All Were by Acclamation— When the case was resumed this morning, fourteen witnesses were placed on the stand to testify to the good character borne by the defendant. The closing addresses Were then made, by Attorney John T. Lenahan for the defense and by Attorney Williams for the prosecution. The address of Judge Wheaton to the jury occupied about 20 minutes. He reviewrd the testimony in the case and read the points of law. He made it very clear to the jury that in order to find the defendant guilty of embezzlement, it must be clear to their minds that he had actually taken money belonging to the company jind had not refunded the same; also that they must glean from the evidence whether or not there was an intent to embezzle. The judge also told the jury that they might find defendant guilty on the indictment, which included three charges; that they might find him innocent of the three charges; or that they might find him guilty on one or two of the charges and Innocent of the others. At 12:30 the jury retired. gested for President. All Conjecture. The Platform. Many of the depositors stood before the bank all night and were joined before daylight by others. The bank an nounced the enforcement of thirty days' notice for the withdrawal of savings and time deposits, which shut out a large uuinber of those in the waiting throng. The removal of this mass of papers is considered by those closely connected with the investigation us a serious blunder on t|ie part of Captain Portel of the Secret service, Porter i? said to have known nothing about - tht departure of these bundles of paperrand documents. New York. April 20.—State Superin tendeut of Insurance Hendricks, former Attorney General Knox, counsel for the Prick investigating committee, and Henry C. Prick, chairman of the so called Pl'lck committee, were hi conference here regarding Equitable assurance matters. Nothing in the way of a statement was issued after the sessions, but it was understood that the men in conference had agreed to combine In the Investigation. Tokyo, April 28.—The imperial navy department beyond saying no battle has been fought between Admirals Togo and ltojestvensky will give no information about the outlook, and It is impossible to learn anything of tilt Japanese plans for a sea tight. It in very well known that the heavier lighting machines are off the south coast oj Formosa and that the main torpedo boat fleet is in Keluug harbor, the most extreme northerly port on the island. What Admirals Frlu and Kataoka are doing Is wholly a matter of conjecture, but there is good ground for the statement that Kaniimura Is well down the China sea and that the tirst report of a battle will come from him. Glenwood Springs, Colo.. April 20.— President Roosevelt's hunting trip has been crowned with success far beyond his expectations or those of the- most sanguine of his guides. Three bears were killed by the party yesterday and two Monday, one by the president and one by Dr. Lambert. 1'. B. Stewart of Colorado Springs, one of the president's hunting companions, has arrived here, accompanied by Courier Chapman. They brought the story of the hunt. The killing of the three bears was telephoned to them, and they understood that President Roosevelt brought down two of them, but the details are lacking. Harrisburg, Pa., April —The Hepublican state convention, held this morning in the opera house, was a very quiet affair. The prearrange# programme was carried out to the letter. All of the nominations were made by acclamation, as follows: Tilt* arrival of the $2,000,000, coupled with tin- statement of a clearing house committee that the assets and collateral of the bank had been carefully examined and that tin? bank was perfectly solvent and with a posted notice from the directors that tin- bank was abundantly able to meet ali its liabilities, convinced the waiting depositors, mostly working people, that they had nothing to fear. Practically the only documents it the possession of the grand jury whicl bear upon the packing business are the six trunks full of books and papers be longing to the Aetna Trading company and whatever ledgers and accounts may be produced by the cashiers ami vice presidents of four banks win have been subpoenaed to appear be fore the inquisitorial body. These doc umeuts concern only the sausage casings branch of the packing business. For state treasurer—Representative J. Lee Plummer, of Hollidaysburg. For Superior court judges—Judge Charles E. Rice, of Wilkesbarre, Judge George H. Orlady, of Huntingdon, and Judge James A. Beaver, of Bellefonte. Mr. Hendricks gave them some plain information. According to a man in his confidence, he said to Mr. Prick and Mr. Knox: The name of Judge Rice was proposed by Attorney Daniel A. Fell, of Wilkesbarre. Hon. T. V. Cooper, of Delaware county, was the permanent chairman of the convention. "If you gentlemen believe that the insurance department will join with anybody In making a whitewashing report you have been misinformed. Tlif biink of the Milwaukee Trust company, of which Bigelow was a director until the discovery of his defalcations, was also surrounded at an early hour by depositors. Assurances from the directors that the trust company had met with uo loss finally inspired the depositors with confidence. The party is almost snowbound iu its present location, and 110 attempt will be made to cross the divide. Fifteen feet of snow Is on the ground on the other side, and any effort to reach Kedstonc would be futile. The hunters are satisfied, however, for they have reached the center of what the guides say is the best bear country in Colorado. Bobcats are thick in the country now being hunted—so plentiful, in fact, that many are allowed to escape without a shot being fired in their direction. Several fine skins have been taken, however.. Every ship in his fleet went into drydock after the fall of Port Arthur, and not one of his cruisers has less than nineteen knots speed. Some of then) can make as good as twenty-one and will be able to tight the Russian squadron or keep away from it if necessary. Kami in ura's ships probably average seven knots an hour more speed than the Russians', so that he is master of the situation in this respect and may strike when he pleases. The platform contains a genera! indorsement of the national administration, a reaffirmation of the party's devotion to the principles of protection, a commendation of the national foreign policy and general administration of McKlnley and Roosevelt, a general recommendation of the official action of the Republican senators and members of Congress from Pennsylvania, an approval of the attitude of the Republican party toward the veterans of our several »'ars and an assurance of the continuation of that policy in the future so far as the necessities may demand as to pension legislation.
