Quay Seated Over Opposition In Pennsylvania Row
The Philadelphia Press notes the Pennsylvania legislature declined to reelect Senator Quay, leaving the seat open and Governor Stone appointing Quay. A 132-member protest signs against seating him as precedents clash with minority support and past rejection. Separate items report election irregularities in Philadelphia and a Cuban distrust cited by a local official as the presidential message awaits. The jury wheel for 1000 names was filled, with nine-tenths of the 2 006 names repeating from prior wheels.
