CJimv linn. Make Colonel Quay the
Clioieo of the Republican I'art.v For
United States Senator.
(Special Correrpondence.)
Harrisburg, Jan. 10.—Hon. Matthew
S'artley Ouay has been declared the
choice of the Republican party of Penn
sylvania for United States senator.
This action was taken by the Joint Re
publican caucus cn Tuesday even
ing last, ivhen upon motion of .Colonel
Quay's political opponent for many
years. Senator C. L. Ma gee. he was
made the unanimous nominee of the
party. There were present and voting in
the caucus 109 senators and represen a
tives, or more than two-thirds of the
Republican membership of the legisla
ture. and every man in the hall went
on record in favor of sustaining the
action of the majority and making the
senior senator the Republican party's
candidate to succeed himself.
It was an insiiiing scene In the
beautifully decorated hall of the house
of representatives when the caucus was
called to order by Hon. J> hn C. Grady,
of Philadelphia. The caucus had betu
called in accordance with the rules of
the Repub.ican party by the chairmen
of the caucuses held by the Re
publican members of the senate
and the house, respectively, Senator
Grady on the part of the senate an 1
Representative W. T. Marshall, of Al
legheny, cn the part of the Republican
members of the house. Doth were
elected unanimously by caucus a: -
tlon. and there could be no question
' .t.>- to the regularity of their action, j
There was a great crowd of s> c it- si
present and the speeches ■ 112 the orato s
were cnthus'.isli ally ch en d.
"The Ile;>ub'ic on party has ca'iod y <
into count i! t j-nlgh'," s..id Senate:
Grady, in calling the caucus to i rJe:\
"to select a candidate who ce.n com
mand the largest number cf vies in a
convention to be held two weeks tr< m
today to represent, not only the P. -
publican party, but the state of IV.m- i

Senator Walter T. rick, of Pie "i
burg. Tioga county, then arose. and in |
a speech full off ■ ling and with mueli !
eloquence, plaaeed the name ef r.
Quay In nomination. Senator Met't'i.-'.t
spoke as follows:
"We will select tonight the c . i'H 'te
who should unquestionably 1)2 eleet 1

.could nny man make? Heroes thru

wives, families, sweethearts were for
saken to save a nation and to preserve
the liberty our fathers had given rs.
My candidate was one of those heroes.
One to whom the coward's burning

All eyes were now dlrecied to John It.
Farr, of I.aokawanna, the speaker of
the house of represent a l lves, who com
manded the attention cf the chair. Mr.
Farr voted for Senator Quay in 18f>2.
and in the Penrose fight cast his vote
for Wanamaker.
"I did not expect to .say a word at

Speaker Farr. "I did expect to support

of the members of tho legislature who
bolted the Republican caucus on the
I'nited States senat nl i ; . While i f is a

did not participate in the ciueus were

by the caucus nominee.
In an address to the Republicans of
Pennsyiv *ni.ju t Issued by the chair
men of the Republican senate and
fc< use cancusis. He n. J hn C. Grady, of
Philadelphia. anil Hon. William T.
l arsliaii, of Allegheny, they review the
action nf the joint Republican sena
torial caucus at Ilarrisbuig, and anions:
other things say:
"It is admitted that if all were pres
ent who are entitled f o a seat therein.
Inducting th" sevi ral »h» had not
qualified as members of the general as
sembly. there would bo 16i, and admit
tedly S3 would be a quorum to transact
the business devolving upon it. Those
who absented themselves are In the
same position, no bet;er and no
stronger than delegates to any con
tention would find themselves after a
majority had regularly met under the
rules which govern it anil a majority
had made 'heir declaration and all
present acceding to the right for the
majority to rule, moved to make the
same unanimous. Such was the history
of that body. Every one who voted
thert in was a member of the general as
sembly and not only did a quorum of
83 vote, but (he total number of votes
cast was IC9. more than two-thirds of
all the Republican members who were
qualfied that day when the general as
sembly was convened."
After reciting the facts that the
caucus was regularly called and oon
duetcd strictly in accordance with the
ru'es, !hey refer to Senator Quay as
receiving the unanimous vrte of lot*
members present. Co .tlnulng they add:
"In view of the facts herein set forth,
we cannot how any fa r minded Re
publi an can 1 u believe the Hon. Mat
thew Stanley Quay to be the nominee
of the Republican party for ITnited
States sen-tor. It is a fundamental
of the Republican organiza
tion that the majority shall rule. The
action if *his caucus is as much bind
ing upon T • uVi ns of the common
wealth or Pennsylvania as would be
the nr-Mcn of any Republican conven
tion. c'ty, con i*y, Kta.e or n lliona!. The

that the : r senator had not vi ilated
any liw and that he had not pr; fited

The air- ■ by Rufus K. Shapiey.
one oft' 1 t brilliant members of
the Philadelphia bar. in support of
Senator Quay's contention that he was
the victim of a conspiracy and that
he could not expect justice under ex
isting conditions in the Philadelphia
courts commanded great attention.
Never since the days ef the Infamous
Jeffreys, said he. had there been such
an unpardonable attempt to prostitute
the machinery of courts of justice and
the powers of the district attorney as
had been made by thl= very ex-dis'.rict
attorney and ex-Judge Gordon. He
enlarged upon the proposition that the
pititP-n rs clearly sh"w that this prose
cut Irn was instigated by the express
malice of po'i ical enemies and through
a political conspiracy to abuse the pro
cesses of the lower court for Improper
purposes, and that, in pursuance of
such conspiracy, on attempt is now be
ing made to subject the petitioners to
Inconvenience and hardship.
"When District Attorney Graham de
nied the charge of malice he forgot the
mi. titud'nous spoei h»s. published in
the newspapers." said Mr. Shapiey.
"which he volunteered to make before
and while the warrant was pending,
afterwards and down to the final pro
ceedings in this case. That gentleman
forgot that the same Judge Gordon
whom he seeks to defend resigned no
toriously at the very hour when he
knew we were before the chief justice
and an associate Justice of this court,
begg'.ng that they should interfere with
a stron? hand to prevent the inon
Etro°ity of that judge sitting, r.she
threatened to do. and as the district at
torney told us he would do, to try this
very case which he had instigated not.
as the district attorney snvs, for <1
proper administration of justice, but for
the vilest and most contemptible motive
that can actuate the most degraded
man—that of pure, sheer, express mal
ice.
