vary from one-Quarter TO one-haIf Of the
penalties imposed. All persons who are
awaiting final decisions by the Court of Ap-
peals must withdraw their appeals in order
TO benefit by this order This order also
clears up all doubt regarding pardon for
offenses committed In connection with war
An order was issued March a. 1899 by
General John K. Brooke, then military Gov
ernor of Cuba. promising pardon for crimes
committed by troops in the field during
the war. An explanation of this order con-
tained In circular issued by the Cuban
secretary of justice April %. 1899. caused
some doubt as TO just what military Of
fenses were pardOnable. The present order
OF pardon says that this step is taken in
order that era of harmony may be in

Another Sensation i'm keystone
State Politics.

PHILADELPHIA. April 11.-After months
of silence United States Senator Quay an
nounced to-day that he is opposed to the
nomination of Attorney General John F.
Elkin for Governor of Pennsylvania.
This announcement came as great
shock TO the friends of Mr.. Elkin
and has caused a tremendous stir
i'm political circles. Insurance Commits
sioner Israel w. Durham, the leader of the
Republican organization in this city, who
some time ago publicly announced that he
was for Elkin. "sink or swim" has been
,won over and i'm an interview tonight said
he concurs in the. view taken of the situa-
ton by Senator Quay. who stated that
General Elkins nomination would threaten
the success of the State, congressional and
legislative tickets.
Senator Quay arrived here from Wash
ington yesterday and has held numerous
conferences with Durham and other po-
litical friends during the last twenty-four
hours at his headquarters. The senator S
attitude was positively known to his friends
Yesterday. and early this evening at long
conference General Elkin learned from Sen
ator Quay's own lips his attitude in the
matter. What actually took place at the
torney general would say, but later each
gave out formal statement.
Senator Quay in his statement said: i
am a friend of General Elkin, and If
was permitted TO name the Governor of
PENNSYLVANIA / would name Mr.. Elkin. But
| regard his candidacy under present con-
ditions as threatening to Republican sue
cess upon the state, congressional and leg
islative tickets, and if | am a delegate tc
the Republican state convention L cannot
support him. L have candidate for the
position of Governor or any other position.
The selection of candidates is Tor the con-
vention. which / believe will be an intelli-
gent impartial and deliberative body.
Attorney General Elkins statement fol-
lows: Il refuse to be ordered out, bargained
out. dealt out or forced out of the canvass
for Governor ! am a candidate to the fin
ish and will continue aggressive canvass
until the Republican convention shall make
it's nomination. A majority of the Repub-
lican voters should determine who the
nominee shall be. From the outset l have
appealed to the people for support and will
continue this policy to the end. From as
surances received from all over the State
to-day l have every reason to believe that
nv friends will be successful in the con-
vention The American people believe In
fair play and / rest my case with them.
Among the candidates mentioned for the
place on the Republican ticket are Maj
Gen John r. Brooke, who is soon to be re-
tired. United States Attorney General Phil
ander c. Knox and former United States
Senator Don Cameron.

shown by the records that Beverley had
served in the Reformatory at Jefferson
Vile. where he was punished at least
dozen times for various infractiOns OF the
rules. Ray was inclined TO be tart in his
answers, which were invariably, These
are the records; they will show for them

The board had a hard time convincing one
convict. Beverley. colored. that he would
be protected from harm. no matter what
privilege of writing a letter to the Gov

nard said TO Beverley that he would be un-
harmed. but the prisoner was not satisfied.
Yes, Mr.. Barnard, but you know I've been
told that so many times" When Governor
Durbin made himself known the prisoner
had nothing more to say and started on his
story.
Convict Catlin suffered from a crippled
spine and his mind was little better than
blank. He was the object of much pity.
