| Cleveland, O., Dec 1.-Concerning
the reports which have been in clrcu-
lation for several weeks past to the ef-
feet that Senator Hanna would not
succeed himself as chairman OF the
National Republican Committee, 1t
can be stated on the authority Of Mt.
Hannn's most intimate friends that he
has no desire to manage another cam
paign and that unless very strong
pressure Is brought to bear upon him
he will, in all probability, decline to
do so.
notwithstanding the published state
ments that many leading Republicans
throughout the country are opposed to
Mr.. Hanna's disappointment as chair
man OF the National Committee. 1t Is
known that he Is almost daily recelv-
Ing from influential party leaders, rep
country letters to the effect that he has
their fullest confidence and support
and urging that he Is the strongest
man available for the place.
Mr.. Hanna's closest friends, and In
deed the members of his own family,
believe. however. that the condition of
his health Is such that he should not
under any circumstances assume the
responsibility OF managing another
PreSldcntial campaign.
1t has been suggested that should
Mr.. Hanna decide not 40 accept re-
appointment as chairman that he be
made member Of the Executive Com
mittee. having personal charge OF the
campaign finances.
This would, 1t Is pointed out. relieve
Mr.. Hanna Of the arduous duties de-
volving upon him as chairman, and at
the same time give the National Com
mittce the benefit of his experience and
marked success in raising campaign
funds.

so many pr0fessed Christians TO be sat

He condemned the custom that pre-
