The great battle for United States senator ended today without on election and unless Governor Stone calls an extra session , at which there should bo an election , I'ennsjlvanla will have only ono representative in the United States scniito during the next two years. After the taking of the ballot In Joint con vention a motion was offetcd by Mr. Tow , democrat of Philadelphia , and adopted that a vote of thunkn bo tendered the olllcers and that the convention adjourn slue die. The legislature will adjourn finally at noon tomorrow and under the law the joint con vention must assemble nt that hour , hence todaj's motion to adjourn finally. There was no change In today's voting , the friends of ox-Senator Quay btandlng by him and the anti-Quay republicans by B. T Jones of Plttsburg. while the democrats cast tholr votes for George A. Jenks , who has been their candidate since the deadlock began. The senatorial contest began on January 17 On that d.iy Senator Quay received his highest vote , 112 senators and repre sentatives casting their ballots for him. This was thirteen less than the number necessary to a choice and he never came nearer an election during the moro than three months of the struggle. No such bitter political contest wis probably ever before waged In this countrj' . The fight has been distinctly on Quay and anti-Quay Hues and both sides had numerous repre sentatives hero at all times , keeping a close watch on the members and on each other. Both sides promise that the contest for supremacy will be carried into every county in the state and waged incessantly until final supremacy is assured. The next fight will bo on the chairmanship of the state committee. After that will come the battle for the control of too state convention , which will nominate a candidate for state treasurer. The Nyco resolution , calling upon the attorney general to prosecute all those , Including et-Sonator Quay , who had been charged with receiving Interest on state money , almost precipitated a riot In the senate. It was a bitter fight between two factions and finally the resolution was laid on the table by a vote of 33 to 6. The first speaker was Senator Gradj ( Quay ) . Ho had scarcely begun his ipccch before Mr. Henry ( anti-Quay ) do- "A Rolling Stone Gathers No Moss. " This is merely another 'way of saying that careless men and women fail to get what is due them.

He asserted that there was no occasion to Instruct the attorney general. Following Mr. Orady came Mr. Brown of Lawrence , lie wild there was but one truth ful sentence In the whole resolution and that was the line declaring state funds to bo trust funds Tor one , he felt tint the pro ceedings were unprecedented ; that It was monstrous for the legislature to pass Judg ment on n man whoso liberty was at stake In a court of Justice "I have the word of Senator Quay him self , " nald Mr. Brown , "that he never re ceived n cent of Interest on state money and I take his statement as against all the vile libels of the Ijlng , malicious hounds who have been hounding him for jeais. " Mr. Slerrlck of TToga also opposed the resolution and charged that the men flght- lug Mr. Quay were guerrillas nnd that the object of the icsolutton was to prejudice the minds of the Jurors In the Quay cace now in progress In Philadelphia. SoloiiH UxcliaiiKc AV'oriln. The proceedings weie interrupted by one of the most extraordinary scenes ever wit nessed in the senate. Mr Kllnn walked over to Mr. Merrick and glanced over the copy of the resolution To this Mr. Mcr- rlck objected and Mr. Graily remarked : "Why don't jou let the speaker alone ? " "Why don't you mind jour own busi ness ? " said Mr. Flynn , augilly. "That is my business , " rejoined Mr. Grady. "But it Is not , " replied Mr. Fllnn. "You mind your own business , for I will have no Interference from jou. " All this tlmo Lieutenant Governor Gobln , who was In the chair , was rapping for or der. 1'lnally 'he called upon ) /lie / sergeant- at-arms to "prcs'ont himself at the bai- . Thereupon Mr. Fllnn began to walk over to lilr seat. " \Vo will have jou seated , " said Mr. Grady , whose face was crimson from angei- . "But jou can't do that , " was the rep : ? "I don't want to , " said Mr. Grady. "Thai. Is a matter between you and the sergeant- at-arms. " Mr. Fllnn took his seat and Mr. Osbourn nroso and said "I will offer a resolution censuring Mr. Fllnn. I never saw such a scene in my life in the senate of I'eniiBjlvanla. " "Well , offei the resolution , " declared Mr. | I i Fllnn , as ho kicked the drawer of his desk. With this the incident ended , and on mo tion of Mr. Cochran the resolution was tabled. Senator Fllnn then offered a resolution to olend Iho session of the legislature until May I. In his opinion the Icglslaturo had not passed sufficient revenue bills and moreover had failed to elect a United States senator The resolution was defeated by vote of 30 to C and the senate concurred In the house resolution that the hour of final adjournment shall be noon tomorrow. PROSECUTION CLOSES CASE .Suiiiiiuirlrliitv IlrNiiUN of Mm > ) , > N' Trinl | ( SOIMIIM . .Much Di-ix-mlN on Kxpoi-t nnlil PHILADELPHIA , April ' 1J. Unexpect edly to almost ovoiy person interested the prosecution in the trial of ex-United States Senator Quaj for conaplracj closed Its caeu today attur nine days full of niKument , clashes of counsel mid testimony lordly of an expeit nature. The Keneral expression of opinion had been that the trial would draft through many moro days , -nnd when District At torney Hothetmel hpd announced that lie had concluded there vvcro expressions of suipriso The end came nt 2 o'clock , Just ono hour befoio the usual tlmo for ad journment. Judge Hlddlo adjoin ned court hi order that Mr. Quay's atlormtjs might consider what tepfl they would toke U was stated that the question of entering de murrers to the ' prosecution's evidence or proceeding with the taking of testimony will be decided with the defense's counsel tonight From the evldonee already pre sented It Is apparent that the common wealth depends largely for conviction upon the testimony of lt expert , Aloyor Oold- smlth , as to his Interpolations of the ac counts In the "red book" and other books of tbo People's bank nnd upon the Jury's opinions of the books , papers , letters and tt'legraniH and checks offered In evidence. As to what extent the Utulmony of the defense's expert , should ho bo called , may offset Mr. Goldsmith's , remains to bo scon. Thu contention of the defense In argu ment and cross-examination has been that the calculatloas of Mr. Goldsmith are not bcine out by the books , but on the other hand show that Mr. Quay did not use state money nor receive Interest on stale depos its and that whatever loans ho received were made In the customary manner and backed with sufficient collateral. Today's proceedings were devoid of sen sational features. The dry routine of fig ures and Involved explanation * of accounts took up most of the time. Mr Goldsmith's cross-examination was concluded and re direct examination was begun by Mr. Iloth- crmel The points brought out by him were that the caah account and Interest account of the bank were deficient by the omission of certain sums received as interest ; that It was customur ) to designate call loans by Initials Instead of names. Upon the ques tion of Mr. Quaj's Interest In the depoMt account rrom Maj1896 , to October , 1SUT , Mr Goldsmith said. "In JS90. on Juno 23 , thu balanro was J..CC. on November 27 , J2.777 66 : on No vember 28 , again J2-5G ; | u 1897 , on January 7 , DO cents , on October 2C , $10,000.50. on Oc tober D , BO cents , at which It remained un til the end of the month These are all ho vnilntiin * from April > ( > ! 8 < > n to Oc tober 31 , IS" : ' Director of the Mint Ilfnrj K Hoyer was on the stnnd and ftr lesth'jlng to paying interest on October 10 , H07 , on a call loan , asked pertnl slon to make a statement In reply to the district attorney'g allegations In the course of testimony thut he received Interest on stale money while state treas urer from May ISS9 to May , 1SJ11. His request - quest was not allowed , but the court mated all records of replies to those questions went stricken out under the court's rullni ; . Mr. Qoldflinith , the expert accountant for the commonwealth , was called to the stand and his rrosw-etamlnatlon was continued by Mr. Shield * . Iieforo any questions wete asked tbo district attorney paid the defense had agreed to admit HA true certain formal evidence as to the terms ot olllco of state treasurers. This was done to permit Wit nesses summoned from different parts of th" btito lo go hc/mc and to shorten the trial to some extent. Mr Shields , referring lo the allegation of the vv lining that In August , 1S9B , $100,000 of state money was deposited In the People'n bank on which interest waa paid , asked If thete was any entry to show such pajment. Mr. Goldsmith said there waa no single entry. The question waa not pressed any further. The loans of slate money alleged by the witness to have been made to more than fifty persons , nnd on which Interest wn paid , vvni then gone Into. The questions covered n wide line of Inquiry and lesulted In some legal sparring. Mr. Shields drew from the witness that the entries of these I ( Milt did not contain any names of pcrnons , but Dimply Initials. The v\llncss ndmlttra that he hint guessed In some Instances for whom thcso initials stood , and learned ot the otheiH from Information received. H was shown that in moro than one Instance bonowcrs paid moic Inteiest than appeared on the bookM , one man paying $1,16331 In terest , whereas his account was credited with the piijmont of only $32fi , and the balance was not accounted for. This enden tbo co ] \atnlnnton ! nnd the to-direct ex amination began. The dlbtrlct nttoiuey look up the question of the senators deprall account and the transactions in stock on his order. The wltmaj staled there wan little or no con nection Goldsmith was asked to state what the books showed ' Senator Quay's bilance on deposit was at various times between April 30 , IR'IG , and October 31 , 1SU7. lie replied that the 'balance ' ranged from GO cents to $10,00050. AMtncM then ex plained the relation between tbo figures In red book" and the regular books of the bank , and elucidated the figures entered on the page devoted to the state deposit for the hl\ months ending October 31 , 18U7 , which appjicntly show the use of $200,000 of the deposit by Senator Quay and the pajment of Intel rst on the balance. Tuinlng to the page devoted to what Is apparently Hopkins' memoranda of hie pri vate account with Senator Quaj- , the witness explained its tclatlona to ccit.iln entries and omifeslons In the regular bank books. At this point the district attoincy offered a new piece of documentary evidence In the fcliape of a sheet of fool.scap piper contain ing figures In Hopkins' handwriting. The offer was objected to by the defense. The dlslrlct attorney declared that it was in furtherance of proof of the conbplracy and stated that It contained entries of amounts loaned to call loan bonowcrs , ind cilcula- llons of thu interest collected on these loans. It shows , he argued , the scheme adopted bj" Hopkins to cover up the con spiracy to loan stale money for the benefit of the defendant The defense argued that the paper con tained only figures and there was nothing to indicate that it was not fifteen or twenty jears old , as It Is not dated The district attornqy offered to put living witnesses on tbo stand , the call loan bor rowers , who would corroborate the figures. Mr. Watson argued the legal points calculated to exclude the paper. Judge Uiddlo decided that the paper Is evidence against Hopkins and therefore ad mitted as tending to prove the alleged con- spiiacy between Hopkins and Quay. Wit ness Goldsmith has stated that the figures on the paper , which was found In Hopkins' private desk , aided him in arriving at his conclusions icgardlng the whereabouts of certain sums of monej' . The district attorney read the paper to the Jury , promising to explain later the figures entered William A. Hariett , a call loan boi rower from the bank , was sworn. He testified to having paid $1003 interest on or about Oc tober 31 , 1897 , on a call lean made by the bank A long list of other witnesses testi fied similarly. Kx-Statp Treasurer and Presi dent Director of the Mint Henry 1C. Dover testified to paying $30 C7. Mr. Iloyer added sonic life to the otherwise dry proceedings by turning to Judge lilddlo and asking per mission to make a statement concerning chaiges made against him while he was Btate treasurer. Ho fnld : " 1 desire to .oak if I can bo permitted to make answer to the district attorney's alle gations that payment of Interest on state monoj waf > made to me as htato treasuier. " Mr. Ilotlurmol Interrupted by htatlng to the court that all testimony lolatlng to Mr. Hoyer had been stricken out by the court's ruling. It bclnt ; prior to 1S9C. Judge Dlddlo remarked that this was BO and th.it under the circumstances be did not see any icasou for Mr. Uoyor making any statement. Mr Bojer did not pres fo ; the privilege , but before leaving the stand ho i > ald "t simply wanted to explain - plain my position publlclj , as I have been wiougfiilly attacked. " The examination of witnesses who had paid interest on call loans was still in pnigrrsB when n rccetH was taken. After the lecess Gcotgo D Wldencr , son of P. A. II. Wldener , the street railway magnate , and David II. Lane , a prominent republican leader ot this city , testified to paying $3,70130 and $30637 , respectively , ns Interest on call loans. Mojcr Goldsmith was recalled nnd testified to ex-State Treasurer Hey wood and J. W. Moirlson each owing Interest on October 31 , 1S97. The entries in the books , ho said. contained the Initials "n. J " and "J. W. M. " and It was upon this ho based his state ment. Charles II. McKee of Plttsburg , who was arrested on the charge of conspiracy at the same tlmo Senator Quay was arrested , but In whoso case the grand Jury Ignored the charges , waa the next wiliieus. Mr Me- Kee had been counsel for the sureties of many stale treasuries. Ho was asked If ho over received money as attorney for Cashier Hopkins to protect the bondsmen of State Treasuier Hajwood Ho gave an alllrmatlvo reply. In November , 1897 , he received $1,000 , October , 1896. about $2,4no ; about April 30 , ISsSM , about $1,300. No cross-examination. At this point the defense admitted the pay ment of $7774 interest cmn call loan by a Mr Woodruff , who was not present. DIstilct Attornej Holliennel announced that the commonwealth closed. In order that the defense may have an oppoltunlty to prepare Ita opening Judge Diddle adjourned court until tomorrow morning. > M l'n\ fulfill for Mao \ Illc. MAHYVILLI : . MO.

The second of the "ono dollar" Urjan dinners , thnt under the allspices of the worklngmcn , was held to night nt the Grand Central 1'nlnce. The din- nir was not as largely attended ns the ono given by the Chlafo platform democrnis In the same place on' the preceding Saturday night , about 1,500 men nud vviAncn being present. The striking difference between these dinners was the seating of the guests of honor tonight on the platform where they \\ero plainly \lslble to everybodj In the hall. Hack of the speakers , painted on a largo canvas , was the followIng : "A sjstcm of political economy will > et dawn which will perform ns well as promise , which will rain the ilehes of nature Into the laps of the Stan Ing poor. " \V. J. Bryan entered the hall soon after 7 o'clock. Ho was r'cceUed with great ap plause. The speakers wore seated as follows 1'icsldliig Olllcer John Hrlsbln Walker , Mr. Brjan to his right with X. O. Nelson of St. Louis ; Uov. Dr. JJdward McGljnii , Chailei Ficderlck Adams nud John S. Crosbj at .Mr. Bryan's right. At the chairman's left were Mn > or Samuel M. Jones of Toledo , Olhor II. I * . Belmont and William Temple Ummet , great grandson of Hobert Cnitnct. A small orcbpstrn discoursed music from ono of the boxes. There were fourteen va- ant seatH at the guests of houoi table. There were few persons in evening dress and men in well-worn suits of various kinds were numeious. The women , who were about equal In number to the men , sat at the tables on the main Iloor. TniiHtn mill SiirnktTH. The toasts and speakers were as follows "Municipal Ownership of Public Fran chises , " Major S. M. Jones , "What a Just and Economic Sjstem Would Do for Women , " Chailotto Perkins Stetson ; "The Foes Which Beset Movements In the Inter est of the People , " Ilev. Dr. IMwardMcGlynn , "Practical Adjustment of Social Problems , " X. O. Nelson ; "All Government Derives Its Principles from the Consent of the Gov erned , " William Temple Emmet ; "Thomas Jeftcrson , " W. J. Brjan. The menu was of the simplest. It was Vegetable soup , haddock , egg sauce , roast beef , i east turkey , cranberry sauce , pickles , Ice cieatn , cakes an 1 coffee. I.Mr. Brjan was accompanied by Congiess- man W A. Sulzor when ho entered the hall. OHO of the first persons to meet thc-m was Dr McGlynn , who had never before been In troduced to Mr. Bryan. Mr. Sulzer made the Introduction. Next Introduced andery cordial In their greetings were John C. Shee- hau and Bolton Hall. A levee was held dur ing which many hundreds shook Mr. Bryan's hands. Many letters were presented John Brlsbln Walker called the assemblage to order , Dr. .McGlynn saying grace. Judge William J. Gaynor of Brooklyn and Bolton Hall took their scots at the guests of honor table when the dinner was half over. Mr. Brjan rose and bowed to < both , they returning his greet ing In the same way. There was much cheering at this point. Another Incident was when Major Jones discovered Charlotte I'orKlns Stetson in one of the boxes and es corted her 'to tha guests' table. Bryan i changed seats jto' ih'8 ' other side of Chairman L Walker , who gavi 'lifs seat to 'Mra. ' Stetson. Other seats on the floor was also occupied as the last courses were ser\ed , there being 1,750 guests present then. In the course of the dinner Chairman Walker arose and asked all to drink to the honor of "Thesis heroes who , April 9 , 124 I years ago ( battle of Lexington ) , gave up , their lives for that llbertj1 , the danger to I which Is the occasion for your gathering hero tonight. " All rose and drank , while the band played "The Star Spangled Banner. " An oil painting of Jefferson was placed be fore the table of the guests of honor. Chair man Walker Introduced .Mayor Jones of Toledo. Major Jones was cheered. Ilia toast was " .Municipal Owner&hlp of Public Fianchlsos. " He said In part : liiipf rff f tlniiK of Gofrnnifiil. . The impression U ghen to our rhlldien that the thing called government is per fected , there is , therefore , no lesponsibillty for the boy beyond the mere peifunc\toiy \ woik of voting on election daj , of proclaim ing in season and out of season that we luue the best government on earth , and of constantly keeping before the minds of out follow men the assertion that wo "can lick everybody , " but if wo have the best govern ment on earth , which I do not question , it does not necessarily follow that oven that may not be Improved. If wo can "lick everybody , " oven this Is not of necessity the highest ideal toward which n nation may strive. I have no quarrel with the capitalist ; I have no quarrel with the contractor. Under our existing business system it la the bun- incss of the capitalist and contractor to get the best end of the baigaln and to my mind all Inflammatory and denunciatory appeals directed against "tho capitalists , " "tho con- ti.ictors" nml "the money power" are Idle and of no avail. Our warfare Is an unholy sjstem , a system , too , that Is uiibclenllflc as It IH unholy ; a hj-Htcin tlmt hopes to pci- putuate IlKelf through ministering to gieed , a Bystem tlmt IH dally warfare , that IH cal culated to make men hate cadi other , a Bjstcm that makes our pretended democracy a travesty and makes our dally walks n de nial of democracy , and It Is , therefore , treason to the republic In which wo are all professed sovereigns and equals. In every city of this or any other country that has adopted public owneiehlp of Its public utilities , the contiact bystcm and the franchise ttystom will both disappear to gether. 72vory city , 1 say , that has adopted public ownership of public utilities has Bhortened the hourH of labor , increased the pay of the men and Improved the quality of sen Ice. If thu worklngmen and masses nro in economic slavery in charity , It is because - cause they so will it , it Is because preced ing economic sla\ery there has been potty slavery and In every succeeding election the worklngmen of the country have been the dupeH of the schemers who sought to uer\o only their own ends. I hellevo tills Is the beginning of the government thnt la bought and bold and run for rovenuu and the dajs of pretended purtlban hatted have vanished , that worklngmen can no longer bo rallied with the inero Into and cry of "bo a dem ocrat. " or "bo a republican " Let the platform that commands the volca of the worklngmen and reform foircu be definite anil positive for thoeo thlngB that are now essential to liberty , huth os equal opportunities for all , the abolition < > f the contract sjJtcm , the substitution of the eight-hour day and the recognition of or ganized labor in all bkllled departments ; and let us repudiate anj platform that docs not involve every ono of these principles. Major Jones closed amidst a great demon stration. Ho was Intensely dramatic Someone ono called for three cheers for the major. They were given. Then some one called for three cheers for "tho people. " "Yes , " shouted Mayor Jones , leaping to his feet and waving his hands , "cheer not for me. Cheer for the people ! " This brought out great applause. Mrs. Charlotte Perkins Stetson epoko next. Dr. .Vlf < ; i > n" .Sii > nl N. Dr McGIjnn was the next speaker. Ho was slvcn an ovation. Ho said In part : There U today a slavery worse than chat tel slavery.

Nelson of St Louis spoke next and was followed by William Temple Knitnct. Mr Rmniot closed vvllh a reference to Bryan H crealed a tremendous amount of enthusiasm and then followed another demonstration. It continued for some mo ments , and some ono shouted. "God bless yon Billy Boj , " whereat the crowd again got up and jelled and cheered. Mr. Bryan had to raise his hands many tlme before his admirers would give way and they dla so only when tired out. The women par ticularly were enthusiastic in their greet ings. .l > nrrnn Hi-lltM oil In tln > I'roplo. Mr. Brjan , when introduced , paid : Jefferson , was n man of Ideas. Wo ate applj lug his Ideas todaj to the imestlons which uilscs. They were not all applied lu his daj. They hove not all been applied since his daj. Sometimes people think that only on the battlefield can n man show his patriotism. I tliank Uod that 1 live In a land where peace hath her victories as well as war. 1 glorj that wo live in a laud where every daj ptescnts an opportunity for a man to show his love for his country , nnd I tliank God that wo live In this generation where the grandest principles are present that have been presented to any generation nlnce llie history of man began. Thomas Jeflerson believed In tbo people nml ho was the first believer in the people. I appreciate the feais expressed by our toastma tei no ono will deny the evil tend encies ot the times , no one will deny that theio aio abuses so Intrenched In govern ment that It Is difficult to ellslodno them. But as Jefferson believed tn the people wo can believe In the people. The Declaration of Independence condensed into a few sen tences , thu principles which must ever un- drrllo a form of gov eminent Ilku ouis. Mj ntlcullon was called jcstcrday to the language of Abraham Lincoln In the eulogy of the Declaration of Independence. This Is an opinion of the present gathering and 1 want to contribute to the spirit of the occa sion by quoting what the gieat icpubllciiu said of the woik of the gicat democrat. The audience listened Intently as Mr. Brjan lead fiom a volume of Lincoln's Kpccclies. When the speaker said that both Lincoln and Joffcibon were repudiated when the Ueclaiutlcti of Independence was de parted fiom ho was gtcctcdwith great ap plause , lie continued. Jefferson cancel from the mountains of eternal truth the four gicat plllais upon which all free government must icst that all men are created equal , tint they aie endowed wllh Inalienable tights that gov ernments ore instituted among men to se cure and preserve those right ? , and that governments derive their Just powers from the consent of the governed. liomintlit n.\siH ! In Jealous ; . I sometimes hear people complain because business Is disturbed by the agitation of public questions. There Is a waj to ibcupe it. Let us Imvo a monarchy and there will be no disturbance of any kind of business , vcan then simply serve ami bo Imppj. But hlstorj has shown that vvhcic one or a few think for all the people , they also en joy for all the people , and It wo would enjov the right of life and libertj and the pursuit of happiness our life must bo a constant warfare against wrong Jefferson never uttered u truer saying than when ho declared that confidence is the parent of despotism and that fico goveinmetit exists In jealousj ami not In confidence. If you elect n public servant and go to sleep , the danger Is that he nuy become more watchful of his o\\n interests than ot yours , and when I heat people complain thnt our government Is a falluic I geneially find them proposing the wrong icmecly. They say our government is a failure be cause the people cannot bo trusted. I reply that Insofar as our government has been dlbappolnting it is because the people have not had a sufficient share in their own gov- eminent , that the faults of our government He not in the people , but In those who mis represent the virtue and the intelligence of the people. THEORY OF CONQUEST WRONG Olio of Iiiiiiiifr * of IiniifrlaljNiii , SIIJH llrj mi , IN Hint It Will Hurt Alllf I'icMlll IIIIOf. rilESNO , Cal. , April 10. W. J. Brjan has wiltten a letter to the rre jio evening Democrat , giving his views on imperialism. The letter Is as follows Mr. Mark P. Laisted , Ficsno. Cal Deal Sir. In answer to your request for an article on the Philippine question for your paper I regret to say that the pressure of work upon me at this time makes It impossible for me to write at length. Mr McKlnley announced in his Boston speech that the policy of the government respecting the Philippines was In the hands of the Ameilcan people. It Is a question which the people must settle and much de pends upon Its settlement. I thlnU it can be shown from a pecuniary standpoint that It will cost us more to conquer the Filipinos and keep them In subjection than we shall bo able to inako out of the enterprise , and what money does re turn fiom the Philippines will not llnil Its wajto the pockets of those /v ho supply sons for the army and whose taxation fur nishes the sinews of war It alho invites Oriental immigration to compete with Ameri can labor , But there Is a higher view to take of it than the money view. The pilnolplo of con quest is wrong. Our nation has steadily contended against It and It la impossible to calculate the fur-rcathlng effect upon our people of n doctrine that would substitute force for icason In the decimation of the nation's pollcj . Thobo who oppose Imperial ism plead not for the Filipino , but for the A met lean people. Our nation Is sttong enough to do harm , but It ought to bo too great to do wtong , 1 feel confident that the sober second thought of the American people v | | | sustain those who bcllevo that the Filipinos should be tieated lll.e Cubans , namely ( Jl\cn tlii'li independence and protected fiom outside In terference.
