PHILADELPHIA, April 11.'—P1oceed—
ings 111 the tiial of Senatm Quay yes—
terday were tedious, but nevertheless
interesting in their bearing upon the
future of the case. District Attorney
Rothermel placed upon the stand in
Succession the paying teller, receiving
teller and bookkeepers of the broken
People’s bank to prove the books. All
of these, in answer to questions,
reference to Senator Quay's account,
and the bookkeepers said they had en-
tered the figures, but none of the books
were opened to show what the nature of
the account was. This will be done lat—
er. All of the bank employees on cross
examination stated that they had never
seen Senator Quay’s deposit book, and
they did not believe there was one. It
has been hinted that the defense will
claim that Senator Quay’s account in
the ledger was fictitious so far as he
was concerned and that the senator’s
name was used by Hopkins as a cloak
for his own personal transactions. The
cross examination yesterday would
seem to bear out this theoi'y.
The “red book” was a big feature of
the day‘s proceedings, figuring indirect~
ly in the testimony of several witnesses.
lts pages were gone over repeatedly.
and the question of its identification
with the business of the bank was dis-
cussed, and when court adjourned a
handwriting,r expert was on the stand
identifying the writing in it as the work
of Hopkins.
All of this was accomplished by the
district attorney in spite of the pro-
tests of the three acute. aggressive law-
yers employed by Senator Quay, who
fought in vain against the web of cir—
cumstantial evidence, involving the red
book to' surh an extent that it seems al-
most certain that this necessary piece
of evidence will have to be admitted
after all.
It was evident from the district attor-
ney’s attitude that he proposes to for-
mally offer the book in evidence in a
day or two, and he appears confident of
his ability to introduce the testimony
which its pages contain and which is
so vital in the establishment of the
charge of conspiracy between Quay,
Haywood and Hopkins to use the mon-
cy of the state for illicit gains. As the
latter two are dead, only Senator Quay
remains to face the charge.
The most interesting witness of the
day was Clay Kemble, son of X‘Villiam
H. Kemble, deceased, the founder of
1 the People‘s bank. Mr. Kemble was as-
sistant cashier and a director as well.
He did not take a very active part in
the operation of the bank, being there
as a representative of his father’s es-
tate. On cross examination he denied
having any bias against anybody con-
nect .d with the failure of the bankand
said neither he nor his mother was be-
hind the prosecution. When asked what
lHopkins’ duties were, he replied, “He
was the whole thing.”
While this witness was on the stand
the district attorney gained a signal
victory by securing the admission of the
minute book of the bank in which Cash-
ier Hopkins kept a record of the meet-
ings of the board of directors. The par-
- ticular entry bearing on the Quay case
i which the district attorney was anxious
' to get in, is under date of Aug. 3, 1896.
‘ It reads:
“The only offering for a loan before
the board was the note of (Senator) Ar-
thur Kennedy and R. R. Quay. indorsed
by M. S. Quay, with stock of —— at-
tached. it was agreed tomakc this
loan provided '11. R. Quay complied
with the president's request for a cer-
tain letter."
The "certain letter” is the one which
is regarded as the most damaging evi—
dence against Senator Quay’s son. It is
dated at Harrisburg, July 31, 1896, and
addressed to James McManes, People’s
bank, Philadelphia. It is signed by D.
J. Haywood. state treasurer, and reads
as follows: “Dear Sir—On Monday‘we
will mail you a check for $100,000 for
credit of commonwealth of Pennsylva-
nia general fund, which will make a
credit to our account of $600,000. The
understanding is that I am not to draw
against any part of this deposit until
the Hon. R. R. Quay has paid or ar-
ranged satisfactory to you the loan of
$100,000 which you are to make him next
week.”
..1_...n...-..-._..a-__..4_ _____. --__n_...__--._<..~_ - .—
the minute book, saying that although
the $100,000 note bears Senator Quay’s
i‘ndorsement he knew nothing whatever
of the letter from Haywood and had
nothing to do with the juggling of state
money indicated by it. The district at-
torney claimed that the loan was vir—
tually made to Senator Quay and that
Haywood received interest on the de-
1 posit. Judge Biddle said he would ever-
; rule the objection, as the offer tended
to prove the existence of a conspiracy.

cipal address. Delegations of Democrats
were in attendance from many towns
throughout the state, and nearly all the
Democrats from the state legislature
were present. Colonel Bryan was es-
corted on an early train from Chicago

and Mayor Carter Harrison came later,
also with a large number of escorts.

A NIGHT ATTACK.

liANILA, April 14.—At about 4 o’clock
yesterday morning a small body of reb-
els attacked the camp of the Third ar—
tillery from the swamp near Paonbon, a
mile and a half w est of Malolos.
Two privates w-e1e killed and a lien-
te.1ant and two otheis were wounded.
With the coming of daylight the
American forces scoured the district.
driving the rebels northward and kill-
ing several of them.
A private soldie1 of the Montana 1eg
iment was \1 ounded.
Fiancisco Reyes. the man who re~
cently purchased the Spanish gunboats
at Zamboanga, island of Mindanao, has
received advices to the effect that the
fleet sailed for Manila and returned a
few days later with the vessels stripped
of their guns and ammunition.
The purchaser’s agents and native
crews for the vessels, on board the
American steamer Butuan, .were c011-
voyed to Zamboanga by the United
States cruiser Boston and were instruct—
ed to wait for the arrival there of the
United States gunboat Petrel. Instead
of so doing, after the Boston sailed from
Zamboanga the Spaniards transferred
the gunboats to the agents of Senor
Reyes, and the fleet left Zamboanga
unescorted. ' They soon after returned
and reported having been boarded by
the rebels. who removed the gunboats’
armaments.
If the instructions of the American
naval commander had been obeyed,
their capture would have been impossi-
blc.
Zamboanga is feitified and still gar-
risonod by Spaniards and the affair is
regarded as suspicious.

LONDON Aplil 14. ——The Press asso-
