TZZ SINATC2 EEPOETED TO HAVE CCK-
sxsrrD to coax cut
A Cndilt for th Presidency.
K teloiriTiu from Washington says:
Senator M. S. Quay is an open and avow
ed candidate for President; his name
w ill be presented ftt the St. Iu is conven
tion by (Jovemor P. If. Hasting, or Col
onel William A. Stone, ami lie win oe
mipMirted on the first ballot by the M
delegates from Pennsylvania and many
scattering ones from tither states.
Althoueu Senator Quay has lieen urge.1
for some time to permit his name to be
presented to the St. Louis convention, he
w ould not consent. The pressure became
so strong, however, that during the past
w eek he legan to show signs or yielding.
The Havwood interview increased the
pressure, and the Senator yesterday after
noon fuliy yielded to the demand oinis
friends. To a correspondent lat niht
he stated that as certain arrangements
had N-cn perfo-led he would permit his
name to go before the convention. lie
declined positively to state w hat the ar
rangements were or to designate the other
Suites that would tve mm ta-iegaies.
He was equally positive in declining to
le quoted on the subject at alL As he is
now a presidential candidate, he thinks it
judicious not to discuss the matter, and
from now on until the nomination is
made in June he will be more than ever
"the silent man from Heaver."
It can lie stated, however, that the Sen
ator has received assurances of support
from sources that would be a surprise to
several of the other candidates. While
the eorresjiondent was with the Senator
in his committee room yesterday morn
ing two members of Congress and a State
Senator from a Southern Stale called and
pledged not only their personal support,
'out that a majority of the delegates from
their State should be instructed for him.
And there were many other callers who
came on similar missions.
One of the messages received by the
Senator was unusually pleasing to him.
It came from Jove: nor I). II. Hastings.
Although the tJovernor was at the head
of the combine that Senator Quay so se
verely trounced last summer, beseems to
!-ar no malice. n tlio contrary, toe
Jovernor in his letter declares emphati-
cdlv for the nomination of Senator Quay,
!i'dges his assistance in securing a solid
lvlcgutien from Pennsylvania to the con
vention in Ins licliall, and .isks ior me
privilege of making the nominating
sieech.
If the Governor can bary the past and
raily to the support of Senator Quay it is
lelioved tiiat 1'avid Martin and C. L.
Maee will follow suit, and that the d
vetes from Pennsylvania will be instruct
ed fr Senator Quay.
As the Iowa delegation met and inders
i the candidacy of Senator Allison, the
Ohio delegation that of Major Metinli-y,
and the New York delegation is to meet
next week and do similar honor to Gov
ernor Morton, it is expected that the
Republican representatives from Penn
sylvania will look after Senator Quay's
interests in the same way. A dinner will
le given when the indorsement villi
made, and a plan outlined for pushing
Senator Quay's interests.

The House on Friday htst knocked

bv a vote of 1-1 to itt, a clear majority

free -oinage is dead, its far as the j.n
flit empress is con.vnied. ( )u t!:eot!:er
hand, the Senate is apparently determ
ined to throttle all other legislation un
less free coinage is adopted. With such
a majority against it in the Houm',
showing, as it does, the sentiment of
the Hsple, there i no possible chance
of its w inning in that body, and unless
the Senate changes its p.tsiliou, the
whole subject will go over until a new
Hotw, a partially new Senate, and a
new president are elected. The atti
tude of the House, with its nearly two
thirds majority against the measure,
will meantime restore public confi

that he is a candidate for president has
created ijtiite a flutter among the politi
cians of the country, and it is a-fumed
in wtuie ipiarters that it is a mere blu!!',
a scheme to get coui r.d of the delega

ate in dead earnest, and that he will

cure the nomination. If there were a
eingle genuine doubt of his ability to
carry a solid delegation for himst If into

The remaining 21 Republican vote cst

that nearly half of the Southern Reputs-li.-ans,

Altoona, February lo. It :s claimed
that through the instrumentality of Rev.
Mr. Sen ft and other members of the
Christian Alliance in this city forty mi
raculous faith cures have been effected
here within the last three years. The
latest subject is Miss Uertie liinger, a
young woman. It is claimed that not
only her parents, but her gnindpareuU
as well, died with slow consumption aud
that she was s ill with the same disease
as to le unable to raise her hands, an 1
her death was momentarily expected.
In answer to prayer sho was enabled to
leave her led, put on her clothing and
walk out among her friends with the an
nouncement that she h id been cured by
the Lord.
This is said to have occurred on Mon
day, and Mb-s tJinger h;is been improv
ing in appoaranee every day since and
has resumed her aivu.-tomed work. The
cure has caused much talk in the cit
and the more so as Rev. Sen ft and the
other Christian Alliance people here
have not licen generally known to le de
voting themselves to this case.

The Washington W, in politic pro
fessedly independent and in influence
the capital's first newspaper, may le ac
cepted as peculiarly an organ of public
opinion, from the close contact it comes
into with sentiment from all parts of the
country. It is interesting to hear what
the W has to say of Senator Quay's
presidential candidacy. After venturing
the opinion that the executive chair has
not only Ktn filled, but frequently filled,
by men inferior to Senator Quay in every
attribute of statesmanship, it says:
There are various high qualities which
no honest and intelligent o's-erver of
public events will deny to Mr. Quay.
He is sensible, lie is courageous, ue is
patriotic, he is not a bvpocrile, he tells
the truth, he keeps his promises, he ac
knowledges and lives up to his convic
tions. Mr. Quay is no demagogue, he is
::o huiiiV.i,T, he does not pretend to 1
what he is not, lie is neither a fool nor a
sneak. Those who have watched his
course in the senate w ill lear us witness
that he has never l.-een found espousing
anv mischievous or silly cause: that he
has declared himself frankly and boldly
on every imitortant question bv which
he was confronted ; that he has invaria
bly scorned to take refuge in evasion.
-.juivoi-ation, or silence. He makes no
pretense of oratory, he has never tried to
lok iike somelHsly else, he has not ask
ed any one to U-iieve that he is great, or
suggested by word or a'l that the bul
warks of our personal HK-rtii's and our
national morals defend ii;.-m him for
t'.eir peniefiation. Mr. Quay is a plain
unpietending loan of the people, not one
set a; art for spes-ial reverence or conse
crated to some superhuman service, and
he is quite free from the offense of think
ing himself better and holier than his
m-ighlsirs. We know of no reason why

North Pole Discovered.
Since lr. Nansen left Christiana in
June, ISM, iu the steamer Fram, en
his hazardous journey to the North
Pole, despatches have at short intervals
given information concerning him, tmt-
wiihstaniiuiir tho har.Iv adventurer was
f:ir iK'yond the realms of human kind,
These despatches have wrecked his
ship, have killed the brave doctor, have
sighted the Kr:im o!f the e.tst coast of
iJreeuland, have ha I iiii.l liscer the
North Pole in the summit of one of a
chain of mountains, and bavo h ed him
Mend carrier pigems, which he never
poss :-ssed, to bis wailing wife in Norway.
Most of these di-spatci.es emanated from
certain unreliable publications i:t London
and Paris, Imt the hitest comes fiv-rn a
new source, namely, St. IV-eisburg. It
is to the effect that a Siberian trader has
received information that lr. Naiisen has
rca-hetl the North Pole, that he found
land there, and is now em his way home.
The numerous unsulstai!lialed des
patches hitherto received concerning the
famous Arctic explorer will cause inrsit
people to regard the present report with
indiiVereiK'e or incredulity, the more
especially since the Sils-riau trader fails
to state in what manner he rei-civcd the
information he imparts. It is ditlieult to
understand how he could have definite
knowledge of Dr. Nansen's discovery and
w herealsmts w ithout lr. Nansen lieing
close at his heels to speak for himself.

Wasiiisutox, Feb. PL ien. Ureeley,

the arctic explorers, place little credence
in a telegram from the Iirilish consul nt
Archangel, Knssia, confirming the re
port from Irkutsk, Siberia, that Ir.
Nansen, the Norwegian explorer, bad
reached the North p'de. Irkutsk and
Archangel are alsnit R, mile-i p:irt,
and accessible only by reindeer and dog
routes in winter, whilj in summer a
portion of tho journey e-an be made by

Lieut. Schnctze, who is especially fa

country, and the native inhabitant,
thinks the information has been mis
