By others Casey aud Dolph were substi-
tinted for Cullon aud Sawyer among the
IL. As to the fact that Hoar's amendment
was Defeated there Is now no question.
Having accomplished this, which he felt
to be everything, Qaay was willing to lot
the Force bill people down essy.
THREE rLASs OF suRRENDER.
He does not care which OF the three
plans suggested shall be adopted
whether the rules committee shall report
tie Quay resolution with an amendment
liking come day next session for the
Force bill, or shall report the Quay reso-
luton and permit Hoar to amend II in
the Senate by fixing some day next session
for the Force b II, or whether the more
subtle plan shall be adopted of simply
concluding an agreement with the Demo-
Gratis by which the Force bill will be de-
bated for little while after the Tariff
bill shall have been disposed Of, aud then
be allowed to go over till next session.
The Democrats, however, will insist on
binding contract 10 writing before they
will allow tho Force bill to be so much
as considered. They are quietly and
contentedly looking on.
WASHINGTON, d. o., Aug. 17.-Quay
may not press his resolution TO vote in
open session, after all. He is satisfied
that the Force bill is buried; that the
programme OF his resolution will BIO car
ried out, and he does not care to expose
the humiliation OF the Force bill senators
publicly, If it is not necessary. lie Is
very apt to concede what Hoar, Sp0oner
and the other Force bill senators are said
10 have asked, that he let his second
resolution sleep with his first resolution
In the rules committee, and allow the
Force bill to come no after the Tariff bill
for two or three speeches only, thsn TO
be postponed until next session. Hoar
would prObbaly abandon the second eau
Gus movement upon receiving this con-
cession.
Il must be kept in mind that. so far,

made no bargain with Quay or any one

They still hold that view, and, whill
they are not talking much, am in a pc
