Senators Quay and Cuuom and other
members of the anti-McKinley combine
are quoted as saying they intend to stick
TO the end" The funny part of it is
that it does not depend so much upon
what Quay, Cullom and the others say as
upon the delegates. A Philadelphia paper
says there are a number of the Quay
delegates who are ready to bolt at the
drop of hat, and to drop the hat them
selves.

HOW WHITNEY WILL BOOM
Continued from Sixth Page)

Of the party is in the carrying Of New
York, and that this can be done only
by hardmoney plank in the platform
and Whitney as the candidate. The ex-
secretary OF the navy is popular in the
south, in spite of his financial views.
Ell contributed toward a brilliant ad-
ministration socially, and his money
would help things during the coming
campaign wonderfully. The president
and his confidential advisers have come
TO the conclusion that with Whitney
they can whip the southerners into line
and compel them 10 swallow q radical
plank on the money question.
Carlisle never has been an admins
tration candidate. lney would suit the
president but Olney is marked for
slaughter by the workiIgmen and be-
sides that is opposed in Massachusetts
by the Hon William E. Russell, Nor
rison has been at outs with Mr.. Cleve-
land and the chasm between the two
never has been closed even by the frail-
est of bridges. Besides that the presi-
dent knows that Morrison. while nomin-
ally for sound money. is supported by
the silver men and could not be depend
ed upon,if nominated 10 treat his friends
very tenderly.
There is one contingency winch IS be-
ing considered. Levi P. Morton may be
on the Republican ticket, even at the
tail. Stranger things have happened
But 1 know what 1 am talking about
when 1 say that if Mckinley or any
other western protectionist heads the
Republican ticket and the financial
plank is not fiatfooted and unequivocal
William c. Whatney will be the next
Democratic candidate if Grover Cleve-
land can make him So"

told them the British consul was the
only one authorized TO pay them wages.

wages especially but IL was money they
were after. Mr.. Hart, believing their
purpose blackmail helped to put them
off the vessel.

ing tomorrow Horatio Rubens, counsel
for the Cuban junta in this country,
will be present.
