IN. S. QUAY"
Thus Senator Quay telegrauhed to the
cashier of the Peoples Bank of Philadei-
phia, who later on committed suicide.
Quay exercised great influence over
State-Treasurer Haywood and it is
shown by documentary evidence now in
the possession Of the State that the Urea
surer promised not to check upon 5000 900
ot state funds held in that bank until
Quay had paid or arranged for loan OF
10000 that had been made to him. Hay
wood is supposed to have been "the plum
tree" referred 10 in the telegram from
San Luce.

n valley between two ranges, and you
ride on mules about the precipitous
slopes to reach 1t. In good weather the
trip may be made in eight days; now
the mules must wade through the mud
up to their hellles, and in descending
some of the ,declivlties they sit down
and slide. There are here, however,
many people who have lived in Quito,
and my information concerning the
city will give you an idea of the place
as 1t Is today. Quito Is about mile
square. 1t would Just cover four 1867
acre farms. The streets are laid out at
right angles, but are very narrow and
are such that the man who introduced
the first carriage Into the town had to
get a permit to do so. Just back of the
city is the active volcano Mount
Pichlncha and all about 1t on the sides
of the valley, walllng ii in as 1t were,
nre some of the highest peaks of the
Andes Mount Pichincha is snow
capped and its peak Is so near quito
that the ice used for making the ice
cream of the city comes from there.
Mount Pichlncha has a crater half n
mile wide Mt the bottom 1t Is a mile
higher up in the air than Mount Aetna,
and its fires are such that it has been
said that Vesuvius would be portable
furnace beside 1t. The top of this
mountain can be reached by horses in
u five hours ride from quito. Stand
Ing On the SloUt VI 4hpuHt
Quito lies in the valley below you, 1t
10 city of white adobe two story
houses covered with red tiles. The
houses look low and squatty, and you
see among them large number of
converts, monasterles and churches.
Fully one-fourth of the town is taken
up with church establishments, and
there are as many priests and nuns to
the square as you will find in the city
of Rome. quito has always been a
great supporter Of Rome, and its con-
tributions to the Catholic church have
been so many that 1t has been called
THE little mother OF the pope"
THE GOVERNMENT OF ECUADOR.
Until lately the government of Ecua-
dor has been largely a union OF church
and state and today the priests have
great influence. Catholicism Is the on
ly religion OF the country, and by
Catholicism I do not mean the liberal
religion of Archbishops Ireland and
Gibbons, but the Spanish Catholicism.
which is as bad almost as that of the
days of the inqulsition and of the mid
die ages. Ecuador IL, you know,
nominally a republic. but voters must
belong to the church and must be
able to read and write Not more than
one-tenth OF the people can do the lat
ter. so the educated whites practically
control the elections-I should rather
say that the officials control them. and
