Washixqtox, Peb. 14. Senator Quay
trai too ill to come to the Capital to-day.
If he is well enough to speat ou Monday,
it ia expected that be trill then make a per
sonal statement regarding criticisms brought
against his course in the Senate and out
of it on the elections bill and on more per
sonal matters.
The Senator has been busy with hi: manu
script on this subject for some time, and he
has at last completed It to tlie satisfaction of
himself and friends. He did propose to
make the statement this week, but owing to
illness, he was obliged to postpone It
A Strong Statement Prepared.
The Senator has prepared his answer care
fully, and those who have seen it claim that
he will cut his accusers to confusion. Sen
ator Quay is fullering from malaria and
heart trouble, and until to-day lie has been
confined to his bed. He is receiving medi
cal advice from Medical Director Wales,
of the United States Army, and has been
told that he must cease work and take a
complete rest.
Acting under that advice, Senator Quay
has decided that as soon as he has made bis
statement in the Senate he will tate a trip
to Florida, where he will remain for several
months. Representative Quay will accom
pany his father, and they will occupy a
new cottage built for the party near the
scene of former tarpon fishing.
Great Praise for Dalzell.
Kepresentative Dalzcll is still the re
cipient of no end of compliments for his
speech in criticism of Secretary Tracy's
course in the Eeiter affair, which called out
a pretty bit of commendation even from the
Secretary himself. Judge Crisp, of Georgia,
one 01 the finest lesal minds in the House
I and easily ahead at this time for the Speak
ership, siid to-dav that in all his political
'and Congressional' career he never heard a
more masterly address, or one that had such
incontrovertible facts runnicgall through it.
"Commander Beiter has been thoroughly
vindicated by that speech," said Sir. Crisp.
"Whether the Secretary of the Xavy grants
or does not grant him a court martial, he
'has had his case presented in such a clear
and forcible manner that all who have read
the accounts in the newspapers cannot but
recognize the fact that the censnre was un
called lor, and that the Secretary went out
side of his duties in acting in the manner
he did.
Xo Answer Was Possible.
"Every intelligent reader knows by this
time that Commander Iteiter has been un
justly treated by the administration, and
isobody could have presented his case in a
better light than could Dalzell. .It was
simply magnificent. It was also unanswer
able, and Lodge should have recognized
that fact before he attempted to reply."
It is stated by high authority that the ac
tion of Secretary Tracy did not mee; with
i the apDroval of the President, who was not
consulted before the censure was made pub
lic When Congressman Dalzell went to
the President in reference to the matter, he
was told that the executive head of the
Government had had nothing to do with the
case and that as long as the Secretary had
chosen to act as he did He could cet out of it
in the best way he could. Lightxee.
KILLING THE AMENDMENTS.
All the Senate Changes 31ade in the Copy
right Bill Deleated.
Washington, Feb. 14. The copyright
bill was proceeded with in the Senate to
day. Mr. Carlisle offered an amendment,
I intended to carry out the policy of the Sher
man amendment, adopted yesterday. It
strikes out all of section 3 after
i the Sherman amendment, and substitutes
for it a provision that the section shall not
be construed so as to subject to duty any
article now admitted free under the laws
of the United States, and that if
any person shall, in the TTnfted
States, print either for sale or expor-
' tation any book, map, chart, or dramatic or
musical composition, in which there shall
be a subsisting copyright,.without the con
sent in writing of the proprietor thereot, or
shall knowingly import lor sale or hire any
such article, having been so unlawfully
printed, or shall otter the same lor sale, he
shall be subject to a fine not exceeding
$1,000.
The amendment was adopted, and the
hill was reported from the committee of the
whole to the Senate, when all committee
amendments were voted on in bulk and
were disagreed to yea, 29; nays, 31.

its investigation into thei conduct of the
State Board of Charities has been consider
ably criticized in Pennsylvania newspapers
of 'late. When this was mentioned to
Congressman Beyburn, the chairman of
the committee to-day, he said:
"If these critics were to go to my house
they would find that while I was not travel

I am hard at wore upon the report, but it is
a tedious piece of business and involves a
vast deal of labor. My Congressional duties

TAGGART'S FINE WORK.
URGING THE APPOINTMENT OF MAGNIN
TOE VA-RRTTTf,
Br Succeeding In This He Hopes To Get
Even With Cameron A Call on the
President and a Pleasant Reception
From Him.
IFROM A STATP COBRKSPOlTDrjrT.l
Washington, Feb. 14. Representative
Taggart, who made such a brilliant failure
at defeating Cameron for re-election to the
United States Senate, is in the city looking
out for an appointment, that will at least
have some semblance of a slap at Cameron.
Taggart came here tbis morning and went
to the office of Postmaster General Wasa
maker. He told Mr. Wananiaker that he
favored the appointment of Mr. Magnin, of
Delaware county, Tor the office of United
States Marshal for the Eastern district of
Pennsylvania, and asked bis co-operation.
Mr. Wanamaker quietly informed Mr. Tag
gart that he was not taking any hand in the
selection of a successor to tbe late Marshal
Sill, but if Mr. Taggart desired, he would
accompany him to the White House, where
he could lay his esse before the President.
This was satisfactorv to Taggart, and he
got-into the carriage of the Postmaster Gen
eral, and together they drove to the Execu
tive Mansion. Of course Mr. Harrison re
ceived him with open arms, as he was the
man who had tried so hard and so long to
defeat Cameron. When tbe introduction
had taken place the talk of Magmn's ap
pointment was gotten through witb, and then
the President informed Mr. Taggart that
his case would receive the consideratiin it
deserved, and that he would bear from tbe
subject again. With his politest bow and
pleasantest smile Mr. Taggart took his de
parture, feeling sure that tbe case was won.
It is said by some here to-night that the
President sent for Taggart in order to have
a consultation on tbe matter of tbe appoint
ment, and tbe matter is looked upon as be
ing a chance for Taggart to get square, in a
measure, with Senator Cameron, who is on
tbe back of Benuyson's application. Tag
gart comes from Montgomery county, and
tbe fact that he is urging the appointment
of a candidate who lives in Delaware county
is rather significant.
It is expected that all doubts in tbe mat
ter will' be set aside in a few days by the ap
pointment of a successor to the late Andy
Dili.
CIVILIZING THE INDIAN.
It Should Be Done With the Plow, and Not
the Spelling Book.
Washington, Feb. 14. The House to
day went into Committee of the Whole, Mr.
Dingley, of Maine, in the chair. On the
Indian appropriation bill Mr. Smith, of
Arizona, said the Indian question should be
settled by the plowshare, and not by the
spelling book. He (Mr. Smith) had been
West in search of Fenimore Cooper's con
ception of an Indian. He had found the
Indian a nasty, dirty, lazy vagabond, who
would not work. All the Indian wanted
was enough to eat
A DAY INJHE COURTS.
Only a Few Sentences Dealt Ont Yesterday
Another Sunday Work Case to Be De
cidedAn Injunction Against Controller
Grier Refused Court Notes.
In the Criminal Court yesterday morning
Judge Stowe heard an argument on an ap
peal of F. L. Bobbins from a fine imposed
by Alderman Bell, for violation of the
Sunday law. Bobbins is a coal operator
and employs a man on Sunday to furnish
coal to engines on the Pittsburg and West
ern Bailroad. Tbe original suit was brought
by the Law and Order Society. The Court
took the papers and will hand down a de
cision next week.
Application was made find granted to
admit Patrick St. Clair to bail in $1,000.

AN INJUNCTION BEFUSED
Jn the Case of Alex Gllfillan Against County
Controller Grier.
Jndse Collier yesterday handed down his
opinion m the case of Alexander Gllfillan
against County Controller Grier. The suit was
an equity case, bfouzbt by Gllfillan to restrain
tbe Controller from awarding the contracts for
the county deposits to tbe Central Bank. The
only bid considered for interest on the current
daily balances was tbat of tbe Central Bank. A
mistake was made in the advertisement in one
of tbe German papers giving the time for the
conclusion of receiving of bid', and tbe Union
Bank came in a day too late. The bill was tben
tiled to restrain tbe Controller from awarding
the deposits to tbe Central Bank, on the
grounds of an unjust preference.
Tbe Court, in its opinion, did not dispute tbe
right of a taxpayer to tile such a bill, but for so
client a mistake it was not considered that tbe
taxpayers bad received much injury. It did
not anpear that a higher bid had been offered,
and they declined to hold that tbe advertise
ments were insufficient, and refused the in
junction asked for.
A SUIT FOB $5,000 DAMAGES

OVER $300iN PRIZES!
First We will give a 75 set
of Encyclopaedia Britannica,
30 volumes, which includes the
five volumes of American Sup
plement, the 30 volumes bound
in full Library, or one-half Rus
sk Leather, to any person

duction of the latest edition,
the 9th.
Second We will give a S60
set of Encyclopaedia Britan
nica, 30 volumes, to any person
proving that there is any Re
print' of the Encyclopaedia
Britannica, other than that
published by the Henry G. Al
len Company.
Third We will give a $45 set
of Encyclopaedia Britannica, 30
volumes, to any person proving
that the work published by a
Chicago publishing house,
and called the Encyclopaedia
Britannica, is a reprint of the
Britannica.
Fourth Another 45 set of
Encyclopaedia Britannica, 30
volumes, to any person prov
ing that the work -with the se
f ductive title, "The American
ized'1 Encyclopaedia Britannica
is the Britannica.
, To judge from the elaborate
use of ink and paper in behalf
of- the last-named work by
one of the Pittsburg papers,
some may think that their only
saira is to provea beacon to an
unsuspecting public. Is it pos
sible that neither the paper nor
the publishers of the "New
Americanized" Encyclopaedia
Britannica knew that the Brit
annica had already been Amer-
icanized by eminent American
writers; and so ably done, loo,
that the 'five 5 volumes of .the
American Supplement to the
Britannica, treating matters of
vital importance to Americans
bringing the work down to re
cent date, giving biographies
of eminent living persons,called
forth commendation from the
press of Europs as well as that
of our own country !
An exhaustive Encyclopaedia
dialogue, in the paper referred
to on the 6th inst, gives a talk
between a prospective buyer of
this mutilated Chicago edition,
. and a representative of the
publishers of the same, in
which the representative asserts
that UJyssus S. Grant is not
mentioned in the Britannica;
that it says not a word about
Sherman, Hancock, Blaine nor
Harrison, though our supple
ment mentions Harrison and
states that he is the twenty-first
President of the United Statesl
He continues with Harriet
Beecher Stowe, Julia Ward
Howe, Elizabeth Stuart Phelps,
. Charles Stewart Parnell nor
Bismarck, nor Jefferson Davis;
and we presume if the deluded
prospective' buyer had not
called, "Hold," the obliging
representative would have still
been naming eminent persons
omitted from .the Britannica.
We will give 100 to any
Pittsburg benevolent institution
if there is a single one of the
above named persons omitted
from our work.
In the dialogue referred to,
replying to the inquisitor's
query, if the Britannica says
anything about anybody? the
smooth representative answers,
"Oh, yes; it contains some of
the most magnificent biog
raphies"that were ever written;
McCauley's life of Johnson, for
example." But even that mag
nificent eulogy could not escape
the -pruning process employed
to reduce the work to 10 vol
umes." This was done by omit
. ting from the article in the
Britannica, paragraph after
paragraph, and giving the bal
ance of the article verbatim.
For the benefit of the public -we
would ask'ttiis Chicago pub
lishing concern to inform the
public who are the writers or
contributors 'to this wonderful
"Americanized Britannica" that
is being foisted upon the atten-
tion of our interested citizens.
In all candor the Henry G.
Allen Co. will say to those con
templating buying the Encyclo
paedia Britannica, "Look before
you leap. Examine both before
1 you buy."
One of the, Chicago editions
is fatally , mutilated, and the
other -7, well, it is a nonde-
