MoRMONS' GROWING WORK.

The Cap-stone OF Their Temple, Which
Was SO Years Buildiny, Laid With
Simple, Impressive Ceremonies-Put in
Its Place by Electricity.
SALT LAKE, UTAH, April 6.-The cap
stone, or the last stone, on the Mormon
Temple was laid at noon to-day by Presi-
dent Woodruff, of the Mormon Church, in
the presence of an assemblage of people
estimated at from 40, 900 to $4,000. The
ceremonies were simple but of the most i'm
pressive character, and the stone was
placed in position by electricity from the
speakers stand. Nearly every leading
man of the Mormon Church was present,
and the occasion was viewed by the people
as one of the most important in their his
tory.
A resolution was adopted with cheers by
an immense assembly to complete the build
ing by April next. After laying the stone
a conference, which has been in session four
days, adjourned to next October. 1t is just
80 years since the laying of the corner stone
of the building. Beneath the cap-stone
there was laid copper plate, bearing an in

HURLBERT A FUGITIVE.
A Warrant Out for His Arrest for Perjury
in the Gladys Evelyn Suit.


LONDON, April GA report just made
by Sir Augustus Stephenson, Solicitor for
the Treasury and Public Prosecutor, ofici-
ally confirms the statements made some
time ago that warrant had been issued for
the arrest of William Henry Hurlbert, on
the charge of perjury in the suit for breach
of promise of marriage brought against him
bv Miss Gertrude Ellis, otherwise known as
Gladys Evelyn. On trial of the case the
jury returned a verdict for Hurlbert. which
was appealed from by the plaintiff. The
appeal was denied. In the meantime an in
quiry was started to learn the truth in the
matter.
Sir Augustus, in his report, explains that
finally enough evidence was obtained in
support of the evidence given by Miss
Evelyn in contradiction of Hurlbert's testi-
mony to enabled him to procure warrant
for the latter's arrest Every precaution
was taken to conceal the fact that inquiries
were being made, but it appears that it was
impossible to prevent Hurlbert from being
advised that he was likely to be arrested.
Hurlbert fled from England and went to
the United States. The warrant was cabled
there, but Hurlbert was again warned and
fled to Mexico, and thus escaped arrest.

RIVER STRIKE ENDED.

The Men Gained an Advance but Nom
Union Men Can p, Employed.
ST. LOUIS, April 6.-[ Especial. THE big
river strike terminated to-day and nearly
all the engineers, roustabouts and long
shoremen will be at work again by to-
morrow night The strikers demanded 25
cents an hour for longshoremen, S45 a
month for roustabouts, 500 to S125 month
for engineers, and an agreement not to en-
pioy any but union men. To all except the
last demand the Anchor Line Company
agreed to-day and the other companies fol-
lowed
The strikers finding they would lose bv
insisting on the employment of union men
only, decided to withdraw that claim and
the bone of contention being out OF the
way there was no trouble in reaching an
agreement Within an hour after the set
tlement the levee was full of workingmen
and several heavily laden boats went out to-
night.

note that the Blaine "fake" man is
again abroad, and that he again reiterates
that the Secretary is not sincerely out OF
the race for the Presidency No friend of

Vice President Morton a Candidate.
1t is somewhat remarkable that Vice
President Morton's name has been rarely
mentioned for the denomination. Mr., Nor

to hear the people cry for him, and, failing
to speak for himself That always present
"friend," to whom statesmen give secrets
confdentially for publication, has visited
Mr.. Morton within the last day. and has it
from that gentleman that he is a candi-
date.
Mr. Morton has made very Indifferent
presiding officer of the Senate, but he is a
good citizen and genial gentleman, and
will make an ideal candidate for the Vice
Presidency. The person chosen for this

The Probable French Minister.
1t is said that the President contemp]ates
the appointment of Hon. Robert Roberts
Hit as Minister to France to succeed Mr..
Reid. The President would honor himself
and the country by such an appointment.
Mr.. Hit is not distinguished man in per-
sonal appearance He has not the air of
the great man like Mr. Reid. But he is
fitted as few men in this country are for
high diplomatic position. He was First
Secretary of Legation and Charge d'Affaires
ad interim at Paris from 1874 to 1881, and in
the latter year was called home to take the
position of Assistant Secretary of State.
When speaking of foreign or international
affairs no other man in either House or
Senate is listened to with such close atten-
tion, because 1t is well known that no other
member of either branch of Congress has
made so close a study of diplomacy and of
international and foreign questions as he.
1t would be a deserved honor to give him
the French mission, and his appointment

melancholla and was killed She was 40
years old, and when not practicing her pro-
fession lived with her mother, brother and
sister in Roselle, n. j. Her speciality was
natural sciences, which she taught to private
pupils and also to classes. The mental dis
turbance which led to her suicide forced her
to give up teaching in February, and seek
rest at home.
Inactivity proved worse than work. and
she returned to this city for treatment about
a week ago She could not sleep last night,

NEW YORK, April 6.-rSpecial THAT
Colonel f. G.. Skinner, of Richmond, did
not spill the blood of Mr.. John S. Wise, of
this city, is not the fault of the Colonel,
who has had his duelirg clothes on for some
time. Miss Isabelle Greene was left out of
the Mendelssohn Assembly dances and the
cause thereof was Mrs. John Sergeant Wise.
When called to account, Mrs. Wise, very
unwsely, said something at which Miss
Greene took offense and sent for her grand
father the Colonel, to defend Fer honor.
Colonel Skinner was on his high horse at
once and demanded an apology. Mrs. Wise
wrote very pretty little note, but it was
not broad enough to suit Mr.. Skinner, who
still dreams of blood, but as Mr.. Wise says
he wouldn't fight under any circumstances,
there is little chance of New Workers hav-
ing any real Southern sport.

MARRIED HIM JUST FOR FUN,
And Her Advertised Bridegroom Flee
After Fleeing His Father-in-Law.

veloped this afternoon that Mrs Frederick
Winters, who has had such a disagreeable
marital experience in Denver, met her hus-
band through matrimonial agency in this
city. She was Miss Ida Witt, daughter of
a retired Chicago merchant. She answered
the agency's advertisement just for fun, her
brother believes, and soon was married be-
fore her friends knew of her intention or
could make any inquiry.
Winters, heavy-set man with light
mustache, was smooth talker and posed as
a Denver jewelry salesman. He, it ap-
pears, has borrowed $1,000 from his father
in-law and disappeared. The couple we're
married just month ago Mrs Winters is
said to be exceedingly pretty.
