Senator Chandler and Representative
Grosvenor met in the senate chamber
today, and from the gallery the meeting
of these belligerent statesmen appeared
to be of the most friendly nature. The
good nature was all on the surface,
however, General GrosvenOr went to
the senate to see Senator Elkins. He
was sitting on the back row of sea IS,
talking with the West Virginian, when
Senator Chandler came along and join
ed in the conversation.
whats the matter with you McKin-
ley fellOws?" said Chandler, in his bland
and cheerful manner. Are you mad
at me because l elected Hays to the
presidency without spending dollar?'
Il never heard anybody accuse you of
electing Hayes, with or without money"
replied General Grosvenor, with a wick
ed smile.
Senator Elkins saw at once that the
rival boomers were disposed TO be sar-
castle, so ne interviewed with a little
genial good nature, and Chandler pro-
ceeded to another part of the chamber,
leaving Grosvenor and Elkins to con-
clude their converse ton.
