tions and May Be Reported
For Contempt.

PHILADELPHIA, April 1s.-The second
week Of the trial of ex-Unlted States
Senator Quay on the charge of on
spiracy began with the commemorative
expert accountant, Meyer Goldsmith,
on the stand.
A decision regarding the testimony of
this witness will lengthen the trial
materially, the decision making a
physical examination of each entry in
question necessary. The district at
torney sought to have the expert wit
ness testify as to what he had found in
his examination Of the banks books.
Answers of Witness Goldsmith to
questions by the prosecuting attorney
were to the effect that Mr.. Quay had
been a large borrower from the bank,
but that, according to the banks books,
he had never paid a cent Of interest to
the bank. During one six months
period Mr.. Quay had borrowed nearly a
quarter of a million dollars.
Mr.. Shields in an earnest speech chal-
lenged the commonwealth in the inter
est of public justice, to prove one single
transaction testified to by the witness.
This matter goes to the public, and
does immense harm to innocent men,"

LOOSE INSPECTION.
Legislative Grain Investigating Com nit.
tee Makes Its Report.

"c AsCpoASs
ST. PAUL, April lS.-The joint senate
and house committee appointed Jan. 3
to investigate charges of corruption and
favoritism in the grain inspection de-
partment has submitted its report to
both houses.
The committee finds the following
from the evidence produced:
/. That the grading of wheat has
no been uniform: that prior to the
month of October. the new crop of
wheat had not been graded solely on its
merits, it being the policy Of the in
spection department to give lower
grades than later.
=. That the system Of appeal from
the inspectors decition is impracticable
and Of little benefit.
). That 1t appears that some Of the
inspectors have been incompetent or
careless.
4. That the weighing Of the grain at
the terminals is carried on in a loose
tanner.
). That the farmers suffer a heavy
loss by shipping uncleaned wheat, and
by loading wheat into dirty and unswept
cars.
No reasons have been produced by
the department Of inspection in the tes-
timony taken before your committee,
to convince this committee that the
system in vogue in the department can
result in anything but a dead loss to the
producer and must necessarily be to the
advantage Of the buyer.

CAUGHT MAI. ROBBERS.

A Couple Who Are Relieved to Have
Done Many Jobs.
New YORK. April 1S.-The police have
in custody two alleged robbers of mail
pouches, said to be notorious. The last
crime charged to the men is the theft of
a registered mail pouch at Buffalo early
this month. The men give their names
as Albert E. Bell. of London, Canada,
and Frank NJ. Smith, of Chicago. They
will probably be handed over to the
Buffalo authorities.
On Saturday Smith bought a pair of
diamond earrings for 1915, in a jewelry
store here, giving in payment a draft
for $425.6l on the First National bank,
of Waverly, N. Y. After buying he said
he would call later and get the change.
The jewelry firm discovered that the
draft had been stolen on the 7th or sth
of this month. at Buffalo. Smith and
his companion were arrested. In their
trunk was found the full uniform of a
letter carrier and the proceeds Of a mail
pouch robbery at Buffalo. Checks and
drafts to the amount of $40, 900 were
found also. The police say that Bell
was also nee arrested in Kansas City
for a mail pouch robbery, and served
three years. Smith is said to be a Chi
cago crook, who has ''done time in
Missouri.

WASHINGTON. April 1s.-The story
printed that the resignation Of John
Addison Porter, secretary to the presi-
dent, was now in the hands Of Mr.. Nc
Kinley to take effect at the latter's con-
venience, is officially denied at the
White House.
While the resignation has not been
rendered, it would surprise no one here
if Mr.. Porter should relinquish his post
at any time. He broke down under the
strain of the arduous duty he has per-
formed since the advent of the present
administration. and for over three
weeks has been confined to his house in
this city by nervous prostration. The
general belief is that Assistant Secretary
Cortelyou will succeed him if he should
retire.

UPRISING OF THE YAQUlS
Authoritative Statement That Women
and Children Have Been Slaughtered.
MANY AMERICANS ALSO VICTIMS
Four Thousand Warriors Are
Well Armed.
GENERAL TORRES WILL Be REINFORCED

Ell Paso. Tex, Aug. 5.-A dispatch
from Hermosillo, Mex, the head
quarters Ut the Mexican army operating
against the Yaquis, says:
The Mexican government antici-
pated the Indian outbreak, and had
been making heavy shipments Of war
material into the State of Sonora for
two months On the other hand, the
Yaquis had been preparing for the
conflict for two years.
''Gen. Torres, commandant of the
military zone, was not killed, as re-
ported, but wounded In the thigh, and
is now very low.
7" The government will place 10000
men in tho field, il necessary. The
rebelious Yaquis now number 1000
well armed warriors.
Sixty Indians were killed in the
fight last Friday, and twice that number
wounded.
1.-The telegraph wires between Vican
and Potan have been cut by the rebels,
and the troops are without communi-
cation at headquarters.
at is authoritatively reported that
the Indians have slaughtered both
women and children, and that many
American prospeotors in the mountain
region have been slaughtered. !"
Chicago, ILL.,, Aug. ga special
from the City of Mexico to the Tribune
says:
1.-The rebel Yaquis forces are now
thought to have been swelled to 5000
or 1000 men. Their temporary success
has encouraged Indians from along the
'Yaqui River to flock to their strong
hold. in the mountains.
1.-THE government has decided to re-
inforce Gen. Lorenzo Torres, and the
Seventeenth Infantry sailed yesterday
from Mazatlan, on the government
transport Oaxaca, for the mouth of the
Yaqui River, leaving Mazatlan entirely
without a garrison. Gen. Torres now
has his forces, consisting of the Fifth
Cavalry and the Eleventh and Twelfth
Infantry, modified in tho Yaqui
Valley, and probably will not attempt
a forward movement until he receives
his reinforcements. A regiment from
the interior is also being sent to him.
