This article appears in Volume V22, Page 724 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: PYR-RAY
QUAY, MATTHEW STANLEY (1833-1904) , American political " boss," was born in Dillsburg,
York
  county,
Pennsylvania
 , on the 3oth of September 1833. He graduated at Jefferson College (now Washington and Jefferson College) in 185o and was admitted to the bar in 1854. He served in various capacities in the Civil War, and in 1865-1867 was a member of the- state
House
  of Representatives, becoming secretary of the commonwealth in 1873-1878 and again in 1879-1882, recorder of Philadelphia in 1878-1879, and state treasurer in 1886-1887. He was chairman of the Republican national executive campaign committee in 1888, and was a member of the United States Senate in 1887-1899 and again in 1901-1904. For nearly twenty years he dominated the government of
Pennsylvania
 , and also played a very prominent
part
  in national affairs. In 1899 he was brought to trial on a charge of misappropriating state funds, and, although he was acquitted, the feeling among the reform
element
  in his own party was so
bitter
  against him that the legislature was dead-locked and his re-election was postponed for two years. He died on the 28th of May 1904.
