German embassy, of being the prime
mover in the present Dreyfus crisis, and
asks if war is the object sought by him
and his instlgators. He says he does
not think that they want war, but in

the prearranged candidate of Mr..

QUAY HELD FOR TRIAL.-SeDatol
Quay was placed under 5000 bail in
the Central Police Court. in Philadel-
phia, yesterday evening, for trial at the
November term of the criminal court
on the charge of conspiracy to make
unlawful use of the funds Of the Peo-
ple's Bank and of State money deposit
ed therein. Richard r. Quay, the
Senator's son, and Charles II. Mckee,
of Pittsburg. were held in the same
bail for trial on the same charge.
There was some sensational evidence
during the trial. Twenty-Five letters,
written by the Pennsylvania republi.
can leader to John S. Hopkins, the late
cashier OF the Peoples Bank, who shot
himself, were offered by the prosecu-
ton. 4 private memorandum book OF
Hopkins's figured also in the case.
A hard fight was made to keep this
book from being introduced in court.
The entries in Hopkins's book were
shown in which Senator Quay's name
appears. One of the charges against
the Senator is that of using public
moneys deposited in the defunct Peo'
pies Bank.
Senator Quay says: mot single
share of stock was ever bought for me
with public money, and my letters,
which were offered in evidence. clearly
show this. Nor did ever have the
use or benefit to the extent of one
penny cf any of the States money on
deposit at the Peoples Bank"
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. Gall OF the
out of town principals in yesterday :
drama have left the city, but the friends
of Senator Quay declare that in a short
time some startling news will be re-
ceived. Nobody could be found who is
sufficiently in the confidence of the Sen
ator to know exactly what he intends
10 do to counteract the effect of the dis
closures made at yesterdays hearing.
One of the stories being circulated is
that messenger had started west to
meet State Treasurer Haywood, who is
ON his wsv to the city for tie purpose
of delivering a copy of the testimony
taken Yesterday. Haywood will be in
Pittsburg by Saturday, and it is said
that he will meet the Senator before
reaching here.
There was conference between Ma
gee and Quay last night. 1t is said that
the differences between them have been
fixed up, and Magee is quoted as saying
that Ouav would come out on top when
the case came to trial.

The London Daily Mail says
"When Admiral Dewey's guns opened
or Manila, the scales of the Monroe
doctrine may be said to have fallen
from the eyes of the American people, u
Why, certainly they did, for it's q bad
rule that won't work both ways, and if
the Monroe doctrine should keep the
eastern out OF the western hemisphere,
of course it should keep the western out
of the eastern. Nothing, however, is
better known than the fact that Presi-

called doctrine could possibly be con-
strued to mean what the jingoes say it
