WASHINGTON LETTER.


Boss Hanna will have q fight on
his hands when he returns to Wash
inaton, just fs hard as the one be
had in Ohio, and one in which he
cannot buy victory with cash. No.
tice has been served on Mr.. McKin-
ley by leading men in his party that
Hanna will be too heavy q load to
carry through another National
Campaign /; that his record was bad
enough before be made those speech
es in the Ohio campaign in defence
of trusts, and that it has since then
become an imperative necessity that
he should retire from the head of
the Republican National Commit
tee. Mr.. Mckinley, who in addi-
tion to considering himself under
many obligations, financial and 9TH
erwise to Hanna, is believed to be Q
little afraid of him, attempted to
argue with those who demanded
Hanna's scalp, but he was at once
told that it was not q case of argu-
ment; that he could, if so disposed, I,
give Hanna tip that would result
in his voluntary retirement, on ac-
count Of "his health" or any other
old thing, but that il he declined
to do so, an open fight against
Hanna would be started by some Of
the most prominent republicans in
Congress, as soon as the session
opened. Mr.. Mckinley did not say
what he would do, but shere is rea-
son 70 believe that be will stand By
Hanna. at least until convinced that
his opponents are strong enough to
down him. Consequently red hot
fight, in which democrats will be
interested spectators, is expected
during the coming session of Con-
gress. Whether it will result in q
defeat for Hanna will depend large
ly upon circumstances, but it may
play an important part in the legis-
lation Of the session, as Mr.. Nc
kinley will ask much Of Congress,
and the Republican msjority in
both House and Senate is entirely
too slim to leave room for any con-
siderable kicking out of the admin
istration traces.

the gold standard, but oppose the
