The CLAYTON Murlerer

Little Rock, Ark, March 2O.-The police
here are beginning to give credence to the
theory that the murderer of John NJ. Clay
ton is under arrest at Butte, Mont, The
congressional investigation showed that the
weapon with which Clayton was killed
was sold by a st. Louis house to Butte
(Mont.) firm and by them again sold. This
train Of evidence leads to the conclusion
that the murderer may have returned to
Butte and there 'given himself away in
some manner and so been arrested. SIS

RI Washington, March 21-The litigation

corporation of the Church Of Jesus Christ
Of Latter Day Saints, commonly known.
as the Mormon church, has not yet end
ed, and the supreme court now has before
it an appeal respecting the use to which
shall be put the church property Nescheat-
ed by the courts decision at q previous
term as held contrary to public policy.
When the property was declared for.
feited the court directed the Utah SUI
preme court to fix the charitable uses
to which it should be put That court
rejected the proposition Of the govern
lnent as to the use which should be made
of the fund from the property, amount
ing to about 100000, and directed that
it should be applied to the support and
aid Of the poor members of the Mormon
church and to the building and repair
ing of houses of worship for the mem
bers of the church. The United States
has appealed from this decree. asserting
s that it would practically permit the prop
erty to be devoted to the same purposes
for which it was formerly held. To-day
the United States supreme court, with
the concurrence of both parties to the
suit. advanced the case and assigned it
