HANNA SAYS HE WAS MIsouo1ED.
corrects the Report of His Chicago Speech
on Trusts.

Cleveland. O., Sept. Ex-senator
Hanna left for New York this evening.
He will remain at the Republican
headquarters there for two or three
weeks. and will then return to Chicago.
In an interview to-day he said:
1.-The speech l made at Chicago on
the so-called trust issue was misquoted
and CARRIED. What l said was that
there were no trusts in the meaning of
the law. When l said that l did not
say that there are no combinations Ct
capital nor did | say that there are no
combinations that work in justice
to the people. This so-called trust
issue is nothing more than a bugaboo
OF Bryan's to catch votes. What
antitrust laws have beer enacted have
been enacted by the Republicans. On
the ~sC-called trust issue Bryan is on
the defensive. He should tell why the
Democratic party has never supported
nor proposed any legislation to
late the commercial combinations of
the country. Bryan can not defend
the Democratic party on that issue,
and it, with the issue of Imperialism,
will soon be relegated to the rear.
The money question will soon be the
paramount issue. Bryan will have to
meet that issue too"
Senator Hanna said he had not
decided to go on the stump in the
East, hut would do SO if he thought
best. He declared Furthermore that
he had issued no challenge to Mr..
Bryan for a joint debate, nor had he
challenged anybody to debate. How
ever, he said he was not afraid to
meet anybody on the issues of the
campaign.

WAR.SHIPS FOR CHINA.
America Will Make a Great Naval Demon.
stratiOn in the Far East.

Having paved the way for the re-
tirement of its army from Chin, Sc
soil. America has ordered a strong
increase of its naval forces in Chinese
waters. From guarding against
natives it has turned to guarding
against the foreigners.
Germany's proposition to demand
the delivery of the Chinese ring-leaders
in the recent riotous demonstration is
automatically d clined.
Russia's inquiries as to the course
this government will pursue relative
to the withdrawal of troops and the
opening of negotiations are answered
in a way which indicates that. while
America is determined 70 proceed
along lines which are entirely inpen-
dent, those lines will. in Il
be in accord with what Russia pro-
posed in its recent circular note to the
powers.
Companion to these notes. in -igui-
f~icance, is the formal 'nlcnt
from Mr. Long, the Secretary Of the
Navy. that our naval forces in both
Chinese and Philippine waters Will be
Immediately strengthened. Co-inciient
with this announcement the Secretary
OF the Navy gave access to orders Tor
ships now in American ports to pre-
pare for early assignment to the
Asiatic station.
The Importance of the naval demon
stration which has been decided IN
by the United States can not b. over
estimated. 1t is apparent that this
demonstration is not directed toward
China. but as one government official
stated tonight. toward the maritime
powers now having interests in the
Orient
We already have a repres .ntation
in those waters which is formidable
and little suspected by those outside
of naval circles who have not taken
a direct interest III the movements of
our ships and followed them closely.
Before reaching the decision which is
indicated in the notes made public
to-day, these elaborate naval prepar-
atiOrs Were made.

during the four years which have sence
elapsed. The evidence OF commence ana

ency about the human mind which leads
an individual to apply old principles to
new conditions and I was therefore not
surprised to find that those who left the
Republican party in 1896 on the money
question are now opposed to it on the
trust question, which has increased IN
