Philadelphia, May II. Republican?!
uf tin? ilnininaiu faction of that party
trnni every section of the Keystone
state paid homage tonight In United
Stales Senator .Matthew .S. Quay In
honor of his re-election to the upper
chamber of congress. Unrring a state
convention, tonight's gathering was
one of the greatest outpourings or Re
publicans to do honor to one man ever
witnessed in this slate. Governor
Stone was there, as were also all the
members of his cabinet, members of
Hie legislature, the municipal heads
of several Pennsylvania cities and all
tin- prominent Quay Republicans of
this city. The occasion took the form
of a banquet, followed by a. reception,
and was under the auspices of the
Pennsylvania State League of Repub
lican clubs.
Senator Quay, accompanied by J.
Hampton Moore, president of the
league, and Joseph X. Huston, who
noted as the senator's escort, arrived
from Washington at 4 o'clock this af
ternoon. The party was met at the
station by a reception committee of
::no club men. wlio escorted Colonel
ijuny to the Hotel 'Walton. Hroad
street from the station to the hotel was
lllled with people.
Senator Quay excused himself to all
callers at the hotel with the exception
of (iovernor Stone and Insurance
Commission Durham, of this city, with
whom Mr. Quay 'was closeted for
some lime. .At t o'clock the senator
was escorted to Horticultural hall,
where an elaliorte banquet was served,
covers being laid tor five hundred per
sons. The banquet hall was in bcauti
tul costume, every figure of the rain
bow llmirlug in the decorations. There
uas no speech-making at the dinner,
this feature of the occasion being re
served for the reception at the Acad
emy of .Music which adjoins Horticul
tural hull.
Theie was not a vacant seat in the
big auditorium when the diners, head
ed by Senator Quay marched Into the
cademy and the doors were closed to
ill late comers except those who par
ticipated In the banquet and who oc
cupied seats mi the stage. Senator
Quay's reception was a particularly
enthusiastic one, Cheer after cheer
uas given in his honor as he took his
at ill
ui" iroiu 01 i no scaup.
President Moore's Address.
President Moore presided. lie made
n short address before introducing the
guest of Ihe evening.
Among other things, President .Moore
said:
"When the State league passed the
resolution providing for a dinner to
the next I'nitcd States senator it was
not known who the successful candi
date would be. There was neither hero
worship nor factionalism in the move
ment. It was simply a desire on the
part of tht. aggressive young Republi
cans of this commonwealth to celebrate
n matter of great importance to the
state.
"After a long and unhappy struggle,
It happened In conformity with the
constitution and the law that the sen
atorial lepreseiitaliou of Penusvlvanla
u.is oumploled by the election of Mat
thew Stanley Quay to resume his high
station of senior senator in tin. na
tional congress. We are here tonight
to celebrate that event. .No matter
what -our views or individual prefer
ences may heretofore have been, we
are here now to honor the man who
has been chosen to represent us. We
are here to declare our adherence to
the law by which lie was elected and
the ruin of tho majority under the law.
We uro ,,.,.,. tl, pm.(m,.ilKo those who
are entrusted with the government of
mi- arfalrs. We are lien- to renew our
faith In tho honor and Integrity of. tho
commonwealth and to arouse the civic
prldo of her citizens.
"The senatorial buttle In ponusyl
vanla Is over. Wo have no quarrel with
our representatives, Wo believe It bet
tor to uphold and strengthen than In
defame hhn. There can come to him
no honor In which his constituents nmy
not share. Let T'ennsylvanlans stand
together for Pennsylvania."

CHINESE INDEMNITY.
An Annual Payment of, $10,000,000
Is the Extent of China's Ability.
Dy Inclusive Wire from The Associated Press.
Washington, Mny 11. A cablegram
from Mr. Ilockhlll, our special commis
sioner nt T'ekln, received at tho state
department, today, mentions the receipt
by the ministers of the response ot the
Chinese envoys to the ministers' de
mands for Indemnity. The dispatch In
dicates brleilv that the Chinese repre
sent that nn annual payment of $10,
000,000 Is tho full extent of their power
to pay on Indemnity accounts. It wllj
take thirty years to discharge the defft
ut that rule without Interest. Mr.
Hockhill makes no mention of tho sub
ject of interest, nor does ho touch upon
the means by which the money is to
be raised by China, or say who Is to
guarantee 11 loan necessary to be
made.
It appears thai, the Chinese feel
themselves obliged to submit to tho
powers In this question of Indemnity,
us In nil other things, and though real
izing their own Inability to assume this
Indebtedness of 450,000,000 taels, they
fed obliged to make the effort. .Mr.
Hockhill has been instructed to con
tinue his efforts to secure an abate
ment of the total indemnity, but In the
present disposition of the powers little
hope of success is entertained.

By i:cbinlve Wire from Tin- AAsoelated 1'iewi.
Albany, May 14, When darkness fell
this evening, several thousand weary
street car strikers and sympathizers
went to their houses, but they were re
placed by as many more, who took up
tlie vigil to prevent the United Trac
tion men from running their electrlo
ears with non-union men. The dark
ness brought some confidence . that
there would be no attempt before
morning to move ears, for two attempts
made In broad daylight had brought
bloodshed and riot on such a scale that
tlie local police, aided by scores or dep
uties and Plnkerton men, had been un
able to quell tho disturbance.
One man lies In a hospital seriously
wounded, one of the two ears Ibe com
pany attempted to run is In the gutter
near tho car house, wrecked, and tho
trolley wires are cut in several places,
practically crippling the road. Inside
tin; car house, afraid oven to look out
of the grated windows, are about seventy-five
non-union men, whom tlie
company expects to use in running tho
cars. 15a rly this morning- there were
about liiO of them, but by nightfall
sixty-five had deserted and joined the
ranks of the strikers.
The- men claim that they were
brought here under a misapprehension
and that they supposed they were go
ing to Philadelphia.
This afternoon tlie police practically
admitted that they wore powerless to
take care of the large crowds on the
streets, if cars were run, and General
Manager McNamara immediately called
upon General Oliver, In command of
the Third btlgade, Tor protection. . Hii
said: "Wo intend lo run out cars if It
takes Ihe entire National Guard of
New York slate to protect us."
General Oliver Issued an order as
sembling at their armory tonight the
Tenth battalion of Albany, comprising
four companies of the National Guard
of Infantry, and the Third Signal corps
mounted. General Oliver said that lie
would warn the remainder of the Third
brigade to be in readiness for a call.
An Exciting Riot.
Tlie riot to-day was full of exciting

They camo from all directions and
crashed through windows front, tear

Tlie men aboard dodged and jumped
from side to side to escape them and

and he dropped to the lloor of the
platform.
It was ti deep, ugly gash the lock

stream. Tlie assistant, as soon as the
man dropped, grasped the brakes and
controlling handle and faced the mob.
A few feot more and the car was upon,

Manila, May H. Now that the main
declared object of the Federalists
peace and American sovereignly has
been almost, accomplished the party's
future Is discussed. Under the coming
government, which Is to be composed
of appointive olllcluls, there will be
slight use for party activity outside of
municipal elections. The leaders hope
the parly will be considered as the
semi-official medium between the gov
ernment and the masses. They are at.
present endeavoring to obtain the re
lease of a thousand prisoners who
wre convicted of purely political of
fenses, the contention being that they
should have the same amnesty as thos,s
who wen- released when awaiting
trial.
The appearance of Insular issues will
