THE TARIFF HAD THE LEAD.
Ia saw that probably twice as many

hi and were willing to drop the latter for
tba ' sake of passing the former He had
erot+en 50 tired of advising the leaders that
Pa determined to simply take the lead him
sef He has done so with good promise OF
success. Naturally enough the leaders are
crowling because they we're SET aside, ana
those ike Senators Hoar and Spooner, who
were tie special advocates OF the force Dill,
are III a state or hlgn lndlgna'
tion but they cannot do more
iran the delay the contamination
of Senator Ouays plan. knowing this,
Senator Quay was quite willing to let his res
olution 90 with all the other propositions to
limit de bate to the committee on rules unit IL
the republican caucus could determine more
tomorrow night Just how 1t VIII back down
to Senator Quay's position.
One of the charges made against Senator
QUAY by Senators Hoar, Spooner and the
other indignant representatives Is that he
never attended the meeting of the party
caucus. They say that he manifests as
muca indifference to the caucus as to the
regular business of the Senate. They say
he only mingles in the affairs of the Senate
TO meddle, as in the present instance. Sena-
tor Qlay does not feel any Difference to the
average caucus, whi h he thinks a great
waste of time but he attends whenever he
tliaks it worth while, and will probably
attend tomorrow night to see that his reso-
luton gets consideration.
PROMISES TO BE A SURPRISE.
The caucus promises to be as much of q
surprise for Senators Hoar, Spooner and
the rest of the force bill men as Senator
Quay's resolution was for Senator Aldrich
and the other tariff bill men who want the
force bill dropped to save the tariff. They
will probably join Senator Quay's contin-
gent openly. They have already done so
secretly and will aid in digging the grave
Of the force bill. Just what shape the
actioa will take is problematical, but it will
Substantially agree with the resolution,
although for the sake of appearances they
may adopt different form
SAVAGE SPEECHES.
Senators Hoar, Spooner and their fol-
lowers VIII probably say some savage
things about the way Senator Quay has
exposed the wide rent in the republican
SIDE, Uut there is no reason to believe that
they caa get Senator Hoar's force bill
amendmen, tackled on. The Edmunds mo-
tlon and the Hoar, Blair and other PROPOSE
tlons to change the rules will probably also
D. discussed, but if Senator Quay's resolu-
uol Is Substantially adopted there will be
10 need OF adopting even the most diluted
form Of Reedsm.
