CUYAHOGA is FOR HANNA
he Will Control the County Convention by
Small Majority.
Several Men on the Hanna Lexislatiye
Slate, However, Were Defeated
Gossip About McKisson.
Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
CLEVELAND, Ohio, June Ex-senator
Iianna's slate was badly shattered at last
nights republican primaries, but his friends
will control the county convention tomor-
row morning. The fight waged at the polls
did not involve a question of Hanna's in
dorsement. That matter was a settled fact
a good many days ago, no matter which
faction controlled the convention. The con-
test was simply fight between the friends
OF Senator Hanna and the Mckisson ma
chine for control of the party machinery in
Cuyahoga county.
Wanted Everything in Sight.
incidentally, and, perhaps ill-advsedly,
the Hanna managers placed legislative
slate in the field along with delegation
slate in each ward. The McKisson people
rallied to tine fight and smashed the slate
once on the senator ticket by nominating
Burke, and twice on the representative
ticket by nominating Bramley and Mason
at the expense of Doty and kuZel. The rest
of the Hanna slate went through, but it
was not decided Hanna victory, because
most of them, at least Breck, Clifford and
Henry, were not opposed by the Mckisson
people.
The battle waged yesterday will go down
in history as one of the most important
much lighter than the pleasant day and
important issues gave promise of. But
from the moment the polls opened at
O'CLOCK until . o'clock the leaders in both
factions were active in the thick of the
ba tile. Indeed, never at primary cleo
tion were there more workers surrounding
the booths.
Hanna Will Control Delegation.
BY virtue of the result of yesterdays pri-
maries Senator Hannas friends have at
least probably prevented Mayor Mckisson
from going to TIE Toledo convention at
the head of the Cuyahoga county cOnven-
ticn. The control of the powerful Cuya-
hcga delegation will be III Mr.. Hannas
hands by dangero ously close margin, and
may pass entirely from him yet. The
delegations to the convention are SO badly
mixed that the exact conurol of the con-
vention cannot be precisely determined un-
til ii meets, although Senator Hanna prob
ably has it, This fact will thwart the
gubernatoriaI ambitions of Mayor Mckls-
son to large extent.
1t is said here that Senator Foraker eX-
pected TO push him for Bushnelrs place
IN case the governor did not care to face
the battle again. 1t may be that Mayor
Mckisson will be pushed for chairman
of the convention.

Senator Nelson's Anti-Trust Amen
ment to the Tariff Mil

ment to the Tariff nill.
Senator Nelson of Minnesota has pre-
pared an antitrust amendment, which he
will offer to the tariff bill, and which he
thinks will meet the objections that have
been made TO other amendments of a sim
liar character. 1t follows:
Every person, firm or corporation, who
shall monopolize or engross, or attempt to
nonopolize or engross, OF who shall COM
bine or conspire with any other person,
firm or corporation to monopolize or en-
gross the trade or commerce in raw or re-
fined sugar of any kind among the several
states or with foreign nations for the pur-
pose of unduly enhancing the price of such
sugar, shall be deemed guilty of a INSIDE
meanor, and on conviction thereof shall
be punished by a fine OF, not less than
prisonment at hard labor not less than
SIX months nor more than two years or
by both said punishments, in the discre-
tlon OF the court. -
and in case of a corporation found
guilty of said offense the. jury shall also
ascertain and find what officers of the
corporation caused or directed the cor
poraticn to commit such offense and such
ohcers, on being found guilty Of causing
or directing the corporation to commit the
offense of which it is found guilty, shall be
liable to the punishment aforesaid.
1T shall be sufficient pleading in the
language of this law; and the fact that ia
manufacturer or refner of, sugar refuses
to sell his sugar to the public, In inter-
state or foreign trade, otherwise than
through special factors or agents, shall be
deemed prima facie evidence of monopoliz-
ing or attempting to monopoIize the trade
In sugar among the several states or with
foreign nations.
THE several circuit courts of the United

ton to prevent and restrain violations of
this law, and it shall be the duty of the

lation shall be enjoined or otherwise pro-
hibiied. When the parties complained of
shall have been duly notified of such petit

may be. to the hearing and determination
of the case, and pending such petition and
before a final decree the court may at any
time make such temporary restraining
order or prohibition as shall be deemed
