Since the scene in the long room at
Castle Rudisdorf. nve weeks had slipped
by. and the preparations for the wedding
were fast progressing toward completion.
Six short years ago the occurrence OF
such an event would have transformed
the ancient castle into a veritable bee
hive. In every corner OF which workmen
would have been busy ornamenting and
arranging the grand old rooms and
grounds for the great and happy occa-

have found his bride surrounded by pom

DICK MAY
SUCCEED
HANNA.

Columbus, o.. Feb. 1s.--There is a grow
|ing feeling here that the question OF a
successor to United States Senator Hanna
will not precpltate such a fight as had
been expected. 1t is now believed that
when the time for the balloting arrives
3Congressman Charles Dick will prove Ia
Do the man.
The Republicans are expected TO eau
bus a week from the coming Saturday
hight, and IL is believed that they will
decide 10 elect a senator for both the long
Pnd the short terms, despite the fact that
fheir right TO elect for the long term
~ this time Is questioned.
A leader high I'm the Republican party
yesterday told an interesting story which
makes II reasonable 10 believe that Dick
will be the man chosen as senator The
Itory as told conforms TO certain known
facts. The gentleman said that weel.
before the last Republican state conven-
ion was held I'm Columbus n conference
occurred at n residence in Akron between
fessrs. Hanna, Herrlck and Dick.
Senator Hanna at the time had misgiv-
ngs as TO the time ne had TO live and
paid 10 Herrick and Dick that he con-
idered them as his boys and expected
hem 10 take up his work, which they
both knew.
With respect 10 Herrick, II is said that
Ianna was following out Mckinley 3
wishes I'm taking care OF the present gov
(rnor There was a demand for recog-
ition for Warren @. Harding that was
90 strong 10 be overlooked. ana IL was
greed In the conference that lIerrick
hould be the nominee for governor.
There was also distinct understanding
hat Herrick should not voluntarily re-
nquish the governorship chair, as that
rould throw the office into the hands OF
he Foraker element OF the party by
baking Harding governor
There were certain agreement 10 pe
arried out and a change In the gov
rnor's office would violate these prom
hes. Hanna was anxious 10 carry Cuya-
oga county. and by making the conces-
on to his opponents I'm Hardings nomi-
alton he believed that he would be able
b do So
For this reason II Is believed that Gov
tnor Herrick cannot entertain for an in
ant the idea OF gong TO the senate.
nd the Hanna followers. including Her
ok himself. must support Dick for the
enatorship. While many names are be-
" mentioned. all Is mere speculation and
lose who give the situation serious con-
deration are growing firmer In the be-
bf that Dick will be the man.

TO ISSUE HAGUE CALL.
President Roosevelt Will Invite Pow.
ers to Second Peace
Conference.

Washington, Sept. 26.-President
Roosevelt at an early date will ask the
nations Of the world to join in sec
ond congress at The Hague for the
promotion of international arbitration
The president made this announce
ment Saturday afternoon in a. speech
to the delegates of the Interparliamen-
tary Union, who had just presented to
him the resolutions adopted by the re-
cent council in St. Louis.
In the addresses that preceded the
formal presentation of the resolutions,
great stress was laid on the fact that
the action of the United States in re-
ferring the Venezuela controversy to
The Hague tribunal, together with the
Plus fund precedent, alone saved the
life OF the international organization
For this reason it was deemed most
fitting that President Roosevelt should
take the initiative in reviving The
Hague conference.
Il feel, as l am sure you do" said
President Roosevelt in his address ac-
cepting the task, "that our efforts
should take the shape of pushing for
ward toward completing the work al
ready begun at The Hague and that
whatever is now done should appear
not as something divergent therefrom,
but as continuation thereof
The presidents acceptance of the
terms of the resolution and the an
nouncement of his purpose to promote
the peace of the world by inviting all
nations to participate in a second
peace conference, whose work should
be supplemental to that of The Hague
conference, was received by those
present with enthusiastic applause

FAIRBANKS ACCEPTS.
Synopsis of Republican Vice Presi-
Dental Candidates Letter Ac-
cepting the Honor.

indianapolis, Ind, Sept. 22.-Sen-
ator Fairbanks letter of acceptance
has been given to the public through
Hon. Elihu Root, chairman of the noti-
hcatlon committee. In it the republic
can vice presidential nominee sticks
closely to a treatment of the various
planks Of the republican platform, and
outlines the policies of the party in the
future by what it has dore in the past
seven years. In commenting upon the
work OF the state department during
that time, he refers to the conclusion
of 30 different treaties, among which
he mentions the Hay-Pauncefote
treaty, superseding the Clayton-Bul-
Wer convention; the Panama canal
treaty; the trade convention with Chi
ma and Cuba, and the Alaskan boun-
dairy treaty. These treaties, he be-
lieves, point to the efficiency of repub-
lican diplomacy
Senator Fairbanks finds but one is
sue which the democrats have raised.
That is the tariff. He does not believe
the voters of the country, either the
OL0PAOy1uS CldSSSS OT Inc employees.
wish to cut the tariff schedules to such
an extent as to bring foreign labor in
to competition with American labor.
He says the republican party, as the
inaugurators of the protective system
under which America has expanded
industrially and commercially, is the
only party to be entrusted with the
regulation of this important subject.
Other planks which he deals with at
considerable length are those relating
to the maintenance of the gold stan
dard; the regulation of trusts and the
enforcement of the Sherman antitrust
law, and the Interstate commerce laws,
charging the democratic party with
having done nothing towards safe
guarding legitimate interests in these
directions. He refutes the charge Of
extravaganza in government eXpendi-
lures; applauds the presidents course
in dealing with the instruction in
Panama and in the government of the
Philippines.
The complete letter is a document OF
some 1000 words
