QUAY IS AIDING GORMlN
This Is the Latest Charge
Against the Pennsylvania.
MADE BY MR.. WELLINGTON
The Chairman of the Maryland Cen
tral Committee Asserts That the
Republican SENATOR Is Making Use
of Reporters 10 Help His Demo-
cratic Colleague.

No accusation of political treachery or
the utilization of corrupt election methods
has IN recent years attracted more atten-
tion in This city than the openly made deciil-
ration that senator Quay is using every
means employed by the shrewd politician
10 aid Senator German in retaining contIol
of Maryland, even at the expense OF antHg-
onzing the entire Republican State ticket
and involving the loss of the legislature,
which will have the election OF Il unteu
States Senator.
George l.. Wellington, chairman OF the
Republican State central committee ana
Member OF Congress from the Sixth Mary
land district, has publicly made the state
ment that Senator Quay, the Repubiiran
leader of Pennsylvania, is planning with
Senator German to carry Maryland Tor
the Democrats at the approaching election.
Mr. Wellington AYERS that The arrange
ment is under Il plan of reciprocity, which
has long existed between the two leaders.
He further declares his determination OF
waging war upon Mr.. Quay, both i'll and out
Of Congress.
WAlie names have not heretofore been
mentioned nor specifications formulated,
many careful observers in this city have
not hesitatcd to declare that Mr.. Germans
warmest personal friends in the Senate in
cIutied Il number of Republicans
QUAY WAS SUSPECTED.
These repeated allegations have led Chair
man Wellington to suspect that Mr- quay
had more at heart the interest OF his friend
than the success OF the party to the lead
crship of which he a second time aspires.
n..is. Mr.
Wellington asseverates that Senator Quay
not only sympathizes with his Senatorial
associate, but has either directly or indi-
rectly become responsible for the employ
ment of colonization meInous and the other
means which are not only disrepuiable,
but constitute a violation of law In pro-
Mitigating his charges MIR. Wellington says
on this point:
Il know that Quay is helping German
with ail his skill and ability. Arrangements
have been made TO send at least 200 re-
peaters from Philadelphia to Baltimore TO
be used for German on election dty.
"They are 10 be in charge OF Quay's lieu
tenants. German and Quay, although of
different political parties, are known to be
allied in many schemes before Congress,
and il is natural That they should help
each other in fights Ike the one now going
on here. / intend to expose the whole
country in his true light and before his
party for just what he is.
Il am ready to produce the evidence
whenever Mr.. Quay wants 1t. In any event
it shall be produced at the proper time, for
consider il Il part of my duty 10 expose
Quay, and i shall certainly do it before /
am '"rongh with him"
While it is doubtful IL Senator Quay en-
tertains any real hope of becoming the man
ager of the next national campaign, 1t is
certain Mr.. wellingtoD's serious charges
will act as clog upon his ambitions in
that direction, If he really has them soon
after.
PLANS OF THE SENATOR.
After the Senator's recent triumph in
Pennsy lvauia, tue statement WIS sent
broadcast over the country that this was
but the stepping-stone to the chairman
ship of the National Republican Committee,
and that when the committee met here to
select the place and date Of the next nomi-
mating convention Mr.. Quay Guild begin
an open and aggressive campaign against
eX-President Harrison by having himself
elected chairman OF the committee.
IL v as promptly set forth that this pro-
gramme W as faulty in two essential details,
q Wit, that Mr. Quay was not member of
The National Committee, and that Chair
man Carter had not yet announced any in
cntion of resignIng. But such mere iacts
did not Geter the rumoT- mOngers. Hence,
The statement of Chairman Carter. W no is
now i'll Washington, may be of interest.
'An talk about a change IN the present
craftsmanship of the National Committee
is ridiculous" said he. No change is
practicable unless the present incum-
tent should voluntarily retire, and as The
present incumbent | can state " ith conf
dence that he has not the least intention
of retiring"
Even if Carter had ever intended re-
signing, which he never did, It would
sill have required the resignation of Mr.
David Martin, of Pittsburg, who is the
Pennsylvania member of the committee,
To make it possible for Mr.. Quay to be-
come member OF the committee pre-
paratory To occupying its chair.
