ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATCH.1
PHILADELPHIA, June Ex-senator QUAY
braved the city heat to-day on account of
business matters that demanded immediate
attention. In company with his son, Rich
ard r. Quay, he came up from Washington
late Wednesday night and retired immedi-
ately to rooms in the Continental, seeing no
one. Collector Cooper met the Senator
at breakfast in his rooms this morning, and
EI-Collector Martin was almost as prompt.
They later went to the Custom House, and
about noon Mr. Quay called on Mayor
Stuart City Solicitor Warwick was there
also and the conference covered an hour.
Mr. Warwick admitted that they talked
politics, but declined to go beyond that.
81 think Harrison will be elected, said
Nh. Quay. ''He is a growing man before
the people, and his administration is full of
campaign material that the Republicans
will know how to use effectively"
at is the same head as four years ago to
the Democratic ticket" remarked some one
TO the Senator.
That is so, and think the Democracy
have a weak candidate in Mr. Cleveland.
That is to the advantage of the Republicans,
but the fight will hardly begin before
month or so.
Turning to Collector Cooper the Senator
observed: The Farmers Alliance looks
like break in the South, and we have moth
ing to lose down that way. The election
in the Mills district indicates very weak
spot in Texas
when are you going to Brigunt:ne
Beach?''
Not Just vet. / return to Washington
this afternoon. Congress may adjourn
about the middle of July aud then L e1-
pect to try the ocean side awhile"
Ex-Sheriff Kern met the Senator at the
Custom House Just as he was about to take
q cab for an uptown trip. 81 will bet S10,-
900 that Harrison goes through, and ii you
know anyone who wants to lose money
send him around" was part of the greeting
between them.
General Frank Reeder did not meet Mr..
Quay for the very solid reason that he is
out on the ocean sailing, and has been
since Saturday, on his way TO Europe. Gen.
eral Reeder's party comprises his vile, his
sons. Douglass and Frank, Jr., and Mrs. A.
NJ Thompson, mother of Mrs. Reeder and
they do not expect him back in Easton be-
fore September.
The Senator did not come across any of
the State Committee officials either, as he
met enough of the city leaders to help him
out in an understanding of the city legisla-
tive nominations. The list of the candi-
dates will be canvassed at the Brigantine
Beach cottage where the Senator
expects to 30 next Monday ac-
cording TO Dick Quay's statement.
Collector Cooper wiggled a big fan and
looked happy enough in Qray's company.
Cleveland is a weak candidate and stands
on the same old Democratic free trade plat
form, only more So" was his style of sum-
ming up opinion or the Chicago Conven-
tion's work. "What has been done will
make easy business for our side Harrison
will win easily
