Quay's Poor Chances.

Harrisburg, Pa. Jan. 73-E. A. Van
Valkenburg, who is managing the anti.
Quay campaign, issued at statement 10
night in which he says the senatorial sit.
uation is no longer complicated nor un.
certain. Mr.. Van Valkenburg claims
Senator Quay's strength was at high tide
when he received II3 votes, which is just
fourteen short Of majority. Against
him are I3o votes. 81 are Democrats and
81 anti.Quay Republicans.
"The Quay managers have abandoned
all hope of securing a single vote from
the anti.Quay ranks" he adds. But
while admitting that no Democrat will
vote directly for Quay at any stage of
the contest. they assert with an air of
mystery rather than Of confidence. that
at the proper time enough Democrats
will be found to supply the necessary
fourteen votes that Senator Gray must
have to elect him. The Quay machine
is bankrupt in the matter of political
patronage. All the attempts of the Quay
people to create friction between the
Democrats and and anti Quayites have
signally failed. Senator Quay amassed
all his strength to break the anti Quay
lines last Wednesday and failed. He
has given orders that another effort must
