Harrisburg, Jan. 1.-The legislature
will be convened at noon today in BIZ
ennial session, but it will probably be
late this afternoon before an organiza-
tion is effected, owing to the contest in
the house. The Republicans of both
houses held caucuses last night. the
followers Of Quay having the largest
attendance at their meetings The
election Of William p Snyder, OF Ches-
ter, the choice of the Quayites for
president of the senate, is assured
claiming victory. In the house caucus
it is claimed there We're 100 of the l54
members present, while two absentees
1t was stated, favored the stalwart can
didate for speaker, William r. Mar
shall, of Allegheny, which would give
Marshall majority of one vote. The
anti-Quayites, however declared these
figures are misleading, and that the
best Marshall can do is 81 votes.
The significant event of the senate
caucus was the action Of Senator Wash
burn, Of Crawford county. Mr.. Wash
burn was elected as a Populist two
years ago, and at the last session
voted for jerks for senator. Last night
he attended the stalwart Republican
caucus, having announced his inten-
tion to vote with that element.
Another significant event was a eau

Tonight the Republican senatorial
caucus will be held. Quayites CLAIM
they will produce at least 1877 votes
more than enough to elect, while tn,
antis say Quay will never be senator.
