Nevertheless the indications are that
Mr.. Hanna will speak in Mahoning just
the same. In matters regarding his own
desires and ambitions Hanna's word, as
expressed by Dick, is supreme.
The information now is that Senator
Hanna will be in Ohio to take personal
charge of the campaign as early as
Sunday next. A cablegram has been re-
ceived at the state headquarters saying
that he was to sail from Southampton
for New York yesterday. According to
schedule time he should arrive in New
York next Saturday. He will come di-
rect to Ohio and take up the reins of
management in person. 1t is not denied
by his friends here that Mr.. Hanna is
exercised at the situation, but efforts
are being made to have 1t appear that
he is confident of Republican victory,

he is more alarmed than he has been at

which defeat stared him in the face.
LABOR MEN ACTIVE.
4NO party III all OIlO campaign mas
ever found a more gratifying sentiment
toward 1t from the laboring classes than
that which greets the Democracy upon
the threshold of this campaign. The
working people of every section are
manifesting high degree of approval
for the platform and for the personnel
of the ticket. They recognize that both
are sincerely and consistently represen-
tative of the masses. Speaking of this
| feature of the situation today, Harry M.
Ogden, president of the Cincinnati Ty-
biographical union, said
ct have been in many sections of the
state within the last two weeks and 1
find that the trades unions are rapidly
taking their places in the ranks of the
Democracy for the battle of this year.
There has never been such a strong SEN
timent manifested by the unions in ia
vor Of any ticket as there is this year in
favor of the Democracy. There was
never any possibility of the labor organ
izations favoring the Republican ticket
in this fight. Nash, the tool Of Mark
Hanna, and the representative of the
trusts, was outsidethe pale Of their sup
port from the start. Since the princi-
pies of the State Labor convention's 8
platform have been incorporated in that
adopted by the Democracy at GAINESVILLE
the workingmen's organizations are all
coming into line for Hon. John r. Nc
Lean, who has ever been their friend.

the youngest daughter. Albert, the IA
vorite son, recently left for a tour OF
the world Cornelius Vanderbilt, Jr., the
eldest son, whose marriage to Miss Jen-
ME Wilson two years ago displeased his
father, was not present. A second
stroke of paralysis followed by heart
trouble was the cause of death. Will

millionaire, said this morning:
"The death of my brother was sud
den and unexpected. He was apparent

mense fortune.

WEEKLY CROP BULLETIN.

Prof. II. f. Wilkinson, dir &C.
tor OF the weather bureau, at
Vicksburg, Miss, sends us the
following summary for the week
ending Monday, June 8, 1899:
The weather has been warm
and, except for a generous show
er early in the week, quite dry.
The temperatures have ranged
about 2 to A degrees higher than
the normal, and the nights have
been somewhat warmer, giving
ideal growing weather.
Crop reports are much more
encouraging than for several
weeks except for gardens and
corn in the southern part of the
state, and for late. planted cotton
which has not shown above the
ground in many sections. The
early cotton has reached the
point where the absence of rain
does not affect 1t SO seriously, !,
and is being worked very extern
sively. The stand, although re-.
ports vary considerably with the
locality, is considered fair.
In the northern and middle dis
tricts corn is in a fairly good con-
dition, being ready to lay by in
many places; in the southern
district reports are not encour-
aging, although fair crop will
be harvested.
Oats are being harvested in the
southern section. The crop is a
poor one.

HE WAS IN ARREARS.

Last night a representative of
the Special was sitting on the in
side of the McColgan hotel, and,
as usual quite a large crowd of
men were occupying the seats
just outside. Something was
said about the Daily Special and
one gentleman was especially
bitter in his remarks. He, in
short, cursed the paper out from
start to finish. The reporter con-
suited the books at the office and
found that the man owed two
dollars on weekly subscription,
one dollar and ten cents on daily
subscription. and twelve dollars
and sixty cents on job work. The
gentleman talked on some time
and finally let the cat out of the
bag. He had recently been to
New Orleans and the reporter
had failed to make mention of
the fact. No doubt il some of

one would pay up. the Special
