IIariHiMumo, Pa., April 2«.—Senator Quay left for Washington at B:lO this morning, resisting the Iropurtunltlgs of his friends that he remain until after the Republican State convention. While he was here he wag continually besieged by visitors and it was neces sary for him to hide lilrus-lf in order to obtain rest. His action in deciding to succeed himself as state chairman robbed to day's convention of much of its Interest. It Is generally believed, however, that he will relinquish the chairmanship after the national con vention. There was nothing for Mr. Quay to do,for the delegates hold a caucus last night and agreed upon the lifts of names as follows; Delegates at laige, Governor Hast ings. James Klverson, publisher of the Philadelphia Inquirer; K. J. Torrence of Pittsburg, James G. Ileacom of Greensburg, the Rev. Dr. T. L. Flood of Mead villa; Joseph Hosier of Mont fornery county, William M. Driest of .ancaater, F. H. Barker of Kbensburg.

The delegates were slow in gather ing and It was not until 10:2ft o'clock that the representative of Mr. Quay called the convention to order. Two conspicuous absentees were David Martin ami Stale Senator Charles A. Porter of Philadelphia, who had been prominent figures at Republican gath erings for more ihan twenty years. been perfected, the resolutions com mittee reported the platform, which opens as follows: "For fidelity to the principle* of Republicanism, I’etinsyl vunia holds the first rank among till the Htetes. Year after year it ha* returned great majorities for the can didates of that party, with no selfish demands for recognition of any of its own citizen* as it national candidate. The time hus come when the Htate which has so long and faithfully led the Republican column may justly and properly submit Its own preference for the Republican nomination for the presidency. In the presentation of the Hon. Matthew Stanley Quay, the Republicans not alone of I’enrisylva* nia. but of the entire Union, will rec og n/.e one of their foremost leaders, wise in council and brilliant and able in actios, at once the type of the American citizen, scholar, soldier and statesman. ” The resolutions declare for a pro tective tariff and reciprocity, protec tion for American shipping, praise the financial legislation of the Republican party and continue: "Faithful to ite record, believing that the people are entitled to the use of the best money mud anxious to restore and preserve the Industrial and commercial nrov perity of the union, the Republican party favor* international bimetal lism, and, until tliutcan be established by general agreement, demand* the maintenance of the existing gold standard of value.” Liberal pensions are called for and the present, administration of the pen sion bureau denounced. Restrictions on immigration are demanded and the state committee’s reform bills in dorsed. 8ECTAKIAN SCHOOLS. Mo Appropriations to lto Ms (Is Altar July 1, ISOS.

Kepressniatlvss Hall of Mlssoart and Money of Mississippi Have a Lively encounter. Washiuoto*. April S4. — Congrese men Muncy, Democrat, Henator-elect from Mississippi, an I Cong rename n Hall, Democrat, of Missouri, had a personal encounter in the room of the committee on na» val affaire to-day ami Mr. Money was hit in the face by Mr. Hell and waa then atruck by an inkwell hurlsd by the Missourian an 1 badly cut on the head. Mr. Hall wae not touched. Mr. Money and Mr. Hall are both members of the na.ul commit tee, but the committee was not in session at the time. Felix McCloskey, the messenger of the committee. was standing at the door, heard the two members talk ing rather loudly uud then heard Mr. Hall say: “I'll allow no man to call me a liar.” Then Mc< losliey saw the Missourian reach over and plant his (1st in Mr. Money's face, staggering him and raising a lump. Mr. Hall is u man of large stuture, standing six f iet two and weighing i^&0 pounds. Mr. Money Is also tallT I mi t rather slender in build, anil no match for his opponent physically. Before Mr, Money could recover himself, Mr. Hall seized a large glass ink well from the table and hurled It at bis opponent. The latter, already dazed, could not dodge the missile, and It struck him behind the car, cut ting an ugly gash, and he fell hack against the wall. At this juncture McCloskey, who had been making his way toivard the irate congressmen, crowded between them and prevented further on slaughts, hut Mr. Hull was with dif ficulty repressed from continuing the assault. Mr. Money stood ugninst the wall, faint from loss of blood, which wa* streaming down Ills neck from the uf/iiind in III* lii'.ifl It* wii« liiii'riAfllv taken to a committee room on tin floor below, while Mr. Hall walked calrnlv along the corridor to the hall j of the House. The blood from Mr Money's wound dropped on the marble floor s* he wai half carried down the steps, and n great crowd immediately congregated and there wa* much excitement. The details of the cause of the en counter wore hard to obtain, Mr. | Hall, when seen immediately aftei the tight, said that he did not desire | to make a statemen', "It wa* a per I tonal matter,” sai l he, "and 1 do nol , desire to say anything. 1 do not sup potto Mr. Money, either, will dare tc make a statement. Mr. Wilson, i member of the sub-committee, wai present." From others who were in the room It was learned that Hall and Money were arguing earnestly on tlm naval restoration bill, in which Hull ia con tiderably interested, a* to the propel ranking In naval circles, and aftei Hail had delivered himself of at opinion he was heatedly replied to whereupon he said that many of thosi who were opposed to the bill did nol believe in the views they advocated This angered Mr. Money, and taking the remark as a personal insult hi called Mr. Hall a “d-liar.” Then the fracas followed. The occupant* of the room, know tng the shooting proclivities of thi Money family, expected to see hin draw a revolver, but he was probablj too much stunned by the blow to col lect his sense* before friends had bin in charge. Further trouble between the twi men is expected, for the reputation o the Money family is that no one of Iti member* ever allowed a blow or ai Insult to go unresented A friend of Mr. Money who was In the room said: “Mr. Money was look ing over his mall when Hall entered and began discussing a bill before the committee relating to the rank 01 naval engineers. Mr. Money tooli part in the discussion, and though hii voice was pitched as it usually Is it controversial tone, be was in nowisi excited. Mr. Money mado a state ment that the surgeons were aftei both rauk and command. ‘So,’ hi added, smilingly, T take that back not command, but rank.' ‘Any mat who says that,’ said Mr. Hall, angrily ‘says what is not true.’ ‘You an a d- liar,’ retorted Mr. Money partly risiug from his chair Mr. Money rose to his feet and Mr Hall grabbed an ink well and hurlei It at him 1 he blow behind the eai staggered hint. Mr. Mouey, tliougl staggered, also clutched an Ink wcl and let It drive at Mr. Hall’a head, bu the Missourian dodged and the miasih flew harmlessly by and struck thi wall opposite Had it struck Mr Hull I believe it would have brain* him. The two men then made foi each other. Itolh of them made mo tious as if to draw I heir weapons Mr YViUuu of New Vork, a member of tin naval committee, who was nresen with the messenger and cleric, thei rushed between the tueu and prevent ed further trouble."
