Tucson, March 30.1"!! is concluded that the two "rustlers" mortally wounded in a fight at Chandler's ranch were the murderers, or accessory to the murder, of yoUDg Peel at Charleston. The warrants upon which the Sheriff's posse were acting were only upon charges of horse stealing, which could not Drobablv be maintained, and in defiance of an arrest on such a matter it is not thought the rustlers would have resisted to tho death As one of them also wore a hat iruch too large for him, and as a lost hat was found near the scene of the murder, the indications aro that they aro the guilty parties. Mormons llnlglnc Salt Lake, Maich 30. It is evident the Mormon leaders fear trouble from the Ed munds bill when it goes into operation. John Taylor, Apostle Joseph Smith and others have quietly removed then wives to separate house, thinking thereby to avoid arrest un der the clause which makes cohabitation with more than one woman a misdemeanor. Tay lor's first wifo only resides in tho olficial rest deuce of the church president with him. Nu merous polygunous office-holders havo also resigned and their places havo been tilled by monogamists. In this way they can defeat tor a time tho purposes of the bill, as, when an investigation is made, it will bo found that comparatively few polygamists hold office, whereas not ten per cent of the offices were occupied by monogamists before the passage of tho bill. It is said no polygamous mar riages havo been celebrated since thn bill passed, but as marriages are always secret nothing definito can bo learned concerning them. Several Utah gentlemen aro candi dates for commissioners, but the masses of the people, Mormon and Gentile, prefer commis tioners from abroad, believing they will be less liable to prejudice.

Mr. 'lrescott adds that the publication of the instructions to him and a confidential tele gram from him made it impossible to sccuro modification from Chili. Gentlemen familiar with tho Peru-Chili controversy, and who tako a great interest in South American af. fairs, declare tho instructions to lrescott wcro made public against the most earnest and repeated protests of Maine ; that the I'rcsiilcnt hail promised Jllaino that the in structions shout.
