Senator Hanna Talks of
Mckinley Monument.
WANTSARCH DELAYED
Until the Memorial Is Com.
pleted at Canton--Former
Should Have Appropria.
ton From Congress.

While in Washington Friday Senator
Hanna made an effort to unravel the
Mckinley monument tangle. The SEN
ator Is of the opinion that II funds
for the Canton memorial and the
Washington arch are collected simul-
taneously there is bound to be more
or less confusion result. He believes
that the Washington arch should be
built by an appropriation from con
gress and that the monument In this
city should be left to the people OF
the nation. On this subject Wash
ington special to the Cleveland Plain
Dealer says:
After the cabinet meeting had
closed Mr.. Hanna entered the cabinet
room and explained at length to the
president and his official advisers that
there is some conflict between the Nc
Kinley monument association and the
memorial arch association. The people
of the country are in doubt as to which
association to send their contributions
He told the cabinet that 1t is the
earnest desire of the people of the mid
die west that a monument be erected
at Canton. and that when this is done
there will be every wish to cooperate
with the arch association in the work
that It is undertaking. From the Pa
cific coast and other points of the couri-
try remote from Canton there is said
to be strong feeling against a memo
rial that Is away from washington.
In the middle west the people want
Canton. and, between the two conflict
ing sentiments harm may be caused
unless there Is an understanding.
Senator Hanna informed the cabinet
that he had talked with number oi
congressman who expressed the strong
est desire to see memorial arch In
Washington, provided for by appropri-
alton by congress.

News Of the Capital.

Washington, Nov. 9.-The plans OF
the two associations formed for the
purpose OF erecting memorials to the
late President Mckinley, the monu.
ment at Canton and the arch in Wash
ington, were the subject Of an infor-
NAL conference between Senator Han.
ma and Secretary Cortelyou, repre-.
senting the Ohio organization, and
Commissioner H. B. f. MSeFarland,
of the Washington Memorial associa-
ton. There was a genHal compari-
son Of notes regarding the work un.
dertaken by the two bodies and an ex-
change of ideas as to the methods
adopted for raising money. An earn
est desire was expressed to avoid any
conflict Of the two organizations, as
the end sought by both associations
is the same, viz, the perpetuation Of
the memory of tho lamented presi.
dent. An effort will be made to pre-
vent any possible confusion or embar-
fassment in the collection of sub.
scriptions, and both organizations will
use their utmost efforts to accomplish
the purpose for which they were set
on foot. The conference showed that
both bodies are well organized to
prosecute the work undertaken. No
definite action was taken. as the gath.
ering was, as above stated. informal
and for purposes Of consultation.

Mr.. Hanna made his first visit to the
White House since the death of the

shortly after their arrival. he took
them into the cabinet room, where
they shook hands with the cabinet
officers.
Later while the cabinet was in ses.

the matter was demonstrated yester-
day, when members of the committee
and the Chief of Police were subjected
to considerable annoyance from reject
ed applicants.
There was also considerable criticism
Of the I~ntelligencer from friends of
City Sergeant John S. Ritz, who object
ed to giving the prosecuting attorney
sole credit for the fight against the
fake" hotels, in view of the stand
which Mr.. Ritz has publicly taken, and
his efforts already made to suppress the
eva. Chief Ritz said last night, when
seen by a Register reporter:
Il believe the committee means all
right, but I don't believe it did right
in permitting Prosecuting Attorney
Nesbitt to declare that he would not
be bound to secrecy before 1 came in,
and when / did appear, put me under
a promise of secrecy. If Mr.. Nesbitt is
in earnest he has had and still has an
opportunity to demonstrate his re-
formatory tendencies in certain local
tiles in Fulton, where the state of
affairs is much worse than in any part
of Wheeling.
THE public, l think, well knows my
disposition in this matter. l am not
in favor Of licensing vice, and to
license any of these hotels would be
doing that, in my estimation, and in
the estimation of the committee, too,
for now that a part of the business
transacted has been made public l feel
that l am at liberty to say that the
committee adopted a resolution to the
effect that it would not recommend a
license for any of these hotels, to any
person whatsoever, for the space of
n year.
IF the Council grants a hotel license
to these places it might as well grant
a liquor license, so far as immortality is
concerned. The only effective remedy
is to close them up altogether, not
even allowing a change of proprietors."
When Chief Ritz was asked to name
the fake" hotels, he also included
Bob" Clark's place, and Charles La
rue's hotel, both on the Second ward
market square. Action upon these ap-
plications was deferred until next Mon
day.

D%IsPLEAsURE MANIFESTED.

Concerning the Intelligencer's Re-
port of the Meeting of Petitions
and RemOnstrances Committee.
The In~telligencer, in its report of the
meeting of the committee on petitions
and circumstances, announces in bold
headlines that "Nesbitt's firm stand
against fake hotels was instrumental
in inducing the committee to reject six
applications. In the body of the article
the prosecuting attorney is given the
credit, land incidentally the members
of the committee"
Members of the committee expressed
themselves yesterday as being very
much displeased with the re-
port, which they construe into
an effort to belittle and re-
feet upon them. They say they per-
mitted MIR. Nesbitt to remain as a mat
ter of courtesy, and because he legally
represented the county, but that his
presence or protests in no wise affect
ed their action. Mr.. M. A. Chew, chair
man of the committee, said that the
flake" hotel applications would have
been rejected in any event. He en-
planned the reason for holding a scores
session, to be that the members wanted
to save themselves the annoyance Of
opportunities and solicitations from
persons whose applications were re-
jected. 1t was the intention to keep
the committees action secret until its
report was submitted to Council. Mr..
Chew said the wisdom of this view Of
