Fleeced By a Sharper.

HARTFORD, June 19.-A strange young immigrant landed here from the New York boat this morning. He gave his name as Joseph Jagury. He was intel ligent looking but could speak no En. glish. Representatives of half a dozen nationalities could not understand the mans language but the police finally found a woman living in the lower end of the town who understood the Ian guage of the stranger and learned his story. He said that he arrived in New York yesterday without friends. Meet ing compatriot the young man said he wanted to reach Pittsburg. His new friend told him to give him all his money and he would go with him to his destination. The young man turned over $10O to the man, who placed him on the boat for Hartford and then disappeared. Jagury will be sent back to New York.

Merited Endorsement.

After exhausted experiments anII competitive tests the government at Washington have ordered for the Bos- ton postoffice and sub-treasury, large quantities of ozonos in both liquid and powder form to be used during the en- suing year. Hereafter no other disin- fectant will be accepted in these depart ments. The action of the government in specifying ozonos as the only disin- fectant to be used in future and the un- qualified adoption of this great deo- dorizer by the city of Boston for her fire, police and other departments, tho roughly establishes the superiority of the preparation and is a liberal and merited endorsement of the we'll grounded claims of the manufacturers that ozonos stands without a rival, and IS, without doubt, the most thorough, harmless and economical disinfectant ever introduced to the American people.

 At New Haven Tuesday, the auditing committee of the Knights of Columbus went through the books of General Sec retary Colwell, of New Haven, and General Treasurer Ryan, of Hartford. It was the annual visitation and every thing in connection with the finances of Of the order were pronounced correct to dot.

 At the meeting of the board of trade last night a resolution regulating the sale of goods by transient vendors was unanimously adopted. By the terms of the bill every person who desires to sell as an itinerant vender must deposit $500 with the state treasurer as bonds and pay $25 for a state license. When the travelling merchant desires to go out of business he notifies the state treasurer who holds the $500 bond money sixty aays; This is done so that person who mas been swindled by 8 misrepresenta- ton Of goods by the dealer can recover damages. If after sixty days no bills of complaint come in, the $500 is refunded to the dealer. The state board of trade will be requested to endorse the bill and secure its passage at the next term of the general assembly.

CENTILES CARRY THE DAY
Mormons Defeated in the Municipal
Election at Salt Lake.
The Victory Celebrated in Wild
Whirl of Enthusiasm.
Cannon Booming and BOnfrss Seen
in all Directions.

SALT LAKE CRY ,Feb.l0. The municipal
election of this city, the result of which
was awaited with such wide interest,
passed off quietly today, contrary to the
general expectations, The city has been
crowded for days with special police, de-
teetives and deputy United States marshals
for the purpose eft preventing illegal voting
which each party claimed the other would
resort to. Ii was anticipated that attempts
to challenge and arrest some voters would
result in riot and blood-shed This, how
ever, was not realized, although the ex-
element was intense. Half of the business
houses closed; bands paraded the streets,
which were damned with excited citizens.
Only six arrests were made for alleged lille
gal voting, and these without any demons
trations, Snow began falling early this
morning and continued until noon. when
the sun came out and soon transformed
the streets into rivers of slush. BY noon
5000 votes had been cast, which by the
poll books showed that about seyenty-fve
per cent of the peoples (Mormon) regis
tered vote had been cast and about
fifty per cent. of the liberals
At five o'clock it was estimated
returns from every ward in the city gave
total vote of 6 Dos, DIVIDED Gentiles,
3,443; Mormons. 1855. 1t six o'clock
Chairman Powers claimed the Gentle
majority would reach l,400. This, how
ever, is denied by Chairman Richards,
who says it is impossible to tell which side
is victorious until the complete returns are
in late tonight. The Mormons claim fraud
has been the order Of the day with the
Gentiles and if they are victorious it will
have been 10y those methods In this
event the Mormons will contest the cleo
ton in the United States supreme court.
LATER This evening every Gentle
building in the city was decorated with
flags and lanterns, hrework. are shooting
from hundreds of house tops, cannons are
booming and bonfires are seen in every di-
rection. Hundreds Of men paraded the
streets with drums and torches shouting
like wild Indians over the victory. No
such scene was ever before witnessed in
Utah. The Mormons remain indoors and
have nothing to say except that the cleo
ton was carried by fraud and that they
will surely contest it, They admit the de-
feat but claim that the majority will not
exceed 400.

NO CHANCE OF RELEASE.
The Chicago Anarchists Cling to Forlorn
Hone apinfon of IonceneCker

Hope Opinion ofLongenecker.
SPRINGFIELD, Ill.,, Feb. Chief JUS
tlce Shope has granted writ of error in
the case Of Fieden and Schwab, the inn
prlsoued anarchists, in order that the
question of the right of the condemned
men to be personally present in court
when the decision of the state supreme
court was rendeted may toe determined.
This viii serve to again rlyet the atten-
tion of the entire world on the pen tent
iary at Joliet, wherein are confined three
men applauded by their followers as
martyrs TO the cause of anarchy two of
them serving life sentences, und the other
n fifteen year term for participation in the
haymarket riot at Chicago ON the night of
Nav 4, 1856.
Briefly stated, the ground on which the
wit is granted is that the defendants
were not present when the supreme court
affirmed the rulings of the Chicago court
IN affirming the verdict in the cases of the
several anarchists and the sentences of
death or imprisonment The law requires
that they shall be present, and the records
say they were present
This question has never before been
raised in the annals of the country, and
hence the actlonof the United States SUI
preme court will be eagerly awsited.
Should 1t decide that the right exists to
prisoners TO be present in the state SUI
preme court when final Judgment is
passed, then not only Fielden, Schwab
and Neehe can get new trial hut Spies,
Parsons, Fisches and Engel illegally suf-
fered the death penalty, and every inmate
of the prisons of the state, whose case has
received an affirmative Judgment in the
state court without the prisoner being
present in person, has been Illegally I'M
prisoned
While lawyers conyersant with the case
in all It's details do not fear or anticipate
any such determination of the case as this,
yet the fact that there is a possibility of
just such a termination remains and must
not be lost sight of, and il may be said the
condemned anarchists at Joliet can still
entertain some hope of again breathing
the air of freedom. The ease will come up
for preliminary hearing 81 Washington at
the October term of the United States
supreme court
States Attorney Longenecker in talking
OF the case to-day, said Should the
United States supreme court find that the
state supreme court erred in not having
the prisoners present, 1t will simply re-
mand the case to the state supreme court
for re-heariug The state supreme court
will then have the prisoners brought be-
fore the bar while the case is reviewed
When the review is completed the court
viii confirm the sentence pronounced by
Judgc Gary Bnt there is not, in my
mind the slightest probability Of the Uni
ted States supreme court finding that the
state supreme court erred The whole
thing is the most ridiculous legal move
/ ever heard Of -
