AID FOR TEDDY.
Mark Hanna and Senator Plat
Make n Deal in His Behalf.

Mark Hanna and Senator Plat
Make n Deal In His Behalf.
NEW YORK, Oct. "a compact has
been made between Senator Mark A.
Hanna,of Ohio, and Senator Thomas
c. Platt, of New York, today, that in
exchange for a pledge that William
McKin!ey's denomination in 1900 is not
to be in any way menaced by the Re-
publican machine here all the influence
OF the federal administration is to be
thrown to elect Roosevelt. The deal
was made after an interview between
the chairman Of the Republican ma
tional committee and the boss of the
New York machine at the Fifth Avenue
hotel. At the close of the conference
Senator Platt said: Senator Hanna is
ready to take off his coat and go to
work for Mr.. Roosevelt if his services
are needed. We have had an agreeable
and satisfactory talk"
Senator Hanna seems to have come
here at the request Of the president.
Both Hanna and Mckinley since the
unsatisfactory talk the president and
Senator Plat had prior to the Sara
toga convention have been much wor-
ried lest the charge Of the Black peo-
pie that Plat was seeking to under
mine Mckinley for 1900 with Roosevelt
might be only too true.
Pending a. positive statement from
Plat that neither he nor Roosevelt
contemplated naming the latter or any
other New York man for the presidency
two years hence, the administration re-
fused to furnish aid Of any kind in the
campaign in this state. Now that Plat
has given his word all the patronage
and other help that is at the command
Of Mckinley is to be heaped into the
senator's lap for use in landing his
candidate for governor.
Senator Hanna also agreed to hand
over to Platt within a few days ali
the sinews of war necessary to insure
Republican majority Of the congress
sional delegation from New York in the
next house of representatives.

REPUBLICANS ARRAIGNED.
Democratic State Campaign In Wis
cOnsin Opened at ManitOvvOc.

cOnsin Opened at ManitOwOc.
MANITOWOC, Wis, Oct. S.-The
Democratic state campaign was for
mally opened in this city tonight, exL
State Attorney General James L.
OCOnnOr delivering the principal
speech, in which he arraigned the pres
ent Republican state administration
from beginning to end He ridiculed
the action of the Republican convention
in nominating a ticket on a platform
which he alleges condemns the present
administration, and then Gaping the
climax by planting upon the ticket the
present incumbent as nominee of the
Republican party. He scored the Re-
publican party for defeating the law
taxing corporations and for failure to
enact laws abolishing the pass system
after promising to do so. The Repub-
lican administration was taken to tasA
on it's expensive clerk hire system, af-
ter a law was passed against it, alleg-
Ing that this expense was increased
rather than otherwise. Referring to
the levy Of taxation, the speaker said
that under three years Of Republican
rule the people were taxed 81, 225, 900
more than during similar period on
Democratic administration. He then
put the question, WHO have provided
the most efficient officers in conducting
the affairs Of state?" and referred t6
the records for an answer. Scandal in
the treasury department was touched
upon, the officers and employees Of the
administration and their political
friends being charged with taking
money from the treasury for use in
private business and speculation. Mr..
O'Connor concluded as follows:
These are the scandals, these the
broken pledges, these the neglect oil
the peoples interests that the Repub-
hcan party had in view when it adopt
ed by majority vote the resolution
indorsing the present Republican adj
ministration. The nominees Of the
Democratic party are solemnly pledged
to correct these existing wrongs which

PHILADELPHIA, Oct 3.-Capt Warmers
English cricketers won the final match from
the gentlemen OF Philadelphia today, with
four wickets to spare. When stumps were

feet. With the loss of only two more wickets
they passed the Philadelphia total of 290 for
two innings, and closed their inning with
