.COND EMNED TO DIE.
Statement That Cronin's Death Was
Instigated by q Clan-na-G Gael
Camp.

CHICAGO, June 24.-Camp 20 of the Clan
na-Gael and its methods will be thoroughly
Investigated by the grand jury. and it is more
than probable that ten or more of its mem.
bers will be indicted for the murder of Dr.
Cronin The states attorney has already in
his possession enough evidence to hang at
least half that number and before the grand
jury resumes consideration Of The Cronin
case Wednesday he expects to have a
complete cham of evidence encircling the
camp, or at least the guilty me mbers
Shortly after the finding of the body the
states attorney received an anonymous let
ter which set forth at great length the de-
tails of a meeting of Camp 20 in February.
At this meeting, the letter says,
Dr.. Cronin was tried as British
spy, found guilty and sentenced to
death, and his executioners were
chosen by secret ballot To-day Clan-na-
Gael man corroborated the contents of the
letter in every detail. Who he is could not
be learned, but so satisfactory was the in
formation he gave the judge that he said an
hour later: GIVE got evidence enough now
to hang half a Dozen" This man further re-
vealed, it is said, that the trial, condemna-
ton and execution of Cronin was entirely in
accordance with the usages of the Clan as
practiced In other cases, notably that of the
informer Carey, who was tried by the same
process under which Dr. Cronin suffered
death.
ANXIOUS FOR TRIAL.
z Ex-Detectiye Dan Coughlin, Frank Wood
ruff and 2. O'Sulivan were brought before
Judge Shepard to-day to learn whether they
wished to be tried at this term of court.
Coughlin stated that his attorney was too
busy to attend to his case now and he
would like his case continued. O'Sulli-
van and Woodruff, however, declared
they We're ready for trial Attorney
Nicely stated to the court that he did not
wish one case continued unless the others
were, and at his suggestion the prisoners
were taken back to Jail. States Attorney
Lungenecker was asked what be thought of
Woodruff and OSullivan's apparent willing
ness to go TO trial He replied: ave have
evidence enough to hang both those fellows
Let them go to trial if they wish.
1t is now understood that no date will be set
for the trial until after the extradition of
Martin Burke. the Winnipeg suspect, as the
evidences against him is really stronger than
against any of the other indicted men. SUI
perintendent Hubbard received a pho
tograph of Martin Burke from Win
nipeg. 1t represents rather vi
cious and and dangerous person. The lines
of the face are strong and harsh. There was
a weeks growth of beard when the photo
graph was taken. sThats the man." said
the chief with evident satisfaction and as if
implying that he would be able to solve the
Whole mystery of the Clonin murder through
Burke's aid.

Minor Casualties.

George and Freddie Sinskey, Twelve and
twenty years respectively, were drowned in
the Des Moines river.
Latrobe, Pa, will be probably larger than
was first reported, and the death list may
reach forty-five.
While playing in a wheat bin which was
being drawn off into car Ben Marks and
Judson Horton, two young boys of Lima,
ONO, were drawn into the shute and smoth
cred to deaths
A terrible accident occurred at Bledsoe, on
the Chesapeake & Nashville railroad running
from Gallatin to Scottsvile, KY. A passen-
ger train jumped the track and the passen-
ger and baggage coaches went down about
sixty feet Conductor E. G. Buck and Mail
clerk Henry Peacock jumped and were not
hurt. About eight persons were seriously
injured, and several children were more or
less hurt The wrecked cars were badly
smashed, and it is feared there are few
bodies under the wreck.
The tottering south wall of the building
occupied before the fire by Toklas, Singesman
Co.. on Front street, and known as the
San Francisco store, fell over IN in Seattle
knI cking down also the remaining wall of I'm.
ion block adjoining and killing Charles
Schmidt, a german laborer who had been
employed picking up cbrick in the Union
block ruins. Another laborer, James Brew
ster, an Englishman, was at work on the top
OF the falling wall, and suffered severe injur-
les.
triple collision of freight trains on the
Pennsylvania railroad occurred near La
trobe, in which thirty one cars were wrecked
and from twenty five to thirty men killed. A
west bound freight train left the yards short
ly before 3 O'Clock and had just reached the
bridge over the Loyal Hanna creek when it
collided with an extra freight train coming
from the opposite direction. Another freight
was standing on o side track on the bridge,
and the colliding trains crashed against it,
causing one locomotive and large number
OF cars to go over the edge of the bridge in
to the creek fifty feet below. An oil car near
the middle of the train was the last to go
over Its contents were scattered over the
shattered cars, and the debris took fire. The
loss OF life cannot be accurately estimated
Aside from the train-m men, tits known that
there We're between forty and fifty men on
the westbound train who had been working
at ) ohnstown. Theywere paid off and were
endeavOrlng to reach their homes. The in
Jured were attended by the Pennsylvania
railroad company surgeons, and with the ex-
ceptlon OF those whose injuries are too criti-
cal to allow them to be moved were sent to
the county home or to the hospitals in Pitts
burg.

The Speaker ship.

WASHINGTON, June 24.-Not a word has
been heard about an extra session of con-
gress in October since Congressman Burrows
Went West Burrows was the last of the can
dates for s peaker to leave town. The i'm
preston is beginning to prevail that the ex-
ira session talk was all inspired by persons
interested in the speakership contest Every
candidate was loudly In favor Of it. Reed
wanted an early session to reform the rules
Mckinley thought it necessary to reduce the
surplus Burrows thought it important to
organize the house before December,
and SO on through the list These
candidates for speaker are very influential
persons, and have plenty Of friends ready to
repeat their arguments. So long as they
We're here, the necessity Of an extra session
was ringing in the public ear at every turn.
Since they have gone away, though there are
still a great many members of congress left
in Washington, the movement seems to have
fallen fiat The candidates for speaker may
return and bring a load of extra session
sentiment back with them; but the general
impression now prevailing that the move
ment has little vitality apart from that grow
ing out of their personal aspirations will fall
upon them like a wet blanket
The real desire for an early session has
always been confined to the lower house.
The idea has never been welcome one to
the senators, though many of them were
ready enough last winter to agree to an
extra session in October as a compromise if
they could only be spared summons to
assemble in the spring. A good many sena-
torial junkets, public and private. can be
barely finished by Oct 1, ard most OF
these gentlemen want the fall months at
their homes. The members of the cabin ct
view the prospects Of an extra session with
horror. 1t would fill their ante-rooms with i'm
poltant members of congress clanloring for
offices and double the dem ands upon their
attention just at the time when they wantto
command little leisure to prepare their an
nual reports. Whatever influence members
of his cabinet have with the president will
be exerted against the calling together OF
congress in special session. The personal
comfort and convenience of the president is
as much concerned as that of the cabinet,
An extra session would bring horde of new
congressman here to worry and harass him.
Undoubtedly his sense of pu bic duty would
lead him to bear this cross if an extra session
were demanded by public opinion and the
interests Of public business. But he will
hardly do it to suit the convenience of three
or four candidates for the speakership

The Danmark Met the Fate Feared by Its
OHicers-Criminal Carelessness.
NEW York, April 23.-Oolof Wieg-
land, IL of the passengers of the i'll
fated steamer Danmark, made a state
ment to the United Press reporter which
has not yet appeared in print in connec-
ton with the casualty. He said before
the accident occurred, about the LIST or
I'd of April, one of the Norwegian emf
grants told him he had overheard a con-
versation j II the officers quarters. One
of the ships officers had said tt the
others in the apartment that he thought
the vessel would never reach New York.
Her machinery was in bad order and
had not received the care it should have
before the steamer sailed. The
pumps We're broken, and in case of an
accident would be found of little
use. The officer is reported as saying,
I'm afraid the Dapmark will meet the
fate of the Geiser." (Which vessel of the
same line was sunk off Nova Scotia by
a collislon.) Wiegland further said the
vessels coal boxes were afire on two
occasions before her machinery gave
%way-first on the night of the 29th and
second on the afternoon of the follow
ing day. The passengers We're very
uneasy over these accidents, equally or
more SO than when the vessel became
totally disabled. He was loud in his
praise of Capt. Murrill and the officers
and crew of the Missouri, and said
Capt. Murrill acted with Spartan hero
ism and neglected his own comfort to
provide for the unfortunate people.

JenDasis,u Romance.

The fret marriage OF Jefferson Davis
was of D somewhat romantic character,
says the Philadelphia News. Afs.r
graduating ut West Point he was order
ed &c Fort Crawford as Prairie do Chieu,
Wis, tine post then commended by Uol.
Zachary Taylor. TIE daughter OF the
latter, Miss Snllie Knox Taylor, at once
fell desperately In love with the band
some and Intellt ciual young lieutenant,
and the affection Was r~eciprocated, but
the Old colonel was averse to any match
making under the circumstances and
perempto.ily forbade Davis from visit
ing bis quarters except In al Cticlal
capacity. The lovers managed to see
each other by stratsgem, however, and
one morning at daylight they were miss-
ing. The household was instantly arous-
ed, the servants ipterTogsied, and a
search made, but nothing ives ELECTED
save that the door of the stable was
open, four horses were gone, and their
tracks indicated a hasty departure.
Further examination of the premises
showed that Lieut.. George Wilson,
brother OF Thomas 8. Wilson of Du-
budue, Iowa, and Miss Street, daughter
of tfen. Street, bad likewise disappeared
There wss but ore conclusion, and in
less than fnY hou every man, woman
and child in the village knsw all about
the runaway match.
Col. Taylor was enraged end declared
with IN oath as strcng rs he ever used
that under no cireum instances would he
forgive Davis or become %reconciitd to
his daughters disobediepce Sixteen
years passed. "Oid Z,ch" was in &C NJ
mapd OF the United States army in
Nj xieo. and sesvir 6 under him was Col.
j Jefferson Davis ct the head OF the
famous FIRST Mississippi rifles. at the
battle of Buens Vista this regiment
covered itself with glory, but DaviP,
while leading one of Its charges al q
critical moment, fell severely. and, it
was supposed, MORALLY wounded. He
was borne from the field, and that eve
ming Gen. Taylor, mounted on Old
Whitley, paid him a visit. Dismounting,
he stepped to the %colonel's cot and ex-
tended his hand.
"Jef," he said, "you have saved the
day with your slor,ons rifles; now lie.
bygones be bygonea; KNOX (the name by
which he always called bis daughter)
knew you worth and mettle better than
I did"
From that moment, through the war,
and indeed, until the death of President
Taylor, the warmest friendship existed
between the old companions in arms.
