Deputy United Slates Marshals Dyer nnd Cleveland arrested another fugi tive Dolygamist at 1J;H0 o'clock last night and 'running him over to the pen he was siated as P.ohert Parker, who for three years has ballled the eflorts of the sleuths. Tho prisoner was indicted by the grand jury in the second district some three years ago, who returned two true bills aeainst him, one charging poly- gamy and the other with having made false returns as postmaster at Washington, Wash-ington, an unpretentious town in Wash-' ingion county, over whoso correspondence correspon-dence he presided. Parker who fixes his age a 71 years was arrested but made his escape from Deputy Marshal j Armstrong and disappeared as if he had perished in the hissing depths of a whirlpool. He was finally , located in England and twice crossed the billowy pond ' be- I fore he was finally entrapped. Embold- ened by tho treacherous hope that the , authorities had abandoned his case, he ! returned to Zion and sought retirement in a dwelling at the corner of First West and Sixth South streets. Tho sunshine and the enthusiasm of confer- j ence week was too much for him and coining from his moorings he entered the tabernacle. It was while issuing with the multitude from the immense drum that, he was identified and word at once despatched to headquarters. Deputies Dyer and Cleveland took tho assignment and going to the nest last night at 9:30 descended on it. Parker escaped through the back door but was ovortaken and captured and taken before be-fore Commissioner Norrell this morning morn-ing was held in tho sura of $1000. |
