Democratic Finnnccs.-Very little is
being said about it. but it IS generally con-
coded that the Democratic campaign man
ayers will not be as hard up for funds this
year as they were in 1896. In the campaign
Of four years ago Senator Jones and his as
sOciayes had less than $500 coo all told.
This statement is based upon information
that came from one OF the men who
handled the finances in the last campo gn.
The same Authority is responsible for the
assertion that the bulk Of this amount
came 10 the National Committee when the
campaign was more than half over. Ii the
money had boen available at the bsgiun ng
Of the fight 1 is strongly con;eudcd by per-
sons with an Intimate acquaintance with
the conditions that Mr. Bryan would have
been elected or Mr.. Hanna would have had
10 spend ten millions or more for Mr.. Nc
Kinley. instead OF the five OF six millions
he is known to have spent. 1t is thought
that the Democrats this year can get as
much as two million dollars If it is shown
that that amount will be needed. Quite
half Of this. il is said, will be at the DIS
posal Of the Bryan campaign managers
within the next month. The bulk of his
will come from four or five men. so it is
reported. These men are Megs.s. Clark
and DAILY. Of Montana; Col. Moses C. Wet
more, of 81. Louis, ard two wealthy miners
in the West. Then It is stated that the
popular subscription plan, which has Teen
in operation for two years under the super
vision of the National Committee, has
netted about three hundred thousand dol
lars. which amount is now in the treasury
Of the committee at Chicago. So it is seen
that the Democratic organization will not
be nearly so poor thts year as it IVES in the
last campaign.

POLITICAL NOTES AND GOSSIP.
MIR. Hannn's Campaign Fund.-n

Mr.. Hanna's Campaign Fund.-It is
being noted by Democrats as a suspicious
sign that Republican organs all over the
country are printing stories to the effect
that the party managers are having hard
time collecting a campaign fund. The pur-
pose, OF course. is to counteract the effect
Of the general belief that Mr.. Hanna will
have at his disposal this year a great deal
more money than he had in 1896, when
conservative estimates placed the amount
a So Gee, coo. Some estimates ran as high
as SIS, coo, OOO, though it is now stated by
some of the best informed Democratic
managers that Mr. Hanna could not have
employed over six millions in electing Mr.
Mckinley. The Democrats understand very
well the sources of Mr.. Hanna's finances
this year. and they know. approximately.
the amounts various large trusts and other
corporations have promised to contribute.
Ii is said that these subscriptions are
based upon n sort Of sliding scale that VIII
be controlled altogether by the eXigencies
of the campaign. That is to say, all the
heavy contributors are to give certain
per cent of their promised subscriptions
i
the campaign proceeds and the need Of
money increases they are to come up with
another ihstallment. This matter. it is
stated, has been reduced to strict bust
ness basis in that the calls for install
ments are to be made through a special
committee, of which the Hon. Cornelius y.
Bliss. Of New York, is chairman. A men,
Der Cf his special committee, ii is said,
( viii make clear exhibit of the campaign
needs to certain trust, railroad. and finan-
cial magnates Of his acquaintance and the
/ work being divided up on this principle
can be carried out smoothly, effectively.
and without publicity. This does not in
| dicSie any lack of confidence on the part
! of the heavy contributors in either Mr..
| HanEa's judgment or integrity. hut the
method is resorted to solely for the pur-
| pose of eXpediting the collection and dis
! hursement OF the campaign fund. Mr.
Hanna will go to New York Wednesday
and there will have a conference with Mr..
Bliss and other gentlemen who have been
selected to finance the campaign. 1t is
not doubted that by the new method adopt
ed Mr.. Hanna can get all the cash he can
use to advantage in the campaign. The
work Will be started, il is said with only
few million in the treasury-maybe two
or three-but as the demands for money
grow the cash will be forthcoming up to
twenty million or more. If it is collected
and disbursed in driblets, as has been
planned, there will not be nearly so much
danger of the Democrats learning within
several million dollars how much money
| was used by the Republicans.
