MARK HANNA'S HAND.
IN THE STATE REPUBLICAN SIT
UATION.
Number of kilograms Received Today,
But the Howell People Are In No
Mood for Harmony

New Orleans, Oct. 10.-At the last
stretch of the political dispute be-
tween the rival factions of state Re
publicanism it would appear as if
Mark Hanna has finally taken hold
of the game and will insist on fusion
being effected, at least so far as the
electoral ticket is concerned, the ques-
ton of rival congressman being left
over till another time.
This morning Mr.. Herwig received
important dispatches from national
headquarters. A reporter waited on
Mr. Herwig and asked to be permitted
to get copy of the same. Mr.. Her
wig was busy at the time, at n meet
ing of his executive committee, but
cOurteOusly sent word that he would
not be able ut the time to give him
the required in formation. Later he
might.
However. it was learned from Il re-
liable source that both factions had
received kilograms from either Mr..
Hanna. or some one authorized to
speak for him intimating that the
regulars had been instructed to take
down four of their electors. those
form districts, and substitute four of
the Howell electors. the regulars to
have two district electors and two
electors at large. From the same
source it was learned that to make
sure that this order would not mis-
carry or be lost in the shuttle at Her
wig headquarters, individual tele-
grams had been sent to each member
of the Herwig committee instructing
him to see to it that he himself read
the instructions.
The Herwig committee at this writ
ing continues in session and may con-
tinue so for some time. The wishes
of Mr. Hanna are distasteful to the
Howell people, for reason that his la
test move leaves the question of lea
dership just where it is now at, and
the chances are that Mr.. Hanna's die
tum will be disregarded by the sugar
planters party. The fact is that the
relations between the factions is so
strained that nothing short of a mir
acle can bring about solution of the
trouble, and the majority Of the lead
ers of the white Republican faction
are now so thoroughly aggravated at
Mr.. Hanna's interference in their af-
fairs, that it will not surprise any
one to discover that total disregard
to the Mckinley managers wishes
will be deliberately brought about
The time for consolation has passed,
it is now war to the knife.

the north. He reports that all nor
