Washington. D. C., April 21.—The
latest and most authentic place of gossip
concerning the Pennsylvania governorship
is that Quay on lus return trom Florida
found dissensions in the camp, and he made
up his mind to drop Deiamater. The
question then arose whom to head the
ticket with. It is said liiat a friend of
U anamaker suggested the posmaster
general s name and that Quay clapped his
hands and ejaculated, "Just the thing!
why didn't that occur to me before >
ihe story runs that a conference was held
between the postmaster-genera! and Quay,
at which the former's private secretary
was present and the postmaster-general
declined. Further that a subsequent
meeting at the postmaster-general's house
it was suggested to him by Quay that if
he would mu he (Quay) would insure his
election as governor and put him on the
ticket as vice-president with a western
man. giving him first the vote of Penn
sylvania in the convention for president.
This is said toha.e staggered the po.-t
--master-geueral. who saw in it a possible
blow at Harrison, which he was willing
to make, provided always he was sure of
being elected governor and of Quay's good
faith in carrying out the programme. It
is further said that Mr. Quay was quite
indignant over the postmaster-general's
hesitation and left him abruptly saying
that he would talk no more about it.
