOll vi VIC llOuSc JutiiCi-
airy Committee OF which he is chairman.
The brother, who is reported to have
accepted n retaining fee from the Nor
mon church, is lawyer and profess
sional lobbyist, and is known as such by
everybody in Washington. That the de-
lay on the part of the Judiciary Commit
tee in their consideration OF the Edmunds
and other anti-Mormon bills is due in the
least degree to any influence or pressure
brought on Chairman Tucker by his
brother, / do not believe for one moment.
Those measures were given to sub-com-
mittee, and the application from Mr.. Game
that the Church's attorneys be allowed
sufficient time to prepare their arguments,
which they desired to submit before any
action was taken, was granted; and this
is what is causing the apparent delay.
am very confident that several Influential,
lawyers are working hard in the interests
of the Church at Washington, but would
not be afraid to pit Mr.. Baskin against q
dozen of them"

TAYLOR BERGEN IN THE TOLLS.
Accused of Having More wives
Than One, Hut he Denies It,

John Bergen, the tailor, who for sew
eral years was manager OF the United
Order of Tailors establishment, but oil
late has been in business for himself, on
Main street, was arrested to-day and
taken before Commissioner Mckay. He
did not seem to have caught on to the
popular method of waving examination,
and was not represented by any attorney.
Maria Mettson and Anna Black, two re-
puted polygamous wives, were interro-
gated by the Commissioner as to their
relations with Mr. Bergen, but both OF
them claimed to be dodgers in the
gentleman's house, one paying S4 and
the other s. per month for
their rooms. They had both paid their
rent money promptly, according to their
own story, but neither one OF them could
produce a receipt. They claim to be
childless and unmarried, and state that
they have lived in Mrs. Bergen's house
without associating with him or his
family One of them had lived in the
house eight years, and was not on speak
ing terms with Mrs. Bergen No. !, while
the other asserted that she only knew
Mrs. Bergen by sight.
Mr.. Witzell, the musician, and his
wife were the only other witnesses ex-
amined. They had resided in Franklin
avenue, in the Thirteenth ward for five
or six years, Immediately opposite Ber-
gems house. They were not Intimately
acquainted with the Bergcns, but had
both heard Maria Mettson and Anna
Black called bp the name of Mrs. Bergen,
and believed that they were understood
to be his wives by the neighbors,
Commissioner Mckay considered there
was sufficient grounds established to
warrant placing Mr.. Bergen under 81 800
bonds, and Bishop Milan Atwood, OF
the Thirteenth ward, and his Counselor,
VIM. Naylor, became the sureties, and
also signed the 5000 bonds of Maria
Mettson and Anna Black. The witnesses
were requested to appear before the
Grand Jury at 10 O'Clock tomorrow
morning, and Mr.. Bergen will await the
result and appear for trial when the time
arrives.
1t is astonishing to see how outraged
some parties pretend TO feel when ar
raigned on the charge OF unlawful cohab
itation. Mr.. Bergen, like others who
have gone before him, was sure that M
case could be made out against him, ant
stood appalled, when he was requested tc
give bonds

RETURNED FROM THE EAST.
MIR. muIioy Brings Bnck Horse talk
Hut No Political News.

Mr.. T. +. Mulloy, who has been absent
in the East for a month or more, returned
home last night. II anybody thinks the
gentleman has been lobbying at Wash
inpton for the Marshalship or any other
Federal office, the suspicion only ex-
presses the positive lack OF acquaintance
with Mr.. Mullov, who was never known
to have had even momentary political
aspiration. The army of reporters
who have swooped down upon
the unpretentious gentleman since his
return have been met with the chilling
rebuffs: az didn't learn n thing about
Utah politics, and didn't try 10; and no.
body worried me with interviews on Utah
affairs; ii they had they'd have got left,
for Pm not in the political business. !

than in politics, Il good deal. No; did
not purchase any thoroughbreds. The
horses | bought are for Our own use in

Mr.. Mulloy has had most pleasant

in splendid condition. Moral: When YOU

TO THE KNIGHTS OF AMERICA.
An Address by the Executive BoaId
in Which Jay Gould Is scored.

ST. LOUIS, March 25.-The Executive
Board OF District Assemblies lOl, 10Y and
93, knights OF Labor, have issued an adj
dress to the knights OF Labor and Trades
Unions throughout America, intended
as reply to the statements made by Mr..
Jay Gould last night in regard to the
strike OF the railroad employees of the
Southwest. After quoting from the stat
ment OF Gould the sentence saying that
the employees upon his roads have pre-
sented no grievances to the management,
the address says:
1--WE have wearied the press and worn
the types OF the world in stating our
grievances, and demanding an opportu-
nifty TO present them TO Mr. Gould and
his lieutenants. We have offered through
the highest channels that represent us in
the nation, to mecth him upon any field. We
have sought, we have plead, we have de-
manded that we be heard. To all this
Gould has turned deaf ear, and now
before the world We challenge him to
hear our complaints. Before the world
We impeach his veracity when he said
we have not presented them. Before the
world let the trial go on"
Referring to the decision OF Mr. Gould
TO sue the organization OF the Knights of
Labor, the address says:
Mr.. Gould and his counsel well know
that such silly carnations are an insult
to the intelligence Of our school boys and
challenge to the courage OF our grand
mothers"
The address closes with an appeal to
the strikers TO stand firm until their or
-ganization is recognized and their de-
mands granted.

Callaway's Opinion.

General Manager Galloway, of the
Union Pacific Railway, speaks thus to an
Omaha Republican interviewer about the
present labor troubles; "No thinking
man can fail to acknowledge that we are
passing through an alarming crisis in our
history. Combined capital has wrought
advantages and benefits for mankind,
not unattended with evils. Itremains to
be seen whether combined labor can, by
wise leadership and moderation, lessen
these ills, or whether by misdirected eff
forts, put forth in violence and disorder,
all the virtues of brotherhood will be
buried in the tyrannical suppression OF
the rights and freedom OF the individual.
The Knights OF Labor have become 4
powerful association, whose strength ii
improperly directed may become its
weakness. Recent events seem TO indi-
cate that while it demands OF the en-
ployer equity in dealing with his employe
II fails in many cases to Concede what it
itself eXacts. The infancy OF the brother
hood of locomotive engineers, one OF the
strongest and most ably conducted labor
organizations in the country, was filed
with Just such errors, and intoxicated by
reason of its great strength, was constant
lY being led into strikes upon false issues
and ilimsy pretexts, This power has Ill
timately taught its members the necessity
OF conservatism and strikeis now very
rare occurrence among this excellent and
intelligent body OF men. Grand Chief
Arthur knows that the suggestion of a
wrong is much more simple than the
practical application OF q remedy and has
inculcated lessons OF moderation.

AN EX-ALDERMAN ARRESTED.
Joseph III. Dean Taken i'm on the
Usual Charge.

A good deal of surprise was caused
when the last nominating convention OF
the Peoples Party, in reporting the list of
nominees for municipal offices, dropped
so uncerimoniously the name of ex-alder-
man Joseph Fl. Dean. 1t was known
that he had been one OF the most active
members OF the City Council and that he
had been equally faithful in his devotion
to the upper house duties. 1t was gen.
orally conceded, too, that he was much
ADLER officer than some who were re-
tanned, as well as those new ones selected.
His friends, some OF them, concluded
that he was reserved for some more eX-
allied position, but when he recently as
sumed the duties of clerk in Judge
Pyper's court. the uncertainty that sur
rounded his drop from the Council only
increased.
This morning when he was seen under
the escort OF Deputies Franks and Cudi-
hee, 4 faint glimmer OF light broke in
upon the dark doubts, and the cause OF
his strange removal to many seemed
quite apparent. Mr.. Dean was found by
the officers at his home in the Nineteenth
ward about o'clock this morning, and
| tne WARRANT lot HIS arrest WIS ac-
cepted with considerable establishment,
His wife and several members OF the
family were subpGnaed, and also Flor
ence Ridges and her parents and brother.
This lady is the reputed plural wife, and
was found at her parents home in the
same neighborhood. Deputy Smith Wis
tied one or two other parties and subpo-
naed them to appear at the Marshal's
office at 10 o'clock. Mr.. Dean himself
was taken there by the officers, and tele.
phoned for sureties and for Attorney
James II. Moyle. His bond OF Loco
was signed by Policeman John w
Sharp and James Anderson, the
Deseret NeWS reporter. He expressed
the same kind of injured innocence that
II. w. Naisbitt did, and assured the
deputies that it was his father that was
wanted and not himself 1t is true tina
the elder Mr.. Dean has been on the 'un
derground Tor some time past, but the
officers gave the assurance to the sol
that in the present instance he was tn,
man wanted. Owing to there being SOM
work before the Grand Jury which re
quired Mr.. Dickson's attention, the ex
animation was postponed till o'clock.

i, Prominent Illinois Man Suicides

Surveyor-General Dement, received n
dispatch to-day from his former home in
Lexington, Illinois, stating that the Hon.
William NJ, Smith, for two terms
Speaker OF the Illinois House OF Repre-
sentatives, and for several years chair
man OF the Illinois Railroad and Ware
house Commission, had shot himself
through the head.
Mr.. Smith was one OF the most promi-
nent men OF Central Illinois, being at
the time OF his death engaged in mercan-
tile business and fine stock breeding.
Less than a year ago he recovered from
very severe and prolonged attack OF
sickness, which caused him to abandon
his position as Chairman OF the Illinois
Railroad and Warehouse Commission,
and though his physical condition seemed
to be entirely restored, it is highly proba-
BILE his sad ending was brought about
wholly from the effect upon his mind Of
his protracted illness. No man in Cen
trail Illinois will be more missed than

The Olympic Club.

At II meeting OF the members OF the
Olympic Club held last evening, meas
mes were taken toward reorganization
and Il committee appointed to report to
the Club next Monday evening, at
which time those interested are re-
questcd TO be present. Capable athletic
teachers have been secured, and
next Monday evening at s o'clock the
first classes will be formed and instruc-
ton commenced. The idea OF Il general
clubroom with the necessary cnjoyments,
such rs billiard tables, chess, checkers,
etc, seemed to meet with the hearty
approval of all present last night, and
with these added to the facilities for
physical pleasure which the gymnasium
already affords, the Olympic Club should
soon be very popular institution among
the young men OF Salt Lake.

ITS OWN MOTHERS BABY.
A scene In Court charlottesville
BngIey Parts with the Child.

1t was an affecting scene that was wit
messed in the Chambers OF the Third Dis
trict Court this morning after the Judge
made the ruling determining which one
OF the two dsputants should take posses
sion OF the child in the Olmstead-Bagley
habeas corpus case. The adoption papers
which caused the delay yesterday,
proved to have been drawn up
by some penny-lawyer who didn't
understand his business, and ig-
nored entirely the requirement of the
law, which says that the transfer OF a
child must be done in open court with
the parties present who are concerned in
such action. In this case neither the
mother, child nor alleged foster mother
appeared at the court in Idaho, and
hence the papers were this morning de-
clared worthless and the child was
ordered turned over to its mother.
Nellie Bagley has, during the many
months she has possessed the child, ac-
auired an apparently strong affection for
the little thing, and it manifested re-
markable love for her in return, knowing
her and calling her by the fond name Of
mother. The separation was a pitful
one, and when Mrs. Olmstead took the
child in her arms for the first time in
many long months, there was no sign OF
recognition in the frightened little face,
and the mothers pain was even more
acute than that suffered by Mrs. Bagley.
The Court took cognizance of the fact
that Mrs. Olmstead, the mother, has a
home where she is amply able to provide
for the child, while Nellie Bagley, it
appears, is moving about from day to
day in service.
Mr.. and Mrs. Olmstead will return to
their home at Shoshone at once, and will
take with them the additional joy of their
| lonu.lost child
