en- up. Mr. Rawllns (UtahJ read
newspaper article saying there was a
combination formed In the Utah Legis-
lature to elect a MIR. Kearns senator,
and that 1t was being forwarded by the
Mormon" Church. which was now
working with the Republican party. He
intlmated that the Church had received
certain promises from the Republicans
relative TO the practice Of polygamy
and he said he thought a voice should
80 out from Washington In condemna-
ton Of the proceeding.
Mr.. Hale (MaineJ replied to Mr. Raw
Inns vigorously. He said there ought
not to be any expression OF the United
States Senate upon a matter Ike a
senatorial election. IL was highly i'm
proper to send voice from Washing
ton while legislature was performing
its constitutional duty. II was pater-
nalism Of the worst sort.
Mr.. Chandler IN. H. also took occa-
sion 10 say that he thought the action
Of Mr.. Rawlips was not In good taste,
and that the Senate should not attempt
to influence a State legislature
In reply Mr. Rawins criticised the
action OF the legislature OF New
Hampshire. where Mr. Chandler was
defeated, and said the result was, ac-
cordlng to Mr. ChandleSs statement,
brought about by combinations similar
to those proposed In Utah.
Mr.. Chandler smiIingly retorted that
while the result in New Hampshire was
greatly TO be deplored and the methods
OF the late senatorial election In that
State 10 be condemned. yet II would
have been very bad taste II his COL

SAFE IN JAIL.
ESPECIAL TO THE NEWS. y

ESPECIAL TO THE NEWS. -
Provo. Jan. 2S.-Once more 1t is said
that the triple murderer who several
years ago was the principal in the ter
rible tragedy at Pelican Point. has been
located. This time he is said TO be in
Jail at Butte Mont, where he is await
ing trial for the crime OF grand larce-
ny.
While Sheriff Storrs docs not place
a great deal Of confidence In the pur-
ported capture Of the alleged murderer,
at the same time he does not propose
20 let any chance Of that nature slip:
accordingly he has forwarded a letter
10 the Montana authorities. asking for
a photograph Of the man. AS soon as
he receives this picture and concludes
that there Is something In the story. he
viii lose no time in boarding the train
for the north.
There is one weak link In the chain
Of evidence, as set forth in q letter
received from w. +. Whitley, under
sheriff Of silver Bow county. this morn
ing. By Sheriff storrs, and that Is that
while the man Is said 10 resemble the
much-wanted Wright In every particu-
lar. that he has given the name, when
arrested, OF George II. Wright. which
Is essentially the same as the name OF
the man on whse trail the sheriff OF
Utah county has been for some years
past.
Sheriff Storrs argues. with some rea-
son, that If the man now In Jail at
Butte were the alleged Pelican Point
murderer, that he would not be so in
Judicious as to give TIE name under
which he was known whlleIesiding In
Utah at the time OF the terrible TRACE
dy.
However the Utah county official is
not going 10 let such a thing as that
deter him from investigating the mat
ter 10 It's full limit From the letter
received from Under-Sherih Whitley.
that officer seems 70 be positive that he
has the nan who Is wanted FOR the
murders. He states that In comparing
his prisoner with the published descrip-
tion OF the man Wright that he an
swers In every detail and that he bears
a striking resemblance 20 the pictures
Of him that were circulated throughout
the United States at the time that a
reward for his apprehension was Of
