Choate, the United States embassador, was the principal guest at a, banquet given. last evening at the Reform clu by Mr. Poultney Bigelow. ‘ ‘ Among the ~table decorations were four books which Mr. Bigelow, in a felicitous speech, said had “done as much as anything to bring together our two nations”. They were Captain Al— fred T. Mahan’s “Influence of Sea Pow: er In, History,” Sir George Atto Trevel- yan's “History of the American Revo- lution,” Mr. Henderson’s “Life of Stone- Wall Jackson” and Professor Bryce’s “The American Commonwealth.” In responding to the toast to the queen Lord Charles Beresford spoke of. his cordial reception by the American people and President McKinley, which, he believed, was accorded him “solely on account of the good feeling now ex- isting between our two countries, a feeling which will make for the peace of the world.” . At the conclusion of his response he proposed the health of President Mc- Kinley. Mr. Choate, responding, alluded to his more than friendly reception here and said that, while he did not believe the two countries would march shoulder .to shoulder, as Lord Charles Beresford had suggested, he was convinced there would hereafter be a good ufiderstand— ing between the two, which would be a benefit to both and to the world in gen— rural.

For three Defense Tries to Exclude the Bank Books. ‘4‘ THE JUDGE’S DECISION AWAITED. Barlow Testifies to Having Broken Open the Dead Cashier’s Desk and Taken Possession of Papers Re- lating to the Senator's Trial. ' PHILADELPHIA, April 12.—-In the trial of ex-Senator Quay yesterday his lawyers began what is regarded as the all important contention in their fight for his ' acquittal—namely, that the books of the broken People’s bank are not competent testimony against the accused man and therefore should not be admitted in evidence. On the de- cision of this point rests the entire fab- ric of the prosecution's case. Should Judge Biddle decide the point well tak- en the commonwealth’s case will neces- sarily collapse. In order to secure the most effective presentation of this, phase of the de- fense Mr. Quay brought to his aid the skill of David T. Watson of Pittsbu‘rg, one of the ablest attorneys in Pennsyl— vania and ranking in fact with the best in the country. Mr. Watson spoke on his subject for nearly two hours and had the almost breathless attention of a room filled with the legal lights of the local and state bar. Many of these law- yers expressed the opinion that Mr. W'atson made a very strong argument. What its effect will be upon the judge remains to be seen. " The district attorney opened the pro- ceedings in this phase of the case by offering in evidence the books of the bank extending over a number of years and along with them the account books, letterpress book and letters from Sena- ' tor Quay and State Treasurer Haywood found in the desk of Cashier Hopkins after that official had committed sui— . cide. He read a fang summary of what : the books and papers showed and stated a what he expected to prove by them—t0 Iwit, that through a conspiracy with ‘ Cashier Hopkins, State Treasurer Hay- wood and other state treasurers and possibly other officials of the bank Sen— ator Quay used a certain fixed amount of state money deposited in the institUo tion and received interest on another fixed portion of the state deposit. Mr. Watson contended, that the mere , fact that bank clerks with no personal ‘knowledge of the truth of what they were writing entered certain figures in a book, which figures purported to rep- resent interest paid to Senator Quay, . was no proof that the money had been received by him or that there had been . any intention to pay it to him. This ar— gument is in line with the defense's con- tention that Mr. Quay was the victim of Hopkins, who used the senator's name to cover up his own illegal transactions. Mr. Watson also attacked the indict- ment, declaring it to be fatally de- fective. ‘ If Judge Biddle decides the books of the bank are admissible, Mr. Qua-y’s lawyers will next take up the memoran- dum books and letters belonging to Hopkins and oppose their ‘consideration .as valid testimony. 4’ Previous to the presentation of the ‘bank books by Mr. Rothermel the ex- amination of Receiver Barlow was con— cluded, and ex-Judge James Gay Gor- don, who, the adherents of Senator Quay declare, they term the conspiracy against their favorite, gave testimony in corrobora— tion and explanation of Mr. Barlow’s statement. Mr. Barlow created 'a sensation by the statement that he had broken open the dead cashier’s desk and taken there— from the books and letters appertain- ing’ to the Quay trial at the behest of a mysterious informant, who spoke to him over'lthe telephone from Harrisburg to steal the compromising documents i that night. He was, he Said, never able to learn who his mysterious friend was. I The fact was gleaned from Mr.'Barlow lthat the bank books and letters were F practically in the control of Judge Gor- year. He considered this proper, as udge Gordon was the confidential ad— . viser of President McManes of the bank. Judge Gordon gave his testimony in a Iquiet, convincing manner. He depre— cated the stories of conspiracy against Senator Quay that have been persist- ently put in circulation and frankly , answered every question asked regard- ingthe use he made of the papers while he had them; He admitted that they had been photographed at "his sugges- tion. but merely for purposes of safety in tl‘. event of the 'originals being de- stroyed. He also admitted showing them to David Martin, the leader of the anti-Quay faction; to John W'anamak- er, a bitter opponent of Senator Quay, and to others, including a partial ex- hibition of letters to James M. Guffey, the Democratic leader of this state, but not in the manner hinted at by the de- fense. Judge Gordon asked permission of the judge to make a statement of his con—' nection with the case, but the entire array of Quay counsel objected instant- ly, and what would have undoubtedly proved interesting reading was thus shut off.» ' Illegal Pension Draining. LYONS, N. Y.. April 12.—Mrs. Robert Reynolds of Alton is under arrest here, charged with drawing a pension as the ; widow of James Perce, a civil war vet- 3Robert Reynolds for the past three 3 years. Those who had to do with the vouchersvin the pension matter, includ- ing the magistrate before whom these vouchers were executed quarterly, it‘ is stated, will have to answer for false certification. ~ No Indictlnent Found.

He Tells the Beef Court That the » BeehWas Good. WASHINGTON, April 12.—Major Gen- ":ral Shafter,rwho conducted the cam- )aign against Santiago, was the prin- zipal witness before ‘the beef inquiry ooard yesterday; His statements dif- fered little from his testimony before the war investigating committee. He said he ate canned roast beef cold and tound‘; not disagreeable. The refrig- erated beef was as fine as any he had ever eaten. lack of food had only themselves to blame. If there had 'been mistakes, congress, which provides the rations and clothing of soldiers, was responsi— ble. He admitted that_he had never heard of canned roast beef before the war. While it 'was not very palatable in the tropics, he thought it would be very good in a cold climate. Some of the Pennsylvania volunteers gave direct testimony as to the tainted character of the refrigerated beef and the canned roast beef. One of them testified that beef aboard the Mississippi had mag- gets in it. General Shatter sneered at Colonel Roosevelt's complaints of the food fur— nished to the Rough Riders and inti- mated that if supplies for Roosevelt’s regiment were short it was the fault of the officers. . Sensation at the George Trial. CANTON, 0., April 12.—Counsel for the prosecution in the trial of Mrs. Annie E. George for the murder of George D. Saxton created an immense sensation yesterday by making known that wit- nesses for the state were the objects of intimidation. Surprise was general when it became known that the alleged interference is charged against one who is in a sense an official of the court and whose neutrality both sides had a right to expect. Sheriff Zaiser is greatly in- censed at the affair, and if the charges are sustained there will be a vacancy in his staff if contempt of court pro- ceedings are not taken. The Glass Blowers’ Strike. BRIDGETON, N. J., April 12.—Some of the glass blowers who went out on strike from the factories are leaving to take places at the union factories in other cities. It is expected that by the end of the week at least 150 will have left. President Hayes says he hasplen- ty of applications and that most of the striking blowers will be provided with places. Everything is orderly. The Cumberland factory is the only one in operation here, but the Cohansey com- pany is getting ready to start up. The companies have agents out endeavoring to employ blowers. ~_—-— The Stars and Stripes In Africa.

The purpose of the cruise is to show the United Statesflag'to the people in Africa. Leased by 'Nen' York Capitalists. KINGSTON, N. ,Y., April 12.—The plant of the Diamond Truck company here has been leased by a company of New York capitalists and will be used for the manufacture of autotrucks and automobiles. Former State Banking Su- perintendent Charles M. Preston of the Diamond Truck company will be one of the directors of the new company. Two hundred men, it is said, will be em-- ployed. - The Postofllce Deficit. WASHINGTON, April 12.—The actual expenditures of the postal service dur- ing the quarter ended Dec. 31 last amounted to $25,359,615. The actual re- ceipts for the same period were $24,771,- 706, or a deficit of $588,000. This indi- cates an increase of nearly 8%, per cent in the income over the same period of the preceding year and only about 2 per cent increase of expenses. , Railway Strike Imminent. TORONTO, April 12.—Unless the de- mands of the locomotive engineers and firemen on the Grand Trunk railway are met there is every probability that a strike will be inaugurated shortly.
