QUAY’S CONFERENCE, The Senator and President Harrison Have a Long Talk Together, MR. HARRISON WILL NOT USE FEDERAL PATRON- AGE TO PROMOTE HI8 CHANCES, BUT DESIROUS OF PARTY SUCCESS. Special to the Philadelphia Press. Wasurxctox, June 9.—President Harrison and Senator Quay have reached a species of duo partite alliance, offensive and defensive. ‘This may be stated positively as the result of a secret conference held at the White House last night between the two persons chiefly in inter- est. The story of this conference is both inter- esting and important. While Senator Quay was making » tour of the departments yesterday afternoon he was frequently encountered by Pennsylvania pol- iticians, newspaper men and others, who im- portuned him for information as to his inter- view with the President yesterday noon and its results. The questioner could get only one negative statement out of Quay. That was that he had not talked politics, local or national, with the President. One fact the Senator ‘carefully concealed in his vest pocket was that he had an appointment with the President at 7:30 last night. To personal friends he confided the vague statement that he would be at his home after 10 o'clock. He disappeared from view early in the evening, and after that he could not be seen. The news- Papez men who hunted him at his house and ‘at the uptown hotels and_at the rooms of the dozen politicians who had come to Washington to see him, sought for him in yain. The wily Pennsylvania junior Senator sli away to the White House at 7:30, returned to his own house at 11, denied himself to all callers, went Promptly to bed, was up again at 7 o'clock this morning and took the § o'clock train for Phile- in. re are facts in profusion, however, as well as some information to friends to war- rant the statement tha. secret conference at the White House last night was fraught with interest to the republican party and will have its influence upon national politics. It is cer- tain that the three hours that Quay spent in confidential talk with the President were not barren of results, It is believed that they reached a basis of mt satisfactory to both. Col. Quay is to have his own way, Within limits agreeable to Postmaster General Wanamaker, and these two Pennsylvanians have always a, quite cordially as to ap- intments and about the official patronage in Pennsylvania. QUAY 18 QUESTIONED. The President is said to have questioned Col. Quay closely about his chances of re- election as Senator and about the kind of a con- test against him that report credits Represent- ative John Daizell being able to make. The President intimated that he held the glert and brainy Dalzell in » very high place in his esteem and respect. To ail this Senator Quay is said to have in effect that he loved nothing better than a fight: that he be- lieved internal contests in a political party. when properly and jhonorably conducted, were beneficial, us they aroused popular interest and brought out the vote; and that he, Senator Quay, had no fear of » contest with Mr. Dalzell or anybody else, since he had answered all the charges that had been made against his public conduet. ‘The President then explained to Senator Quay his attitude to the next national contest. He was not, he declared, a candidate for renomination in the sense that he would condescend to use federal patronage in any way to influence the party organization in Pennsylvania or in any other state. This was a business administration. He desired toserve his country well. He had proceeded and he would continue to proceed upon that plan. He and all-the members of his cabinet were in per- fect accord upon that ambition. As a republi- can he was naturally desirous of republican successin the next.campaign, and to t end he had no personal ambition that could for one secondinterfere. In short, President Harrison is said to have stated, that the one problem to be solved by the next national republican con- vention was a successful He then asked Senatcr [ ppedee inthe doubtful states, as to the strength and significance of the third movement, as to the change of public upon the McKinley tariff, and as to prot results of next fall's local elections in Pennsyl= vania, Ohio and elsewhere. SOME NATIONAL POLITICS. Discussing the situation a long talk followed, Senator Quay expressing himself freely as to his estimates of the feeling of the people and the condition of the party organization in New Eng- land, New York, the othey, middle states and are Able to Appear. Today in the Police Court Lawyer Campbell Carrington called Judge Miller's attention to the case of George Le Cointe, who 18 in jail on charges of attempting to kill his wife and Charles C.

Depot. A colored man supposed to be named Wm. Coates was run over by an engine at the Balti- more and Ohio depot last night and instantly killed. It is supposed that he was crossing the tracks and in attempting to get from in front of the headlight of a train standing on the track he stepped in front of a train of cars be- ing moved by the regulator. When his body was taken from the track it was found to be terribly crushed. No one about the railroad station knew him nor was there anything found in his pockets that fully estab! his identity, but a cheap note book found near him contained the name William Coates. In his pocket was founda piece of brown ‘pping Paper on which was written: esley Johnson said Tom McCan and he was expecting to go away on a contract soon. You will let me know when he is ready. Come to Mark's, between 6th and 7th, E and G streets southeast, alley No. 5.” There were also some slips of in bis pocket bearing rows of numbers, which indi- cated that the deceased had played policy, al- though no money was found on him. The body was taken to the morgue, where it was viewed today by Coroner Patterson. The corner made as much of an investiga tion as possible, learning that the man, Wesley Johnson, mentioned in the note had gone down the river and would not be back until late this afternoon. It was ascertained that he knew aman named Wm. Coates and the cor- oner is satisfied that the body is that of Coates. An inquest will be held at 4 o'clock this after- noon. ~ TRYING FOR THE PRESIDENCY, Pattison Said to Be the Choice of the Tam- many Hall Democracy. A special dispatch from New York to the Philadelphia Inquirer says: There is a decided movement on foot to make Robert E. Pattison the democratic candidate for President. This movement has been started within the wigwam of Tammany Hall, and as Tammany enjoys the distinction of being the regular democratic or- ganization, whatever it decides upon will be important in the presidential politics of this city and state. It has been the general under- standing that Cleveland and Hill would be the only contestants for New York's delegates, but ifthe news that comes from the wigwam is correct, and it is vouched for by some of its warriors. neither is in the race. In fact, the news goes so faras to declare that Tammany understands that Hill will not be in the field, and that he has no idea of seeking the nom- ination. * * * Pattison has been canvassed and has been communicated with. He is ready to make any alliances necessary with Tammany and his Prospects all ie, int the direction of Tammany fall. The leaders have picked him out as available for some very good reasons, which may be told in the words of the Inquirer's in- formant, who is himself in all the secrets of the democratic organization. Said he: “When Pattison was first mentioned the syg- festion, was met with derision, and this oy long before his late campaign for governor Pennsylvania. | He hed made a political record. It was recalled that he Was tle chair- man of the commission which investigated the Pacific railroads. The people in the westare just wild over railroads, and Pattison's course stood them right up in line. Pattison would be very popular in the west. Now, see where that leads Zou... The west is ‘restless, over railroads and attison’s course is quieting. It wants more silver, and Pattison could go with the party for a freer coinage and still retain the confi of Wall street. Why? Because he has been the president of well-know national bank and he could be trusted. Now, what a combination that is—hard money and’ more money. He is sound enough on tariff reform and has not made the mistake of talking too much. All the elements are there, you see. A special, also to the Inquirer, from Harris- burg says: There is no doubt that Gov. Patti- son is a full-fledged candidate for President. Every move he has made since assuming the governor's chair has been for the one purpose of strengthening his hold upon the state. All his appointments have leaned in that direction. When he was governor for the first time he split his party, and there was ® mugwump recognition that was appalling to the sturdy democratic workers. There is none of that now. Pattison is a democrat of democrats and he doesn't care who knows it, * * * If thero are those who batiove that the gov- ernor is going to con delegation simply to turn itover to Cleveland or anybod: = they are very much mistaken. Cleveland and Pattison have been good friends, but Pattison has no other candidate but himself. In fac those who are near to him make no secret the fact that he is a candidate in dead earnest.

Then she stepped from = chair and death resulted from strangulation. One foot was on the chair when the officer ar- rived at the house.

The coroner viewed the body later in the fe and gave a certificate of death as already: —_ ALEXANDRIA, THE ENGINEER DILL DEFEATED.
