New YoRE, Nov. 1.-senator Quay was
at Republican headquarters this morn
ing. He had conference with Vice
President Morton and with Chairman
Carter, General Clarkson and Mr.. Man
ley. After leaving the conference room
Senator Quay was asked to give his
views OF the situation and his opinion
as to the result He said:
~ leave for Philadelphia this after
noon. | possibly may return, but not
necessarily. Coming here on the sug-
gestion OF some OF the gentleman en-
gagged in the management OF the Re-
publican campaign, who thought my
experience in 1883 might be useful in
the solution Of two or three pending
problems. l have gone verv carefully
through the details OF their labor up to
the present time and have canvassed
with them their propositions for the
future. Their administration has been
faultless. Their correspondence satisfies
me that the sentiment OF the countryls
favorable to q continuance OF RepublI-
can rule.
"Mr. Harrison will be elected. 1t is
my belief that he will carry the states
OF New York, Indiana and Connecticut
Existing conditions are such that the
electoral vote OF New York will elect
him without Indiana and Connecticut.
Indiana and Connecticut will elect him
without New York"
NEW YoRK's REGISTRATION.
The Republican national committee
this afternoon gave out an analysis OF
the registry list OF the city Of New
York, which ssys in part:
One OF the most important facts is
that the registration for 1892 below
Fortieth street, or in that part of the
town where the Democrats are specially
strong, is 1901 less than it was in 1888.
Above Fortieth street the registration
this year stands 149, 1858, against l22, 2,3l4,
an increase OF 1908, or 22.12 per cent.
The entire increase in registration,
therefore, is above Fortieth street.
Comparing the registration by assembly
districts, as at present constituted, with
the total vote cast in 1891 in these dis.
tricts, the fact appears that in the die,
tricts casting heavy Democratic MAORI,
ties the increase of the registration
over the vote cast is about 25 per cent,
while the increase in districts giving Q
small Democratic or Republican plu.
rality is about 81 per cent. On the
basis OF the natural increase over the
registration Of 1883. there thould now
be on the registry lists of this city 342,-
900 names.
But there are only S09,sS0, and the
loss lies in the Democratic districts. In
these districts, however, there has been
an enormous amount OF false and illegal
registration.
Undoubtedly as many as ], 800 Demo.
cratic repeaters have been registered.
Indictments are now being prepared
and warrants issued for host Of these
characters.
The Republican county committee,
by comparing their canvass OF the city
with the registry lists, have ascertained
that substantially the full Republican
vote OF the city Is on the rolls. allow
ing for all possible loss, it is reasonably
certain that 1l5,000 Republican votes
will be cast, as compared with 100000
in 1888. The full vote OF the city will
not be many more than 29I000 If the
Democrats obtain 58.5 per cent OF the
total estimated they will be doing un-
commonly well on the situation as it
stands to-day. This will give them
vote OF 10000 and plurality Of 5000.
