Quay Ia Acauitted.

Philadelphia, April 2l.-Matthew s
Quay was today declared by the jury to
be not guilty OF the charge of conspiracy
to use for his own unlawful gain and
profit the funds of the state deposited in
the Peoples bank of this city.
The court officers were unable to keen
back the struggling chowd that pressed
forward to congratulate Quay when the
verdict of the jury was announced. As
soon as Quay could get away from those
anxious to shake his hand and congratu.
late him, he made his way to the elevator
to descend to the street from the sixth
floor of the municipal building.
Here the scenes in the court room were
repeated. AS the senator emerged from
the door of the building the enthusiasm
was intense. A group of enthusiasts
rushed forward and attempted to hoist
him on their shoulders, but the senator
waved them back, saying:
"Oh, no; oh, no; Pm too old a man for
that"
Quay walked with his friends down
Broad street to the office of his counsel,
where he made his escape from the surging
crowd.

GREAT MONOPOLY ON COPPER
&c Has Complete Control OF Four Hun
dred MilliOns-Scheme Completed by
Rothchilds and Sta dsrd OIL Comfy
Will Dictste Prices-Other Trusts.

Chicago, April 24.-Defnite information
reached Chicago that the contracts had
been signed in London on Friday which
formally transferred to single organiza'
ton practically all of the large producing
copper mines in the United States. The
details were meager, and came through the
brokers who had handled minor parts OF
the deal in this city. 1t is understood
that the mines under contract produced
about 425,000,0OO pounds fine of the toral
output of 583,00O,OOO pounds fine that
We're mined in this country last year.
These mines, it is claimed, will produce
fully 475,000,000 pounds fine of the out
put of 6OO,000,O00 pounds fine estimated
for 1899.
According to estimates made directly
after the negotiation for the big produc-
ers became public property the actual
value of the mining properties taken over
will exceed $4OO,OOO,OOO. The particu-
lars, however, will probably be made pub
lie during the coming week, and the
formal life of the company will date from
May l.
International Trust.
In effect, the organization is an in
ternational trust in copper. The organic
alton will protect the price both in Eu-
rope and America, and give to the COM
pany power to distribute the output intel
ligently and economically to the markets
where it is most in demand. It was the
latter consideration which brought into
the combination some of the interests that
were previously antagonistic. The Roths-
childs furnished the funds and made the
stipIlations for the European interests in
volved, while the Standard Oil Company
was credited with acting in the same ca
pacity for the American side. The Roths-
child interest had its main leverage in it's
holdings on the Isle Royal, in Lake Super
ior, known as the Wendigo Copper Com
pany, the stock of which concern is not
listed on any American exchange, ana the
Island Royal Land Company, limited.
Among the other properties named yes.

The blood is the vital element in our lives
consequently 1t must be kept pure, rich and
red in order to have perfect health. The
cause of Mr.. Sa!m's sickness was impure and
impoverished blood. He had skilled medi.
cal treatment and used many remedies. but
derived no benefit until he commenced to
take DIR. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People
and these cured him.
This proves that this remedy is the best
means ofimparting those elements that purify,
yitalize and enrich the blood, thus aiding
bodily functions and arousing every organ
into healthfnl action and in this way restor.

That is the reason why DR.. Williams Pinb

why doctors prescribe them, why druggists

terry. The deceased was born in the
city OF New York in 1886, hence wa:
about 63 years of age. His parents
moved to Elkhart, Indiana, when he
was about one year old, that being his
residence until he came to Howard
county in 1857. He was graduate Of
Ontario academy at Ontario, Indiana,
and of Michigan University at Ann

bought and located on the farm now
owned by John E jackson, adjoining
Cresco on the southeast, where he
continued TO reside until 1864, when
he was elected Clerk of the courts
He was afterwards a member of the
Board of Supervisors. In 1869 he
came to Cresco and became member
OF the banking house of Kimball e.
Farnsworth. In 1877 Mr.. Kimball was
elected to the state Senate from the
senatorial district composed of How
ard, Chickasaw and Bremen counties.
In that body he was on the ways and
means and retrenchment committee,
that committee having the credit of a
reduction of state expenses of $780,
600 per annum. At the second session
he was chairman of the committee for
the suppression OF intemperance, and

to his children, with whom in their
sorrowful bereavement, they have the
sympathy Of all their old friends and
