WASHINGTON. Oct 3, 1893 Some idea of the
panic existing in administration circles. on an-
count of the prospect of Republican defeat in
! the Congressional campaign, may be had from
| boss Hanna 5 estimate, after going over all the
| i"'"rmation in the possession OF the Republican
-.hEFessioh"i COMMITTEE that 1t "ouiu require
campaign fund OF 10000 to elect a Re
puoilcah majority OF me next House. Hanna
ia Chairman OF the National Committee, and,
under ordinary conditions, would have nothing
10 90 with tue congressman campaign. But
eXlst'hg conditions are not ordinary. IN the
contrary they are extraordinary, from MIR. Nc
hlnleS point OF view. Chairman Babcock, OF
the Congressional Committee, told Mr.. Mckin-
ley that he considered the light already lost
Then Hanna was telegraphed for and a-ked #
he could save the House for his party. He de-
cded tnat it would take 50, O1o, 900 to DO it, and
made out Il list of men that must put up that
amount. They a. the same men who furnish.
ed him the money he used so !aviShly two years
ago, and already they are being waited upon
and made to come down again, some of them
by Hanna himself and others 0y his agents.
