PHILADELPHIA, September 2s.--"l
am in a great hurry and have but few
minutes to spare" said Senator Della
mater when called upon by a reporter.
"What can do for you?"
Then the reporter said that the visit
was for the purpose Of hearing what he
had to say about ex-senator Lewis En-
ery's attack last night at Bradford.
"Well, ! must make the train for
Pottstown, which leaves in a few min
utes. Wait and walk over to the Broad
street station with me-"
Then the Senator hastily ran his eyes
over a number of kilograms handed him
by the clerk, gave few directions As
to replies, and seizing his hat, oyercoat,
umbrella and gripsack, said, looking at
his watch. "Well, now | must be off.
I'll be back late tonight. Have the
letters ready for me when ! return"
WE HAVE PUBLISHED II.
While briSkly walking over to the
Broad street station Mr.. Deamater
said: II suppose you have read Emery's
speech? Well, it contains nothing that
We have not already published. We had
these So-called ailidavits several days
ago, and they have been given to the
public Then he had some persons, y,
Y, u, as he terms the mythical individu-
ais, whom we cannot get at. All OF his
statements are dntirely unsupported.
What must the people think of man
who is charged with trying, by the aid
of money, to induce gentleman to make
an affidavit to support his charges.
That affidavit has been also published.
Emcry's attacks are outrageous, and en-
tirely without truth"
"Do you intend permitting this last
attack to go by without notice.
NO. will answer that tomorrow:
will give il attention in my address and
the papers in the morning will get all
that | say
collector Cooper calls it a conSpi-
racy," remarked the reporter.
That's just what it IS, and nothing
more. There's not word of truth in
any of his charges. His allidayitS are
worthless. We knew exactly what he
intended giving out, and we anticipated
him by the publication Of the ailidayits
upon which he relied to make it appear
that his charges are supported. But |
really don't care to talk about the mat
ter now. 1t is my purpose to give at
tention to it in my address.

the Democratic candidate on any issue.
