A letter was addressed to all Stake Presidents, excepting those of Canada and Mexico, asking them to ascertain the number of polygamists in their several stakes. The anti-Mormons in their petitions to Congress set forth wilful misrepresentations, to the effect that plural marriages were being solemnized as heretofore, &c., and Senator [Thomas] Kearns asked to be furnished with evidence to disprove such allegations, and this information is being sought for this purpose.
