Now for John Dalzeil Of Allegheny

WASHINGTON.

On Thursday last President Mckinley
sent the Spanish treaty to the Senate
for ratification. together with all the
papers in the case. The treaty is long
and its substance is already known.
Quay's chances for succeeding him
self were discussed among Pennsyl-
vanians there, and are generally con-
sidered to be gloomy, John Dalzell was
quoted as follows:
Il have studied the conditions ut
Harrisburg carefully and without pre-
judice, "and / fail to see any chance
for the election of Quay. am firmly
convinced that his 109 votes, instead of
increasing as Quay's friends profess to
expect as a certainty, will gradually
leave him. He has developed his full
strength, and gained what he had only
by the most desperate exertions. un-
limited promises Of places in the next
State Administration, the makeup of
legislative committees and the official
and clerical roll of House and Senate
and other methods which can be en-
ployed so we'll by no other than Quay.
With all this he falls far short of the
number of votes necessary to elect, and
] cannot discover where he has any
hope for making that number good.
Charlemagne Tower of Philadelphia
has been appointed Minister to the
Court of Russia and Joseph Choate to
the Court of Great Britain.

A CLEAR, VIRILE DECISION.

Had the decision of the Supreme
Court upon the conspiracy cases of
Quay Haywood ct al been other than
that yesterday rendered, the effect upon
the public mind of Pennsylvania and
the country at large would be very de-
plorable Chief Justice Sterrett, in a
clear, virile opinion, brushes away the
last vestige of the plea that among IL
learned judges of the Conrts of Phil
adelphia these defendants could not OBJ
tain fair trial. Were there any active
animosity against Senator Quay in the
hearts of these judges, he would still
have his capable counsel to note the
slightest divergence on their part from
established judicial rulings; and he
would also haye his right of appeal af
terward, the same as is enjoyed by all
other defendants.
In another part of his opinion Chief
Justice Sterret SHOWS that the Supreme
Court could not put the cart before the
horse by hearing now the objections to
the rulings Of Judge Finletter, of which
the defendant can have full benefit if
the trial go against him, when he can
apply to the Superior Court-not to the
Supreme Cocrt, whose jurisdiction is
expressly excluded from Quarter SEES
sons appeals
Without prejudging anything here
after TO be offered in behalf of Quay
Haywood et nj, it is in place to say that
the attempt to arrest the processes OF

BUTLER COUNTY is for John Dalzell
for United States Senator; and it is not
for any man who went into the Quay
caucus.
The statesmen of this state have been
forced to take second place long enough,
by the state and city politicians; and if
Dalzell cannot make it the second
choice Of the Republicans of this coun-
ty would probably be Chas. w. Stone,
who was defeated for Congress in his
district by combination of the Quay
and Standard Oil Co. forces.

might be troubled NJ the prospect Of
having TO teach knitting, and how
many of them would be able to play

not surprise them but to have it dis
tinctly specified that the board was

of $3.50 per annum, rising $25 annually

BOVINE TUBERCULOSIS.

tThe ohio Experiment tatlon has issued
bulletin on bovine tuberculosis. Its con-
illusions are summarized as followsl
The disease is caused by the growth
within the animal tissues of vegetable
organism, bacillus tuberculosis.
tuberculosis is produced in the lower
animals by incubation with ubercu-
lous material from human subjects.
tuberculosis has been produced in
man 10y NEGOTIATIONS with the tubercu-
lous material from human subjects.
The bacterium of bovine tuberculosis
has not been specifically differentiated
from that producing tuberculosis i'm the
human subject.
The development Of tuberculosis i'm
human subjects has followed i'm $50 many
cases upon the Use OF the meat or mill,
of tuberculous cattle that there is no
room TO doubt that the disease IS trans
mitted from cattle to- man i'm This man
Nor.
In view OF the experience Of other
states IT would seem that The rational
method Of eytirpa.nQ bovine tphcrcu-
losis lies not i'm the wholesale and immc-
diate testing os al the cattle in the state
and the slaughter of all reactirg ami
mails, but in such municipal action as
will control the sale Of both milk and
meat within municipal limits.
That tuberculosis is a germ disease.
caused as surely by infection or con-
tagiou as are smallpox and measles. is
confirmed not only by the iurumcrahle
cases IN which it les spread through
herds rom :'ugle Infected animals, but
also ly the Fact that Uarv herds . cat
lie remain excerpt from Il, and this fact
demonstrates the possibility Of entire
eradication Of the discnse.
