WASHINGTON. d. c.. November IL
(special.)-The rumor recently published
20 the effect that a strong effort would
be made by leading Republicans to re-
tire Senator Hanna from the chairman
ship Of the National Committee Of that
party IS more than confirmed by incom-
Ing Republican members of Congress
Apart from the singing rebuke he re-
ceived from the voters Of his own county
in the recent gubernatoral election in
Ohio. his declarations on trusts, in the
opinion Of leading Republicans, make
him a burden for the party 90 carry, if
IL is proposed 90 donounce trusts in gene
raj terms in the next Republican plat
form. For this reason it is the intention
TO hold a conference Of the leaders. with
the view Of divorcing Hanna from the
management Of the presidential cam
paign OF 1900

Presidents mind and to bring him around

men of the party however, is TO depose
Mr. Hanna, and, If necessary, Mr.. Hanna
himself will be made 10 understand that
his continuance as the presidential cam
paign leader will, in their judgment, be
preJudicial to the interests OF the party.
