The Case Of Thomas J. Sweeney I'm the
Police Court.

The case of Thomas ]. Sweeney. charged
with bigamy in marrying the widow Oliver
under the name of Annie E. Ferguson before
he was divorced from his first wife, was called
in the Police Court this afternoon. Col Car
rington represented the prisoner.
Mr.. Muliowney, for the prosecution, had the
witnesses called. Among them appeared the
name of Annie Ferguson She failed to ap-
pear and Mr.. Mullowney said he would like to
have an attachment for her.
Col Darlington said that there was not any
such person Annie Ferguson and he did moi
see how she could be brought in on an attach,
ment.
The court directed the attachment to issue
whereupon Col Darlington said that Annie was
in his Office and would come without an at
tachment
"Oh, then, you do know Annie Ferguson2"
THE FIRST MARRIAGE PROVED.

called aud be testified that in May, 1888. he
married the defendant to Miss Anderson
Witness was then stationed at the
Church OF the Immaculate Conception.

Jas. Anderson testified that he Was present
a; the marriage Of his daughter TO the defend
ant. Witness swore out the warrant on in-
formation received.
THE SECOND MARRIAGE.
Rev. S. r. White testified that on the 2Gth of
May last he married parties under the names
of Thomas Sweeney and Annie Ferguson, but.he
could not swear TO the identity of the persons.
Counsel asked witness if ne knew that tine

that would be cruel construction"
WIFE No. 2

dence because she was defendants wife, When

then she corrected her testimony by changing
it to Sweeney. She answered questions pro-
pounded by counsel, and after telling of the

THE SENATE PROGRAM.
The Caucus Committee In Session Again
Today.

The Senate republican caucus committee is
in session today trying to arrange the order OF
business in the Senate for the rest of the ses-
sion. There is general understanding that
the appropriations are to have the right of
way until disposed of, and that the tariff bull
will be next in order. II there is any inter-
vening time when the appropriations are not
ready Reconsideration, the tariff will be taken
up and will then give way 70 let the appropria-
tions come up when ready.
The sundry civil bill. which has been under
consideration tor q week. is expected to be
completed today. The river and harbor bill
will be next in order, with the possibility OF a
short tariff talk intervening. The sppropria-
tlon for additional force Of employees for the
Pension Office has yet TO be acted on and the
general deficiency bill, which the House COM
mittee has just reported, will come to the Sem
| ate committee in about week. There does
not seem to be any doubt that il the federa al
election bill taken up il will come
after, not before. the tariff
There is considerable doubt about the effect
OF Mr.. Blaine's utterapces with relation TO this
BILL and there is a wide difference OF opinion
as to the advisabiity Of adopting his reciprocity
suggestions at this time. Perhaps the most
common idea is that the senate will follow
the recommendations of the committee; but
there is a chance that a provision may be in
serted into the bill that tie repeal of the
| sugar duty shall not take effect at once. leav-
ing time for the State Department TO conduct
negotiations such az Mr.. Blaine desires.
One thing that places MIR. Blaine's PROPOSE
| ton at disadvantage before Congress at this
time is that the majority having adopted free
| sugar as q fitting gift for the great people.
ana having praised the gift that 1t may
not fail TO be properly appreciated, they
may hesitate about taking it away
again and letting il depend upon a
trade. On this point there will be contes,
between politics and statesmanship. IL any,
thing like proportionate time in comparison
with that consumed by the sundry
civil bill is taken for the discussion of
the tariff bill it will be very long time before
that measure gets into conference. And the
chances are that the democrats will not do all
the talking. In the discussion of the sundry
civil bill abont an equal amount of time was
taken up on the two sides of the chamber.
The tariff bill is a compromise measure,
the various interests being balanced and
braced against each other as best could be
done. Very few get all they want and many
nave to yield in the interest of harmony OF
party action. Consequently, republican SEN
ators as well as democrats will want consider
able time for discussion. that they may have
opportunity to explain some things which may
not be satisfactory TO their constituents.
All this makes it appear that the federal
election bill will be late at the banquet and il
will be q long time before adjournment

ably, without amendment, the bill introduced
by him July authorizing the Secretary OF
the Treasury to settle the Indebtedness of the

is authorized to negotiate with the
company and make the best settlement he can
for the government and execute the company

THE ELECTION BILL.
The republican members of the Senate COM
mittee on privileges and elections today re-
sumed consideration OF the federal election bill
They were also in session last night The reason
for this somewhat unusual devotion to business
is said to be due to q desire to complete the
preparation of q measure to be submitted to a
caucus early next week.
THE MORMON CHURCH FUNDS.
The House judiciary committee today lis
tened to an argument by Judge James o. Broad
head of st. Louis in opposition TO the Senate
bill providing for the application
Of the forfeited Mormon Church funds to the
support OF the common schools Of the territory
of Utah. Judge Broadheads contention was
that the bill was in violation of the
general law respecting charities, in
asmuch as IL proposed to diver. from its
legtim ate purposes MONEYS subscribed in aid
Of certain charities connected directly with a
specified denomination. He held that, al
though certain of these charities had been de-
clared to be Illegal. yet there were Others
among those specified, such as the support OF
Mormon schools, which could legally receive
the funds. As the property was now in the
hands of a receiver he held that the passage Of
the bill was unnecessary and would PREJUDICE
