WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington, D. C. Oct, :. 1901

Washington, D. c. Oct, 7, 1891.
The recent developements in the
State of Pennsylvania, the most i'm
portant of which is the action of Gov.
ernor Pattison in calling a special ses.
sion OF the Senate to investigate the
scandals surrounding the fiscal and
revenue departments of the keystone
State, and conduct Of Thomas Mccain.
ant the Auditor General, and Henry
X. Boyer the Treasurer, have caused a
great deal of talk and comment among
the people in Washington. The Re-
publican officials here, wHo are high in
party councils, are being criticized in
unmeasurable terms for assisting to
keep Quay at the head OF the party in
Pennsylvania and thus maintaining
Quay methods in the administration
OF affairs in the State. To say that the
Republicans who have the best inter
ests of the party at heart are thoroughly
disgusted with the management of al.
fairs in Pennsylvania by the corrupt
gang in charge there now, is putting it
very mildly. They are more than dis
gusted and they are mad, and hope
fhatthe rascally gang may be thoroughly
exposed and punished for their misdo-
aegs, for the sake Of saving the Repub.
lican party from going to pieces on the
rocks for which Quay and his hench.
man are steering the party now.
All self-respecting and honest Re.
PaNicans in Washington feel that it is
not possible for the Republican party,
under the leadership of Quay and the
influences surrounding him. to avoid
defeat in Pennsylvania this year. In
fact, they are of the opinion that the
defeat of the Republican party in
Pennsylvania this year would be God
send. Defeat this year, they argue,
would tend to purify politics in the
State, and give the honest Republicans
and independent voters an opportunity
to win in the future. They say that
the election of the Republican candi-
dates for State Treasurer and Auditor
General this year will only perpetrate
and strengthen Quay's power and en-.
danger the party in the future. In the
language Of the New York Recorder,
one of the strongest administration pa
pers IN the country" Republicans every
where are becoming ashamed Of Penn
sylvania because Of the corruption ex.
isting in the party m management."
When "Honest John Bardsley, City
Treasurer Of Philadelphia, was arrest
ed and convicted of embezzling sever.
al hundred thousand dollars of money
intrusted to his care by the State,
everybody was astounded. But when
they learned that two Of the highest
State officials were as deep in the mire
as Bardsley was in the mud, they threw
up their hands in horror, and wanted
to see the honor Of the State restored.
They want to see the corrupt gang
punished and every honest Republican
in Washington, If he had vote in
Pennsylvania, would cast his ballo,
against the machine ticket this fall. /,
is true the gentlemen who are nov
seeking the offices Of Auditor Genera
ard State Treasurer, are not charged
with corruption. But a,e they not ths

Special to THE MORNING c..n

New YORK. Feb. 9-Our lent is being
made memorable to us by new cult, note
worthy in itself and doubly noteworthy be-
cause OF its introducer. In these days that
are called days of Anglomania the first signs
of revival of interest in Americanism are
sure to arrest attention, the more so when it
is known that in the quieiest and yet in the
most intelligent and earnest way Mrs.
Cleveland has given the impetus to the
movement.
Many people have called the young
woman who regned SO brilliantly in the
White House typical American, fair and
shining example of the results of American
education and training. Certain it is that
she is an American in faith in her own
country, her pride in it and loyalty to it,
and her loving interest in its traditions
Most people who know Mrs. Cleveland well
are aware that the American spirit is strong
in her, and few of her friends will be sur
prised to know that she has personally in
vited TO New York and introduced TO New
Workers an eminent apostle of American
ism, through whom she will influence her

cuss not Burke's Peerage and the Almanacn

of the glorious American past, sharers in the
fruitful American present and responsible

glad promise OF the Am ericau future.

What 1t Costs Harvard Students for The
Athlatic Rssnciatinns


BosToN, Feb 1.-THE Harvard STU
dents Treasurer for the Athletic Fund,
William Hooper, has just made his annual
report for the college year of 18S9-9O. The
amount which the Harvard students spent
to get the benefits of a healthful athletic
training seems 10 be very great. The
amount is S32,2 This amount does mol
include, of course, the sums which the COL
lege corporation itself appropriates for the
maintenance of athletics. Mr.. Hooper in
lis report thinks this large amount spent
by the students can be reduced by economy
and careful management.
The particulars of this expenditure are in
teresting. They are, roughly, as follows
