week than last, when the list was made
up very hastily, but it is not yet com

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.

Tli«» Quay C'SIM'.
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.

>lc Kill ley to Otis.
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

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

great. She was a life member of the
Presbyterian Church at Concord. She
was trne to her convictions, of strong
faith and sue died HS she had lived. ;n

I loss is her gain.
Wm. 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.

The character of Mr. Gebhard Wag
ner, whose death in this place on the ."it h
inst, was briefly mentioned last week,
is deserving of some further notice.
The esteem in which he was held arose
from his industry, integrity and good
traits as one of our citizens. Coining
from Germany to Butler when a young
man. in IH.~I-| he soon gained the confi
denceof all.our people and was very suc
cessful in his business, that of a painter
and plasterer. Shortly before his death
he was seized with what is commonly
called the grip and being of rather
feeble constitution it carried him off,
much to the regret of all who
knew him. Mr. Wagner was ii>
his 09th year. He leaves seven child
ren behind, all grown up. His wife
died a year or two ago.
