 Washington. Aug. 4.-(Special. .)-Advices from Ohio indicate that Tom L. Johns- tons star is beaming very brightly and ascending conspicuously. A visitor to Washington from Cleveland said today that fin the northern end of the State there seemed no doubt that Johnson would receive the nomination of the convention next week and that John w. Book walter of Springfield. would have the en- dorsement for United States Senator to succeeded Marcus Hanna, whom Mir. Johnson extremely desires to retire. The latest county conventions have been. largely favorable to the Cleveland mayor.

But it is still understood that Johnson will concentrate his efforts in the campaign to compass the defeat of sena- tor Hama. -s.
