FANNY DAVENPORT ARRAIGNED.
Judge HOge Poses Before the Court
ns the Distinguished Church
PrOtcgc.

When the Third District Court opened
this morning Attorney Dickson rose and
said: "If your Honor please, in the case
oi Fanny Davenport, indicted for con-
spiracy and keeping house of prostitu-
ton, ask that the defendant, through
her attorney, be arraigned."
Judge Hoge-We are ready to plead,
your Honor. I will stand up (posing) us
Fanny Davenport, according to the sup.
gestion OF the District Attorney. We
waive the reading of the indictment, and
enter plea of not guilty.
Judge-Is this your name on the in.
dictment - your true name? [Grcat
laughter in court.
Mr.. Dickson-How about the other in
dictment; do you waive the reading OF
that also?
Judge ioge here engaged in a whis-
pered conversation with Mr.. Dickson, and
the latter afterwards announced to the
court that it had not yet been decided
that Mr. Hoge would act rs counsel in the
other case, so that it might be well to
hold that over for the present.
The spectators and ATTORNEYS had be-
come so thoroughly convulsed with
laughter over the amusing spectacle OF
Judge lioge posing rs the capricious
Fanny Davenport, that it required some
to recover, and the Judge him
sell gave evidence OF having thoroughly
appreciated the situation.

Groo Pays 1860. 20 for Liberty.

Last evening, after the DEMOCRAT had
gone to press, Commissioner Mckay de-
MED the application OF Isaac Groo, pray
ing for liberty on the grounds OF his
being unable to pay the fine and costs in
his case. The Commissioner held that
it had been shown in the examination yes
terday morning that Groo's possessions
in Wyoming exceeded the 500 prescribed
in the oath or affidavit, and it was there.
fore ordered that the fine and costs.
amounting to $369,7O, be paid forthwith.
or that the prisoner be remanded back TO
the penitentiary.
Mr.. Mckay expressed the opinion that
he believed Groo amply able to discharge
the obligation, and this opinion proved
to be well founded, for within a very
short time after the Commissioners Or
der had been issued the necessary
amount was handed over and Mr.. Groo
marched forth free man. He had been
permitted to visit the Herald office dur
ing the afternoon, in the custody OF Dep
uty Franks, and it is supposed he received
AID from his son, who is editor-in-chief OF
thG Htfatd.

LATEST DISPATCHES.
rhreo MEN Killed and several
wounded ut st. Louis.

Nv
ST.. LOUIS, April 9.-1he deputies and
Guards at the Louisville & Nashville yards
near Broadway fired into crowd of 200
str;ters about $50 o'clock this afternoon.
Five men and one woman were shot. Three
men were killed and the woman is
snpposed to be MORALLY wounded.
The killed are Pat Bristol, an employe of
the water works, and not a striker; Oscar
Worthington, q painter; John Bohman, n
water works laborer, and not striker;
Major Hickman, shot in the head and shout
der, and will probably die; Mrs, John
Pfeiffer, shot in the back and probably NOR
tally wounded; an unknown man, shot at
the bridge approach.
They made no attacks on the yards, as
first reported, but were standing ON the Ca
hokia bridge near the Louisville & Nashville
wards ieering at the guards, when without
apparent provocation the deputies leveled
their rifles and fred two voleys.
The crowd Immediately separated, run
ming in all directions, and the deputies ran
over the Cahokia bridge towards the Mis-
souri, River bridge, still holding their rifles
and firing to cover their retreat.
When Il was known by the strikers that
the guards had fled, the former returned to
recover their dead. They found Pat Bris-
coll and Oscar Washington lying on the
Cahokia bridge, and were dead when found.
John Brohman was also found on the bridge,
but showed signs of life, was taken to the
switch and died in few minutes. Mrs
Pfeiffer was found lying on the railroad
about 100 yards from Cahokia bridge.
The crowd, after firing began, ran up
Broadway shouting: "To arms!' "To arms!'

THREE MORE INNOCENT U. CPS.
bailey, Jensen and Hansen, of mill
Creek, Hauled In by the
Deputies.

To-day was sort OF April conference
for the Marshal's Office Bright and
early this morning Deputies Franks,
Smith, Nandercook and Cudihee started
out for Mill Creek, six miles south of
town, taking with them the necessary
facilities for gathering their victims in.
The houses of George Bailey, the we'll
known aparist, James Hansen and An
drew Jensen were all visited. Mr.. Bailey
made the deputies at home and served
breakfast for them with becoming hospi-
tally. Each OF the parties named above,
with their several friends and one or
more neighbors, were all subpnnaed and
brought to town, excepting Mrs. Jensen
No. 2, who after she was subpnnaed, took
her two weeks old baby in her arms
and skedaddled over the hills and far
away. The husband assisted the dep
utics in the search, but every effort TO
find the missing link proved abortive, and
the discounted officers were obliged to
turn their faces homeward without her.
1t TRANSFERRED that Mr.. Bailey had been
absent for number of weeks, working
as Il carpenter, and that he returned
clandestinely last evening only to be
scooped in by the deputies net at the
rise OF this mornings sun.
When the entire party alighted before
the Marshal s Office there was general
impression that ii was the return OF the
Provo conference visitors, and the limited
apartments upstairs were sorely strained
to their utmost capacity.
Later in the day parties were con-
Quoted to Commissioner McKay's office
in the midst OF the usual protestations of
innocence, which have become .monoto-
nous to the ears of the officers. Mr..
Bailey was particularly emphatic in his
demurrer, but the sequel will tell.
The examination before Commissioner
Mckay was rs amusing as it was disastrous
to the parties concerned. The testimony
OF most of the witnesses was OF the char
acteristically evasive kind, but Mr.. Dick
son brought out more than enough evil
dence to convict every one OF the defend
ants. 1t was understood that Hansen and
Jensen intended pleading guilty, in fact.
they SO expressed themselves to the Off
GERS, but after they had consulted with
attorney Jas. III. Moyle they decided to
make fight OF it, and the witnesses
worked very industriously to the same
end.
Each defendant was required to give
bonds of 81 900, and the principal wit
nesses were placed under bonds of 5000
each. Some considerable time was con-
sumed in obtaining the necessary sureties,
but they all "got thar" and will return
to their homes in Mill Creek this even

RECORDER CANNON's CONTEMPT.
He Has an Examination Before
Judge Zane and is Discharged.

County Recorder George NJ. Cannon
was .arraigned before Judge Zane this
morning to answer the Courts charge OF
contempt in the matter of his alleged in
! huencing Juror n. II. Greene. The clerk
read the statement setting forth Mr.
Greene's version OF the interview, and Mr.
Cannon was asked ii he desired to inter
rogate Greene before making his own
answer. Mr.. Cannon expressed de.
sire to do this, stating that Greenes state
ment was incomplete, and the latter took
the stand. He was asked a number Of
questions which brought out the facts
that the conversation relating TO the
Morris-Mammoth suit had been sug-
gested by Greene's own remarks on the
merits OF jury trials. Greene had stated to
Mr.. Cannon that he himself had a
case coming up in court, and this led TO q
discussion as to respective merits OF sub
hitting civil cases TO jury or to a judge.
Mr.. Cannon, it seems, referred to the
Morris case as an illustration Of how I'M
satisfactory jury trials sometimes are,
stating that one juror in this instance,
[the trial last year, had stood out against
returning n verdict, and the voice and
judgment OF the other eleven were thus
unfairly silenced, and it TRANSFERRED after
wards that the party who hung the jury
was interested in protecting the defend
ants. Mr.. Cannon denied having
Greene was II Juror, and insisted that
when he (Greenc) told him he was on the
panel he offered no further remark, more
than In did ACT Uich IN INF
juror. He had said to Greene, when
speaking Of the Morris suit, that he had
been very much interested in it, because
OF being n son-in-law of Mr.. Morris and
believing that il verdict was not obtained
for the amount sought to be recovered
that it would probably ruin Mr.. Morris.
Mr.. Greene was questioned by the
Judge as TO whether Mr.. Cannon had ex-
pressed his views on the Morris matter
before or after he had been told of
Greene's being a juror, but Mr.. Greene
was unable to remember exactly regard
ing the point. He acknowledged to the
Judge that in his opinion Mr.. Cannon
had not spoken of the matter with any
intention of influencing him as a Juror,
and the Judge concluded that he would
give Mr.. Cannon the benefit of the
doubt and discharge him. Be-
fore doing so, however, he took
occasion to impress on Mr.. Cannon's
mind that an official OF experience should
know better than to approach Juror, on
subjects before the court, whether or not
the latter was drawn for any particular
case. 1t appears that Mr.. Greene's state
ment and your own fail TO agree as to
the point at issue viz: whether YOU
offered your remarks on the Morris case
before or after you had been told he was
a juror and l am disposed to give you the
benefit of the doubt.
Mr.. Cannon conducted his own case
and appeared to tell u perfectly straight
story.
