being received at the state house.

other appOintee of Governor Bush
nell. today resigned as the trustee of
the state insane asylum at Athens.
The feeling of revenge is shown in the
legislative proceedings. Representa-
tive Bramley introduced a bill to re-
peal the ffty-year franchise law for
street railways in which Senator
Hanna is largely interested. Bramley
is a contractor who had large con-
tracts under the municipal administra-
ton of Mayor McKissOn, and other
members from Cleveland who are sup
porting Hanna are said to have meas
ures ready for charges and investiga-
tons at Cleveland that would afect

RUBBING IT IN.
Representative Jones of Stark coun-
ty, Republican who is opposing
Hanna, has been frequently reminded
that the county convention that nOmi-
mated him adopted strong resolutions
instructing him to support Hanna.
mittee on resolutions in that county
convention and declared himself then
for Hanna. Mr.. Jones today offered q
very strong Cuban resolution that is in
conflict with Senator Hanna's vote on
the Cuban question in the senate.
Representative Scott of Fulton cOun-
ty, who voted with the combine" to-
day and is opposing Senator Hanna's
reelection, was also instructed by
resolutions at the county convention
that nominated him. Some of ScOtt's
constituents today had the Fulton
county conventions resolutions pub
lished here in the local papers.
All the changes that are being sought
are anticipated from representatives.
1t is conceded that Senator Burke, one
of the Republican senators from Cleve-
land who has not Vet appeared, Will
be here TO vote against Hanna. His
attorney today presented his certificate
Of election to Lieutenant Governor
Jones just before the senate convened
The senate Will cast II votes for
Hanna and 10 against him. If Hanna
is no stronger in the house than the
Bowel ticket was today when Box

ONLY REPUBLICAN PRESENT.
When the senate re-assembled at 4

Republican in his seat and he was
there to report that his colleagues
were in conference. The joint resOlu-

bills and resolutions were offered. two

troduced by Republicans.
Both bodies adjourned until 10 a. m
tomorrow.
COMBINE CONTROLS.
In the senate the combine controlled
everything, but no test votes were
taken in the house after the organiza-
ton was completed. The feeling that
had been engendered during the pre-
