Mr.. Quay as a senator from Pennsylvania

The Stars report closed Mr.. Stewart and
Mr.. Daniel spoke in behalf of Quay, and
Mr.. Turner briefly explained his reason
for voting against Quay. Mr. Daniels
speech was earnest argument and i'm
passioned appeal for what he held to be
justice to Quay
The vote taken promptly at
o'clock. 1t was followed with almost
breathless anxiety, there being doubt of
the result almost until the close of the
roll call. The failure of Mr.. Pettigrew to
vote and Mr. Vests voting against Quay
vania claimant. Both had been counted
to vote for Quay. Though Vest had
always taken view of the Constitution
contrary to the claims set up for Quay, it
was known that his sympathy was with
Quay on account of the very close friend
ship existing between them. There was
something tragic in the struggle between
conviction and friendship in the matter Of
been believed that he would ever vote
against Quay. but had been supposed that
he would not vote at all.
Refused to Strike Ont "Not."
The vote was first on the proposition of
Mr.. Chandler in the interest of Quay to
strike out the word mot in the resolution
declaring Quay not entitled to a seat in
the Senate. This failed by vote of 33 20
80.
The vote was then taken on the unamend-
ed resolution declaring Quay mot entitled
the seat This adopted Dy the
same vote as that by which the amend
ment was defeated.
The result was contributed to by the alb
sence. without pairs, of Aldrch and Bev-
eridge, the failure of Pettigrew to vote and
| Mr. Hanna's unexpected action in pairing
against Quay.

REBELS ARE SMUGGLING IN RIFLES
Movement of "Boxers Indicates
General Revolt is Imminent.
TROOPS MAY HAVE TO LAND

CHICAGO. April 25.-A special to the
Record from Victoria, B. c., says:
According to news received here by the
Empress of China great preparations are
being made by the rebels of China for big
revolution. A Macao correspondent says
there is not the slightest doubt that the
near future will see a vast army of the
rebels rising in the interior. During the
four months of the present year no less
than 10000 Mauser rifles and a great guam
tity of ammunition and other war material
was taken inland from that port and col
ony. On March IS a German steamer ar
rived there with cases of what purported
to be merchandise. but which held 5000
rifles and large stock of powder and am
muniton. The captain of the steamer said
these arms had ali been sold to the people
OF inland China
A correspondent of the North China Daily
News in Shantung says the movement Of
the Boxers continues to grow. In many
places there are camps of Chinese drilling
with more or less publicity, with the firm
expectation that in the not long distant
future there is to be a general uprising.
The rebellion in Shantung is growing to an
alarming extent 1t is even said by some
correspondents that the revolutionistS have
reached the neigaborhood of Tien-tsin, so
that should the attempt to enter that set
tlcment the foreign troops will have to land
to protect life and property.

The injured persons were burned about
the face and hands while making their es-
cape.
None Seriously Injured.
None of them is seriously injured. The
house in which the fire occurred is a typi-
cal East Side tenement, four families liv-
ing on a floor The smoke had already
awakened the tenants by the time the po-
licemen who had discovered the fire en-
tered the hallway. and the fire escape on
the front of the building was soon crowded
with partly dressed men, women and chill
dren. The policemen tried to get upstairs
through the hallway, but the smoke was
so dense that they were driven back:
Standing on the top of the iron rail in
front of the house a policeman aided the
people in getting down by that way.
On the fourth floor lived the family of
Joseph Port. Two of the children-Sarah,
sixteen years old, and Bertha, twelve
made their way down the rear fire escape
to the first balcony, and then dropped
twelve feet into the yard, where they were
imprisoned until the fence was broken
down by the firemen and they were lib
Grated.
Tried to Save the Children.
Liebowitz who is a mattress maker, lived
on the top floor with his wife Fannie,
eight children and his wife's mother, Re
becca Solomon. Their apartments were
already filed with smoke. LebowftZ seized
his daughter Dora and tried to get down
the stairway, but the flames drove him
back burning him and child. He managed
to make his way out through window
over a plank to the roof of the adjoining
building Mrs. LiebowitZ followed with
Lizzie, child eight months old. Close be-
hind her was her daughter Celia. seven
teen years old. and her son Nathan, fif-
teen, who was carrying his nine-year-o!d
sister Fannie. The children who lost their
lives were overcome by the smoke before
they could reach the window
When the firemen succeeded in getting
irto the top floor they found the bodies of
the children. All had been suffocated. but

PEOPLE WHO, UNDER ENGLISH LAW,
MAY LAUGH AT THE POLICE.

Great Britain Who Cannot BE Ar

Course, 10 First on the List.
England county court warrant for
the arrest and committal Of a solicitor
had to be extended for four months
more, as, though the solicitor was
walking about the streets in the sight
of the police, they dared not lay fin
ger on him. Even the judge seemed
surprised that the man could not be
arrested But it is probable he never
will be arrested for, as he carries a
charm on his person in the form of a
brief, his body cannot be seized. This
is because no one engaged on business
al law court can be arrested for any
breach of the civil law. If you happen
to owe a debt, ito have a judgment de-
livered against you and to be commit
ted to prison for not paying, Of course
you can be arrested under ordinary
circumstances, but if you are sub
p9naed as a witness you cannot be
arrested while going to the place,
while staying there to give evidence
or while returning home, and you may
feel sure that the courts will stick up
for you.
There are many other people who
can laugh at the police. OF course no
member of the royal family can be
| arrested under any circumstances.
Servants Of the royal household also
have great privileges in this way.
Should one of the royal servants COM
nit crime at the command Of the
crown he could not be arrested. AS the
crown can do no wrong, of course any
order the crown Should give would be
considered right, and Bobby would not
dare to make an arrest.
Then members of parliament, though
they can be arrested for some things,
are exempt in certain cases where or
binary citizens would certainly be run
in If member of the house Of COM
mons commits crime, he can be ar
rested like any other citizen, but if it is
case Of contempt of court, such as
not paying debts, he can snap his fin
gers at the police during the greater
part of the year-that is to say, he can
not be arrested while parliament is sit
ting nor for 40 days before and 40 days
after the session. This gives him eX-
emption during about nine-tenths of
the year.
OF course peer enjoys the same
good fortune, and so does a peerless in
her own right. But in their case the
privilege is still greater, for they can
not be arrested on civil process at
any time, whether parliament is sit
ting or not. In fact, if the heir to a
peerage happens to be in prison for any
J, affense not criminal, he is liberated the

Foreign ambassadors may commit
any offense from drunkenness up to
murder, without running the slightest
risk Of seeing the inside of an English
prison. And not only have the embas-
sailors themselves this privilege, but
their secretaries, coachmen, cooks,
Wallets. ETC.. are equally favored indi-
viduals, for the theory is that an en-
bassador is useless without his dinner
his drives, his shaves and the like.
When an ambassador commits a
crime, all that can be done is to ask
his government to recall him. But, Of
course, if he went about the streets
knocking many people down he would
certainly be arrested and held tempo
rariIy But he could not be tried and
punished. The foreign ambassadors

upon as if they were in their own coun-

house or arrest any of the inhabitants.

suit, issued warrant for their arrest
and committal. no policeman dare exc
cute it unless the amount We're over
$50. Navy men enjoy the same privi-
leges, but no doubt they seldom get
the opportunity of exercising them.
The clergy are another class Of men
who are sometimes secure against ar
rest. A clergyman cannot be arrested
| when he is celebrating divine service
or conducting the celebration of rites
| for the dead; nor can he be touched
when going to or returning from either
of these duties. Any one breaking the
law in this respect might be punished
with as much as two years imprison-
ment with hard labor.
On Sundays we are all privileged.
No one can be arrested on Sunday eX-
cept for treason. felony or breach Of
the peace If any one tries it on with
you, you can resist up to the point of
killing him.
A curious rule in connection with ar
rest is not generally known-if police

assault, he can make no arrest without
a decentralization Tit-Bits.
