New YORK, Oct. 30.-The Republican
leaders at the national headquarters are
questioning Grover CleveIani's right to

lot Nov. s. The Democratic presiden-
tial candidate resides at 12 West Fifty
first street, the Thirteenth election dis
trict of the Twenty-6rst assembly dis
trict, but did not take up his residence
there till after Oct. II, which renders it
illegal, under the thirty-days-re

of Kentucky, is stopping at the Hoffman
house. lie came to New York yeSter-
day to speak at mass meeting in
Brooklyn. He has full engagements to
speak in this state.
The Outlook.
"What do you think of the outlook?"
he was asked.
81 regard the indications as favOring
Cleveland'S election. | don't think
there is any doubt about it. | have
carefully looked over the situation, and
this is my conclusion. The chances in
this state, which is no doubt the pivotal
state, are decidedly in our favor. | do
not expect that we shall lose single
Southern state on account of the POpu-
list or any other coalition. West VIr-
ginia is the only state in that section that
is at all on the doubtful list, but the out
look there is hopeful. 1t has been CAM
paign of educatiOn-apd If Cleveland is
elected it Will be on the issue Of tariff
reform, upon which the voters have
been thoroughly enlightened.
Il 90 not know what the situation in
the West is, as | have not visited that
part Of the country"
Congressman Breckenridge was asked
if he had anything to say about his
declinatiOn of the invitation to speak at
the dedication of the worlds fair build
ings. .r,
Nothing at ALL" he replied. THAT
question is dead ISSUE"
Sunday at the Fair.
He expressed himself as emphatically
against the opening of the worlds fair
on Sunday after congress had voted that
it should be closed, but he declined to
discuss the question that has been
raised as to the right of congress to
legislate or interfere in religious Oh
Servance OF the observance of Sunday.
Senator John q. Carlisle, of Ken
lucky, arrived in New York late last
night. Being asked about the report
that he did not register, he said:
"A good deal of Importance see ms to
he attached to my failure to register.
The simple fact was that l was III
Frankfort attending the court of ap-
peals. [ understood, and it was gener-
ally believed before | left home, that
the city council of CovIngtOn would
pass all ordinance allowing two addi-
tiOnal days for registration. But the
ordinance was not passed, and when L
arrived in CovingtOn found the regis
try lists closed. That is all there is
to it,"
The senator SAID the outlook for
Cleveland is exceedingly encouraging,
and that there is no doubt of his cleo
ton.
Quay Very Quiet.
Senator S. NJ. Quay, of Pennsylvania,
is still in New York. 1t is said that he

day to the dispatch sent from this city
Friday night by Editor Mcclure. of the
Philadelphia Times, saying that he
Quay had abandoned all hopes of Re-
publican victory in New York state. Il
nave OHcc ueliicu liidt L llidu0 any ouCh
admission" he replied. THAT was a
few weeks ago, when a similar report
was current"

on the outlook in this state or the geu-
eral situation, but he intimated that he
