QUAY'S EXPLANATION
GIVEN AT LAST IN THE UNITED

Charges Against Him EmphaticaIly De-

WASHINGTON, Feb. ,E.-In the senate
at 4:5O p. m. Senator Quay rose to a
question of privilege and desired to
make reply or refutation of some of
the charges made against him through
the newspapers.
"The field of the malign efforts, said
Mr.. Quay, have been the entire Union.
The assaults were of character so
monstrous as largely to carry with them
their own refutation. Were it otherwise

stituents permit me, to remain mem
Der of the senate. -T4
Partly through indifference to SLAM
der, a weapon which has never had a
place in my political arsenal. and partly
by the advice of friends, who urged me
to treat the assassins Of reputation as
undeserviGg of open controversy, l have
permitted without comment, the passage
of the food of falsehood. Its malodorous
waters chance at this time to be
euiescent and now when no heated po-
itical conflict is raging, when neither
hope nor fear can be deemed the inspira-
tion of my. utterance, I choose, briefly,
to confront accusation with truth.
Mr.. Quay then took-kp each accusa-
ton and briefly explained his connection
with the transaction or denied that he
was connected Herewith at all. His
explanation occupied about half an hour.
