QUAYS WILL BE TRIED
JUDGE FINLETTER REFUSES To
QUASH THE INDICTMENTS,
And Says He VIII Treat the Case Like
Any Other Criminal Proceeding
Trial to Begin Dec. IL.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Dec. Judge
Finletter in the Court of Quarter Sessions
to-day overruled all the motions of objec-
lions filed by the defendants counsel to the
five indictments found by the grand jury
against United States Senator NJ. S. Quay,
his son, Richard r. Quay, and ex-State
Treasurer Benjamin J. Haywood. The
defendants were not in court, but r. F.
Shapley, their senior counsel, on announce
ment of the judges decision, moved to in
struct the clerk to enter pleas of not guilty.
This being done District Attorney Graham
stated that the commonwealth was ready to
proceed to the trial at once, and asked the
court to fix an early date.
Mr.. Shapley stated that the books and &C.
counts presented at the magistrates hearing
were voluminous. These matters of evil
dence he and his colleague had not had an
opportunity to examine. They desired to
have an expert go over these accounts care
fully before they would be ready to combat
the allegations of the commonwealth and
he asked that date not earlier than Dec
II be fixed. He said, furthermore, that his
colleague, A. S. L. Shields, had an i'm
portant case in the United States Court on
Monday next. which would probably occupy
his time several days. He would therefore
be obliged to conduct this trial alone should
the date be fixed for next week.
Judge Finletter, in reply to Mr.. Shapley,
stated that he would treat this case as that
of any other ordinary criminal proceeding
on the docket, and he could not therefore
grant the time asked for by defendants
counsel. He had intended fixing Monday
next as the date for trial. but in Difference
to Mr.. Shields's professional engagement on
that day, he would appoint the following
day, Tuesday, Dec. 6, for the opening of the
trial. He stated that he considered that
ample time for counsel to prepare their de-
Tense. Later in the day. however, the judge
reconsidered his decision and fixed Monday
Dec. II, as the day for opening the trial.
Four of the five bills OF indictment found
by the grand jury charged the defendants
with conspiracy to misuse the funds of the
State on deposit in the Peoples Bank for
their own benefit and profit and the fifth
Indictment charged Benjamin j. Haywood
with illegally loaning 100000 of the states
funds, over which he had control De-
murers were entered by defendants counsel
last week to the first four indictments, but
Judge FInletter to-day declared these de
murers not sustained. motion to quash
the fifth indictment was also overruled by
the judge.

on the Dyea and skaguay trails. A por-
ton Of this has found its way back to be
these towns. The seizures by the custom
officers for the past year have probably
amounted to $500 gallons. The amount of
foreign liquor which has been Struggled will
probably amount to $4,000 gallons. None of
this foreign liquor has at any time brought
any revenue to the United States"
Recommendation is made for a high license
liquor law, tax of a few cents case on
salmon, and 10 cents ton for wharfage.
The first two combined would net at least
$235 900 annually, the third 100000, based on
this years wharfage. 1t is also recon-
mended that the general land laws be eN-

GOVERNOR BRADY's REPORT.
He Begs Congress to LegiSlate for
Misunderstanding of Liquor.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-The annual re-
port of Governor Brady, of Alaska, briefly
summarized In Secretary Blisss report was
made public to-day. 1t makes a strong
plea for congressional action on Alaska s
needs at the coming session, and begs Con-
gress to treat Alaskans as American citi-
zens. and not to classify them with Ka-
nakas, Filipinos and Cubans. 1t points out
that Alaska is thirteen times larger than
Cuba. has been ''in our possession for thirty
one years, and it's value has been unknown
and unappreciated." Governor Brady de-
clares that 'it would seem as impossible to
prevent smuggling of liquor into Alaska
as it would be to prevent the clouds from
rolling by or the tide from ebbing or flow
ing" though the support of the collector of
internal revenue by three or four revenue
cutters and a number Of steam launches to
patrol southeastern Alaska would largely
check the evil. The Governor says: The
more that the collector and his force stop

age price which the dealers pay the SNUG

tho market at Port Townsend is worth from

considers this a high price. he undertakes
to adulterate it, and by his vliiain0us COM
pound succeeds in making two or three gal

FILTH, sQUAL0R, DESTITUTIoN
POORER CLASSES WHO MUST RE-
CEIVE AID.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 26.-General M.
c. Butler of South Carolina, a member
of the Cuban Evacuation Commission,
arrived to-day from Havana in re-
Spouse to a telegraphic summons from
President Mckinley, and this afternoon
he had two hours consultation with
the President at the White House.
General Butler gave it as his opinion
that all the Spanish troops will have
departed ten days before the date fixed
in the agreement. He says the Span
iards have met the American Commits
sioners with reasonable fairness, and
that there has been little friction. Some
of the claims they have made for COM
pensation for Spanish property have
been ridiculous and they will, of course,
be abandoned in the end. General But
Ter denies all the reports of dissension
among the members of the American
Commission.
General Butler is of the opinion that
the military government must be con-
tinued for some time, but that it should
only be as rigorous as may be neceS-
sary to preserve order. He thinks the
Cubans are ambitious for self-goVern-
ment and anxious to avoid friction with
the American authorities. II military
control is exercised with discretion he
believes there will be little trouble.
One of the most troublesome features
of the situation is the criminal class,
and the difficulty of determining. in the
case of prisoners who are incarcerated
for political offenses and who for crime.
There has existed in Havana in the
past an oath bound organization on the
order of the Italian Mafia, known as
the Nenigo, which was a source OF ter
ror to the inhabitants. One of the few
commendabIe acts of Weyler was the
deportation of about 200 of the members
of this organization to the penal colony
of Ceuro. But fears are expressed that
these criminals may return or that the
order may be revived by some Of those
who were not deported.
General Butler describes the sanitary
condition of Havana now as a pesthOle,
filled with unmentionable filth, squalor
and restitution. The Spanish authori-
ties have, however, agreed to inaugur-
ate the work of putting the city in
sanitary condition, with the aid Of the
municipal authorities. and work to this
end is to begin at once. General Butler
paints a dark picture of the restitution
among the poorer classes, and says 1t
will probably be necessary for US to
furnish some aid to the starving
wretches.

Giles In the Pulpit.

The tenets of John Wesley and his

folk, and Giles frequently became a To-

name, is described as "a born teacher, :"
though his SMILES often dropped TO the
burlesque. On one occasion he took for
his text, The wages of sin is death, :"
and prefaced his sermon as follows:
"My fri 'nds, Brother Paul tells us
that the wages o sin is death. Now,

A Sufficient Diet.

A quart of milk, three-Guarters Of a
pound of moderately fat heef-sirloin,
for instance-and five ounces of wheat
-four, all contain about the same amount
of nutritive material, but we pay very
different prices for them, and they have
different values for nutriment. The
milk comes nearest TO being a perfect
food. 1t contains all of the different
kinds of nutritive materials that the
body needs. Bread made from the
wheat flour will support life. 1t con-
tains all the necessary ingredients for
nourishment, but not in the proportions
best adapted for ordinary use. A man
might live on beef alone, but it would
be a very one sided and imperfect diet,
but meat and bread together make the
essentials of healthy diet Such are
. the results of experience, and the ad-
vancing science of later years explains
them. This explanation takes into ac-
count not simply quantities of meat
and bread and milk and other materials
which we eat, but also the nutritive in
gradients or nutrients" which they
contain. York Ledger.

Her Splendid Hair.

When Mrs. Norton was in the heyday
Of her loveliness, very beautiful Ital

pie to meet her at dinner, among whom
was Lord Normandy, great admireI
Of pretty women. All the men were en-.
chanted with the beautiful stranger and
all the women rather jealous One of
her great beauties was a profusion of
splendid hair, dressed in innumerable
plaits. The women decided they were
not all her own. Before the evening
was over Lord Normandy expressed his
admiration of the wonderful hair and
intimated how much he should like TO
see it let down.
''Since you wish it, my lord, - said
the woman, and she forthwith unplaited
one massive coil after another, while
the other women looked on, devoured
with envy. Il am doing for you, my
lord, what do not do for every body. "
said the houri, casting up her fine eyes
at the enraptured Lord Normandy
from under her mantle of flowing locks.

did my hair"

Maiden Speeches.

Sheridan, one of the greatest of Brit
ish orators and who entered parliament
after conspicuously successful literary
career, so nearly broke down in his
maiden effort that the general verdict
pronounced upon him was that mature
never intended him for an orator.
Brougham and Canning were equally
unsuccessful, and many of the most
celebrated speakers of the present day
displayed no signs of oratory when they
appeared for the first time before the
critical assembly at st. Stephens.
Mr.. Gladstone's maiden speech, de-
livered Feb. 21, 1888, was a nervous,
hesitant and almost inaudible effort.

THE GOlCCN AGE.

There are no days like bygone days,
So thinks the senile heart,
No ways there are like ancient ways,
None now such bliss impart;
For when the vision back is cast
II sees a golden age.
That heart then sighs for all the past
And deems the action sage.
The brightest days are coming days,
Atiirms the youth in glee,
And on the future is his gaze
While present moments flee.
The golden age is yet to beam
Before his eager mind,
And thus his thoughts with luster CLEAN
As they their views unbind.
But TO the sensual epicure
The Olden age is now.
With plenty near his Joy is sure,
And pleasure crowns his brow.
Within the present days he tries
To taste the chefest good,
Asserting that the rich and wise
Are those supplied with food.
The true philosophy is found
In looking up and on
Away from sordid, earthly ground
Toward everlasting dawn.
The better life beyond US lies,
Declares the sacred page,
And those who look with faith lit eyes
Discern the golden age.
-Rev.W. II. Bancroft in Philadelphia Ledger.
