OUR SALT LAKE LETTER.
The Conflict of authority between
the IT. 8. Troop and the
Kermon Officials.
Details of the release from Jail of
that arrested Soldier.
SAirliAKE, June 11, 1874.
ErftTOR Bee.
I wrote you some time ago of a
case brought by Col. Morrow before
the United States District Court of
this District to determine the extent
of the jurisdiction of civil authorities
in arresting and punishing soldiers
fjr violation of city ordinances. The
District Court did not give a deci
sion but the case was reported to the
War Department, at Washington,
and instructions wefe issued to Gen.
Morrow, Commander of the U. S.
forces in this Territory, to the fol
lowing eflect:
"Hereafter no arrest or taking bj'
the civil authorities of the person of
any officer or soldier under your
(CoL Morrow's) command will be
considered as legal, unless such offi
cer or soldier be voluntarily surren
dered by you (or the proper com
manding officer in your absence)
upon an application, of the sufficien
cy of which you (Col. Morrow) alone
must be the judge, duly made, in
good faith, under the .3d article of
war; and that in the event of an ar
rest cr seizure made, it will bo your
duty to liberate and return to the
command, by force if necessary, the
person so arrested or seized. In do
ing so you will lx sustained by such
military support as may be found
requisite."
This order was received and pro
mulgated only a day or two ago.
Yesterday a soldier named Hack
ett, from Camp Douglas, three miles
from this city, having taken in moro
benzine than discretion, kicked up
several small rows in town. He
was first put out of the ItevereHouse
for acting in a disorderly manner,
and he afterwards insulted several
persons on the street, amongst
yhom was x-U. S. Judge McCur
dy, whom he twice knocked into
the gutter. This was too much and
ho was set upon by several citizens,
-who marched him to the city jail
and delivered him to the police.
His trial was fixed for this morning.
About 10 o'clock Col. Mon ow de
tached Lieut Dinwoody, with two
men, to demand from the authori
ties the release of IJaclfett, with a
view of punishing him for the ofr
fence. The Lieutenant was an
swered: "Ho could not have the
proper ; if Col. Morrow wanted
him, h i-'oujd come and take him."
Uioii being infqrmed of this, CoL
Morrow ordered Capt, Gordon to pro
ceed with 25 men to again" 'de
mand the prisoner, and to release
him at all hazards.
The gallant captain was not long
in obeying iho order. His troops
came into town on tile dead run,
and brought up with a lively iurn
jlj front of the city hall and jail. Hy
thfs tjmp Information of what was
up had sprc&4 life Wildfire, and an
immense crowd had giituprpd about
the jail, and as the doors or" this
building and the city hall had been
locked and bolted, all sortsof specu
lation was indulged in as to what
would be do??. Many thought a
larged-slzed row was ij immediate
prospect Whatever 'iw'aa to be"
was soon determined by tho rapid
movements of the cavalry. They
werp rjjsmounted and ordered to
load thejr carbjnps, Captain Gor
don, in company 'yth' pfyprnor
Woods, proceeded to' tho police
court room and demanded or Jus
tice Clinton that the prisoner be
given into Ids puafody. Clinton re
plied he did not propose Jo do any
thing of the sort' The captain
asked: "You will not release the
man?" Clinton again replied, "I
will not," when Captain Gordon in
formed ldni he would "batter down
the wholfl damned edifice, but that
ho would find and rejeasp him."
Instantly detailing a squad of about
a dozen men he marched to the jail,
procured a log of wood and ordered
his men to go for the door. After
one or two bouts, tho door not yield
ing, the prisoner presented himself
behind a grated window, when the
troops turned tbeirattenUon to that
The grating was soon torn from
its sockets, and, like Lazarus from
the tomb, the man ordered to step
forth.
His appearance was the signal for
the breaking forth of the hitherto
restrained feelings of the crowd, and
a tremendous j-pll greeted him.
Troops and citizens wpro wild with
joy. Cheer alter cheer was given',
and the men, quickly mounting,
galloped back to capip.
And now what of this? The
Mormon officials have pjaced thenir
selves in direct opposition to tie au
thority of the United States Gov?
eminent. Is it the beginning of the
end, or Is it the beginning and the
end? 'Tis scarcely problc that it is
the latter, though many are of the
opinion that Justice Clinton was
hadly advised, and that the Gov.
eminent having demonstrated its
will by forco he nor his bookers will
care to bring it into requisition very
often, if at all, hereafter..
Bad feeling has been existing be
tween the soldiers and civil author
ities tor some time, which this will
only serve to intensify. The police
havp seemot to (plight In jnflluUng
unmerited punishment' in several
instances qi arrests pr soiuiers.
They liaye been beaten over the
head, put in "the chain' gang and
worked on the streets, and' other
sentences inflicted, both degrading
and disgraceful, until the chapter of
to-day Is the result
The situation at present is not a
pleasant onp 'to contemplate. "You
will notice the language of the
order issued by the Secretarj' of the
War, '-'No arrest of a sojdier by
the civil authorities will he con
sidered as legal." ' Qbvjously, if not
legal it Is unlawful, and if u'nlaio
fill may he resisted, by the party
upon whom the attempt to arrest is
made. Suppose two, three or half
a dozen soldiers from the camp pror
poso to have a "lark," get dropjr,
break into houses, stores, rot, steal
r ehoot, who is to stop them ? The
citizen cannot call upon the police.
He must defend himself. It is to be
hoped this is not the intent or mean
ing of the order, but at present It is
the order, and at present we must
look at things as they are. Thp
police shb6hf be" aJbVed tor arrest

ties refused to give- up the prisoner
when demanded..
The Mormons say the thing
means "blood." They seem sullen,
and gather in little groups to discuss
the matter. One whom I passed
this morning said : "We must take
care.of ourselves then." The Gen
tiles are jubilant They too congre
"gate at street corners, in doorways
and halls. "Good!" "Served
them right," is Jieard on all sides.
With a glorified countenance they
ask : "Did you see the fight ?" and
tlie neighbor. is considered unfortu
nate, -who did not witness the affair.
The prisoner in no way looked
like a man worth fighting for. A
bloated countenance, with several
blotches on it, was an ugly witness
of the debauch he had been indulg
ing in. Still he is said to be an
excellent soldier and a steady man.
The cell in which he was confined
was in a low damp room, under a
building adjoining the city hall,
strongly built of rock, and with
stood Captain Gordon's battering
ram for several minutes.
-. While the soldiers werapounding
below," tho Captain in attempting to
ehter.through a door above, found it
bolted. Raising a musket, he gave
it two or three furious blows, which
most effectually squelched it The
jailer, a burly fellow standing in
the way, was told in no uncertain
tones, to make room. One look at
the Captain convinced him it would
be wise to travel, and he traveled.
The Salt Lake Tribune will sing
Hail Columbia, the Jictvs will prate
about the "rights of citizens and
communists to govern themselves"
and about the ''unconstitutionality"
of Captain Gordon's proceedings,
while the Herald will draw its dole
ful face down till the 'corners of its
mouth touch its shirt collar, and in
sepulchral tones call upon brother
Brigham to "pray for us." Orson
Pratt's thunder will roll through
the vaulted arches of tho huge
tabernacle, overwhelming Jew and
Gentile in on abyss of Mormon
wrath. Elder Snows piping voice
will rend the air with screeches,
calling upon the Great American
Eagle,- at last hovering over this de
lightful valley, "Don't take me: oh
Lord, -don't take me" while Bill
Hickman and Porter Rockwell will
uncurl the twist worn upon their
heads these many years and join the
fight. Reno.

Qn motion of order raised by Mr.
Hale (Me) the section providing for
the payment of the Chickasaw In
dian for arrears of interest a"ccnie4
f H4 ue44on ago, giyi aar-w
on over a quarter of million of dol
lars of Tennessee and Arkansas
State bonds, was stricken out
Mr. Hale (Me.) moved. to strike
out the third section of the bill
which provides for paying some two
million to the Choctaw and Chicka
saw Indians ia. conformity with the
awara made by the .Senate in
March, 1859, as "the price, of some
ten millions of acres of land in Mis
sissippi ceded by these Indians to
the United States.
Mr. Garfield Jaypred the motion
as the claim was a private one and
had no placein..thebill. Jn notone
of twelve general appropriation b"ls
reported was there a private claim,
and he appealed to the House not to
make this an exception.
Mr. Parker (Mo.) opposed the mo
tion and favored tho. payment of
the claim.
Mr. Hale (Me.) in support of his
motion, said this item was simply a
proposition to pay over $2,250,000 to
two men, Peter P. Pitcblynn and
Peter Folsora, living In the city of
Washington, neither of whom, he
presumed, had seen either of their
tribe for tho last two j-ears, and It
was safe to say that the Choctaw
and Chickasaw nations would not
get the one hundredth thousandth
of it; besides, it was not certain the
sum fixed was a proper one.
Mr. Speer favored the motion to
strike out, and declared that the
claim was pushed and had been
pushed by one of the largest and
most shameless lobbies ever seen In
Washington.
Mr: Kasson moved to strike out
tho names of Petchlynn and Fol
som, and Insert in their place the
Secretary of the Interior, for the
benefit of the Choctaw nation.
Messrs. Comings and Shanks op
posed Mr. Hale's motion, and
Messrs. Kasson and Coburh favored
the motion to striko out, and re
ferred to tho report of tho Solicitor
of the Treasury, two years ago, that
the claim was fraudulent.
Mr. Kasson's amendment was
finally agreed to by 99 to 70.
Mr. Wheeler offered a substitute
for the whole section; it directs the
Secretary of the Treasury to Inquire
into the amount of liabilities' of the
Choctaw Indians due individuals,
and which should be deducted from
the sum due the Choctaws from the
United States, and report the same
to the next Congress; adopted.
Without making any further
amendment, the committee arose
and reported the bill to the House.
Mr. Garfield said the bill appro
priated little over 2,300,000 against
3,200,000 last year, but this did not
contain any appropriation for thp
board of public works of the Dis
trict of polumbia, as" the bill last;
year did.
AU the amendments made in
committee of the whole, including
the one to repeal the law for the
civil service commission, etc., and
the one striking out the third sepj
tion for tjjp paympnf'bf the 'Choc
taw claim, and Inserting Mr. Wheel
er's substitue, were agreed to, and
the bill passed.
The House took a reces3 till eve

consideration of business from the
