Convention Meets Today--Plac-
ming For Party Control
In 1903 and 1904.
HANNA FOR THE PRESIDENCY.
Talk of His Nomination INDUCED In.
Convention Likely to Declare
Against Trusts That Fix Prices
Against Consumers.

Cleveland, May 27.-The Ohio Re-
publican convention convened here
today.
With the exception of Senator
Foraker, the Ohio Republican lead
ers were all here last night. Gov
ernor Nash, the temporary chairman,
General Grosvenor, the prospective
permanent chairman; Congressman
Dick, chairman of the state executive
committee, and other congressman
and leaders spent the evening at the
residence of Senator Hanna consider
ing disputed planks in the platform.
There are different forms of resolu-
tons on Cuban reciprocity, the trusts
and the tariff, but there are no great
marked differences Of opinion even
on these declarations. 1t is proposed
to oppose all trusts that fix prices
against consumers, but not to oppose
such combinations as save expenses
in production. Those insisting on a
reduction of the tariff on industries
that they claim no longer need pro-
lection do want to go further than to
recommend such reductions as con-
gress may see fit to make without
specifying where or how congress
should reduce the same. Cuban reci-
procity is the most disputed point be
fore the platform makers.
Next year members Of the legisla-
ture that choose the successor to
Hanna are elected with full state
ticket and oAs of the purposes Of the
leaders this year is to eecure the cno-
troll Of the party machinery for the
important state contest OF 1908 and
for the presidential election Of 1904.
The Hanna men claimed last night
that they will secure at the district
meetings today Is out OF the Il mem
bers Of the. state central committee.
Much comment was for Hanna for
senator to succeed himself next year
and for president the following year.

STRIKERS QUITTING REGION.
A Number Leave For eituminous
Fields-Some Engineers and Fire
men Won't Strike.

Mahanoy City, Pa. May 27.-
Despite President Mitchell's warning
against the migration of miners to
the bituminous coal fields more strik-
ers left this section yesterday for
that region than on any one day since
the inauguration of the present sus-
pension at the anthracite mines.
Much apprehension is felt in Unit
ed Mine Workers circles here at the
action Of the colliery engineers and
pumpmen at Shamokin and those in
the employ of the Lehigh Coal and
Navigation company in voting not to
quit work on June for the establish
ment Of an eight-hour day. Mass
meetings will be held here today to
discuss this phase of the situation.
Last night the Philadelphia and
Reading Coal and Iron company al
legged that it had found bosses to man
the pumps and engines in this region.
Individual operators are making ap-
plication for coal and iron police to
be stationed at their collieries. More
than hundred armed officers will be
sworn in this week.

1t Was Thought 30 to 80 We're Still
In Mine Last Night.

Fernie, B. c., May 27.-Wi.h all ex-

hour shifts. the clearing of the i'll
fated workings at Coal Creek mine
advanced yesterday. No. slope was
penetrated to its furthest extremity
and all remaining bodies removed.
No. slope and workings were being
cleared rapidly, and it was expected
that by this morning the bodies will
have been removed.
Seventy-one had been recovered

naming varied from 40 to so. There
is great diversity of opinion as to the
probable cause of the explosion, and
formal investigation will be neces
