says that he would not be afraid to load a
train OF flat cars with railroad iron, and
on top OF each car set one engine, and
then haul the train across any bridge the
road has. The weight then would not be
sufficient to cause detection of one inch
in the bridge. The Dale Creek bridge in
Wyoming, which is $50 feet high, daily
stands the test of from two to four Of these
big engines attached to one train, aud it
gives no sign OF weakness.

CHICAGO, Ill., July IA pale.faced.
little woman, giving her name as Elizabeth
Tumbull Ruttor formerly of North
Shields, England, was picked up on tho
street today apparently fainting from
hunger. She claimed to have had moth
ing to eat on her four days trip from Og.
den, L. T., to Chicago, en- route to her old
home in England. She told terrible
story OF experiences among the Mormons.
Her young son, she stated, had been in.
duced against the wishes OF his parents to
join a party OF emigrants organized by
Mormon missionaries in England. Not
hearing from the huS, who II was after.

elders from writing, the father frantic
with anxiety, followed to Utah. lie found

Joseph llolbcrt, but was unable To save

Utah were intercepted, and others
substituted urging her TO come 20 Utah
with the missionaries She obcyed and
claims the women in the party were sub
jected TO fearful indignitcs enrOutc by tho
elders. Ruttcr was murdered shortly after
she joined him. lie had inadvertently
given young Mormon an inkling of his
plans 10 find his boy and escape with his
wife. The Mormons asserted that Ruttcrs
death was accidental. She was dcfuuded
by llolbert Of her husbands savings, but
fleeing TO Ogden earned enough money
working in a hotel TO pay her passage
home. The amount Of railroad fare was
larger than she expected, and sooner than
delay longer she had deprived herself OF
food on the long journey to Chicago.

Of holders, 1t is merely question OF right.
The State is responsible for the deposits
and II should pay them. 1t owned the
Bank OF Tennessee, and like all owners,

bility. In winding up any bank the
depostors are first considered. II should
have been so in this case, and would
have been but for the dcmagogues who
for years played fast aud loose with the
State credit for the sake Of political gain

About o'clock yesterday a seyen-ton
fine conductor cable was successfully laid
across the river from the old gas works In
South Memphis. 10 point directly oppo-
site on the Arkansas shore, about 100
yards below the pier Of the bridge. Fore
man Hart, assisted by corps Of compe.
tent men, conveyed the cable from barge
10 the top Of the bank, through which
trench had been dug for tho pur-
pose. One end OF the cable
was secured to the cable box pole and
then the barge and tug were placed In
proper position for paying out the cable.
Everything being In readiness, the signal
10 start was given; the tug headed kep
opposite shore and the work Of cable lay
ing was begun.
The tug took bee line direction and
landed the cable safely at the exact spot
selected 10 receive H.
Il has not been many ycan since cable

taken from them by the contractors in

the end OF tho month they did not

clothing. Besides this, they were
housed in mere sheds, slept on straw
