eral admissions which, it is contended
shook the witnesses original testimony.
The purpose of the questions asked
by Mr.. Shields was to show first, that
two years before the Indictment was
found against Quay for conspiracy to
use unlawfully State funds deposited
In the Peoples Bank, the bank was in
hebted to Quay; second, that during
these two years the statutory period,
Quay was not "A borrower from the
bank, and that he had carried on his
stock transactions with his own mon
ey; third, that it could not be shown
that any interest on State funds was
paid to Quay or that any State money
was set aside for his use
In regard to the first point the wit
ness admitted that if Quay had been
entitled to the proceeds of a sale of
u. g. L. stock on Nov. 8, 1896, and that
if certain item OF $500 could be
proved to be an obligation of Richard
Il. Quay's. then the bank was indebt-
ed for about 81 200 to Nj. S. Quay at
the beginning of the statutory period
AS to the second point the most inn
portant admission made by the wit
ness was that the bank never paid
out any money in response to the re-
quest in the plum tree" telegram
which asked Hopkins to buy and car
ry 1000 Met" The expert said that
$4,000 was paid on Mr.. Quay's person
al account on the date that the mes
sage was sent. but he admitted also
that Quay had deposited $4,000 in
the bank on that day. and that at the
close of the day he had balance to
his credit of S6l,S
Goldsmith said that there was moth
ing in any book which said in so
many words that 100000 was set
aside for Quay, and that for the period
in question there was nothing on the
banks books to show that Quay ever
received any interest on State funds.
Mr.. Rothermel. referring to paper
which the witness said had helped him
in ascertaining to what persons the
initial in the call loan book belonged.
said: This paper has been identified
as in the handwriting of John S. Hop
kins. | offer 1t in evidence as an act
in furtherance of conspiracy 1t con-
tains part of calculations TO raise
the fund from the interest payments
of call loan borrowers to pay the in
terest on the State deposits" The
Judge admitted 1t.
No Successor to QUAY.
Harrisburg, Pa. April 2O.-The last
full day Of the present session of the
Legislature opened glorionsly. On
the surface all was lovely. but there
was deep resentment in the hearts of
many who We're outwardly calm. The
failure to elect Quay's successor is a
bitter disappointment to those who
have thought for ten days that some
such friction of their labors would be
brought about.
There is still talk Of an extra session
but 1t will probably end in talk.
Among many Of the Anti-Q Quay Repub-
leans, however, there is no disposition
to listen TO suggestions of party policy
and party danger Every inch OF
ground is to be bitterly contested.
Quay men defy their opponents They
declare that the coming State Conven-
ton will be absolutely in their control
and as one-sided as the handle OF a
Jug.
The joint ballot, the last one to be
taken at this session, resulted: Quay,

ut is significant that while Mr.. Lind
has made great splurge over increas-
ing the assessed value of the Lowry
street car system, adding about $3.50
to the states Golfers, he vetoed the bill
that would have increased the rail-
road gross earnings tax, adding $500, :
600 to the states income and the ST..

Mr.. Hill, apologized for him. ALEX
andria Post News.
Here are two falsehoods, Lind has
made no splurge over increasing the
assessed value of the street car sy stem,
although hewas instrumental in doing
so.
Second, he never vetoed any bill to
increase taxes on railroads or rail-
road earnings for the reason that the
republican legislature passed no such
bill. That "adding 100000 to the
states iucome," is pure fiction with
out even syllable of truth in it.
And why is it that papers claiming
to be truthful and intelligent will copy
and retail such abominable lies and,
in some cases, even endorse them by
libelous comments?-Was eca County

AS matters grew from bad to worse
the anti-saloon people began to realize
that unless something was done to
check the arrogant sway of the sa-
loon men, the cause ofno-license would
suffer at the next village election.
That which would have been a CON-
paratlvely easy matter with an admin
istration thoroughly in sympathy
with the cause, became an exceedingly
difficult matter when the work was to
be done without any assistance from
that source. Evidence was secured,
however, and the raid which took
place. last Friday night was organized
and successfully carried out. THERE
publican' officers of course feel sore
that outside officers were used in the
execution Of the plan for the raid, but

is nothing that has prevented them
from doing the same thing any time
they chose to do SO, unless indeed, it
was a consideration for the feelings
of the law-breakers.

One of the things that seems to be

In other words, if the fee for inspec.

Thus, at the beginning of the village
year the situation was this. The sa-
looms were outlawed, and "repub-
lican" administration was in charge,
pledged to ''rigid enforcement of the
law" Now there was a good oppor-
tunity to test the sincerity of the prom
ises of this administration, who stood
so squarely on the platform written by
tone of the most earnest workers in
the cause of temperance in the city. -
What has it done in the way of law
enforcement? Does anyone believe
that the officers could possibly have
lodged the VIGOROUSLY open outlaw
saloons for six months without having
obtained some evidence upon which to
make an arrest, had they wished to Sc
cure any? Not one sincere attempt
has been made by the administration
to suppress the evil, at least none has
come to our knowledge. 1t is true,
some members of the council may have
had misgivings as to the outcome, but
they contented themselves with won
dering why the anti-saloon people did
not do something, as if the anti.saloon
people were responsible for the condi.
tion of affairs. No, the so-called re.
publican administration was and is
responsible for the long continued and
fragrant violations Of the law. The
fact that the anti-saloon league has
begun prosecutions does not relieve
the administration Of their responsi.

Thus far subscriptions have been
secured to the amount of s266.00
for a year, payable monthly in
amounts of fifty cents and one
dollar. The increased member
ship Of five beyond the originaI
estimate will raise the cost of in.
struments to about $4,000, of
which one fourth down, $1,000,
will be required as a cash payment
before the instruments can be Sc.
cured. The amount subscribed
will provide only about 500 per
month on the payments, and $36
will be required to meet them.
The Eagle hopes that the amount
necessary may be raised at once so
that the instruments may be secur-
ed. The determination and zeal
shown by the members Of the band
in overcoming all obstacles is
deserving Of substantial encourage
ment, aside from the benefit such
band as this one will prove to be
