WHEN great man falls there Is a
natural sympathy aroused in every
manly bosom. II Is well illustrated in
the case OF Mn. GLADSTONE. His oppo-
nents In England recoil from the blow
they have struck, and even those in
this country who desired his downfall
feel that great mar has fallen in Israel
whose loss may not DO easily supplied.

AN OHIO HANGING.
Particulars of wagner's MISUNDERSTANDING
of the Crime.

OF the Cflmes
COLUMBUS, O., July 31.-Valentine Wag-
her. German, of Morrow county, was exc
cuted at the Ohio penitentiary this morning
for the killing of his brother-in-law, Daniel
Sheehan on December 49, 1892 This was
the first hanging to take place at the Ohio
penitentiary under the new law, requiring
that all executions in the State shall take
place at the prison.
The trouble between Wagner and Sheehan
was of long standing and OF family nature
ard on the date named Wagner went to Shee-
hans house and told him that he had come
to kill him, and Immediately drew re-
vOlver and shot him and fired again, when
he tried to escape. The trials were long and
tedious, the Supreme Court affirming the
judgment of the lower court and the Cir
cult Court also affirming the judg
ment of the Common Pleas, and fix
ing the day of execution for July 81,
The Governor had been sought to inter
fere on all manner of grounds, but refused
to do anything after making complete
study of the case. He telegraphed from AL
lance at IL o'clock last night that he would
not interfere. Wagner leaves q father and
mother, each over eighty years of age. and a
wife and seven children. They took their
final leave of him yesterday afternoon, and
the scene was most affecting one.
The execution took place within the prison,
in place prepared for all executions, and in
the presence OF not more than twelve or fif
teen witnesses. Shortly after 2 o'clock the
Sherifs party entered the reception room,
and waited while the ministers were with
Wagner When the time came for the march
to the gallows, Wagner was entirely over
come. He begged piteously to be saved He
had almost to be carried to the trap, and
when there tried to lie down, begging all the
time to be spared. 1t was with the greatest
difficulty that the officers could prepare him
and adjust the moose. He struggled like
maniac The trap fell at 2:15, and the man
died instantly. -Four minutes later the body
was emf down

TORONTO'S FIRE.
The Most Destructive That Ever Occurred
i'm That City.

TORONTO, Ont, August 3.-The fire last
night was the most destructive that ever oc-
CURED in this city. An hour after it broke
out in the eight-story glucose factory the
flames extended for half mile along the
south side of the esplanade. Scores of YES
sells of all kinds were moored at the docks,
and all were destroyed. Henry Wort pri-
vate Waterman, is known to have persisted
in the flames. The most exciting scenes
were on the crafts at the docks. The crews
were cut off by the fire from the docks and
as the vessels caught fire they were forced to
jump into the water and swim for their
lives. So rapidly did the fire spread that
small boats were consumed before they could
be launched, and the sailors i'm the water had
to depend upon their own strength until
tugs from the outside could pick them up.
As ii was, many of them were badly scorched
and, it is feared, some fatally.
The exact loss or insurance can not be
given, but the loss is estimated at over
Sl,OOO,OO0. The glucose works were valued
at S25O,OO0 The schooner Annie Milroy,
valued at $4,000, was burned to the waters
edge. Among other buildings burned was a
number of boat houses, Abbotson's lumber
yard; Watts, James Il Co.'S lumber yards;
Currie, Martin q Co. 5 boiler works; the cor
poration wharf, Hamilton Il Sons elevator,
