HANNA'S DARK HORSE
Report Current That He Will
Spring One on the Convention.

New York, Jan. 20.-The New York
Press (Republican and administrator
says:
Definite assurances were given today
by Senator Hanna to personal friends
that within a few days his attitude
relative to President Roosevelt's nomi-
nation would be known definitely. From
the same sources comes a report that
Senator Hanna is now turning toward
some other candidate who will be pit
ted against the president. Mr.. Hanna
believes the fight may be made more
effective in that manner Mr.. Hanna is
represented here as having said since
his return here that the pressure of
business interests against the nominal
ton of the PRESIDENTS overpowering, -
but that his own health will not per-
nit him to be a candidate. When in
Chicago several railroad presidents
urged him to announce his own candi-
dacy.
The New York Times Oemocratic)
says:
Friends of Senator Hanna declare
that while the senator meant it when
he said he would not be a candidate
for the Republican nomination for
president he will do everything in his
power to prevent the convention from
naming President Roosevelt, and will
urge in his stead "a man of the con-
sentative stripe. Senator Hanna ac-
cording to some of his closest friends,
has been sounding the financial and
business interests of the country very
closely of late, with the result that
he has become convinced that RooSe-
velt's nomination will mean the defeat
of the party at the polls. Senator Han
ma desires to continue as chairman of
the national committee and to manage
the coming campaign, they say, but
| will do so only II another than Mr..
Roosevelt is named.
The New York Herald Independently
| says:
Alarmed by the widening of the
| chasm between the friends of President
| Roosevelt and the men who are trying
| to induce Senator Hanna to become a
candidate for the nomination, several
Republicans of national reputation
| took steps yesterday to clarity the sit
uation These men have considered the
names of several others, who may be
invited to enter the race in the event

Grain Dealers Meet.

Atchison, Kas., Jan. 20.-Northeastern
Kansas grain dealers held a meeting
here this week One of the principal
matters under discussion was corn, and
it was the consensus of opinion that it
is not in the best condition, owing to
unfavorable weather while it was ma
turing last fall. Rain at that time
softened the grain, and it is in danger
of heating during slow shipments. The
proposed government inspection of
grain was also discussed.

Miller & Sons. of this place, bankers
and general merchants, have made an
assignment for the benefit of their
creditors. The liabilities of the firm
will aggregate about $4,000; their as
sets are about half that amount.
Miller & Sons have conducted an
extensive mercantile business here.
dealing in general merchandise, hard
ware and farm implements. In connec-
ton with the mercantile ventures they
also conducted private bank, which
was largely used for a depository by
the farmers of the community These
farmers are certain to lose heavily in
sums ranging from small amounts to
hundreds of dollars. The First Ma
tional Bank of Eldora was a corre
spondent of the New Providence insti-
tuition, and Miller & Sons account with
this bank has been overdrawn and the
bank has also loaned them sums of
money. The New Providence failure
will not, it is said, seriously affect the
Eldora bank.
The claim Is made that the deposits
of the bank We're lost backing E. r.
Winery, stockbuyer and feeder, who
failed few months ago and in an eff
fort to save him from failure. Miller &
Sons, it is alleged, followed Whinery's
fortunes to the end of their hope and
when he failed found themselves too
deeply involved to recover their own
financial balance.
The loss will fall principally on the
farmers who patronized the bank as
depositors. There is much excitement
and considerable open criticism here
and number of the victims of the
failure are in Eldora today to investi-
gate the affair as fully as possible in
the hope of saving something from the
wreck.
