MORMON EmIgratIon in Norway.

WASHINGTON, Oct. l6.-The United
States consul at Christiana, Norway, has
sent the following dispatch to the state
department:
At the %semi-anuual conference lately
held in this city by Mormon residents it
was reported hat the aggregate number
of Mormons in Norway was l40, 100 OF
whom belong to their clergy. OF the
latter twelve are leaders residing in Utah,
but are working here as missionaries for
a short time. During the past four
months, thirtv-six were baptized, and
sixty.six. including children, ~emigrated to
Utah. Last year seventy emigrated, but
the number of Mormons emigrating this
year will become more numerous as larger
emigration takes place next month.
The passage money from the Norwe-
gians is already settled in Utah in most
cases in hopes of inducing their relatives
there to follow them to America. In this
country the mormons have nine stations.
In Christaina they count 1868 members,
Their first station at Brevik was estab-
lished in 1852, Since that time 5000
Norwegians have emigrated to Utah.
