fairly got TO work, Senior Quintans is bound to
make his influence felt
Yesterday Senior Quintana threw small
bombshell into the meeting OF the Congress-
when the minutes OF the meeting OF six weeks
ago. at which Mr.. Blaine was elected Presi-

election was unanimous Quintana caused
some embarrassment by calling atten-

language except Spanish.
