Quay's Friends VIII Make It Warm
For the 5 Mark Hap.

For the 5 Mark rlan.
Washington, April 26 The betray-
al of Quay in the senate by Senator
Hanna has started row in that
body among both democrats and re-
puolicans. Hanna's pet scheme, the |
Subsidy bill, is to be knocked out by |
the Quay republicans, and the means |
by which Hanna was elected will be |
ventilated by the Quay democrats
when the Clark case comes up for
consideration.
Senators of both parties are out
for revenge, and they were hobnob-
bing together today. Senator Carter
of Montana is one of the most astute
republican politicians in the senate
and an ardent friend of Quay Sen
ator Carter is not talking directly of
revenge. He favors an "early ad-
iournment of congress and the post
ponement of all matters possible un-
til the next session."
Discussing the probable legislation
of congress, Mr.. Carter said today:
it has enacted into law the matters
CT pressing Importance that have
been brought TO its attention. The
Porto Rico question has been set
tied by the Foraker bill. The Phil
ippine question will be settled by
congress by the adoption of the
| Spooner resolution. Cuba does not
| demand immediate attention, and
there is little left now to be done be-
yond the appropriation bills"
''How about the shipping subsidy
bin:'
At this question Mr.. Carter's :ace
lighted up and he said; The ship
ping bill? Yes, there has been some
talk OF putting that through this
session. but it can just as we'll wait
until the next session or the next
congress, for that matter. No need
for hurry. There does not seem to
be any great amount of ycarning for
the passage of the subsidy bill, and
| imagine it can hardly get through
! this session" "
Mr.. Carter's statement. in view of
the senate republican steering com
mittee is significant.
The Quay democrats intend to
IVORY Hanna in another way. When
the Clark case is called up they in
tend to discuss the charges of brib-
cry in connection with the election
of Mr.. Hanna to the senate, as filed
by the Ohio state senate. 1t will be
remembered that Hanna was elected
, by majority of only two votes, and
. that open charges eff bribery in con-
nection with the election were made
in the papers submitted to the SEN
! ate committee on privileges and elec-
: tions on February IS, 1899.
The report was based npon the
transcript of the record made by the
Ohio senatorial committee, which
: showed that Henry H. Boyce, ar
agent of Hanna, endeavored to brIbe
John C. Otis, member of the house
r of representatives from Cincinnati
!, MIR. Chandler, in the majority re
ports referring to Boyce's transac
tions, said: sit raises suspicion
that Mr.. Hanna's representatives a
: Columbus knew what Mr.. Boyce wa
: doing. But this whole line of in
g quiry would require verifications b.
testimony to be taken by the com
mittee on privileges and election
! ! before that committee would be will
ing to find conclusions thereon"
The minority report favored taking
! additional testimony, but was vote'
down. This was done by Repubii
can majority. Now that Hanna ha
sold out Quay, the Quay Democrat
will bring this matter into proml
Il nence in debate.
