THE news from Paris indicates that

Desperate Efforts have apparently been
made at Madri to induce some Enropean

beggared Spanish monarchy. ;, ,
These have failed now, as they failed
in the beginning Of the war.
Nothing remains for Spain but to
agree to the terms which the American
Commissioners have demanded.
Buer as this course must seem to
Spanish pride, it is obviously dictated by
every consideration OF prudence.
With a navy consisting OF battered
hulks and unfinished vessels still on the
stoc,s, an army unpaid and semi
mutinous, an empty treasury and shat
tered credit, it would have been insane
folly for the Madrid Ministry to invite
further hos iities.

Argument Of Counsel.

NouA
Special to THE sun
PurLADELpri1A, Nov. 2S.--The con.
spiracy case against United States seha-
tor NJ. s. Quay came up in the Court Of
Quarter Sessions, this city, today in
Room GAG, and was argued for nearly
three hours before Judge Finletter. None
of the defendants was present during
the argument. Demurrers were hle1 oy
the defense to four of the five iHd'ct-
ments, and motion to qnash the NTH
was made. The latter was on the IN
dictmen, in which the Haywood letter
to the Peoples Bank figured, notifying
the bank that he would, as State Treas.
urer, deposit 100000. and that Richard
R. QUAY was to borrow $780, 600 from the
bank.
Rufus Z. Shapley spoke an honr and a
half in opening for the defence. DIS
trict Attorney Graham addressed the
court for an hour for the prosecution IN
reply and A. S. L. Shields spoke for
nearly twenty minutes. Court was at
|. 10 D. NJ. adjourned until 10 o'cl'~k to-
morrow morning, Judge Finletter re-
ewing his decision. The court may
make its decision known tomorrow. ii
the decision IS announced and is against
the defendants, they will be arfaigned l'
make their plea and the date OF trial def
nitely fixed.
The chief point in the argument fol
the defence appeared to be that whei
State money was deposited in bank il
ceased to be State money and became the
personal property Of the bank. 1t was
admitted that the funds were dep"slttc
in the Peoples Bank as alleged, but Il
was contended that if burglar hae
stolen that nuney he would have taktl
the banks nancy and not that OF th'
State This smile was used to prove
Ina, il the defendants borrowed TIT
money they secured the banks none.
