WASHINGTON, d. c., August 20
Senator Spooner, who assumed the task
of making the fight for the force bill,
confessed to your correspondent to-
night that it had no chance OF passing
at this session. He said: Frankly,
say to you that in my opinion the Quay
resolution will be adopted and that will
lay aside the election bill. | do not in
tend to relax my efforts because of that
conviction. My party is pledged to the
passage of the election bill and ! mean
to fight for it to the last, but Quay will
beat us
After several remarks connected with
the subject, Senator SpoOner added:
'Iobserve that Quay has suddenly
won the good opinion of the Democratic
press. Only several weeks ago they de-
nOunced him as u thief; now they pro-
claim him a statesman
This last remark Of Spooner's shows
how the radical Republicans feel to-
wards Quay.

One of the conspicuous figures on the
floor OF the convention to-day was Cap
tain T. B. Doverner, of Wheeling. The
Captain hustled around with all the
activity OF an ambitious statesman, who
saw the glittering Congressional prize
in his grasp, and appeared Serenely uu-
conscious that there was such a person

Hubbard, however, hustled somewhat
himself \ portion OF Captain Dove
ner's apparent enjoyment many have
been due To the fact that the recently
appointed delegates TO the Congressional
convention from Doddrdge county are
reported to-day TO be solid for him. The
Captain has tremendous following
among the old soldiers of the district,
and the strength with which he will 90
into the convention will cause his OPP
pouentS TO open their eyes.
