Deseret News story that a reporter for the New York Herald claims that there were two attempts to kill him during the past week in Salt Lake City, a knife attack and a shooting. On 2 June, the Deseret News dismisses his claim as "a vile plot gotten up... to revive the anti-'Mormon' excitement." On 23 June it editorializes that the New York reporter "is really in mental disorder," but two days later defends the city's investigation as a serious effort.
