they will have to jump" Hiscook has
had to endure great pressure fro'o
tho President, from the men ~ rev
York whom Reed, through Bslden,
stirred up against hun. aud from the
Force bill senators directly, but 30 far
he has stood arm.
Eyarts has been brought to support the
Forca bill and oppose Quay by promise
Of administration assistance In his at
tempt to secure n reelection, together
with whatever influence Bslden has or
may have. II has been pointed out to
him that this is this only possible chance
he has, and IL is stated that at an inter
view with this President this morning he
promised active, aggressive opposition TO
Quay. Reed stuck TO the House pretty
closely to-day, experimenting little
"Bob" Kennedy of Ohio, so as to get sig
natures from Republicans TO pledge to
stay here till tho Force bill shall have
been passed. Reed mado mistake iu
selecting Kennedy TO pass the pledge
around, for 1t made both Representatives
and senators wild, and really helped Quay
by creating reaction in the House IN
favor OF Quay's movement. Up at tho
White House Harrison was laboring, not
only with Evatts but with everybody else
who came near him, against Quay and for
the Force bill.
Quay sat most OF the afternoon in the
Republican cloak-room, quietly smoking
and talking with Jones OF Nevada, Gam
eron and others of his allies. He had
done most OF his preliminary work, and
was Just waiting for tomorrow, when. he
says, he will call up his resolution and
press II. On this, AS on everything else,
he will maintain policy Of mastery
silence. Unlike Hoar and his lies, Quay
has not prepared q speseh, and Will only
reply IL he IL forced to do SO. The Demo
Gratis, regarding this AS q Republican
family quarrel, will also keep silent
unless they see particularly good
chance to make point, and will let the
Republicans fight 1t out.
The Republican msjcrity in tine Senate
Is 10, bat for effective purposes, Stan
ford (who Is in Europe), Chandler and
Farwell (who are very ill), and Pettigrev
Whose wife ia so Ill that he had to 90 tC
her homeJ must be counted out. Thii
leaves only six majority ii every Repub-
liesn senator can be gotten aud kept here.
Now Quay claims to have six Republican
votes besides his own which cannot be
gotten away from him, bcsides six oil
seven moro which might be- considered
more or less doubtful. So Quay appears
to bs still master of The situation.
1t is imposs be to eIpress the DISCUS
of Harrison, Reed and Hoar at this fact
/ II is bad enough to have to tolerata Quay
and apologies for him, they say, bat tC
be bossed by him Ia simply inexpr. ssible
Bat they will not foraet, and they will
