When mortally stricken Mr.. Redford
was preparing to take g. cup OF tea his
wife was bringing him from the other
room. AS she approached him Mrs. Red
ford noticed that he appeared to be
5nsleep. No response came to her call,
and when upon investigation she realized
that he was unconscious she at once
dropped all arrangements for the celebra-
tion and dispatched messengers for phy-
sicians. DR.. Blanton and DR.. Wintree
came as soon as possible, but BEFORE tney
arrived he was dead.
A GREAT SHOCK.
The death of Mr. Redford In the midst
of the preparations for the festivities
comes as a great shock to his many
friends throughout the community.

CLEVELAND. O.. May Ex-senator
Hanna has decided to offer no further
opposition to a proposed resolution in the
coming Republican State Convention en-
dorsing the candidacy of President Roose-

decided upon late this afternoon. When
asked If he had heard from President

sion concerning his attitude in connec-
ton with the resolution Senator Hanna
made the following statement:
II am in receipt Of a telegram from
President Roosevelt. which indicates to
me. his desire to have the endorsement

ton Of his administration and candidacy.
In view of this. shall not oppose such
action by the convention. and have
telegraphed the President to that eff
fect.'' a
Senator Hanna positively declined to
further discuss the subject insisting that
the brief statement above quoted fully
covered the situation.
It is the general bielef, however, among
these close to the Senator that he still
doubts the advisability Of the adoption
of resolution endorsing President Roose-
velt's candidacy by this years conven-
ton. But 1t Is pointed out that in view
of the Presidents judgment and express
ed wishes Mr.. Hanna demonstrates that
his original position in the matter was
at no time prompted by personal antag-
onism to President Roosevelt.
