NEW YORK, June 2.-Johann Most,

Recorde- Smyth. in sentencing Most.
expressed deep regret that the law
did not permit him 70 impose heavier
sentence. His crimes. he said, deserved
the punishment awarded 10 capital
often es. He also told him he was the
greatest scoundTei he had ever seen at
that bar. To Braunschweig, the re-
corder said, he was Almost equally
guilty. Schenck, he thought, was the
dupe OF his companions, but he deserved
TO warn him and others

men as Most. None of the prisoners

AMERICAN FORESTRY.
The omIng Meeting to be Held at
Denver.

The American Forestry Congress. in
response to an urgent invitation from
the Colorado State Forestry Association,
seconded BY the Chamber OF Commerce
of the City of Denver. will hold its fifth
annual meeting in that city. in the
month of September (probably 10th or
1sth), the exact date to be announced
hereafter.
The generous hospitality of Denver is
so well known and the energy and zeal
of the Colorado Forestry Association so
well proven in its short but effective
career, that nothing but hearty and
well-pTepared reception of the Congress
and most useful and helpful reform
/ may be anticipated.
The Chamber of Commerce, off ring
their ample hall for the sessions, have
also appointed committee TO look af-
ter the comfort of members and visitors
of the Congress, and TO secure = mum
Der Of excursions in which opportunity
for an inspection OF the resources and
beauties OF Colorado will be afforded.
The president of the Forestry Associ-
alton, Mr.. Geo. II. PARSONS. in trans
hitting the invitation of his society.
says: I'VE hope that you will come
with strong force. TO whom we will
give a fitting and enthusiastic recep-
ton. In no field can your labors bear
better fruits than here. for the forests.
or some substitute for them. are ne
cessity OF our existence. and public at
tention must be aroused to that fact"
With this meeting the Congress will.
for the first time. move out Of the
n he aaNl 4
over the treeless plains to their western
border.
Conditions and problems will be pre-
sented which have hitherto received but
passing glance in the discussions Of
the Congress.
While in the east the economic ques-
ton is paramount. and the wasteful
uses OF the native forests and the de-
structive tendencies of our generation
call for check and for moral educa-
ton, here in the west the great problem
IS the necessity. and with It the diff
Guilty OF creating forests under most
unfavorable conditions, where nature.
probably crippled by the ruthless hand
OF the savage, seems TO have lost to a
large degree its power of spontaneous
rejuvenation.a
In its eastern portion Colorado is con-
cerned with the same problems of tree
planting which especially interest the
settlers of the plains, while in the
western part of the State the problems
OF our eastern wooded hillsides and
mountains have particular bearing.
The questions. whether and how far
the influence of forest cover on water
supply can be established: whether and
how far forest growing will change
agricultural conditions in the arid re-
gion; whether and how far forest Gull
ture is there possible, and what the
proper means OF the reforestation of
