To a reporter on tho train i-onator Quay declined to talk as tu tho object of his mis sion, snylng merely that ho was paying Major McKinley a friendly visit. Mr. Brown said ho was merely traveling as Mr. Quay's companion, nnd had no knowl edge as to the nature of his mission. Senator Quay left Canton at 1 :2.i in the afternoon without Riving out tho suspicion WILLIAM M'KIKLET. of a statement. Ho did not appear to bt in n cordial humor, and rather snapped nt newspapermen. Tho outcomo of tho ill' torvlewis not known, as neither Quay not McKinley would listen to questions. It is understood, that tho visit of Senator Quay with Mr. McKlnloy was of tho friendliest character. It Is regarded hero ns a call of the Kcpubllcan loader of Ponn sylvania upon n ltepubllcnn candidate for tho prosldonoy. Their separation nt the station would Indicate most cordial and hearty relations and clearly manifested to onlookors that tho visit had boon of a most agreeable nnturo.

Tho giving of oltlcos was not considered, nor was the ONinpalgn for the humiliation discussed, because overy Hepublloan knows tho cum lalgii to bo practically onded. " Ono thing thoy did dbjouss was the campaign which McKinley will untet ngalust tho Democratic onndldato foi president.

TO IMPEACH CLEVELAND. ,Y Populist Member of tho House OlVerod tlin Itcsoltitloii To-day. Special to Kvexixq Hr.nALn. Washington, May 23. A scene of much excitement was enacted in the House of Itepresentatives to-day, and tho cauo there for camo from tho Populist sido of tho chamber. Iteprosentatlvo Howard, tho Populist mem her from Alabama, arose in his scat this morning and offered resolutions to the Houso for tho Impeachment of President Clove laud. Tho grounds upon which Howard asked the Houso to consider tho charges were that tho President, by hU direction, eon duct an Illegal sale of government bonds. illegal uso of the proceeds therefrom, cor ruption In politics, and a refusal to enforco tho anti-trust law. Tho motion to consider tho charges of Im peachment, however, only. Received two or threo votes. Tho modo of procedure of impeachment is for tho Houso of lleprcscntatives to becomo tho accusers, and appoint mauagers to con duct tho prosecution at tho bar of the Senate. Tho voto of tho Sonato is taken by putting tho question separately to each member, and a majority of two-thirds, is re quired for conviction. THE PRESBYTERIAN ASSEMBLY. AiHourns In Confusion Murine; u Discus Moil of Young People's Societies. Saiiatooa, May 23. Tho Presbyterian general assembly broke up at 5 o'clock yes terday afternoon Inconfusioii, in themldst of tho voto on thoresoltitlonsof tho special committee on thu relations of young peo ple's societies to tho church. Resolutions had been adopted directing that a "stato ment of relations" bo sent to tho separate societies to bo read by them, and reaffirm ing the action of tho assembly of 18!3. Tho former recommendation was reacho I only nfter a long discussion and under thu op eration of tho previous question. Just at tho hour of adjournment a mo tion was mndo to strike out tho other recommendations of tho committee and to discharge It. Action on this motion was only prevented by tho abrupt announce ment of tho vlco moderator, I)r. noujnmln L; Agnew, of Philadelphia, that tho hour of tho session had expired and that tho ns.scmbly stood adjourned. Ono recommendation of tho committee was entirely eliminated after an animated discussion and after a division. It related to tho formation of Prosbvtcrial unions of young people's societies in all of tho Pres byteries. Tho action in this direction was duo to tho belief that tho plan ns proposed would seriously interfere with present intcr-donominationnl associations and co operation. Pennsylvania Odd Fellows.
