TOO YOUNG TO PLAY.
Miss Alice Pierce Forbidden to Appear
in "Hannele" at New York.

NEW YORK, April 25.-After a hearing
which occupied an hour and a half Mayor
Gilroy denied the application of Messrs
Rosenfield, through their lawyers, Samuel
and Maurice Untermeier, for permission
for Miss Alice Pierce to appear In the
English adaptation OF 'Hannele," which is
to be produced at the Fifth-avenue theater
next Monday Eldridge T. Gerry opposed
the granting of a permit the ground
that the young actress is not quite fifteen
years of age, and the play was ''impious,
blasphemous and immoral" Miss Maud
Banks, who takes the part of the dead
mother in the production, read the appari-
ton scene. and she was complinented by
the Mayor. Samuel Untermeier replied TO
Mr.. Gerry's attacks and asserted that the
play was anything else than impious and
blasphemous. Theodore Rosenfield appealed
to the Mayor TO give the young girl per-
mission TO play for one night but Mr..
Gerry strongly opposed the request In
giving his decision Mayor Giiroy read some
passages from the manuscript and said:
while am disposed to be very liberal in
allowing the production of plays / am con-
strained in this instance to deny the ap-
plication." The Messrs. Rosenfeld say
they will produce the play Monday
night with a young lady who is over six
teen years old in the title role.

ST. PAUL, Mimi, April 25.-The commit

the question was whether they represented
all of their coanployes. Mr.. II.ll explained
that he did not wish to settle the matter
with them and then find out that they were
not what they claimed and have TO settle
the schedules all over again. Mr. Hill also
wanted the men to go back TO work pend

last suggestion was promptly negdtived by

GIRL SHOT BY A PRIEST.
Mary Gilmartin Killed by Father DOM
mick O'Grady at Cincinnati.

CINCINNATI, April 25.-Mary Gilmartin,
a clerk employed by the Pulvermacher
Belt Company, on Sycamore street, was
shot and killed to-day while on h8 way
to work. The murderer gave the name of
George Reed, but letters found him
prove him to be Father Dominick O'Grady,
a Catholic priest, who came from Ireland
three months ago. Miss Gilmartin is from
Sligo county, Ireland. One of her brothers
is Father NJ. S. Gilmartin, of Chicago.
Miss Gilmartin met O'Grady in Ireland
where his attentions caused gossip. Last
September she came to America, and has
been in this city since January. The girl
had got in a street car to go TO her work,
but In some mysterious manner got off
again and was shot almost before her door.
OGrady took arsenic, but it did not kill
him. He confessed the murder: Among his
letters was written by Miss Gilmartin
to the Archbishop in Ireland, eXcupating
O'Grady from any wrong doing with her.

ORGANIZING THE CONVENTION.
The Speech of IL. w. ThOmpsOn-The
Decorations.

Tomlinson Hall was very appropriately
decorated with hangings Of flags and bunt-
ing. On all sides the star-spangled banner
was to be seen, some floating gracefully in
the air and others draped over the stage
and on the facing of the gallery. Conspic
uously hanging over the front Of the stage
was large crayon portrait of General
Harrison, draped in the Nations colors,
fianked on either side with portraits of
Lincoln and Grant. On the sides of the
gallery facing were the portraits of the
Nations honored dead, Garfield, Blaine and
Morton and the ever-honored and still
fighting champion of protection to the
American workman, Governor Mckinley.
The table used by the chairman was
covered with flags and on its front
plaster cast of the Republican emblem, the
eagle, spread its wings over the reporters
stand, as if TO inspire the representatives
of the press to every effort to give the
people a true and accurate account of the
convention. Not the least. by any means,
of all the things which added to the at
tractiveness of the hall was the large num-
bers of ladies seated in the gallery and on
the stage Ladies do not have any hesl-
fancy in taking a seat in a Republican
convention.
Long before the appointed hour the crowd
began to fill Tomlinson Hall until at 10
O'Clock every seat was taken and every
foot of standing room occupied by those
unfortunate enough to arrive too late to get
a seat. The arrangements for the care OF
the crowd made by Sergeant-at-arms Harry.
Mounts and his large corps OF assistants
were the best ever made for the care OF
a convention in this city. The delegates
were seated by districts on the main floor
with a small portion of it in the not
occupied by the delegates, rallied off for
the accommodation OF alternates The aisles
in the rear of the main floor were filled TO
overfiowing, and even the corridor sur
rounding the hall uncomfortably filled
when 10 o'clock arrived. The galleries were
as crowded as the main floor. the only diff
ference being that most of the men were
standing TO allow the large number OF
ladies TO be seated. The class Of people
who attended ,iiis convention was demon

w. S. BLATCHLEY, Of Vigo.

IT was a long session, unbroken by a
recess, that the Republicans of In
diana held yesterday, and the
ticket chosen was evolved from
the wen-fought contests of forty
three candidates. Never since the war has
there been such gathering of Republicans
in a State convention; never since the war
have the claims of candidates for nomina-
tions been so persistently urged. There
were several surprises, but, as has been
stated repeatedly before the convention
day arrived, there were no favorites, and
the tide might turn in any ones favor.
pede the convention in the interests of
several candidates. When the venerable
Richard w. Thompson. of Terre Haute,
who has been attending State conventions
of the Republican party further back than
the memory Of any man on the floor of
the convention yesterday runneth, took the
gavel he had a most orderly convention
before him. There were many exciting
scenes before the convention adjourned,
but they were only scenes of confusion.
and not scenes of disturbance. Tomlinson
Hall is the biggest auditorium in the State,
but 1t could not begin to hold half the peo-
pie who wanted to get inside of it yester-
day.
A strong feature of the day was the
speech of ex-Presdent Harrison, which not
only awakened much enthusiasm at the
time it was delivered, but grew on the
people as the day advanced. 1t was char
acteristic Of the great Indianian,
sound and right to the point. Hon. Richard
w. Thompson, vigorous under his eighty
four years as an oak, delivered a clear
speech, and it was seen that there still
clings to him those attributes which have
made him Indianas "old man eloquent"
There were no other speeches during the
session, the convention confining itself
strictly to the business of nominating,
without even hearing the short fights plac-
ing men before the convention.
