ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO TIE DIsPATcH.1
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 2l.-The morning
oapers had barely time to announce the
coming East of Senator Quay on another
business trip. for ne followed the kilograms
bv his arrival at the Continental Hotel,
early this morning, and made himself at
home in his old first-hoor rooms. There
breakfast was served, and his son, Richard
r. QUAY, was the only one present until
toward 10 O'Clock, when personal friends
bepan to send up their cards. The cards
were few in number-not more than dozen,
all told-and the remarkable thing about
them was the fact that not single local
politician was represented in the list OF
callers
Senator QUAY failed to bear in mind that
October 21 was Columbus Day, and there
fore general holiday. He said so, at any
rate.
at was nv intention to go on tonight to
Washington, where my family is in winter
quarters" said the Senator, ''but the holl-
day prevents that, and L may not get down
before late tomorrow"
The Senator's Few Callers.
Among the Senator's visitors were Ham
ilton Disston, who remained some time;
Collector Cooper, General Reeder and Sen
ator II GRACE b. Packer If a conference
took place on the State or national situation
nobody appears to know anything about it.
The various callers came so quietly and got
away so secretly that nothing could be
gained from them about their visit Inc
Senator was onlv a shade less non-com-
initial than is his custom.
'sThev don't need me in New York.
They are getting along very well without
me" was Mr.. Quay's answer to the query
as to his intention of going TO New York.
"They are getting on all right and don't
want me there.
To question as to what he thought OF
the Presidential situation, Mr.. Quay said:
Harrison should be elected, and | say
that he should, but who can tell? My
health has been the cause of much anxiety
to me, and have been unable to give at
tention to political affairs. Scarcely any
thing IN the line OF information concerning
campaign matters comes to me outside oi
what hear from my friends"
''Do You look for Harrison's election?"
Harrison Should BE Reelected.
aHe should be elected, but who can tell?
1 cannot am not in a position to prophesy
events.
DO you intend to visit Chairman
Carter"
"Probably not. don't think will &C
to New York. My physician forbids me to
do thing that would excite or agitate m e,
and must obey orders. During my last
visit here l busted myselfa State head
quarters somewhat, and paid the penalty by
suffering afterward. 1 think l will keep
quiet this time.
The Senator had heard the story about
campaign funds being used in his interes
in the close districts, and regarded it as par
of the light fantastic fiction of the cam

genial chairman appeared to have herculean
obstacles to surmount to ge. any cash fol
regular purposes amused the Senator very
much. In fact he laughed great deal
over the matter because the story was such
funny one that he really could not hell
it,

wish there was one. Republicans are send
ing all their contributions to New Iorl
this year, and l rather guess Chairman
Reeder is very short in consequence. In
State is having hard luck, I'm thinking"
1t was stated this evening that in cas-
Mr.. QUAY should decide to visit Chairman
Carter at Republican headquarters h

health, but complains of the old vertg
troubles. He tells his friends that vertigt

QUAY will know all about the national en-
OF the campaign after e1-Collector Dav
Martins arrival from New York to-mor
row, and then he will doubtless go on t
Washington.
