A Speech from the Senator May he Read ut
the Columbus Convention.
COLUMBUS, o.. june 2o.-The Republican clans
Of Ohio arc gathering here tonight for the State
Convention In this city tomorrow. The conven-
ton would have been q tame affair except
for the fact that in the city of CleVe-
land Mayor McKisson. who led in the re-
volt against Hanna's election to the United
States Senate last winter and who was de-
nounced as a traitor to tho party, secured an i'm
dorsement of his course at the hands OF his con-
stituents by controlling tho delegation from
that county. HRnna's friends will be In Abso-
Lutte control of the convention and tho McKisson
delegates will be unseated. The McKisson peo-
pie expect no other result.
Gen. Charles II. Grosvenor will preside In
the place of Senator Hanna, who is do
tanned In Washington on account of
tho vote on tho Hawaiian annexation
resolution. and tho need of every friend
Of the national Administrator in tho Senate at
that time. 1t Is announced here, however, that
Major Charles Dick will road tho speech that
Senator Hanna would have delivered. which
will be accepted as tho keynote OF the campaign.
This will be an innovation.

say. Any attempt to criticise Gov. Bushnell, Ma

.BYNAYOF THE S(|EZ CANAL
REGULARS FOR MANILA WILL GO
THAT WAY.
The Distance is Greater, but There are
Compensating Advantages-Places
Where the Transports will Coal.

The War Department has practically
arranged to send endorsements to
General Otis, commanding the militia
ry forces in the Philippines, by way
of the Mediterranean and Suez canal,
instead of across the Pacific ocean
from San Francisco, as has been the
practice since the opening of the war
with Spain.
The proposed expedition will be or
ganized at New York City. and will
consist of three regiments of infantry
of the regular army, distributed be-
tween two or three of the largest
converted transports owned by the
government.
The Navy Department will probab-
ly be called upon for one or more war
ships in conveying the military trans
ports from New York as far as Gil
braltar. II is also probable that one
or more of the vessels of Admiral Dew
ey's fleet will meet the expedition at
Singapore and escort it to its destina-
ton at Manila. Stops will probably
be made on the voyage for coal and
provisions at Gibraltar. Port Said
Alden, Colombo and Singapore. Every
provision will be made for the care
and comfort of the troops on their
long voyage.
The distance over the proposed
route from New York to Manila is
about II COS nautical miles. while the
distance from San Francisco to Mani
la by way of Honolulu is 1850 nautical
miles. 1t is estimated that the Jour
ney by way of the Pacific ocean can
be made in about weeks time less
than by the other route, but there
are said to be compensating advantage
es which have induced the officials of
the War Department to consider ia
vorably the experiment of the Suez
canal route. As stated i'm the Presi-
dents message to Congress, it is the
policy OF the government to bring
home all the volunteer troops in the
Philippines and other outlying pos
sessions as soon as arrangements can
be made to fill their places with regu-
lars
