PUT IN THE FIELD-LITTLE WILL BE
DONE FOR SEVERAL WEEKS

Pittsburg June Ex-senator Hanna, chairman
Of the Republican National Committee was in
the city for a short time to-day on the way from
Philadelphia to Cleveland, and talked at length
the plans Of the campaign. He said:
have been assailed on every hand by the
question to what States we will win over
from the Democrats, and would like 10 tell the
newspapers and would like TO have them tell
every one in the country who is interested in the
campaign that the Grand Old Party this year
will go after its opponents wherever they are
found. No stronger ticket ever placed in
the field. l would not like TO predict the ma
jority that will go TO Mckinley and Roosevelt
ing any forecasts as to the result of this cam
paign. However, will carry Kentucky, GOe-
bel law or no GOebel law. California will vfndi-
cate itself. Up in the Northwest the Repub-
Hcans Will have difficulty in holding sway
There is no doubt to the turn things will take
In the East
Asked to his opinion of the result Of the
fight in Nebraska, the Senator replied: I'VE will
try hard to keep Bryans State in the righteous
column, too"
1t will not be extraordinarily early cam
paign Senator Hanna stated, as very little will
imply that the Republicans would wait on the
opening manPuVreS of the Democrats before
any active steps would be taken. About August
l, he said. the issues of the campaign will be
clearly defined, and the National managers
would then be ready to cooperate with the
committees in the various States. September
l will see the red fire burning and all the drums
will be beating before fortnight later" was the
Senator's comment when questioned regarding
the time OF the opening Of the campaign

TO meet Croker and that he sent Senator Grady

OF the last passengers to leave the ship When
the vessel reached the pier several of Mr.
Croker's friends rushed downstairs to greet
him. Carroll did not. Soon afterward Grady
came up and said to him: Go on down; II is
all right" Carroll started, but hesitated and
Grady pushed him ahead. While Carroll was
downstairs Larry Delmour was asked why he
didn't go down and Croker He replied
grimly: Il don't need to- Seine others need
10 see him worse than ! do l don't have to
explain anything" Mr.. Delmour also made some
other remarks that would tend to indicate that
he believed Carroll longer to be leader
MAY TAKE ACTIVE CHARGE

take active charge of the organization now that
he is here. and there will be no need of a deputy
leader. There will be nothing said but Carroll

then said that he bought stock in PHILADELPHIA
ice company some time ago. II so testified be-
fore the Mazet Committee" he went on 81
bought il investment. I considered II To
be as good any that could be found at the
time. and had any number Of offers for it. I
bought the stock long before the increase of the
price of ice. and before the formation of the
trust"
May it be understood that you sold this
stock?"
That's a question must decline to answer. -
Mr.. Croker responded. with a smile. A few min
utes later. however he tacitIy admitted tlat he
still held the stock
Don't you think the Ice Trust has put W.
prices TO an exorbitant extent?"
1T certainly does seem a tremendous price
but don't care TO make any comment upon It
