V\ lie,her by so doing he hurt or helped Manna is as yet a matter nf dnnht. Theie was tin quarrel between Mr. McKinley anil Seiiat.u Foiaker, but then* . us plain talk on h..lh s ,*e.s Mr. MeKinl. y said that he ki.cn Fo raker could stop the tighr a- ||:iui a that some of his personal followers were show ing a disposition to make, if not actually making, if he desired to do so. Mr. Foruker did not deny liis power to do so, hilt retorted •»> saying that Hanna lias brought it all on himself hy liis treatment ot (lie Fo mkerand Busline!! republicans, and intimating that lie thought it would serve him good and light if he failed to get elected to the Senate. Mr. Mc Kinley did not defend Hanna's method in dealing with Foraker'sfriends, hut lie made it very plain that the whole power of the administration would be used to secure Hanna's election, and 'hat if would be useless for anvrepuh licun who took any part in an attempt to prevent his election to expect, the sligliest favor from him in the way of pi tnuage Notwithstanding all Mils the most that Mr. McKinley could get out of Foiaker was a promise that'"he would not personally do anything against the election ol lianua". Fo raker is still in Washington hi. d Mi. McKinley has not abandoned hope of being aide to In ing sufficient pressure ;n bear upon him to get him to agree ■o call liis followers off and to allow Hanna to be elected. Secretary Gage now openly admits that he is in sympathy with'the gold hug, self appointed monetary confer enee which assumes the tight to perform the duties properly belonging to Congress in connection with tiuun rial legislation, and to emphasize that sympathy he gave a dinner this week attended only by the members of the so called conference and Mr. II. H. Hanna, ot Indianapolis, who is generally regarded as the creator ot the Indianapolis convention and of this conference. At this dinner the work ot the conference, as tar as it has gone, and the financial recommen dations in the anuual report of Sec retary Gage were discuss, d. If these men have time to waste they have as much tight to waste it in this way as in any iithei. 'I he only good purpose that will he served either hv the rec ommendations of Secretary Gage or ol this conference, composed of his side partners, will be the increase in the silver sentiment of the country. Senator Chandler lias not always been wise in his predictions, out he hits the nail square on the head in his lutest, made rublic this week—-'if the repub lican party permanently acquiesces in the existing gold standard it will he defeated in the Congressional elec tions of 1898 and iu the Presidential election of 1900.'' Johu Wedderburn and John Wed derburn &. Co., who were lecently disbarred from practice befoie the Patent Office, were this week placed on the fraud list by the Post Office Department, and will not be allowed further use of the mads. Their paper the National Recorder, was included' iu the fraud order, and any letters addressed to them will be stamped "fraudulent" and returned ta the wri ter, if address is on envelop ; other wise they will be sent to the writer through the Dead Letter Office. News papeis which continue to carry Wed derburn &, Co's, advertisement after knowing of this fraud order may fin d themselves iu trouble with the postal authorities. Senator Wolcott arrived in Wash ington this week and had a conference wiih Mr. McKinley about the fizzle trip of himself and colleagues to Eu fepc, in search of that, latter day Iloly Grail known ,as international bimetallism. The Senator used to be almost always willing to talk to the newspaper men, but he now declines all invitations to discuss the failure in which he played such a conspicuous pair. Lemuel Eli Quigg. who was Boss Piatt s mouthpiece in the leceut New Vork municipal campaign and who is about the nn-st. discredited political prophet »t the day, was at the White House this week. His interview with Mr. McKinley mav or may not have included Cuban affairs, but, when it is temeiiihercd ho .t he shouted for free Luba during tiie last year session of Congress, the foil >winglanguage used by him after he lelt the White House is considered significant: "I hop, 'l*at Congress will not attempt to con duct our foreign relations. They are much better lelt to the administra tion. There was a time, perhaps, when a resolution conferring belliger eut lights upon the Cubaus might I I | 1 , ; , ' 1 1 ' I | I I | ; , | 1 i j | I 1 have been passed without bringing on a war with Spain, hut that time has gone.

There" ia no pn<si'de compensation for if. We aie 1,0* inn pi ope r condition nfdefeiise and it is al.sni.l to invite a war until we are ready for one." That is as complete a flipflop as any man in public life h is taken <m the Cuban q "s'ion, and if int. mates that the <i,, notliing poLcv is Mr. McKinley, to be continued 1 Eve, in iiei Lp I'o Date column in the T.
