A WOMAN SENTENCED DEATH.


WASHINGTON, April 2G.-Grace Small
wood, small, weezened colored woman,
was today sentenced to be hanged October
II next. The crime of which she was CON
victed was the murder of her illegitimate
child at its birth by tying a shoe string
around its neck. Her mental condition is
open to doubt and she heard the sentence
of the court without emotion, and with
a meaningless smile upon her face.
She says that she is glad of
is going to die; that she wants TO go to
heaven and be with her child. In passing
sentence the court said that it had reason
to believe that the executive clemency
would intervene to prevent its execution.
This is the first time since Mrs Surratt 5
trial that a woman has been sentenced to
death in the district of Columbia.

ALLEN GETS SEVEN YEARS.
The New York Forger Sentenced to a
Term at Hard Labor

New YORK, Aug. l6.-Eben s. Allen,
the defaulting ex-president of the For
ty-second and Grand Street Ferry Rail-
road Company, who pleaded guilty to
two indictments charging him with the
over issue o. over 100000 worth Of the
stock OF the company, was sentenced by
Judge GIldersleeye, to-day, to seven
years imprisonment at hard labor on
each indiCtment-the maximum penal
ty fer the ohense. Allen looked pale
and downhearted. When he reached
the court room he was met by his cOun-
sci, Lawyer Eustis, and his brother FL
mer L. Allen. Lawyer Eustis tried TO
cheer Allen up, but did not succeed
very well.
The court room was crowded at IL
o'clock when Judge Gildersleeve enter
ed court. When asked what he had 10
say why sentence should not be pro-
nounced upon him, Allen turned and
looked at his counsel, but did not utter
q syllable. Mr. Eustis after some de-
liberation said there was nothing to add
to what had already been presented in
regard to the previous good character Of
the prisoner. Judge Gildersleeve then
pronounced sentence.
Allen turned sickly pale as he was
led back to the pen. He looked around
the court room. None of his friends,
except his brother, were present. Even
his wife, whose extravaganza is said to
have been the cause OF her husbands
rum, failed to come to court.

Dr. Cronin's Friends Call for His Slay-
ers' Punishment.
CHICAGO, Ill.,, Aug. l5.-trIends of the
late DR.. Cronin are holding section
of the annual Clan-na-Gael picnic at
Cheltenham Beach this afternoon. The
weather is delightful; the gathering of
people is large and the preparations
Tor their amusement are on
an elaborate scale. The amusements
opened at 2 o'clock this afternoon
with series of athletic games. These
are to be followed by addresses during
the afternoon and evening by Congress
man Foran, of Cleveland; NJ. j. Ryan,
OF Philadelphia; Congressman Lawler,
of Chicago; John Dewey, OF New York;
Thomas P. Tuite. of Detroit, and others
The following is synopsis of a long
series of resolutions to be presented for
adoption this afternoon. They pledge
support to the cause of liberty in
Ireland and to Parnell and Gladstone,
and, concerning Dr. Cronin's murder,
denounce II as the most heinous crime
OF the nineteenth century, and con-
tinue:
We also denounce with no less We
Ing to place the responsibility for that
assassination upon the Irish people by
deiaming the honorable reputation of
our murdered fellow-c citizen"
he resolutions declare that here in
Chicago was the plot conceived,
planned and executed; and demand
that the instigators of the crime, as well
as their dupes, be punished regardless
OF whether they masquerade in the gar
ments of patriotism or hide behind
deceived people"
The resolutions then declare that the
cause of Ireland has been retarded and
the friends of Ireland split up into
factions by designing men who ''in the
name of Ireland called for your money,
and in the name of Ireland failed TO
account for it, and they attempt to
brand as British spy the man who
was appointed to investigate these
great crimes, and in the name of Ire
land they led their criminals and dupes
to the Carlson cottage and murdered
DIR. Cronin."
Resolutions conclude with a glowing
tribute to DR.. Cronin's memory.

na-Gael demonstration at OgdeD's Grove
drew large crowd of people. The
grounds were thrown open at 10 O'Clock

WESTERN FOREST FIRES.
The Damage so Far Estimated at $500, 900
-Trsmps Suspected.


A dispatch of the 14th from Portland.
Ore, says: The atmosphere for miles
around is thick with smoke and cinders.
and burning brands are falling in show
ers. All the Northwestern country
seems to be burning up in forest fires.
The smoke has been SO dense in Port
land for the last two or three
weeks that for time 1t was
impossible to see far I'D the
street, and the sun and moon looked
like great balls of fire. In the harbor
the smoke has had the effect of fog, and
steamers have been required to blow
their whistles every few minutes to
avoid collisions. 1t is estimated that
the total damage by forest fire in the
Northwest this year will amount to
nearly S000,O00. Several farm houses
have been burned with the stables and
produce and stores, with quantities of
wheat of this years crop. Thousands
of cords of wood have been consumed.
Yesterday the flames swooped down
upon the settlement of Cedar MiIls and
lett the country barren. The people in
some instances had scarcely time to es-
cape and had to hurry through the
woods, the fire being so thick along the
regular road. An extensive fire is rag
ing IN Southern Oregon, south of Rose
bud, and number of houses have been
burned. Some of the forest fires are
the work of tramps. If they are not
treated well at any place they start for
est fires out of revenge. A number
were run out of McLesn's settlement in
Southern Oregon the other day and tax
ing to the woods started fire. 1t was
discovered in time and extinguished
and posse of men started after the
tramps and captured three. Ropes
were put about their necks and they
were strung up for some time and then
let down and thrashed soundly.

A New Dam.

A dispatch of the Goth SAYS: The gener-
al impression that the South Fork dam
would never be rebuilt appears TO be
erroneous, as there is a strong prcbabil-
ity that a fishing lake will again be es-
tablished in that locality. A member of
the fishing club of that name said to-
day that the belief that South Fork had
been abandoned as club resort was
mistaken. The club, he said, could not
afford to lose all the money
it had invested IN real estate
in that locality. The property was
worth fully 100000, and if the
fishing resort was not re-established
the whole investment would become
almost dead loss. The intention. he
said. was not to build dam of the size
of the one destroyed, but one which
would make the lake much less in size,
so that in the event of the barrier again
giving away no destruction to life and
property would follow. No move in
that direction will be made until after
the damage suit now pending against
the stockholders is settled.

OUTLOOK OF TRADE.
Banks Amply Supplied With FUNDS, and
Crop Prospects Excellent

BANKS amply supplied with funus, and
Crop Prospects Excellent.
r. G. Dun & Co., in their last weekly
review of trade, say: In all directions
business prospects continue encourag-
ing, and the changes during the past
week have been on the right side. Ex-
ports increase and a speculative rise
in breadstufis has been checked. In
terror cities report an increase in the
volume of trade, and the money mar
kets continue amply supplied, though
rates are gradually hardening. The great
industries appear to be IN fully as good
cond ition as last week, with clearer
evidence of lmproveme MT in iron.
Further crop news sustalns government
advices, ana strengthens the prevailing
impression that the August report as to
wheat was less favorable than the actual
situation. Considering that ali the rail-
roads, according to Poor's Review, paid
only $79, ,999, 900 in dividends last year,
decrease of one-eighth compared with
1887, and less than per cent. on the
stock reported. the restoration of peace
this year should have produced a
relatively greater change than has yet
appeared.
The business failures occurring
throughout the country during the last
seven days number, for the United
States ISL, and for Canada 50, total OF
2I3, as compared with a total OF POI last

COLLoMs LARGE BAIL BOND.
1t VIII Require 100 900 Surety to Get the
Young Man Out of Jail,

The Collom forgery case WAS again in
court at Minneapolis on the 18th. At
late hour the previous evening his
friends secured the sol 800 bail bond
necessary for his release. but the prose-
Cution were also on hand and prepared
for this move, and Immediately fled
three additional complaints against
the prisoner. This increased the
amount of bail required, and
Collom Was returned to jail.
He was again brought before the court
and three more complaints were forth
coming. The totSi number of COM
plants fled against Collom up to this
time were thirty-three. The sum it will
be necessary to raise in order to effect
Collom's release now aggregates $l02,-
500. The probability is that the state
will consent to an even 100000 bond.
1t is stated that no more complaints will
be filed. Collom's friends are said TO
be ready to meet this bail and the
young attorney will doubtless be re-
leased in the course of few days.
