WASHINOTOS , May 13--Congressional Del
egate John T. Caino , of Uuh ; John Vf.
Taylor , son of the president of the Mormon
church , and J lm Q. Cannon , son of the ex-
congressional delegate , who compose the dele-
gntion sent by the Mormon church to lay before -
fore the president a statement of the griev
ances ol the Mormona and pre
sent tbo address recently adopted by
the mo s meeting of Mormona
against the action of federal officials , called
by appointment at the executive mansion this
morning and word received by t ho president
In the library. As the delegation entered
the president was seated nt his deek , but im
mediately arose , shook hands with Caino ,
and was then introduced to Cannon and Tay
lor , Unino then road the address to the
president , who remained standing during the
interview. The president listened courteously
and attentively to the address , and , upon its
conclusion , said : "Well , gentlemen , BO far , of
course , as the Edmunds' law was concerned ,
I had nothing t < > do. It is my duty to BOO
that it Is enforced as well as nil other laws.
You are entitled to fair consideration and to
have the law fairly administered , as ynu ask ,
and so far ns any appointments I shall make
are concerned I will endeavor to give you the
character ol men who will ceo that the law is
fairly and Impartially administered. 1 hope
soon to goo at these thingt ) , but it will require
a little time. "
The president's facq broke Into n smile , as
he concluded : "I wish you out thoio could
bo as the rest of us "
"All wo ask , " rejoined Mr. Caino , "is that
the law shall bo Impartially ndminlstered. "
"You are entitled to that , " said the presi
dent , "and so far ns I nm concerned I shall
see that it Is done , I will give these matters
my attention as early as possible. " _
Another delegation entered at this moment
and the Mormons saluted the president and
withdrew.
The following is the address protented by
the mormons to the president :
" President A conference
"Mr. : general
ence at Logan , Utah , on the nth
day of April , 18SD , appointed a com
mittee to .draft a specific statement of
the wrongs they nave Bud ored and
are still suffering f rum the tvranical conduct
of federal ollicials. The committee
thus created submitted the re-
ault of its labors to the Mormon people of
"Utah gathered in moss meetings at the sever
al counties of that territory on May 2 , 1683.
The people of thuir own free will unanimously
and enthusiastically ratified this "declaration
of grievances and protest , " arid the undersigned -
signed were delegated to come here and for
mally deliver the same to you.
"In the performance of thU duty wo beg
leave to ussuro you that thin docu
ment voices the unified expres
sion of the whole mormon people.
It Is not the mere dictum of the church au
thorities. Thu presidency of the church had
nothing whatever to do with the preparation
or ratlhcatlon of this declaration of the peo-
nlo's grievances and their protobt atrainut the
wrongs inflicted upon them. The people
wanted to have formulated the facts of their
faith which are made the cause of complaint
against thorn and also a statement of the acts of
the men who have been sent by thu general
government to rule over them. Thin him boon
done , and the people have approved thereof
and made it their act and deed. In the or-
eiclio of a right guaranteed to them by the
constitution of the United Slates , nearly
200,000 cituans appeal to their fellow citUens
for a fair hearing and petition
you for a redress of their
grievances. The mormon people have been
patient , forbearing , and long-sutlering. They
have not been , they nro not , and they will not
ba disloyal or law.delying. They have within
the law fteadfastlyroeisted whatthov believed
to hour just enactment * , but they have not
resisted and will not resist the judgments of
the courts. Tluy maintain , however , that
they ought not to bo made thu victims of
special legislation enacted under the form
of general laws. Thu act of congress pun
ishing by fiuo and imprisonment unlawful
cohabitation is unquestionably a general law ,
supplying llko to nil th inhabitants of tlm
territory over which the United States claim
exclusive jurisdiction. It must have b'on
intended to suppress vica and Immorality , as
well as to punish mormons who maintii ed
martial relations with their plural wives. But
the prosecuting ollicers in Utah have declared
this law wai not made to be applied to non-
mormons , and the courts havu held this to
bo tha fair and rightful interpretation
of the unlawful cohabit tlon act. They Invo
moreover held that m < rtnons who have main
tained the otlapi ing of ttiuir plural marriages
and recognized as their wives the \vomnn
they cspomod before tbo passage of the
Edmund's law were guilty of UH violation ,
and upon this ruling men have been con
demned nod sentenced and are now under
going punishment although they were ready
and oifered to prove that they had not co
habited with moro than ono woman , "
"Very recently a man who confessed to hav
ing seduced his wifo'n sister was arrested upon
of "unlawful cohabitation " but
a charge , was ,
upon a haluss corpus p oceeding , released and
set free by the chief justice of tbo territory ,
who held that the Kdmuuds law wus not in
tended to and did not apply to such coses.
It ia probably needless to add that the accused
in this case was not a mormon. The
mormon people do not ask tbut
you shall oven "wrest once the
law to your authority in order to do a gicit '
right Eto them , " Th y will endure vastly
morethau than the public conscience would
expect of any people but they insist thai
they have tno und ubtod right to doininc
that the laws ehould ba impartially edminis-
toroJ ; that the men who administer their
should ba fair , upright , uublaiod and linpir
tial ; that the executive oud adinmUtiutivi
ctlicer sent theru by the fed
eral government should bo houo *
and confine themselves to tin
performance of their legal duties and jot
become the MllrH of cu uuecrupuloiu cotorii
whoso sole object Is to i hinder the mormons
their property and their liberty , Tbo rnor
mon people are charitable and are not promp
to speak evil , oven of tho.o who despiteful lly !
use and prosecute them. Tbo mercilosi
crutade which huberuuagod against then
formany years they boliovn to bo directed at
their religion. They know that tha faith whicl
they profess and prtctlce is unpopular , but
they know also that in this respect they an

those of whom the son of inrn sp > ko ore

of all my men for my name's skkr , but
he that ondureth to the end

overruling providence makes them conBdeu
of the ultimate triumph of their coune. Tim

"This Is their protest : 'Wo protest against
unfair treatment on the part of thoteneral
government. We protest against the con
tinuance of memorial bondage as subversive
of the rights of freeman and contrary to the
spiiit of American Institutions. Wo protest
against special legislation , the result of popu
lar prejudice and religious interferenco. Wo
protest against the conscience of one clnss of
citizens being made the criterion by which
to judge another. Wo protest against
the tyranny of federal officers and the coo-
tinuanco In oflica of men who dltgrace their
positions and use them as a means of oppres
sion. Wo protest against the Administration
of the Kdmunds law the punishing of one
class for practicing their religion and exempt
ing fr m prosecution votaries of lust and
crime. Wu protest against the breaking up
of family relations formed previous to the
passage of the Kdmunds law , and depriving
women and children of the support and
protection of their husbands and fathers.
Wo protest against the proaec'illon of persons ,
many of whom are aged and infirm , who en
tered Into plural marriage before It was de
clared a crime , and who have never violated
any law.
"Worospcctfully'askforthonppolntmentby
the president of a commission , to fairly nnd
thoroughly investigate the Utah eituation ,
and pending Its report , we solemnly protest
against the continuance of this merciless
csusado.
"In conclusion , Mr. President , permit ua to
express the belief that n fair and candid in
vestigation of the mormon problem would
disabuse the public mind and remove much of
the prejudice existing against us. May wo
not , thcrcforo , entertain the hope tint you
will institute such an investigation , and thus
open the door tor the Battlement of this vexed
question. "

RICHMOND , Va. , May 13. Tbo taking of
testimony in the Chuverms murder trial com
menced to-day. L. W. R-oso , keeper of the
reservoir where Lillian Madison's body waa

duties. It was his custom to make a circuit

top of the bank of the reservoir. Thus en
gaged , on the morning of March II , i10
found a woman's glovn and broken
shoo strUg , and looking into the water
saw a portion of the dress and
partially exposed body of n woman. Contin
uing tbo examination of the premises after
taking the b xjy from the water he noticed ;
evidences of a struggle on the bank and the
footsteps of a woman followed by those of 10a
: : man. The witness noticed a severe contusion
over the right eye of the dead woman and
said bo thought a person falling might receive
such a wound from the bricks which lined the
is reservoir. In answer to a question by the
attorney for the prosecution tne witness said
the surroundings outside the reservoir were
dismal and gloomy , especially at night
on the east side there being a smallpox hos
pital nnd on the south a place where small-
l > or patients are customarily burled , Around
the reservoir was a picket fence three feet and
: four inches high , The defense objected to i c
question as to whether a woman ia a delicatt
condition could easily get over this fence , mi
if 11 was likely1 a lady without an escort woulc
, approach such a dismal place at night , nd
the court tukd them out as improper ones.

TIIK CENTRAL TRAFFIC ASSOCIATION ALL
TORN or.
CuiflAQO , III. , May 13. Tha general man
agers of the western connection ! of the east
ern trunk lines , constituting the Central
Traffic association , began a session hero this
forenoon. The attendance is not as largo as
at the first setslon when the agreement was
aln
made to maintain freight rates on the basis
of 20 cents on grain frun Chicago to Now
York. Since than there has been open cut
ting of ratoa , it having boon charged that a
rate : of 13 cents was made for a largo assign
ment of grain hero yesterday. The meeting
hero ' to-day resulted in an exchange of re
criminations , and it is hardly thought that a
restoration , of rates can result from the
present j , meeting , as a numbar of roads are
not represented. A proposition was made to
refer tha question of rates to n committee of
eighteen , and the proposition had boon dis
cussed at some length without any result up
to noon.
( In the afternoon the committee of eighteen
mot but found there wore disagreements among
the liius represented in the Chicago local
committee , and that any gimeral maintenance
of rates waa impossible until those differences
could bo harmonized. It was recommended
tint tbo Chicago committee make an effort in
the direction of harmony , and the committee
of eighteen adjourned subject to the cill of
the chairman at Chicago , The committee
will probably meet to-morrow.
The managers rf roads between Chicago
and the Missouri River met here to-day to
ratify the agroemant made a few days ago
for the formation of a number of pools on
business bstween the points named. The
agreement waa read section by section. The
Missouri Pacific put in a claim for an in
creased allowanceCmJtha traffic in which It is
concerned , While no definite action was
taken it is believed the claim will ba allowed.
The nttornoon session was devoted to the
discussion of the percentages of the pool on
range cattle. The mooting will ba continued
to-morrow.

SmiNOKiiLD , 111. , May 13. Both branches
of the legislature met at noon to-day in joint
session , One hundred and ninety-eight mem
bers wore present , but no vote WAS cast. The
democrats Intended holding a protracted scs-
sionnnd knocking Morrison out , but he seems to
have been too eharp for them , Ropresontn-
tivo Tyler of Adams , n Mornson man , waa
conveniently absent , and , of course , there
could bo no vote , which civea Morrison an
other day of grace.
A crisis in the senatorial contest seems im-
rrineut. Morrison , rightfully or wrongfully ,
Is blamed for the lets of a member in
the thirty-fourth district. His enemies
ore using against him the argument
that a man who would allow the wool t > bo
pulled over his eyes , as was done in that case ,
is not fho kind ot a leader who should be sent
to the senate. His friends are beginning to
admit that ho cannot possibly bo elected , and
there Is a perceptible pressure _ from Wash
ington , not perhaps directly ngaitut him as an
individual but against him ns an obstruction
to the success of the party. The national ad
ministration would rather ceo any ono elected
than Logan , and the democratic managers ,
outside of Morrison and a few of his personal
adherents , fmr that if something is not done
and donntniickly , that Logan will circumvent
them again and secure his own election.
There are Indications that Morrison himself
begins to realize the inevitable , and that ho
will submit to It , not voluntarily or will-
irgly , but because he fears the consequences
to himself should Logan bo elected while ho ,
( Morrison , ) continues to hang on , There
seems to bo a general democratic demand
that Morrison shall get out of the way and bo
pretty quick about it. Democrats don't
seem to care very much who iselectod if they
can only elect any one. Success is what they
are ' after , and strange to tay the drift of
opinion is unmiatakeably , though somewhat
unaccountably , in the direction of Carter
Harrison. It is not probable that there
ever will be a full democratic caucas , but
when Morrison is no moro a candidate , the
democrats . will vote all around the clrc'o and
in the course of time , finding that they can
not elect a straight democrat , they will begin
dropping votes hero and there for Ex-Con
gressman Farwell.
The election of a republican in that Democratic -
cratic stronghold the Thirty-fourth district ,
is n bitter pill for the democrats , aud they
exhibit a venomous spirit against Logan bet
cause he outwitted them. If the republicans
fully appreciated Lagan's genera'ship ' in
fin itching victory from defeat , in that case
they would stand by him to a man and reward -
ward him by electing him , as they can do.
If he over had a prospect of getting a demo
cratic vote , ha has none now. The democrats
are Bore and sour , and will go almost any
length , oven to tbo length of electing another
republican , to revenge themselves on Logan.
The public need not bo surprised to find them
voting for Charley Farewell , not that
they Jove Farwell , but that they hate Logan ,
Already negotiations have been opened between -
tween eomo of the republicans and some dem
ocrats looking to Farwell'a election. About
eighteen republicans nro ready to bolt Lcftau
for Farwell OB soon ai the democrats give
them sufficient encouragement , which they
may do before Weaver can take his seat. In
case the democrats take up Farwell there is
no telling what the Logan men will do. Some
of them stick to him to the end , but others
may make a diversion to offset and if posblble
kill the Farwell boom.

SpniNapiELD , 111 , , May 13. In the senate
a resolution providing for an afternoon session
on Tuesdays , Wednesdays and Thursdays
was adopted. A communication from the
governor nominating seventy-five notanoa
public received consideration. The general
appropriation bill was temporarily post
poned on motion of Merritt to allow time
for the house to got through with its delib-
eratioEB ,
In the. house this morning the speaker an
nounced a committee to investigate the work
ing of the southern grand division of the su
preme court. The committee Is Fuller , Lino-
gar and Baker.
The motion to reprint of the adjutant gon-
oral's reports 0 , ( CO copioi , not to exceed incest
cost § 10,000 , was adopted. The vote was 113
to 3 , Linegar gava notipe of recon
sideration. Mahoney's resolution oak-
ing for investigation of the park boards
of Chicago were taken up. Taylor ol Cook
moved to lay It on the table , a vote taken re
sulting G2 ajes , cays 7- , the republicans voting
ing aye. Crafts moved the previous question
and the rppublieins broke the quorum.
In the joint convention 108 members were
present. Neither party voted. Adjourned.
It Is unsafe any longtr to predict what the
Illinois legislature Is g < .lng to do Last night
every person expected a vote , but that was
thwarted by the fact that Taylor of Adams ,
was at homo sick. When this fact wa > learned
this morning the democrats were very much
disappointed , because they really intended to
do something , It la not known when T ylor
will be horn , and of course nothing can bo
dona until ho does return.
It is understood hero to-night that the re.
tarns from the Thirty-fourth district will bo
hero either to night or early enough in the
morning to allow a canvass and the governor
to issue a certificate of election to Weaver be
fore the joint session. Should this bo the case
something may bo looked for.
A special train carrying a number of legis
lators Jeft here to-night for Quincy , for the
purpose of bringing KnpresenUtlve Taylor , of
Adams , here to-morrow. The object appir
ently ia not so much to secure a vote for sen
ator as to try and keep Weaver out.

AN ITALIAN CONTOH3IONIST HEATS HIS L1TTLK
DACalirtll TO DEATH.
I'mi-ADSLl'lllA , Pa , May 13.At the In
quest on the body of Lottio Cook Onofri
to-day , n revolting story of her cruel death
was told under oath. Her stop father , the
Italian contortionist , C. Achilo Onofri , who
is accused of killing her , waa present ns a
prisoner 1 > nnd seemed overwhelmed by the
predicament into which his brutal nature has
brought him. The child WAS only niun
years old. Her botly was covered
with cuts and bruises. The coroner's phy
sician testified that her veins were almost emp
ty ; nnd that the child had literally been
starved and beaten to doath. On Monday , It
was shown , Onofri flogged little Lottie nearly
all day , using a thick rope , n heavy ( trap , atd _
a shovel , the handle of the latter being
broken on her head or her body.
Her stop-father tied her hand and foot and
compelled < her to kneel down for hours. At
night she crawled upstairs tubed and moaned
and complained of her back. Onofri beat
her ' ngalu with a shovel , After lying
quiet a while the dying child began to
moan , when the step-father in
( treat rno fell upon her , sm 'thored '
her head under a pillow nnd eat upon it ,
When released the young victim , M her little
flster Mnbsl said , lay very quiet , Onofri
then struck her in thn face with his fint and
although she did not stir ho struck her
again with n shovel. Then bocoiniug
alarmed at tbo Increasing pallor on her little
face the stepfather sent for n doctor. When
the physician arrived the child was In Onofri'fl
arms doad.
The case was continued In order that the
testimony of other children may bo taken.

CuiCAao , 111. , May 13. The wheat market
was very lint in early trading , prices dropping
oil i@Ro from the closing figures of last night.
There had been A heavy short tolling during
the two preceding days , and the bears were
allowed to bo in complete possession of the
field , duo in the main to the advent of warmer
weather. Then there came in some gloomy
crop forecast" , the reported presence of grass
hoppers In Texas , and a good homo and ex
port Inquiry for epring wheat , all of which
occasioned on instant revulsion in the temper
of the market , prices advancing sharply Igo
from the bottom , with the bears showing n
frantic desire to cover their short sales , Trad
ing to the close in the afternoon was active ,
and the feeling wns quite firm at the finish at
early the best prices of to-day. The receipts
and shipments were free ,

There waa only a moderate speculative
business in corn , but the market ruled steady ,
responding to the advance In wheat , and
closed Jo higher than yesterday. The re
ceipts are only moderate.

turn of 10ir > o on big heavy steers and the
ordinary run of ship ) lug steers. In n general
way the market is only about G@10c lower
than the highest for the last week. Hardy
little cattle are making extremely high
prices. Steers under 1,000 pound averages
