of HIS Ruin and Disgrace.
NEW YORK, August 16.-Ebcn 5. Allen,
the dclaultng cX-prcsident of the Forty
Second and Grand Street Ferry Railroad
Company, who pleaded guilty to two
indictments charging him with the over
issue of 500, 900 worth of stock OF the
company, was sentenced by Judge Glider
sleeve to-day to seven years impriSon-
ment at hard labor on each Indictment,
the maximum penalty for the offence.
Allen looked pale and vcrydown-hcartcd
when he reached the court room where
Inc was met by his counsel Lawyer EuS-
tis and his brother Elmer l.. Allen The
court room was crowded at II o'clock
when Judge Gildcrslccvc entered the court.
When asked what he had to say, why
sentence should not be passed upon him,
Allen turned around, looked at his coun-
sci, but did not utter Il SYLLABLE Mr..
EuStiS, after dclibcratiOn, said there was
nothing to add to what had been already
presented to the court in regard to the
previous good character of the prisoner.
Judge GildcrSlcCve then said, "Mr. Allen.
you pleaded guilty to two indictments.
| have received letters from number of
friends of yours, and many persons have
been to see me with regard to your case.
But after very careful consideration of
the whole matter, taking into considcra-
tion what punishment could he inflicted
ON YOU for charges whichnrc not pressed,
| see no reason why should not impose
the maximum penalty. The sentence
of the court is that you be confined to
the State prison at hard labor for seven
years ON this indictmcni which hold in
my hand and under the other indict-
mcnt that you he confined at hard labor
for period of seven years, to begin at
the expiration Of the former term Allen
turned sckly pale as he was led back to
the pen. He looked around the court
room. There were none of his friends cX-
ccpt his brother to sympathisc with him;
even his wife, whose extravaganza is
said to have been the cause of her huS-
bands ruin, was not visible.

WEEKLY TRADE REVIEW.
The General Outlook In all Direc-
tiOms IL Encouraging.

New YORK, August 16.-R. G. Dun &
Co., in their weekly review of trade re-
port the number of failures i'll the United
States at ISL, and in Canada 50, making
a total of 2l3 for the last seven days,
against total of POI week ago, and
30 in the corresponding week last year.
lii regard to the general outlook the
report SAYS, in all directions business
prospects continue encouraging, and the
changes during the last week have been
on the right side. Exports increase. and
the speculative rise in hrcadSt uffS has
been checked. Interior cities report an
increase in the volume of trade, and the
money markets contnuc amply supplied,
though rates are gradually hardening.
The great industries appear to be i'll fully
as good condition as last week, with a
clearer evidence ofimprovement i'll iron.
Further crop news sustains the govern
1uvut advices and estimates as to cotton,
e,,rn and oats, and strengthens the pre-
wiling impression that the August re
p'it as to wheat, was less favor
alri' han the actual situation showed.
In spite of small advances in some prod
uCts the general range Of prices has not
materially changed, and railroad earn
in"S continue good, though all llcontrovcr-
sizes have not as yet been cleared away.
Conference OH the MaybrlcI< Case.
LONDON, August 16.-Homc Secretary
Matthews, Mr.. Justice Stephens, the Lord
Chancellor and medical experts are to-
day holding a conference at the Home
Office with Il view to arriving at a dc
,cisi i'm in the Maybrick case. The con
ference lasted four hours, 1t is regarded
as a certainty that the Home Office is in
doubt, and it is believed that the result
of the deliberations must necessarily he
pardon or communication of sentence.
Home Secretary Matthews and the
experts assumed that Mrs. Maybrck was
not guilty, and acting upon this assump-
tion silted every scrap Of testimony
given, especially that in relation to her
husbands craze for arsenic which is ol
great weight, and will, It'll believed, turn
the scale in the prisoners favor. 1t is a
noteworthy fact that the Lord Chancel.
lOr.is seldom consulted in such cases ex.
cept when n reprieve is meditatcd.
The press association states that Home
S"rpetary Matthews will recommend 10
Ducen the communication of the death
s,ut,nlc Of Mrs. Maybrick to penal ser.
vitude for lie; and that the commute,
tinr ofscntence will be announced after the
Queen has given a formal assent.

WHO Can Marry In Soutf Carolina +?

We clip the following Sections from
the Revised Statutes of South Carolina !:
SECTION 2O27. All marriages con,
tracted while either of the parties has a
former wife or husband living, shall be
void !; Provided, That this Section shall
not extend to person w hose husband or
wife shall be absent for the space of.seVen
years, the one not knowing the other to
be living during that time; nor to ang
person svho shall be divorced, or whose
first marriage shall be declared void by
the sentence Of a competent court.
Sec. 25S9. Whoever being married,
and whoee husband or wife has not
remained continually for seven years
beyond the sea, or continually absent
himself or herself, the one from the
other, for the space of seven years
together, the one of them not knowing
the other TO be living within that time,
or Who were WAS not married before
the age of consent; or where neither hus'
band or wife is under sentence Of impris.
onment for life; or whose marriage has
not baen annulled by decree of q COM.
peteut tribunal having Jurisdiction both
of the cause and the parties-shall mar.
~ another person, the former husband or
wife being alive, shall on conviction, be
punished by imprisonment in the Peoi'
tentiary. for not more than FIVE years, nor
less than six months, or BY imprison.
ment in the Jail for six months, aud by a
6ne of not less than five hundred dollars.
From the above law it appears that a
person divorced BY competent tribunal
may marry again in this State. The
law of South Carolina, while silent on
the divorce question does not make it
unlawful for q divorced person to re-
marry in South Carolina.
The Revised Statutes of South Carroll.

Men Not Equal.

A st. Louis Republic reporter recently
had the following interview with the
Rev. DR.. R. A. Holland:
"Dr. Holland" said the reporter, "the
reports of your speech before one of the
Episcopal societies in New York have
you say that all men are not born free
and equal, as the declaration of indie.
pendence reads, and as every youth of
the land is taught along with the rudi.
ments of their education"
DR.. Holland was sitting on an easy
settee, leaning back on the upholstered
arm, and as the reporter spoke be half
raised in his seat, and, with eyes fairly
blazing In the conviction of his belief,
he said: "Well, are they2 Can any.
thing be more absurd than to say that
men ara born free and equal? ] assert
again, and I think no man can gainsay
it, that men are not born equal in any
way, physically, mentally, OF morally,
except in the fact that all men are born
men. You might as we'll say that all
men are equal from a physical stand,
point, that the man who is weak physi-
cally is the match. from physical point
of view, with the giant. Theoretic
democracy is absurd. 1t never did and
never can exist on earth or in heaven.
Men are not equals anywhere-not in
governmental rights, any more than in
physical strength, wealth or talent. Nor
are men equal in any sense before the
law. They are not enlisted into the
army equally, cannot 60 to West Point
or Annapolis equally; may not pass
competitive examinations for civil ser
vice equally, nor equally become public
school teachers, nor pay equal taxes, nor
stand with equal severity before the
criminal courts. Equality before the
law means simply that law is law, and
men are meu-a tautology not quite
aphorisnlic on the part Of those who, by
acute distinctions would save the Decla-
ration of Independence and democracy
from nonsense. Law is equal inasmuch
as its distinctions ect uniformly. These
.o tho ,,;ouu in a nutshn1l uh;nh no no
before the society, and am free to main.
tain that the theory is true one. There
was no excitement over these statements
among the members of the society or the
convention, and WIS surprised to find
that so much had been said on the sub.
ject by the people and the press of the
country"
