peculiar glory You would think from
some recent utterances that some people
were of the opinion that if the American
soldier is to be respected in the world
hereafter, he must be half a savage and
half beast, fighting to impose his do
minion upon unwilling peoples and sub
ject races. and that in that way only the
sons of the Pilgrims, and the men Of the
Revolution, are to become world
power. The men or the nations who
fight for freedom or justice, who fight
for the great doctrines of the opening
sentences of our declaration of indepen
dence, are the men and the nations that
live in the grateful memory of mankind,
and not the men or the nations who fight
for dominion or empire. We should as
soon have thought, three years ago, of
asking the Savior of mankind to come
down from the mount and take service
under Il Roman centurian, or go into the
employ of Tiberius in order not to be
isolated, as to have asked the American
people to descend from it's lofty height
to engage i'm the diplomatic quarrels of
Europe, or the scuflles for empire in Asia
Mr. President, for one do not believe
that the temper and character of the
American people has changed in 12-
month. / believe that the principles of
the constitution and the principles of the
declaration, that the doctrine on which
the Revolution was fought and won, are
still dear to the heart of the American
people,"
Hannis Taylor then spoke on The
Fathers Of the Revolution as Standards
for Imitation" His remarks were as
follows:

curate understanding of what has been
and may be the legitimate bounds of
our expansion in this hemisphere, with

EVIDENCE ALL IN.
Prosecution Rests in Quay Con.
spiracy Case.

Philadelphia, April 20.-The prosecu-
tion in the trial of eN-Unlted States Ser a.
tor Quay for alleged conspiracy clos, u
its case yesterday. The general opinion
had been that the trial would drag
through many more days. The end came
at > o'clock, and after Il brief consulta-
tion among counsel for the defense and
Judge Biddle, the latter adjourned court
until today in order that Mr.. Quay's
lawyers might have time to consider
what steps they should take with respect
to the presentation of their side.
1t was stated that the question of en-
tering deniurrers to the prosecutions
evidence or proceeding with the taking
of testimony would be decided by the
defence's counsel at once. From the
evidence already presented 1t is ap-
| parent that the commonwealth depends
largely for conviction on the testimony
of its expert, Meyer Goldsmith as to
! his interpretations of the accounts in
the red book and other books of the
Peoples bank. and upon the jury's opih-
ion of the books, papers. letters, tele-
grams and checks offered in evidence.
AS to what extent the testimony of the
defenses expert should he be called,
| may offset MIR. Goldsmiths testimony
! remains to be seen. The contention OF
/ the defense in argument and crOss-eX-
/ animation has been that the calculations
| of Mr.. Goldsmith are not borne out by
the books, but. on the other hand, show
! that Mr.. Quay did not use state money
nor receive interest on state deposits
and that whatever loans he received
/ lpnIa in tho
and backed by sufficient collateral.
The dry routine of figures and involved
explanations of accounts took up most
of yesterday. Mr. Goldsmths cross
examination was concluded. and re-
direct examination was begun by Mr.
NOthermel. The points brought out by
him We're that the cash account and
interest account of the bank were de-
| tiCient by the omission of certain sums
received as interest; that it was GUS
tomary to designate call loans by initials
instead of names. Upon the question
of Mr.. Quay's balances in the deposit
account from May, 1886, to Octohcr, 1897,
Mr.. Goldsmith said
I'm 1896, on June 23. the balance was
$3.50: on Nov. "a, $2,171766; on Nov. %,
again $2.56; in 1897. on Jan. T. so cents; J.;
on Oct. 26, $l0.000.50; and ON Oct. q, 50
cents. at which it remained till the end
of the month. Those are all the varia-
tions from April 80 1896, to Oct. 81, 1897. -
Director of the Mint Henry X. Boyer
was on the stand, and. after testifying
to paying interest in October. 1897. on a
call loan, asked permission to make a
statement in reply to the district at
| torney's allegations. in the course of
testimony, that he received interest on
state money y while state treasurer, from
May. 1889, to May. 1891. His request was
not allowed. but the court stated that all
records of replies to these questions We're
stricken out under the courts ruling.

1T is an important purpose of your
society, as | understand it, to gather and
preserve the history of the Revolutions
ary time. The war of the Revolution
was no vulgar contest for empire OF for
glory. 1t was not even a contest for
liberty alone. Our fathers fought for
two things:

for themselves and their children, and
