SURPRISE was expressed in some
quarters at Mark Hanna's bold declara-
ton in favor of trusts. Hanna would
be an migrate indeed not to defend the
trusts. It was the trusts which sup
piled the millions with which Hanna
successfully conducted the most cor

trust alone contributed million dol
lars to this corruption fund-with
the distinct understanding that it be
allowed to write the sugar clause of
the Dingley bill. The change in the
sugar schedule, under the agreement
with Chairman Hanna. cost the Amer
lean people $50, 600, 900, leaving the
trust clear profit on its contribution
to the Mckinley campaign fund of
$19, 900, 900. Hanna knows where he
is to get his campaign Doodle next
year. OF course he will stand by
the trusts, and go will Hanna's can
