constituents to do so and that he was
not like some Of the political har-
lots" In this legislature, who disregard
ed their pledges to the people. The
bill was amended and passed.
Among the representatives during
the afternoon there was considerable
agitation of a proposition to reorganize
the house by ousting Speaker Mason
and all other officers Of that body that
had been elected by the fusion ten
days ago. 1t was claimed that the
fifty-siX representatives who voted for
Hanna today and constituted ma
jority Of three in the house would
stand together for that purpose. No
plans for the reorganization Of the
senate are considered for the reason
that Senator Burke continues to CO.
operate with the Democrats which
leaves that body standing Is to II as it
was organized. If Senator Burke CO.
operated with the other Republicans,
the senate would stand a tie poliui-
cally and could not be reorganized.
At the headquarters Of the opposition
tonight Mayor Robert e. McKisson of
Cleveland, the defeated candidate for
senator. made the following statement
for the Associated Press:
In the senatorial contest, just closed. the
question at issue has been whether the true
principles OF the Republican party should
prevail or whether trusts and monopolies
should have their way. Mr.. Hanna succeeded
simply because he brought to his aid all
the powerful influences OF capital site gresd
OF which he is a clear representative. By
reason Of the interests for which Mr. Hanna
stood, the Republican members of the gen
eral assembly, who refused to enter the eau
Gus, felt that they would not support him for
the high Office of United States senator and
unanimously selected me last Monday nigh.
to stand as their candidate. The Democrats
being in the minority realized that it was
impossible for them to elect any candidate
Of their own party. They were therefore
ready to support any Republican who would
be willing to represent the common citizens
OF our commonwealth in preference to selfish
monopolies or class interests. After 1 had
been unanimously chosen by the Republican
members, referred TO, as their candidate, the
Democrats requested me to appear and give
my general views OF the financial question.
l did SO and there made the following state
ments and no others
First, that l was not in favor OF mono

Second. that 1 was not In favor of Secre-
tary Cages plan for destroying the use OF

Third, that was not in favor Of giving
additional power and privileges to national
banks.
Fourth. that I would stand in favor OF the
people at ell times and against monopo,ies."

MAY CONCEDE DEMAND.
Yale Likely to Enter Into Two
Years Agreement.

NEW HAVEN, Conn. Jan. 12.-There are
Btrolg indications that Yale will grant Cor
nell's request and make an agreement with
that university to row for two years instead
of one, as was provided for by the terms of
Yales challenge to Cornell. Capt. Payne
Whitney, of the Yale crew, said today that
nothing had been heard officially from Cor
nell and that he must decline for the present
to talk on the reported action of the Cornell
Rthletic council last night He would not say
whether Yale would make two years agree
ment with Cornell
The under graduate sentiment here is ia ia
vor of a two years agreement withCornell, pro-
vided the race Of 1899, as well as the contest
this season, be at New London. Yale has had
enough Of POughkeepsie, and the college in
general would rather have a race with the
University Of Wisconsin at New London than
Dne with both Cornell and Harvard at Pough-
keeDsie.
If Cornell requests a two years agreement
with Yale, both races to take place at New
London, where Yale and Harvard are under
engagement to row for four years more at
least, the question of a Yale-Cornell race
Tor the coming two years will probably be ia
vorably considered at once. 1t now looks as
If another Yale-Harvard- Cornell conference
would be necessary to consider the complex
situation which Cornell has made of Yale's
challenge.

YALE AND CORNELL.
Responsibility for IA Race Placed
Upon the Blue.

ITHACA, y. Y, Jan. 12.-Interviews with
persons who know definitely what action the
Cornell Athletic council took last night in
regard to Yale's challenge for a boat race in
dictate that there has been a solution OF the
aquatic situation. Cornell will not row at
New London a single race without some pro-
lection for the future. Yale, at the same
time, has signiffed that she would not give
Cornell an agreement for a term of years
To avoid Yale's objections to protect herself
Cornell then sent the blue a communication
to this effect:
I'VE, will gladly accept your invitation to
London course on the date named, but but mas
much as you have stated the conditions for
this years race, it is understood in accept
ing this invitation that Cornell shall name
the conditions of the race next year."
Such reply comedies everything to Yale
this year and leaves to YaIe's honor and
craftsmanship. instead of to an agreement,
her relation to Cornell in the future. 1t es-
tablishes between Yale and Cornell the same
sort of an understanding as exists between
Harvard and Yale 1t demands nothing from
the blue and puts Cornell squarely before
the public as being truly sportsmanlike

MICHAEL'S PLANS.

Visit to Wales.

CHICAGO, Jan. Jimmy Michael is in
this, city and will busy himself here for two
weeks looking after the construction of Ger
tain pacing machines. Michael is riding, for
a local tire firm, and is undoubtedly here
1fso to make terms for another year. The
little racing wonder stopped at the Clifton
house but did not register. Michael con-
1irmed the reports that he would return to
his former home in Wales shortly and exx-
poets to sail from New York in a couple
of weeks. He had little to say OF his pans
for the next season, but is determined to
limit the number Of races. Manager Shafer
thinks that the boy is in q position to race
only the best there is, and newcomers must
make a showing against some Of the stars
he has defeated before he viii. take them up.
Regarding Tom L!nton,s5 visit here the md md
get would say little. He does not believe
that his former rival has gone back much
on form and thinks he should give McDqffie
and some Of the others a good race. TaY!Cre
is a crackerjack, he admits almost enthusi-
astically, but adds that he seems young and
inexperience. If some good trainer could get
hold Of him for a season, he would make
world-beater. Michael viii return from
Wales in March or the first Of April, and
viii, do no training abroad.
