MISS KBOUT'S JOURNEY.

She Meets With a Glorious Eeoeption In Ban Francisco. Miss Mary H. Kront on her way to the Hawaiian Island, was tendered a royal welcome in SanFrancieco and was pressed with attentions of all kinds during her stay there. In a lengthy article th6 SanFr.mcieiJo Examiner save:

Mary H. Kront, special representative of the Chicago Inter-Ocean and courier of Admiral Brown, of the United States navy, is in the city, and will leave Wednesday on the Australia for the Hawaiian Islands to correspond for the Inter-Ocean.

Miss Kront occupies much such a •position in journalism in the Mississippi valley as Annie Lowrie does on the

Pacific Coast. She has done much special work that has attracted a great deal of attention. She has also written considerable verse that has been widely copied, among which is the poem, "Lit tie Brown Hands."

In 1888 Miss Krout was the special and confidential correspondent during the bitter political campaign in Indiana when Benjiimin Harrison WHB the Republican nominee for the Presidency. For a good while past she has been editor of the woman's department and also of the home department of the big Chicago ptiper. Besides doing newspaper work in the late island kingdom she will look up some matters of interest relative to the World's Fair, of which she is one of the Board of Lady Managers. Mrs. Potter Palmer has specially commissioned her in this. She would have been in Hawaii before but a severe sprain from fall had pre-

vented her, and she is even now only able to get around on crutches Miss Krout alluded to her newspaper work last night, saying she had begun writing in her Indiana home when a mere child. "People think it odd." said

Bhe

"that

1 should have at any time entered a field so difficult, as they put it, as politics. However, I had touiething of a liking for it and as I got interested in my work saw new beauties in it. When I had charge of the Indiana cam paign I made my headquarters in Indianapolis, but traveled, notwithstanding, a great deal throughout the State. In all I wrote 110 letters. It kept me busy but I enjoyed it."

Miss Kront is President of the Woman's National Press League, the only organization of bona fide newspaper women in existence. She is also Chairman of the Press Congress Auxiliary, to be held during the World's Fair in Chicago, in connection with the Press Congress of men during month of May.

Miss Krout is rather tall, with light hair and eyes, very bright and tremen duously energetic. She intends to re main some tine in California on her return, and will visit some of the summer resorts..

Misa Krout, while in SanFrancisco, met and became quite intimately ac quainted with Volney Ashford, late commander of the Hawaiian army, and a revolutionist of such force and character that he was arrested for high treason on two counts, and fled to America in July last as a political refugee. "It is simply what I was looking for," he said. "I saw that annexation was inevitable. Sooner or later it had to be and it will be better for the natives and all concerned. They will make more money and get along better iu every way. "I don't believe, though, the Queen and the voung lady over in Europe who would have been a Queen, ought to get a great big annuity from the United States. The crown lands are valuable and are paying well, and I suppose that the royal family ought to get something as a standoff for them, though not their full value by any means. "The crown lands, though no such a fact, waB brought out by the Washington dispatches to-day in referring to them, really amount to about one-Jthird of all Haw«ii. There is a very large amount of gold land—how much would be hard to say—and there are millions of acres not worth a cent a million.

However, from such lands as are leased I believe the receipts are $100,000 to $150,000,000 a year.

A TE1UUTOBIAL GOVERNMENT. "I don't like the idea of a government something like that of the District of Columbia. It would be too cramped. I don't suppose we could get a Stale government, and I would, therefore, favor a territorial government, with a Governor appointed by the President and a delegate to Congress elected by the people. That would fit the case very well. "There is much interest in Hawaii in the East, and a good many are talking of going there. Should annexation be carried out, as it seems certain soon, land will go up, and I think there will be an unusual degree of prosperity."

After the grip, when you aso weak and "played out," Hood's Sarsapanlla will re store your health and strength.

HIS WILL WAS FORGED.

Verdict of tlio Jury In the McDonald I

Case—Widow of tlic tate Senator from Inilinim Detcutuil In (be CourtH. NOBI.KSVII.I.K, Ind., Feb. IS. -After being1 locked up all night the jury in the great McDonald will ise brought in its verdict Tliey found for the contestants, and it is thought Mrs. .McDonald will now carry the case to the su-1 preme court Mr. Winters made an able closing1 argument for the plaintiffs Thursday, and late in the afternoon Judge Stephenson charged the jury with great impartiality, leaving it entirely to them to decide whether the signatures to the will probated by the widow of the late senator were geuuine or not. The verdict declares them to have been forgeries.

The case has been on trial in Judge] Stephenson's court since January 'J3, a change of venue from Indianapolis to Hamilton county having been taken by Mrs. McDonald's attorneys, A. C. Harris and \Y. 1\ Fishback, Under the will which was probated in Indianapolis, Airs. McDonald, who was the third wife of the late Indiana senator, and was married to him in lSbl, was left the bulk of his fortune, only small legacies being left to his son by his first wife, Malcolm McDonald, and two favorite grandchildren. The amount involved was not large, only about S.'iO,000, but Malcolm McDonald believed that the will was not genuine and began action to upset it. The prominence of the late senator in politics and of Mr9. McDonald in social life lent great interest to the hearing of the case, every step in which has been eagerly followed in political and social circles, not alone in Indiana but throughout the entire country. The outcome of the case is a great disappointment to Mrs. McDonald, and she will no doubt carry it to the higher courts.

BIG SUM FOR PENSIONS.

House Allows SI GO.400,000—I-argost Appropriation Ever Mntlo by Congress for

Any 1'uritose. WASHINGTON, Feb. IS.—The pension bill was finally passed by the house Friday and appropriates the sum of 55166,400,000 for pension payments during the next. year. It is the largest pension item •on record, and indeed the largest appropriation of any kind which the house of representatives ever made. It passed free from the various pension amendments which have been proposed of late. These included transfer of the bureau to the war department and many other changes of radical nature. But every amendment was voted down. The post office appropriation bill was considered without final action.

The sundry civil appropriation bill occupied the exclusive attention of the senate Friday. The amendment, which had been discussed on Wednesday, and the effect of which is to continue in force the law for federal supervision of elections, was carried by a party vote. All the committee amendments having been disposed of and the bill being open to general amendment, the question as to the issue of 3 per cent, bonds to maintain the gold reserve was precipitated on the senate. The amendment was offered by Senator Sherman (0.) and a point of order was raised against it by Senator Stewart (2sev.). The point was, after discussion, overruled by the vice-president and an appeal from that decision was laid on the table by a vote of 28 yeas to IS nays. The merits of the amendment were discussed for the rest of the day and the adjournment came before the debate closed.

Jackson's Nomination Confirmed

WASHINGTON*, Feb. 20.—In executive session Saturday afternoon the senate confirmed the nomination of Associate Justice Jackson, and he will take his seat upon the supreme bench when the court meets on March 0. The democratic administration will then have assumed direction of governmental affairs. It is understood that no vote was cast against the new justice, the republicans and democrats alike favoring confirmation.

NOT GUILTY.

Verdict of the Jury in the Murder Trial at Homestead, s-

O POXXKI.L ESCAPES.

PITTSBUHGII,

Pa., b'eb. 20.—After

having been out all night the jury in the murder case against Hugh O'Donnell brought in a verdict of not guilty. When court opened on Saturday the room was again crowded with sympathizers of the defendant, who were anxious to hear the verdict. Hugh O'Donnell when brought into court war, a trifle paler than usual, and he scanned the faces of the jurors rather anxiously as they filed in. He was ordered to stand up and the verdict was read. As he heard the words: ".Not guilty," a wave of color spread over his face, his eyes became fixed for a moment and he tottered as though about to fall. Recovering himself O'Donnell stepped from the prisoner's box to his wife and niece, whom he embraced, while tears of thankfulness tilled their eyes. The Homesteaders present were all greatly pleased with the verdict, and the attorneys for the commonwealth correspondingly depressed, for they had expected a manslaughter conviction. This ends tlie Homestead trials until the March term of court. It is possible that all the other cases will go over until the June term of court, and the Homestead men now in jail will be admitted to bail.

O'Donnell was taken back to the jail, pending application for his release on bail, which will be made some day next week. O'Donnell must yet answer to treason, riot and conspiracy. Hail was once refused ou the additional charge of murder pending.

History of O'OonneU's Cafie. [O'Donnell's case, the trial of which began last Monday before Judge Stowe, is by far the most important growing out of the Homestead riot, which took place on.TulyO !»st and in which a number of Pinkerton mcu were killed. O'Donnell pleaded not guilty to the charge, and in his defense maintained that instead of inciting the Homestead men to violence and bloodshed he had done all he could to prevent it. The evidence went to substantiate this and it has been conceded throughout that the defense was making a very strong case. O'Donnell was at the time of the riot chairman of the advisory board of the amalgamated association, but disappeared from Homestead shortly after the riot occurred and Thomas J. Crawford was elected in his place. About a week after O'Donnell was arrested and cast into jail, from which ho has only been out iwice previous to the trial, once to an alderman's office and another lime into court on an application for bail, which wag refused. 1
