TYPHOID EPIDEMIC
ON AT CENTREVILLE
Cases So Numerous That

CENTREVILLE. Md, Aug. 26.-Cen-
treville is in the throes Of a typhoid
fever epidemic. as was predicted sew
eral weeks ago by one of the prom
inent physicians of the town. The
cases are so numerous and the disease
is spreading so rapidly that the Com
missioners have become alarmed and
have sent three bottles Of water from
the towns supply-viz., one from the
standpipe, another from the reservoir
and the third drawn from the pipes in
the center of the town-to the State
Board Of Health to be analysed.
Some have attributed the cause of
the epidemic to the filthy condition in
which the hitching racks have been
kept all during the summer. when
stagnant pools of water and filth were
allowed to stand for hours. This
theory is not corroborated publicly by
the physicians
No deaths have yet been reported
from the disease.

TOMATO SEASON LATE.
But Peach Gamers In Hartford Are
Busy With Crop.

HAVRE DE GRACE, Aug. 26.--As
the end Of August draws near specula-
ton is rife concerning the tomato out
look for this year. The season Is so
much later than usual that scarcely
a cannery will be In full blast before
the end OF another week.
The crop is varied in appearance
and promise. With few plants to Sc
lect from last June a good stand was
the exception rather than the rule.
and the dry weather of the past six
weeks has not helped to even up con-
ditions.
The big packing house OF S. ]. Sem
eca here began work last Friday and
has been putting up from 500 TO 1000
bushels a day, while the capacity of
the plant is 5000 bushels a day. Most
OF the tomatoes packed thus far are
being brought over the bay from Cecil
and Kent counties.
In the corn belt surrounding Aber-
deem preparations are being made 10
begin packing corn the latter part of
this week. A few trial runs have been
made, and the Gamers think IL Is like
ly the usual pack of 100000 cases will
be made. Corn prospects I'm dry sec
tons are very poor. as the lack OF
rain has cause the lower blades 20 die
and has so retarded its growth that
the crop has been permanently dam
aged.

CR|PPEN MAY LIVE

Execution Postponed Owing to
New Point Announced in
English Law Procedure.


nounced to-day that Or. Hawley II. Grip
pen, convicted and sentenced to death
for the murder of his wife. Belle Elmore,
would not be executed Tomorrow as or
iginally arranged, for the reason that the
law provides that two weeks must elapse
between the dismissal OF an appeal and
the carrying ont of the sentence. No
vember 90 has been fixed upon as the
date for the execution. Meantime Soici-
tor Newton. Crippen's counsel. Is draft
ing petition for a reprieve
The Philadelphia Press yesterday morn
ing published an interview with Francis
r. Tobin. a lawyer OF that city. who
stated that he was In possession of proof
that Belle Elmore, for whose murder DR.
Crippen has been sentenced to death. was
alive and hiding near Chicago. Mr. Tohin
intimated that he would ask the state
department to direct the American am
bassador at London to lay the matter be
fore the British home secretary,
1t is far cry from Mr.. Tobn's asser-
ton to the official announcement at Lon
don that the execution Of Crippen would
be delayed until November %, but the
coincidence is striking in view of the
fact that the announcement was the
first intimation that the English Law
provided for fortnight's delay between
the dismissal Of an appeal and the eXecu
tlon Of a death sentence. on the contrary
it was understood that the appeal hear
ing was set for November 8 in order tina
a postponement OF the execution would
not be necessary. When the appeal "1'
denied on Saturday the announcement OF
the courts decision was coupled VITA
what was taken to be a confirmation o
the order Of execution which provided
that Crippen should die to-day.
