Quay IS DENIED A SEAT

The United States senate has decided
that Mathew S. Quay, of Pennsylvania,
rs not entitled to seat in that body as
one of the senators from the keystone
state, but the question of the constitu-
tional power of the governor of a state
to appoint United States senator is stiA
undecided A change in the personnel Of
the senate or of the appointee might at
any time result in reversal of the de-
cision reached in the QUAY case and
nothing short of a constitutional
amendment will finally settle the
question. To the United States senate.
as with most, if not all legislative bodies
Is conceded the right to pass upon the
qualifications of its members. Section 3
of the Constitution of the United States
provides that 'ff vacancies Tin the sem
ate) happen by resignation, or otherwise.
during the recess of the legislature Of
any state, the executive thereof NAV
make temporary appointments until the
next meeting of the legislature which
shall then fill such vacancies"
If a state legislature fails to elect a
United States senator it might reason
ably be construed that the words .sor
otherwise" would cover the point and give
the governor power to appoint a senator
who should hold Office until the next
meeting Of the state legislature, but in
the Quay case the United States senate
denies this power of appointment to gov
ernors, and declares that under the cir
cumstances, Gov. Stone, of Pennsylvania.
has not the power to appoint M. S. QUAY
as senator.
There is very little doubt that had some
other person than Mr.. Quay been the an.
pointee, he would have been seated. The
strong aversion to Mr. Quay and his DO
litical methods undoubtedly created a
personal prejudice against seating him,
and this prejudice influenced the votes
: of some senators when they finally passed
upon the matter, to such an extent as
to outweigh the constitutional aspect OF
the case.
Ahe'e Is no sympathy being wasted on
Mr. Quay. He is the victim of his own
peculiar political methods just as much
as the would-be Congressman Roberts, Of
Utah, was the victim of his polysamcus
affiliations. But apart from any preroga-
tive which the United States senate may
claim or enjoy as to the qualifications Of
its members is the question of the con-
sttutional right of the governors of
states to appoint. If the constitution
gives them the appointive power when
'vaeareies happen by resignation or
otherwise" the ordinary lay mind can
not conceive of any seIf-created pre-

ARGUMENT IN OLD CASE.
Litigation Over Railroad Bonds
Pledged Long Ago.

Pittsburg, Feb. 15.-An argument was
made today in common pleas court No,
3 on the demurrer filed in the equity
suit of Simon p. Kase against NJ. Bell,
administrator of the estate of Thomp.
son Bell. who was in the banking busi-
ness In Pittsburg some years ago. The
suit is to recover for $4,000 worth OF
railroad bonds pledged with the late
Thompson Bell to secure loans made by
him to the plaintiff, and the income
from the bonds amounting to SS5. 900.
Mrs. Carrie b. Killgore, of Philadel-
phia, made the argument for the plain
tiff. The plaintiff in the case is over
so years of age. He was in the court.
He lives in PHILADELPHIA and the
cause of action arose many years ago.
In one way or another it has been
before the courts for a long time
and this suit was brought after Kase
got a favorable decision in the supreme
court in case connected with It.
kase was a railroad contractor and
while he was building a railroad from
Wilkes Barre to Danville he borrowed
money from Thompson Bell. He claims
that the railroad bonds he pledged
We're used against the interest, and
though he paid back the money he bor-
rowed he never got possession of them
again. He sues to recover the value OF
the bonds and the income from them
for long term of years.
