WASHINGTON. On Thursday last President McKinley sent the Spanish treaty to the Senate for ratification, together with all the papers in the case. The treaty is long and its snbstamce is already known. (Quay's chances for succeeding him self were discussed among Pennsyl vanians there, and are generally con sidered to be gloomy, John Dalzell was .quoted as follows: "I have studied the conditions at Harrisburg carefully and without pre judice," "and I fail to see any chance for the election of Quay. I am firmly convinced that his 109 votes, instead of increasing, as Quay's friends profess to expect as a certainty, will gradually leave him. He has developed his full strength, and gained what he had only by the most desperate exertions, un limited promises of places in the next State Administration, the makeup of legislative committees and the official and clerical roll of House and Senate and other methods which can be em ployed so well by no other than Quay. With all this he falls far short of the number of votes necessary to elect, and I cannot discover where he has any hope for making that number good." Charlemagne Tower of Philadelphia has been appointed Minister to the Court of Russia and Joseph Choate to the Court of Great Britain. BUTLER COUNTY is for John Dalzell for United States Senator; and it is not for any man who went into the Quay caucus. The statesmen of this state have been forced to take second place long enough, by the state and city politicians: and if Dalzell cannot make it the second choice of the Republicans of this coun ty would probably be Chas. W. Stone, who was defeated for Congress in his district by a combination of the Quav and Standard Oil Co- forces. West Liberty. John Staff, Sr. is a jnryman this week.

To the Supreme Court of the State sitting in Philadelphia, last Saturday, the arguments for and against granting the writ asked for in the ease of the Commonwealth versos M. S. Quay etal was arged. D. T Wataon, of Pittsburg, lead off in a very ingenious and sophistical argument for the defendants: Graham, of Philadelphia, ably and fully answered him; and Shapley, of Philadelphia, made a monkey of himself. It was an extraordinary proceeding, the first writ of the kind asked of the Supreme Conrt since the adoption of the new con stitution. and its object was to delay proceedings in the case and if possible secure a change of venue. The Court held the matter until Tues daj* morning when, as the justices took their seats. Chief Justice Sterrett said "In the petition of M S Quav. Richard R Quay and Benjamin F. Haywood, the rule is discharged and the petition dismissed at the cost of the j>etitioners. The case was thus disposed of with the brevity usual in cases of no public importance, but the effect of these few words was electrical on the persons in the court room. Most of the spectators were Quay adherents, and for a time they were 6tunned. The trial will now take place in the court of quarter sessions, of Philadel phia, as soon as the district attorney and the court are readv. It is possible that the case may not lie called for trial until the February term of court THK DECISION. The decision filed, after disposing of the legal points raised continues. "We are clearly of the opinion that we have no authority whatever in this proceeding to review the action of the court below on the demurrers and mo tion to quash, and we, therefore, ex press no opinion in realition thereto. "The only other contention of the pe titioner that requires notice is that they cannot have a fair and impartial trial in the court of Quarter Sessions of the peace of Philadelphia county where said indictments are still pending on issue of fact raised by their pleas of Not guilty.' "We cannot assent to this proposi tion. On the contrary, we are satisfied that the petitioners can and will have a fair and impartial tri?l in the conrt be fore a competent and unprejudiced judge and a fair and impartial jury. If we thought otherwise we would not hesitate a moment to send the indict ments to another jurisdiction for trial. The learned judges, who, by virtue of their commissions as judges of the four separate Common Pleas courts in this chnnty. are judges of the courts of Oyer and Terminer and Quarter Sess ion of the peace, etc.. are 12 in number, and sit in said courts in pursuance of previous assignment under the consti tutional provision, by which, for ex ample, a judge of Common Pleas No. 1 and a judge of Common Pleas No. 4 (without designating either of them by name) will be assigned to hold the criminal courts during the next March sessions, and judge of Common Pleas No. 2 and a judge of Common Pleas No. 8 will be assigned to hold said courts during next April sessions, and so on throughout the year. "The judges of the respective courts from which these assignments are made arrange among thomselves as to which of them will go inio the Criminal court or in case of sickness or necessaiy ab sence one of the other judges of the Court of Common Pleas from which the assignments are made for that ses sion may take the place of the sick or absent judge, etc. Under this arrange ment the judges who held the Criminal courts in November last will probably not be required to sit therein for sever al months thereafter. "Of the 12 judges whom thus in turns hold the Criminal courts, only two are subjects of complaint in these petitions for the rule. One of these re signed his commission, and that severed his connection with Common Pleas No. a and all the other courts before the petitioners filed their de murrers and motion to quash. As to what he is alleged to have done while he held his commission it is difficult to say what, if any, effect it may have in jireventing or even tending to prevent the petitioners from having a fair, im partial trial before either of the other judges now in commission. "The only apparent oobjections to the other learned judge who rightly took the place of his colleague when the lat ter resigned are that he did not dispose of the demurrers and motion to quash in the manner that petitioners claim shonld have been done, and that he has a son who is a member of the bar and holds a position in the district attorney s office. These objections were uncalled for, and require no comment further than to say that in the opinion overrul ing the demurrers and denying the mo tion to quash he clearly and fearlessly stated his reasons for so doing, and we see no reason whatever to question his integrity of purpose, and he is too well known and to highly respected in that community and elsewhere to require any vindication at our hands. ' When December 12 was agreed up on as the time for the trial of the indict ments it was well understood that other judges (one from Common Pleas No. 1 and one from Common Pleas No. 1 would hold the December sessions of the Criminal court, and that months would probably elapse before it would again come the turn of the learned pres ident of Common Pleas No. 8 to serve in said courts. When the petition was presented and rule to show cause with stay of proceedings was granted on December it, IM'JN, a speedy trial was in prospect on the following Monday. l>e tore one of the learned judges then holding the Criminal court, against neither of whom was there a breath of complaint: and we have no reason to doubt that fair and impartial juries could then, and can now, be empannel led for the trial of the several indict ments. Without further reference to other features of the case, our conclu sion is that there appears to lie no sutti cient reason to justify the issuance of a certiorari. The rule to show cause is, therefore, discharged, ami the petition is dismissed at the cost of the petition ers.'' A CLEAR, VIRILE DECISION Had the decision of the Supreme Court ui>on the conspiracy cases of Quuy, Haywood et al been other than that yesterday rendered, the effect upon the public mind of Pennsylvania and the country at large would be very de plorable Chief Justice Stern tt. in a clear, virile opinion, brushes away the last vestige of the plea that among 12 learned judges of the Courts of Phil adelphia thesp defendants could not ob tain a fair trial. Were there any active animosity against Senator Quay in the hearts of these judges, he would still have his capable counsel to note the slightest divergence on their part from established judicial rulings; and he would also haye his right of appeal af terward, the same as is enjoyed by nil other defendants. lii another part of his opinion Chief •Justice Sterret shows that the Supreme Court coulil not put thn cart before the horse by hearing now the objections to the rulings of Judge Finletter, of which the defendant can have full benefit if the trial go against him, when lie can apply to the Huperior Court iwt to the Supreme Cocrt, who*# jurisdiction is expressly excluded from Quarter Ser, sions appeals. Without prejudging anything here fitter to be ottered in In-half of Quay. Haywood et al, it is in place to say that the attempt to arrest- the processes of our courts of Justice in the case of these i eminent political personages— and that, too. upon the scarcely disguised plea of political urgency produced a most un pleasant impression throughout the State. The cast- will now go to trial and will be decided without prejudi e or favor, and strictly u|>oii it - merits, be the effect upon the political ambitions and antagonisms of the principal de fondants what they may. It is need less to say that yesterday's dacision will not improve Senator Quay s changes of succeeding himself for Senator, nnles.- indeed, he should now promptly demand the trial he has sought to postpone, and succeed in vindicating himself in the only forum where vindication is jkw--i ' ble. There is even vet time for this be fore the election for Senator, if the de fendants desire to face the issue in that fashion.—Pittsburg Dispatch.

President McK in ley's inst ructions to , Gen. Otis.in command at Manila, trans- | mitted through the Secretarj of War, regarding the government of the Philij)- pines were as follows: With the signature of the treaty of peace between the United States and Spain by their respective Plenipotenti aries at Paris, on the loth ins*, and as the result of the victories of American arms, the fntnre control, disposition and government of the Philippine Is lands are ceded to the I'nited States. In fulfilment of the rights of sovereign ty thus acquired, and the responsible obligations of government thus assum ed, the actual occupation and adminis tration of the entire group of the Phil', ppine Islands become immediately nec essary, and the military government heretofore maintained by the I'nited States in the city, harbor and bay of Manila is to be extended with all possi ble despatch to the whole of the ceded t erritcry. In performing this duty the millitaiy commander of the I'nited States is en joined to lwake known to the inhabitants of the Philippines Islands that, in suc ceeding to the sovereignty of Spain, in severing the former political relations of the inhabitants and in establishing a new political power, the anthority of the United States is to be exerted for the security of the persons and property of the people of the islands, and for the confirmation of all their private rights and relations. It will be the duty of the commander of the forces of occupa tion to announce and proclaim in the most public manner that we come, not as invaders or conquerors, but as friends to protect the natives in their homes, in their employments and in their personal and religious rights. All persons win, either by active aid or by honest sub mission, cooperate with the Govern inent of the United States to give effect to these beneficent purposes, will re ceive the reward of its support and pro tection. All others will be brought within the lawful rule we have assumed with firmness if need be, but without severity so far as may be possible. Within absolute domain of military authority, which necessarily is ami must remain supreme in the ceded territory until the legislation of the United States shall otherwise provide, the municipal laws of the territory, in respect to private rights and property and the repression of crime, are to be considered as continuing in force, and to be administered bv the ordinary trib unals so far as practicable. The opera tions of civil and municpal government are to be preformed by such officers as may accept the supremacy of the Unit e l States by taking the oath of allegi ar.ee, or bv officers choosen as far as may be practicable from the inhabitants of the islands. While the control of all the public property and the revenues of the State passes with the cession, and while the use and management are necessarily re served to the anthority of the United States, private property, whether be longing to individuals or corporations, is to be respected, except for «auS3«luly established. The taxes and duties here tofore payable by the inhabitants to the late Government become payable to the authorities of the United States, unless it is seen fit to substitute for them other reasonable rates 01 modes of contrihu tion to the expenses of government, whether general or local. If private property be taken for military use, it shall be paid for when possible in cash at a fair valuation, and when payment in cash is not practicable, receipts are to be given. All i>ortsand places in the I'hilippjne Islands in the actual possession of the land and naval forces of the United States will be opened to the commerce of all friendly nations. All goods and wares not prohibited for military rea sons by due announcement of the mili tary authority will be admitted upon payment of such duties and other charg es as shall be in force at the tjnjo of their importation Finally, it should be the earnest and paramount aim of the military adminis tration to win the confidence, respect and affection of the inhabitants of the Philippines by assuring to then: in ev ery possible way that full measure of individual rights and liberties which is the heritage of free peoples, and Im proving to them that thu mission of the United States is of benevolent assimila tion, substituting the mild sway of jus tice and right for arbitrary rule. In the fulfilment of this high mission, sup porting the temperate administration of affairs for the greatest good of the g>iv erned, there must be sedulously main tained the strong arm of authority to repress disturbances and to overcome all obstacles to the bestowal of the Mess ing of good and stable government Up on the people of the Philippine Islands under the free Hag of the United States ;>!»•< 'liiito< , k--Ki»glisli.

The grim monster invaded the home of Joseph Cumberland on the sth or Jau., 181H). and bore away the life of the mother of the family circle, Mr- M irtha Jane Cumberland, in the 7>th j year of her aye. Her death was <lne to erysipelas and her sufferings \v. r • great. She was a life member of the Presbyterian Church at Concord.

Starr died at his home near Troutman. early on Thursday morning, i Jan 5. 1899. in the 79th year of his age, j and his remains were consigned to mother earth ir> the Mt. Zion cemetery ' on Saturday. Mr. Starr had been a suf ferer for several years with those ail ments incidental to old age and the im mediate cause of his death was due to a severe attack of grip. He was one of those persons of a rugged and robust constitution that seems to defy disease. By close attention to business he amas sed a large amount of property and no day that could be turned to good ac count ever found him idle. He is sur vived by his wife, two sons and tour daughters: J Herman Starr of Butler. J. Willard Starr of Glade Miils, Mrs. J. W. Hendrickson of Magic, Mrs. Wm. Marks of Butler. Mrs. David Bnrns of Petrolia and Mrs. Chris Miibnrger of Great Belt. By his death the community has lost a good neighbor, his wife a devoted hus band and his children a kind and indul gent parent; and his loss will l>e felt by theni for years to come. "He rests from his labors and his works do follow him." When the death angel entered the home of Perry Hilliard and claimed for his own the spirit of Sarah McCracken he robbed the home of her parents of a kind and dutiful daughter, her fifuiily ot a loving and affectionate sister, her church of a faithful member.her neigh bors of a kind frier.d and the entire cir cle of her acquaintance of a most beau tiful life; and her earl} death spread the gloom of sorrow over this whole com munity and wherever she was known Without far she entered the dark val ley and crossed the mystic river to fairer regions beyond the skies, where, "some sweet day" the fond father, long bereft of earthly vision, may confidently ex pect to meet his child, clad in the robe of immortality, and with heavenly sight behold his lost one seated around the throne with all those who have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. The agonising grief of the kind mother will give way to thrills of rapture and the keen sorrow of brother and sisters will be replaced with joy and gladness when they meet their loved one in the city of the Great King, if they are but faithful to the trust reposed in them here. Miss McCracken contracted a cold during the last session of the Butler Co. Teachers' Institute which speedily re sulted in that fell destroyer, quick con sumption. Everything that medical skill could suggest was done for licr, and kind and loving hands were constant in their administrations, but to no avail. Her funeral sermon was preached by her pastor, Rev. Miller from the text. '"And it shall coins to pass in that day saitli the Lord that 1 will cause the sun to go down at noon and I will darken the earth in the clear day." The funeral took place from the home of her father, Robert .McCracken of Fair view twp. on Thursday,the nth inst and her mortal body was laid to rest in Brooklyn cemetery near Lane Station, in Westmoreland county,there to await the resurrection of the inst.
