Mr.. HANNA ELECTED.

The election Of Marx A. Hans
ia by the Legislature of Ohio
yesterday, to succeed himself in
the United States Senate, occa-
sionS but little surprise to those
familiar with that gentleman S
conducting political campaigns.
When it was made known that
two or three votes were neces
sary for him to win the prize,
few doubted that he'd gather
them in, and the result has
shown the wisdom of that con-
clusion.
But the contest was bitter
one, and although Mr.. Hanna
has succeeded in being returned
to his seat in the Senate, it has
left sores which will take years
to heal. The fact that Mr..
Hanna has won will in no wise
help to heal the breach in the
Republican party Of Ohio. On
tie Contrary It will but widen
it. At no time has the party
been so deeply stirred since
the opening of the Senatorial
campaign which closed yesters
day, and all on account of
Hanna That the fight will
be continued even unto the next
nJu)nal campaign no one doubts,
and it remains to be seen to

1t was possibly knowledge of
this fact which greatly helped
Hanna S return to the Senate.

voted for the Senator yesterday

May Return I'm the Spring.

TT is just possible that the Montana
regiment and the other volunteers
J. stationed at Manila may come home
fn the spring. According to the WASH
1ngton correspondent of the New York
Sun. preparations are being made TO
send a number OF regiments Of regular
dnfantry and artillery to the Philippine
islands and some of the regiments have
been informally designated for station
there. The infantry regiments which
will almost certainly go are the 3rd.
4th. 9th. eth. Goth and cath. The 18th
and 18th may also be ordered, and one
Of the seven artillery regiments will be
sent across the Pacific. The orders for
the despatch of the troops will not be
issued until the definite conclusion OF
peace at Paris. but general preparations
are making so that there may be as lit
tie delay as possible when the time for
action comes. Several trnsports are
now at Manila. and these will be start
ed across the Pacific for San Francisco
very soon. None OF the regi-
ments now at Manila win be with
drawn until the arrival OF the regulars.
d. for the administration deems II mad
visable TO reduce the present garrison
in the Philippines. owing TO the threat
ened uprisings OF the insurgents against
our authority in the islands. No cav
airy regiments will be sent to the Phil
ippines. The transportation OF cavalry
. horses across the Pacific is an almost
Impossible task. n the slight need
which may exist for cavalry i'm the Phil
ippines does not warrant the undertake
ing. Inasmuch as most OF the available
transports are on the other side OF the
ocean. IL will be at least two months
before the regular troops destined for
she Orient can be landed at Marila or
any other port in the archipelago. II Is
evident. therefore. that none of the vol
unteers at Manila will be relieved from
duty there much before spring.

For ever FIVE years the silk skirt has

swish the better. We have been exa

a silk that will squeak like a sections
