until the boat leaves in the afternoon.
Mark Hanna is a very busy man
while he is at headquarters, and being
a man of business methods, he is able
with all the appliances and the ex-
perienced Office force with which he
has surrounded himself, TO turn off an
immense amount of business in a
short time.
Details for Others.
Senator Hanna has very lite to do
with details. He only concerns him.
self with the general plans Of the
campaign, and leaves TO his assistants
the working out of all the details. He
directs the work, just as the manager
of an immense business systemises
and then directs his work. The sew
eral departments are in charge OF
faithful and experienced employees, and
all that they require is an order from
the chairman, and the work directed
| is soon accomplished. An immense
amount of money is required in ma
tional campaign for the legitimate ex-
penses. The postage and express bills,
the printing and literary bureau. and
the spellbinders departments all abb
sorb an enormous amount of money.
| There is, however no complaint Of
shortness of funds.
Not SO Far Advanced.
The campaign on both sides does
not appear to be as well advanced
now as it was this time of the year
| four years ago. Early in August both
parties had held immense ratification
meetings in Madison Square Garden
in 1896, and Bryan had made his fam
Gus entry into what he then termed
the enemy's country. All this indi-
Gates a disposition on the part of the
managers to postpone the most active
work of the canvass until the weather
becomes more endurable. In 1896, Mr..
Bryan spoke to twenty thousand peo-
pie in the big Garden when the mer-
curry was sailing about the one hum
dred mark and there was not only the
greatest discomfort experienced by
his auditors but a number were over
come by the intense heat. Such ef-
fects as these induce the managers to
believe that the first OF September is
time enough to have the speak, IN
full sway.
Chairman Mcclure.
Chairman Mcclure is one of the BUS
lest men in town. He believe that he
has settled many of the misunder-
standings that existed and that he
will now soon have the leaders all
working harmoniously and most yig-
orously for the success of the ticket.
The chairman of the executive COM
mittee is an enthusiast himself, and
he always inspires his associates with
his vigor and earnestness. The DEM
ocratic Stat Committee is to make a
speaking campaign, which is contrary
to the advice of many of the old
leaders. But MCGUIRE is In the sad
die, and his views will prevail in the
management.
Gubnatorial CandiGat.
II Is very generally believed hat
b. B. Odell will be the Republican
candidate for Governor and this fact
is strengthened by the fact that while
he has not announced his willingness
to accept the nomination, no other
candidate has appeared to have any
considerable boom to his credit The
Democratic situation is different

is earnestly in favor of the nomina-
tion of Comptroller Coler while il has
been understood that Tammany Hall
would favor Senator Mackey, of Buff
falo. A few days ago, IL was an
nounced that the comptroller would
not consent to be a candidate. but
soon after conference was held com
posed chiefly of Senator Hills sup
porters, and IL was then said that Mr..
Coler had consented to take a differ
ent view of the matter and that if
there was danger of the Ramipo water
scheme coming to the front, that he

and Senator Mackey would be oppos-
ing aspirants for the nomination, the
former having the support of Senator
Hill, and the latter being backed by
Mr.. Croker and Tammany Hall.
The sna-chi-i>.
Thoughtful people have been led to
inquire how many Anarchists we have
in this city. The murderer of King
Humbert was a resident of Paterson.
N. J., until a few weeks ago, and IL
is known that he was on terms of In.
timacy with the Anarchists of this
city These people are not numerous,
but they are certainly dangerous, and
