POLITICAL NOTES AND GOSSIP.
Is SIR. Hanna sick-strappe stor;

Is Hr Hanna sick:-Strange stories
reach Washington from New York con-
corning the health and habits of the Hon
Mark Hanna With marked elaboration of
detail story was given publicity yesiar-
day to the effect that Mr.. Hanna is se-::
ously threatened with collapse and that,
upon the authority OF one of his close
campaign associates it can be stated that
he may resign the craftsmanship of the
Republican National Committee. Further
more, it is asserted that Mr.. Hanna's phys
zeal condition largely is due to 'disap
pointmerts and worry over his campaign
work" Specifically it is alleged that the
/ death of Coils p. Huntington has caused
him both disappointment" and worry.
If MIR. Hanna is thinking of throwing up
the job as Mr.. McKinley's chief political
adviser and manager it is probaese that
the allegation as, to the effect Hunting
tons death has had upon the campaign is
the keynote of the situation. Obviously
there is serious hitch somewhere along
the line-a cog loose in some part of the
Republican machinery. Else Mr.. Hanna
would not tarry so long in the East. He
has been in New York now nearly a month,
when he should have been at headquar-
ters in Chicago two weeks ago. Naturally
the question is being asked. is it possible
that the Republican organization is hard
pressed for furds? And if that is the
case, what does it denote? No victorious
party has ever lacked sufficient funds for
campaign purposes. Whenever a party is
on the high road to success there Is no
difficulty in raising all the money re-
CURED. Men of wealth and men OF small
means who believe a party and its can
didgtes are right, and therefore, are des-
tined to win, do not have 10 be held up
for the cash needed to prosecute 4 cam
paign. Now. it is known that a few days
before his death Coils p. Huntington
promised to contribute to the Mckinley
campaign fund frcm his own immense for
tune $3.50. GOO, and to secure from rich men
interested with him in obstructing 18th
milan canal legislation $4,000 more, thus
making from that one source the gooGly
contribution of $1,000, 900. Mr.. Hunting
tons death apparently has deprived Mr..
Hanna of the certainty of $1,000 600 with
which to start the campaign for Mr.. Nc
kinley and arouse the Republican masses
from a condition of indifference which the
Hannaites variously define as "ovoScon-
fidenee" and apathy. Can il be posi-
bic that the trusts have baked? These
institutions are the most finely organized
concerns in the country. Their means OF
information raInify every interest OF the
nation. They can learn quickly the drift
OF popular sentiment. They never play
losing game. While 1t is argued, the re-
election of Mr. Mckinley would mean pro-
fit to the trusts, yet if Mckinley is defeat
ed and they have put up money for his re-
election that money is thrown away. the
trusts do not throw money away. con-
trary to the popular belief This RAY ac-
count for Mr. Hanna's dispirited condition

The Alarm of Hanna.

(FrOm the New orleans StaIes.)
The ringing ard patriotic speech of Bryan and
the unulistakable drift Of the independent and
German American vote to the Democratic party
have made the Hon Marcus Alonzo Hanna a very
unhappy man. He has discovered to his disgust
that the woods are not on fire for Mckinley this
year. a was the case in 1916. Things not at
all to his liking, and he is alarmed by tie indii-
ference which exists among the rank and file Of
the Republican party in the Eastern and Western
states

Cnrmack for senntor.-The with

torial race in Tennessee leaves the field
clear for the Hon. Edward Ward Carmack
of Memphis. This calls attention to the
fact -.>at Mr. Carmack's political career
is one Of the most brilliant and promising
of any man Of his time. Mr.. Carmack
has been an active participant in politics
for only six years. during which time he
has served two terms in Congress and is
now winding up his third term only to step
from the House into the Senate. He is

Hundreds of men prominent in iegiti-

helped to elect Mr.. Mckinley in 1896. be-
cause OF their unscientifc decisions on
the gold question, have f3cked to the
Bryan banner in 1900 1t viii be observed
however. that not one of them is iden-
titled with any oppressive trust. On the
other hand we find Ryan, the partner of
EIkins. Widener & Yerkes. who, until four
years ago, was Democrat, bowling loud
ly for Mckinley and Roosevelt. He justly
argues that, If the trusts should be kicked
out of power at the polls in November
street car magnates may not be always
able to monopolze all American urban
transportation facilities 1t is entirely
logical for men like Ryan. Rockefeller

Foreign Titles and Political EIigi-
biIify.

One of the small and idiotic sensations
that regularly crop out with the recurrence
Of national political campaigns has been
produced in the West. Some escaped defee-
tive has discovered that the middle of the
road Populist candidate for President,
Wharton Barker, is ineligible to the office
because he once accepted the decoration of
St. Wenceslas from the Gar OF Russia. On
quite different grounds Mr.. Barker has as
little chance of election as he has of get
ting a monopoly OF railway building in
China, through his once c'ose associate,
Count" Mitkiewicz. But as a private citi-
zen he might have accepted all the orders
and titular distinctions in Europe without
affecting his eligibility for the Presidential
or any other national or local office in the
gift of our Government and people. Para
Constitution reads:
''No title of nobility shall be granted by the
United States: and no person holding any Office
OF profit trust under them, shall, without the
consent. of the Congress, accept OF any present,
emolument, Office title Of any kind whatever,
from any king. prince. or foreign State
The prohibition extends only to parsons
in the military. civil. or judicial service of
the Government. 1t does not in any way
apply to other Americans. If Mr.. Mckinley
were out of office today. and his friends.
Archbishop Ireland, Archbishop Chapelle,
and Senator Elkins were to induce the Pope
to create him titular Prince of Carton. it
would not in the least diminish his capacity
and right to become President supposing
he could secure the necessary number of
votes in the electoral College

Bryan and the Sennte.-It has been
generally understood all along that if Mr..
Bryan were defeated for the Presidency
this year he would be elected to the Senate
by the Nebraska Legislature. which the
Fusionlsts feel certain of capturing in Nc
yember The alleged tacit agreement
was said TO have been that Senator Allen
was to be reelected on behalf of the Popu-
lists. and Mr.. Bryan was TO be chosen on
behalf of the Democrats. But that theory
appears to have been shattered by a recent
interesting event in Nebraska The Hon.
G. NJ Hitchcock. stout Democrat, sans
frills. ami loyal friend of Bryan sans re-
prOchc has announced his candidacy for
the Senate. indicating plainly that if Mr..
Bryan is defeated for the Presidency he
Will not ask to be sent to the Senate. This
is predicated upon the reasonable hypotne-
sis that Mr. Hitchcock would not do any
thing that is calculated Ia embarrass MIR.
Bryan in any way, and that, therefore,
before he announced his candidacy for the
Senate he learned that DIR. Bryan would
not be an applicant for thGt position il he
should miss the White House. Mr. Hitch
cock applied for the appointment or the
death Of Senator-elect Hayward. and it ia
said that he would have received it from
Governor Poynter but for Mr.. Bryan's in
terce ssion for Senator Allen. This. how
ever. did not cause the least estrangemenI
btween Hitchcock and Bryan. indicating
what a perfect understanding exists be-
tween them

How About 4hi-.-1t was predict,

How About 1his.-It was predicted
that the politics of Pennsylvania would
become worse mixed than ever as soon as
the Hon. Joseph Croker Sibley got set
lied squarely on his feet in the Repub-
lican party, after his sudden and startling
flop. And now that has come to pass. For
example, here is story reciting with
great circumstantiality of detail the allie
CATION that the Standard Oil Company, the
National Guard. and Sibley have formed
a conspiracy for the reelection OF quay
to the Senate. After this is accomplished,
so runs this headIess horseman story,
Uncle joe" is 10 be elected Governor OF
the State aud then succeed Quay in the
Senate. TIE Hon. John WanamakeTs
newspaper was the first to publish Tie
story and It is believed that no less
romaneer tnan Mr. Arthur McEwen could
have inverted it. 1t is a pleasing. not t6
say thrilling. narrative but it lacks il
the essential element OF resemblance tG
facts. It is very well understood that
when Quay was refused admission to the
Senate last winter by Administration
votes 1t was due to the fact that the
Standard Oil Company had dissolved part
nership with him. and instead Of dealing
with the Republican organization through
Quay in future--as ii had done for SO
many years-the great monopoly had re-
solved to do business at first hand by
dealing with Mr.. Hanna, as the acknowl-
edged and undispute3 toss of the Rep'Ib-
Hcan machine. Hence. it is not consid-
cred likely that The Standard so soon
would abandon it's new partnership and
resume relations with the old. Uncle
Joe" Sibley ofreourse. is one of the Stand
ard Oil magnates. and as such tried in
vain TO run the Democratic party; and,
of course. Uncle Joe" will form palit-
ical partnership with anybody that can
bring votes to him and influence legisls-
ton for the oil monopoly. But when he
gets the votes and the legislation, then
your Uncle Joseph is liable to grow &C.
centric and. just for the fun of the thing,
form new alliances. Still. this is a case
in which Sibley could not act for the
Standard on Company without infuriat
ing Mr. Hanna and the other Administra-
ton people. and it cannot be believed that
the Standard would care to run such a
risk as this at the present time The real
fact seems to be that Mr. Quay is. for the
first time In his political career. strug-
Cling against the powerful opposition of
the Standard Oil Company. and by that
token the chances are all against his re-
turn to the Senate
