THERE WILL BE NO EXTRA SESSION Useless to With Tiny Auticipate Any Interference the Banking Laws at T Ir. Quay's Estimace of the Situation. 518 FounterNti STt WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 12, Some interesting Light upon the probabie polioy of the democrats at the next session of congress was given w Tue Ber corre- sponaent today by Representative Outhwaite of Ohio. Mr. Outhwaite is chairman of the house committec on military affairs and is one of the bost informed sud sagacious of the democratic leaders in conaress. It will be scen that his expectations are somewhat in line with thoso uttered by Senator Quay. Said Mr. Outhwaite: *Itis useless to an- ticipate auy interference with our banking laws at this time. The democrats do rot ex- pect aud they coulda not if they so desired to make any change in our present system of making all issues of money come directly trom the tederal government. he 10 per oeat tax state bank issues will not be repoalod. It is not my way, nor thatof tho domocratic party, to kill & thing by taxing it out of existence, but now that the state bank issues aro done for by an 1iuhibi- tory tax, they will not be reiieved. There Wwill not be an extra session of congress, Mr, Cleveland is opposed to such a thing, and id 80 eight vears ago, Kverybody knows that the party responsiole for un exira ses- sion of cougress in timesof peace alwuys suffers defeatat the next election, Another thing, it is absurd to suppose that the demo- orats in congress lutend to roil up their sleaves and jump at their work of destroyiug Awmerlcan industries, Tho present tariff law will be materially modified, but there will be only a slight reduction of duties upoa arti- cles which are successfully manufactured in our country, We will givo the manutac- turers free raw materials aud will put tin plato upon the free list vecause it is not an establisted iudustry and cannot be made so in this country. The estaniished industrios will ot be destroyed by veing thrown into full competition with those of England, nor will they be materially affected oy a heav reductiou of duties upon their manufactures, Wo will first give them free raw materials o work with aod then we will consider re- ductions of tariffs upon the mauufactured wrticlos, WasiiiNeTox BUREAU oF TiE BaE, } ou Quay's View of the Election. Senator Quay of Pennsylvania, ex-chair- man of the repuclican national committee, has declined 10 express any comment upon the resultof the prosidential olection boyond the single laconic remark, **We did not have votes enough.” ‘Today, however, Tue Bee corresnoudont succeeded in persuading Mr. Quay tosay a Litle more. The scoator was found sitling iu bis livrary dictating replies to several hundred telegrams of congeatula- tlons which be uad received from friends in Penusylvauia over the republican majority on joint baltot of eighty-two iu the levisla- ture, which ensures his return 1o the United Biates senate.

Too SODALOr COCked oune eye al the parrol, saud the bird in response olinked both eyes and sang very disunctly, “Ob desr; what can the mat. ar be!” Mr. Quay grew very serious and thought- ful when boe was asked for nis oniniou as to the future policy of the republican party. “i beliove,” be salg, “‘Lbay the republican #hould not yield one iuch in its theor- s 10 the bonelits of & protective tarifl. free list and reducing the duties on woolen manufactures and removing the duties from tin plate, binding twine, cotton ties and co'- tou bawging and from machinery used in the manufacture of cotton baggiug, all of which are now in the senate finance commwmittee, should be retained in that committee and not reported. In fact, I believe tnat they will not be reported.

Tue people had four years of Cleve- land ouce, and they had enough.

What purported to be an indireot expres- slon of the views of tue president of the macagement of the campaiga and its results, given through an anonymous ‘‘frien ap- peared in 8 New York democratic paper this morning, It may be said positively taat this Indirect intervicw was wholly unautnorized, and was filled with errors and inaccuracies, The presideat has uttered no criticism of Mr. Carter or Mr. McConits, or Mr, Manley or General Clarkson. It is emphutically un- true that the president has attributed 16 any degree nis defeat to the iufiuence of any of tbe republican leaders, including Mr. Platt, Mr. Quay and Mr. Camerop, who were op- posed to his renomiuation at Minncapolis, As a matter of fact, the presigent became whoroughiy satistied early” in the campalgn that all of the republican leaders, whatever their attitude before the Minneapolis con- vention may bave oeen, were loyal and sin- cere in their supportof the parly and its can- didate, Nows for the Army.

Both proved that they had beon residents of the state for more than six months and of the county for more thun forty days. Both aru unmarricd and both testi- fled that they looked unon the county of Lan- caster as their permanent residence, ‘fhe prosecution failed to produce any direct ovi- dence agalnst them and therefore recom- mended their discharge.
