PHILADELPHIA, April 22.—Matthew Stanley Quay was yesterday declared by a jury of his peers to be not guilty of the charge of conspiring to use fOI his own unlawful gain and profit the funds of the state of Pennsylvania de- posited in the People’s bank of this city This verdict was announced by the f01eman of the jury just as' the hands of the court1oom timepiece pointed to 11 o ’clock. At the time the juzy came. filing intc their‘ipiaces there were compaiatively few people in the courtroom. The rigid rules regarding admission that have prevailed since the tiial began were strictly adhe1ed to, and no one got by thé‘dine of n atchmen guarding the cor- iidOI‘ who was not provided with a ticket. As a result of this arrangement only about half the seats were occu- pied when the verdict was rendered. There was an attempt at a demon- stration, but this was sternly repressed by the court Officers, whose loud shouts of “Order, order, Silence!” were ef- fective in silencing those jubilant spir- its whO Wished to give vent to their satisfaction by cheering. The Officers were unable, however, to keep back those who struggled to get to Senator Quay and congratulate him. Chairs were upset, tables were brush- ed one side, and hats were smashed by the onrushing .crowd. Senator Quay, with a broad smile on his face, responded pleasantly to the greetings and congratulations of those who crowded around. A few of his po— litical friends were there, and these men were loud and sincere in their ex- pressions. When the jurymen had taken their .seats in the box, the senator turned and faced them. The stereotyped “How say you, gen- tlemen of the jury? Do you find the prisoner at the bar guilty or not guil— ty?” brought promptly from the fore- man’s lips the words “Not guilty,” and at this point Senator Quay flushed and seemed momentarily as if about to be overcome by the feeling of emotion that was surging over him. This was only for aninstant, howev- er, and he was his imperturbable self again as he smilingly responded to the congratulations that were being heaped upon him. Senator Quay did not look at the jury at all, or in any way express gratitude to them for their verdict in his favor. His only comment on the verdict was, “Well, I expected it.” Governor Stone Appoints Quay. HARRISBURG, April 22.——Shortly after noon Governor Stone appointed Matthew Stanley Quay as senator, to serve until the next 'session of the leg- islature. The appointment is addressed to the president of the United States, and it is stated in the letter to be made under the authority of clause 2 of sec- tion 3 of article 1 of the Constitution of the United States. “7113' the Somers Failed. BOSTON, April 22.--An Official of the German navy department says the United States torpedo boat Somers, purchased in Germany before the war and now on its way to New York on board the Atlantic Transport line steamer Manhattan, after the boat had suffered a series of mishaps, contains a number of novel features, Of which the agents of the United States were in- formed when she was purchased at the Schichau yards, and he is of the opinion that the experimental features fully ex— plain the Somers‘ failure. International Fair at 'ienna. VASHINGTON, April 22.—The Unit- ed States department of agriculture has received notice that an international agricultural machinery fair will be held in connection with an exhibition of breed— ing and domestic animals and indus- trial and racing horses.

Instructionst of President McKinley othe Court. ‘ WASHINGTON, April 22.——The Wade ' court of inquiry devoted yesterday’s session to reviewing testimony and last night held another session for the pur- beef investigation. ing inquiry which were delivered to the members of the court on Feb. 20 last. These instructions were read by Colo- nel Davis in order to make them a part of the record and are as follows: “The character and quality of the shipped to the soldiers, if good when shipped, what the cause of its deteriora— tion, if any? If the meat was doctored, his officers have any knowledge of it or means of knowledge? Was it the meat of Commerce? Was it inspected by the government inspectors as providedrby law? W'as it an authorized ration in the army? If good when purchased, what made it bad? Was it anybody’s neglect or fault, and if. so, whose? VVhemunfit for use, if you should so find, was the fact made known to the If, after leaving the depot commissary, it was not cared for and properly pre- served, whose fault? Was it a suitable Porto Rico? Was there anything bet- ter that was practicable? W'ould it have been prudent for our troops to have made the expeditions to Santiago and Porto Rico without the preserved meats, either refrigerated or canned, with which they were supplied? Could the army with any certainty rely upon the cattle on the hoof on those islands? Did the commanding officers in Santia— go or Porto Rico or the major general commanding report during the war that either the refrigerated or canned beef was an unfit ration? When were these reports first made and by whom? If the allegations of the major general commanding are established, I want the court to find the cause and fix the re— sponsibility for the fact, that the guilty may be properly punished. Did the cat- tle in Porto Rico make a. wholesome ration? If the packers of the country are guilty, it must be known. If the 0f— ficers of the commissary department are guilty, it must be known. If any officer of the army is guilty, it must be known.” CARLISTS IN CUBA. Trying to Enlist Men to Redeem Spain.
