PREDICTS REPUBLICAN SUCCESS.
Chairman Hanna Says Mckinley Viii Have
An Increased Electoral Majority.

Cleveland, o., May 1.-The Leader re,
ceived from it's Washington correspondent
the first statement from Senator Hanna.
who is chairman Of the Republican nation
al committee, concerning the outlook OF
the coming Republican campaign, IRON a
Republican standpoint:
AS a result OF careful study Of the situa.
ton, | feel perfectly sale in making the pre-
diction at this time that Mckinley will be
reelected. There is no way Of figuring how
the Republicans can lose ia the coming con-
test il they put their shoulders TO the wheel
and are not imbued with the spirit Of over.
confidence in the successes OF late.
The price Of victory will be much harder
and more constant from the time the cam.
paign opens to election day. The Republi.
cans should make the same kind ola fight
they did in 1896.
THE spirit OF Republicans this year is OF
a most gratifying kind. At the Ohio state
convention, held in Columbus last week,
this spirit WAS manifested in a plain and
unmistakable manner. senator Fairbanks
who has just returned from the Indiana
convention, informs me that the Republi.
cans OF this state possess the same inspira.
ton. This is true of Republicans in every
state and all reports which have been re-
csiyed along this line are to the same ef-
feet.
an going over the list OF states that cast
their electoral votes for Mckinley four
years ago, | don't see any which will not
do the same this year, unless it be Ken
lucky. That state | am placing in the
doubtful column. although we certainly
purpose making every effort to carry it.
II regard Maryland, which the Demo.
Gratis are claiming already, as reasonably
certain to remain in the Republican col
umn. Besides holding our own in practic-
ally all the states that we carried In 1896,
we nave reason to believe that the Repub-
Leans will carry Kansas, South Dakota
and Washington, which went for Bryan
four years ago, while our chances are ex
%cellent. | am informed by Senators Shoup
and Carter, OF winning Idaho and Montana
the states they represent in the senate.
Altogether, am pleased with the out
look which could not be any more encour-
aging than it is"
