Show CANNOT BE successful az W have been informed that a lady of thia elty is acting as an agent or in some such capacity in behalf of the clarit able institution for which congress luring during its late session made a considerable sid erable appropriation we refer to the institution that it is iri proposed to lo establish as a home for 11 mormon 11 plural wives who lesire desire to sever their r marital associations in with this project tue the lauy lady referred rei erred to recently visited the residence of one ol 01 the brethren whose case is id in court and made certain overtures As to the lawre of the proposals we of course cannot ve fe certain but bul we can state them as they lave bave come to us with considerable directness yuu they are allowing for possible of the parties between whom the communication passed as follows tuat thai the plural wife is to be provided with a howe home tor herself herst lf and cu children ildren conditionally that shu subscribe to an oath to tue that she olie shall in future lor bior all time live separate and apart irom from tier her husband an understanding rs also to exist to the effect that toe the woman wo mail shall go 90 out oat to

associations we suggested to our informant that perhaps the institution for which congress appropriated and ot of which mrs angle claims to be tile the originator had been in this instance cun bounded with toe the orphans rome home aud and lay nursery but were assured that mere could be no such mistake witti with begard to the purport ot the ladys communications such propositions are necessarily
