Single Ballot Settles the Fate OF
the Pennsylvania
Senator.
BIB TO 81 THE FINAL VOTE.
Two Senators Among
Those Who Oppose the Admis-
sion Of the Former Scion.

Matthew S. Quay was refused
seat ia the United States senate
Tuesday, on the appointment of the
governor of Pennsylvania, by the
vote of thirty-three to thirty-two.
The entire time of the senate
Tuesday was devoted to debate upon
the question, many OF the greatest
lawyers and orators in the body de-
livering speeches. The galleries
were thronged with multitudes,
while other multitudes were unable
to gain admission On the floor OF
the senate was every member of that
body now in Washington, together
with scores of members Of the house
OF representatives.
As the big clock opposite the presl-
dent pro lempore indicated the hour
of four there was a hush in the
chamber. Senator Frye, in the chair,
announced that the hour for the
final vote had arrived and that the
question was the pending motion Of
Senator Chandler to strike out Of
the resolution declaring Quay not 10
be entitled to seat the word mot. .
The first sensation was caused by
the failure OF Senator Pettigrew OF
South Dakota, to answer to his
name, although he was in his seat.
When Senator Vests name was
called he voted mo" in clear,
distinct voice, thus dashing the last
hope of the friends of Quay, who ex-
pected confidently that the dis
tinguished Missourian would vote
for his long time, personal friend.
In perfect silence it was announc-
ed that the senate had denied to
Quay the scat which he had sought
for some months past.

RUSSIA'S ANSWER.
1t Agrees with the Anglo German Alliance
Prineinlas.

st. Petersburg, Nov. 6.-The text of
the Russian reply to the Anglo German
agreement note is published. The first
point, providing for open ports on the
rivers of the Chinese littoral is favora-
bly, received, as it does not alter the ex-
listing treaties. The second point is all
the more in harmony with Russia's in
tention, as the integrity of the Celestial
empire is the fundamental principle of
the Russian policy. AS regards to the
possibility of the violation of this prin-
ciple in the third article Russia refers
to her note of May 20, and repeats her
declaration that such violation would
compel Russia to modify, as circum-
stances might require, the attitude she
has taken.
