Show Arres'ed for forgery. On Monday evening detective Rose ' of this city arrested at Evanston, Wy-1 oming, Mr. John J. Mahon, late pro- piietoroftho Ogden House, Ogden; j the ehsrgo against Mr. M. being forgery, It is alleged that Mahon forged the name of Mr. Hugh White to a promissory note for ?100, aud then disposed of the paper to a creditor cred-itor in payment of a debt. After he was arrested Mahon objected to retnrning into Utah with the officer, except on the proper extradition papers; hence a requisition .op .the Governor ot Wyoming was issued by Governor Woods, and last evening the fugitive was brought to this city i for examination and trial. It is rather risky business to attach the name of a gentleman so well known here as Mr. Hugh White to a 1 promissory note, and then start the latter in circulation. |
