QUAY FILES DEMURRERS.
Motion toQnanh tha-Indictment Matte
By HU Counsel.
Philadelphia, Nov. 19. The greet
Quay conspiracy case came up in the
court of quarter sessions yesterday and
was argued for nearly three hours be
fore Judge Flnletter. Demurrers were
filed by the defense to four of the five
Indictments, and a motion to quash
the fifth was made. The latter was on
the Indictment In which the Haywood
letter to the People's bank figured, no
tifying the bask that he would, as state
treasurer, deposit 1100,000, and that
Iltchard It. Quay was to borrow $100.
000 from the bank. After arguments
by Rufua E. Shapiey and A. 8. U
Shields for the defense and District At
torney Graham court was adjourned
until today. Judge Flnletter reserving
his decision.
The chief point In the argument for
the defense appeared to be that when
ntate money was deposited In a bank
It ceased to be state money and be
came the personal property of the bank.
It was admitted that the funds were
deposited In the People's bank as al
leged, but It was contended that If
burglar had stolen that money he
would have taken the bank's
money and not that of the state. This
simile was used to prove that If the
defendants borrowed the money they
secured the bank's money and not the
state's.
STEAMBOAT BOILER EXPLODES.
The Casualty IlemiH In Six Death
ami 8m Thirty Injured.
Stockton, Col., Nov. 28. The most
disastrous river accident In the his
tery of Stockton occurred yesterday
near Fourteen Mile Slough, when a
part of one of the boilers of the river
steamer T. C. Walker, which left 8an
Francisco about 6 o'clock Saturday
night, was blown out. killing six and
dangerously wounding 11 persons, while
probably 15 or 20 were more or less
badly hurt. The T. C. Walker Is owned
by the California Navigation and Im
provement company, and ran between
San Francisco and Stockton.
The dead are: John Tulan, captain of
the T. C. Walker; T. C. Blunt, the
agent In charge of the shipping of
sugar beets from the Moss tract to
the Crockett factory; Watson Henry,
engineer of the T. C. Walker; Mrs.
Henry, wife of the chief engineer;
Jerry Daily, fireman; Ferdinand Law,
of Seattle. Of the wounded James Cor
coran, deckhand, will probably die.
The majority of the passengers were
In bed when the explosion occurred,
and were awakened by the renort,
which was as loud as a cannon's doar.
People rushed from their rooms In
their night clothes. The whole forward
portion of the steamer's upper works
were blown away. The electric lights
had been put out and the escaping
steam enveloped the front portion of
the boat till it was Impossible to see
how much of the boat had been carried
away. The crew, asleep below deck,
were terribly scalded by the escaping
steam, and some may die. The steamer

HAVANA'S FATAL EXPLOSION.
Thlrty-elirht Persons, Mainly Chll
oren. Killed or Injured.
Havana, Nov. 29. A box of powder
exploded yesterday near the Helna bat
tery, resulting In the death or more or
less serious injury of 38 persons. Many
boxes of powder were stored In a pri
vate house, which also contained five
rooms full of Mauser and other cart
ridges. The careless handling of ono
of the boxes of powder or of one of
the boxes of cartridges caused the ex
plosion. Nobody was killed outright by the
explosion, but three of the injured died
yesterday nfternoon. and the condition
of most of the others Is more or less
critical. At least 15 are not expected to
live. It was a miracle that the Im
mediate loss of life was not great.
A man known as Jeronimo Smith bnd
acquired several hundreds of thousands
of cartridges, many of an old pattern,
at the various military depots here,
for a mere song, and was arranging to
lurn his Investment to account by re
moving the gunpowder from each pro
jectile, with a view to a better sale at
a profit. To this end he hired about 60
boys and girls, with a few men and
women, to do the work. The victims
ire mainly children.

Boston. Nov. 29. It Is definitely
known that more than 70 lives have
been lost in the wrecks of tugs, schoon
ers and coal barges during the storm
of Saturday night and Sunday morn
ing, and If the steamer Portland has
also gone down, as now seems probable,
the list of casualties will rise to 140,
with over 100 vessels of ail descriptions
ashore, two score of them total wrecks
and an unknown number probably be
neath the waves of Massachusetts bay.
There Is scarcely a bay, harbor or Inlet
from the Penobscot to New London
that has not on Its shores the bones of
some staunch craft, while along Mass
achusetts bay, and especially Boston
harbor, the beaches are piled high with
the wreckage of schooners and coal
barges. Tho record, although hourly
lengthening, is still Incomplete, for that
ocean graveyard of Cape Cod is still
to be beard from, and as It has nivcr
yet failed to give up some grim tale at
such a time lt probably will not be
found lacking on such an occasion.
The annoyance and Inconvenience of
the railroads and street car embargo,
covering the whole of southern New
England, sunk Into insignificance be
fore the story of destruction wrought
by wind and wave, yet It will be many
a day before the full Import of the dis

Vineyard Haven, Mass., Nov. 23. The
fierce northeast storm struck this port
Saturday night and continued all day
Sunday with great violence. It swept out
of existence a large fleet of sailing ves
sels which atirliered off this port to
eseape its fury. It Is known that at
least four men have perished, and It Is
prooable that as many more have lost
their lives. Twenty-one schooners,
nearly all heavily laden, and one bark

the Const.
Parts, Nov. 19. The minister of war,
M. De Freyclnet. In the chamber of
deputies yesterday, refused to Inter
vene In the Plcquart affair, and the
house approved the government's dec
laration, regarding the separation of
military and civil powers, by a vote of
437 to 71. During the debate tbe presi
dent of the chamber was frequently
obliged. to Intervene In order to quiet
tbe uproar on all sides.
M. pnincare. Republican, made an
Impassioned speech, tn the course of
which he said It was not necessary to
confound the army with a few Im
prudent men. While the members of
the court martial were above suspicion,
the prosecution of Plcquart savored ot
reprisal. Colonel Plcquarfs secret Im
prisonment, M. Polncare further as
serted, was beyond all precedent, and
there were guilty persons, he claimed,
who were enjoying scandalous Im
munity, M. Polncare. who was minister of
public Instruction In 1853-91, created a
sensation by adding:
"We were attacked for the Dreyfus
prosecution In 1891. but I learned of the
Dreyfus affair through the newspa
pers." M. Barthou. who was minister of
public works in 1894, here interjected:
"I am ready to Indorse the words of
M. Polncare, which are true."
This called forth more applause and
exclamations of "It Is absurd." "It Is
inconceivable." Thereupon M. Poln
care added:
"The only proof of Dreyfus' guilt In
1894 consisted of the bordereau. No
cabinet minister, nor even the presi
dent of the council of ministers, heard
any mention of the confessions Dreyfus
In alleged to have made to Captain
Lehrun-Renault."
M. Cassagnac, the former minister of
war, said:
"General Mercler secured these con
fessions." General Mercler was minister of war
at the time of the Dreyfus trial.
M. Polncare continued: "Captain
Lebrun-Renault, when he was examin
ed by the president of the council, did
not mention the Dreyfus confession."
M. Polncare concluded by saying:
"Silence has weighed heavily upon
me, and I am now happy to have had
the opportunity to tell what I know of
the ease."
M. De Freyclnet said: "The gov
ernment, on assuming office, found the
proceedings pending. We have only
one anxiety, and that Is lo ascertain
the truth; We do not object to furnish
ing the court of cassation with all the
evidence available, excepting the evi
dence Involving the national defense."
After another appeal from M. Mlller
and for a postponement of the Plc
quart court martial. M. Dupuy. the
premier, declared that the Dreyfus af
fair "must remain purely judicial, as
the only means of reaching the truth,
which may now be attained."
"We decline to order a postponement
of the court martial." said the premier.
"To rive such an order, even If we
had the right, would be to strike a
blow at the principle of separation of
the public powers. It is not within the
province of parliament or the govern
ment to adjust the connection which
may exist between the Dreyfus and
Flcquart case. Our Intervention
would be calculated to hamper the

THE NOVEMBER BLIZZARD.
Several pond and Dying Pontons
ricked t'p In tho Snow.
New York. Nov. 2S. The storm of
Saturday and Sunday In and about
New York was the severest since the
memorable blizzard of 18H8. The wind
blew at the rate of 6D miles an hour,
and the snowfall In the city, the weather
bureau reports, was about 10 Inches,
Philadelphia. 9 Inches; Huston. 6 Inch

little over an Inch. Tho lowest tern- ;
peratures reported were: New York

An order was sent out from police
headquarters to the various precinct
commanders to have arrested all per
sons found alone In a condition that 1
would raise even the suspicion of In

yesterday were crowded with eminently 1
respectable looking persons, who were
let go with a small tine and an ad

withstanding this precaution on the
part of the police there were a number
of casualties, including several death

fuse to be a government of arbitrary
measure."
The order of the day. approving the
statements of the government respect
ing the principle of the separation of
the Judicial and executive powers, was
then adopted by a vote of 437 to 73.
In the lobbies of the chamber Mr.
Dupuy's speech was interpreted as an
Invitation to the court of cassation to !
ask fir the production of the petit
bleu and other documents In the Pic-
quart case, which the government i Pandusky.
would immediately produce, thus Indi
rectly leading to a postponement of the
court martial, which the government
has refused to grant under dure.
The vote In the chamber enables the
antl-Dreyfusltes to sing a song of vic
tory, since the Dreyfuslte demand was
for the government to order the Plc
quart court martial postponed.
Nevertheless, the whole debate serv
ed to advance the cause of Dreyfus. M.
Dupuy's speech Is admitted on all
hands to have been a masterpiece of
statesmanship. He did not deny that
the government had power to inter
vene with General Z.urlimien. but ex
llalned that It would be better for th
! court of cassation to d so.
I Perhaps the most slgnltlcant feature
' of the debate after M. Polncare's reve
1 lations. which served to draw even
! closer the bonds of suspicion surround
i Ing General Mercler. Is the changing
1 attitude of the chamber toward M.
; Cavalgnac. The latter's speech before
i the period of the Henry suicide was ac
' eepted and placarded throughout tha
country as proof of the guilt ot Drey
fus. Now he Is received with the- howls
of the deputies when he attempts to
I Justify his attitude.
The general belief Is that the cUrt
of cassation will now demand ths Pi
roor or the portico. Further search
revealed that in one bedroom the thief
had secured ISO. three valuable pockdt
books and an old fashioned g.dd watch
belonging to Mrs. Kegar. In another
room the thief secured three valuable
stickpins.
