Tamagno, the famous tenor, goes back to Europe on the "La Norniandi" tomorrow. lie came near leaving some costumes be-hind for a debt of $7 which he vowed he would not pay. A settlement was effected only after Tamagno made and caused himself to be made the laughing stock of the other guests. The reckon-ing came yesterday and Tamagno rosti early to save delay and rent of his apartments. Befor 7 o'clock he went to his office and called for his bill. There was a stormy time and landlord Martin, after telling Tamagno what he thought of him, gave him the option of paying $7 or bemg proceeded against under the net. After the money was paid, although the steanior did not sail until tomorrow, Tamagno had his luggage taken to the dock and put on board and staid there himself. ONE M1I.UOX 1IDI.UKS, The Amount the Government Has Lost, Through Custom House Vraml,. New York, April 3. Tho startling information that the government lias been robbed of 1 ,000.000 through im-portation of goods upon which uo dutv was paid has caused vast excitement among the custom house officials today. The details are unknown. The informa-tion came in by cablegram from the United States consul at Deverick Leipsic. The frauuds are said to le an enormous importation of gloves from Germany, which the merchants of New York and other cities managed to smug-gle through without the payment of du-ties. The cablegram was sent dirucl to Washington. The custom house offi-cials in New York only got wind of it through a 'report which is well authenticated. It is well known that the cablegram is now in the possession of the treasury offic-ials, who await more definite informa-tion with the greatest interest. They are inclined tothink that the most enor-mous scheme to defraud the govern-ment that has ever been known will be disclosed in the near future. 'ELEGRAFHIC .

Already there is an occasional discus-sion in the committee rooms, the hotels aud tho lobbies as the city in which the national conventions of both parties should be hold iu 18112. Of course Chi-cago will bo in tho field for the prize, and it is thought thero will really be but little opposition to her claims, if she can convince the national committees that she is capable of accommodating the people. This will, it is thought, be rather a difficult task, as about that time the world's exposition will bo al-most ready for the opening, which oc-curs in October of 1802, audit is pre-sumed that tho city will on this account be crowded with visitors. Tho old fight between Chicago and St. Louis is sure to bo fought over, and tho citi-zens of both towns will make an earnest struggle.

Tea, Coffee, Tobacco, Whisky, Beef, Pork, and Lamb Chops Must be Let Alone. At Hie afternoon session yesterday John W. Young spoke on the duties of the saints, and why a local lalair organ-ization was needed. ApoMlo Merril re-lated some Indian anecdotes, while Abram II. Cannon remarked that npos-tacie- s like Sam Weller's, "w idderV' were to bevared of. When these three had linished, the conference adjourned until this morning. THIS MOUNlNU's SKsMON. Tho number of people in attendance at tho conference this morning was greatly in excess of those present yes-terday, and all the seats ou the main floor of the large auditorium w ere oc-cupied. At 10 o'clock (Jeo. Q. Cannon opened the conference by announcing the hymn, "Softly Beams the Sacred Paw ning of the Great Millcnial Morn," after which prayer w as offered, w hich was followed by the hvmn, "llow Are Thy Servants Blest, Oh" Lord." JOHN W. TAVI.OK was then called upon by President Woodruff. Said he; I trust that 1 shall be able, to make you all hear; that the Lord will inspire me and that you may have the proper understanding of w hat I have said. 1 have been thinking this morning of the operation of the holy spirit as a means of revelation to individuals w lio are possessed of it. I think that that spirit leveals to tho individual what Is neces-sary for his good, much the same the Holy Spirit reveals to the president what is good for the church. Isituol possible that the servants of God who stand in authority or occupy humble positious cannot learn a few lessons? I)o revelations come when w e aro busy and have no time? Does not the spirit of God get disgusted and leave! I know that for a year I have beeu so ab-sorbed lu temporal things that 1 have not hearkeued to I lie voire of the spirit as I should, he speaker then related an anecdote of his mother's spirit appearing to a young mail in Nephi and saying she could not get communication with her own family for they were too busy. Ho then branched off on the subject of ac-quiring property, anil said that the saints should not seek after gold and lauds, but seek lirst the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and not follow tho vain glory of the Gentiles. He ex-pected to see a great deal of opposition to the church but expected to live to seo tho thing through and the church of God established in tho last days. He advised all saints not to sell their homes for money, but keep llm titles in their own names. In regard to the boom in Salt Lake ho was glad, it had mado poor men wealthy. Don't be frightened about tuxes. When you want to sell you'll make the price $10,000, When I ho assessor comes you will say its worth $1000. Stay in Salt Luke, it's a good place and you w ill travel many miles before you llnd a better. APOSTLK GltANT was the next to address the conference. He said he was much pleased with the remarks already made and hoped the same spirit would remain until the end-ing of the conference. We, as Latter-Da- Kainls, have cause to bo thankful for the goodness mid mercy of our Heanenly Father. Wo were forcibly reminded yesterday of tho groat bless- - i .:.... i... !.'....!.... ..i aw ay, .Moriuouism w ould be at an end. They of whom he had spoken had passed away, new men had licon chosen for standard Warer. and the work of the Lord iucicuws and never crow s less. The church does not depend upon the power of man, nor upon political power. For if every ves-tige of swer should be taken away it would not affect the church iu the least. You will Had that eeu now, while we have been shorn of much po-litical power in Idaho, Salt Lako, Og-de-and other places, this is the largest conference and the most important in the history of the church. The priest-hoo- d is IsMttcr established today than it was years ago. There Is not a saint but what would sacrifice everything for the good of the church if it came to a pinch. The speaker then said that the doctrine of the Latter-Pa- Saints was was that they should not tipple; that they should uot indulge lu tobacco; that they should not Use so much meat. That a lesser number of bullocks should be slain, less muttons eaten, aud fewer pieces of side meat digested, lie also said that the saints should not Use tea or coffee, but drink plain water. The saints should be a peculiar nud remark-able people us the Lord had intended in the latter days. The original idea was to make a Latter-da- Saint so different iu appearance that he could be told in sight.

Wo have seen the time w hen the presidency was in exile. At that time I saw very few rays of sunlight. I did not think at that time that wo should see a conference like this. I think wn should be grateful for this blesniug. Hut I remember that EraMns Snow and John Taylor died in exile, and this thought easts a shade of sadness over me. They were faithful to the testi-mony they had received. Faithful in life and faithful iu death. 'There are many of us who feel that we arc learned iu the knowledge of the gospel, and we have but little fear that the gospel will by us bo forgotten and we turned away from tho truth. It is not a mani-festation from Cod that causes men to be faithful, nor is it visits of angels; it is their ow u diligence. There is but ou path, the path of duty. I know that we are engaged in the work of Cod, and I hope you w ill all strive to be faithful. APOSTI.K JOHM IlKNItV SMITH remarked that he was pleased to see so large an attendance, which was com-posed of saints from all over the land. It brings people together and gives an opportunity of getting together and comparing the know ledge of how the Father treats his children. Much of the labors of the apostles is in visiting jhe various stakes, while the lalsir of the presidency are arduous, yet if w e can be made partakers of the spirit on occasions of this kind, we can carry that influence among the people ami do much good. There is reason for con-cern when we understand tho tempta-tions aud trials of life. The work our Father has established has come to ac-complish a wonderful mission on the earth. We have been selected to manage the ship of Ziou, and wc have lieen fur-nished without instruction. May they be engraved deeper upon our hearts and wo b made to realize our responsibility. There is need of a more earnest effort iu the direction of the accomplishment of what we may consider as trilling affairs. There should be a reformation among us as an entire people. We cannot af-ford to bo neglectful of the responnibili-tie-that devolve upon us.

Chicago, April 5. Special. The conservative and wealthy citizens are much concerned about the differences between the working men and their employers, which aro still unsettled. The carpenters were the first to lay their demands for the season before their employers, and nearly all the trades in the city, except the bricklay-ers, have since followed their example. There is no apprehension iu any quarter that there will be any serious distur-bance of tho peace, but it is found that should the labor quarrel remain un-settled it will seriously affect tho work of the world's exposition, and will re-sult in a sort of a guirilla warfare, con-tinuing tho whole year, between em-ployers and employees. Several of tho most prominent citizens have already interfered to bring about a compromise, aud it is considered probable that, rec-ognizing tho wisdom of their counsel, both parties will consent to a settle-ment of their differences by arbitration, I'ERSON.U,.
