tLeIe learned that feeling that Sen
atcr Hanna would be unable to take
up the GrduOus work OF a campaign
even in the event of his recovery
President Roosevelt and his advisers
had determined to ask Governor Frank

Governor Crane. of Massachusetts. 10
take charge of the campaign if PTesi-
dent Roosevelt is nominated for the
presidency.
They have further chosen Grdeme
Stewart as director Of the Republican
fight in the west, with headquarters
at Chicago. Secretary Shaw's abrupt
return TO Washington is taken by To-
cal politicians 20 mean that the presi-
dent was deeply concerned over the
fOreshadowed absence of Hanna from
active campaigning ard perhaps the
loss Of his counsel through death.
V lille Hanna was never a Roosevelt
man, all men who took part in the
party councils agreed that for the sake
of the party he would work for Roose-
yeit's success if the present chief ex-
ecutive receives the nomination.

finally. at precisely 6:4O p. III. the SEN

Those in the death chamber wept,

along the long corridor Of the hotel to
the waiting crowd of newspaper men.

NAVAL BATTLE AT CHEMULPO
Story of the Fight in Which the VarIag
and Ilorietz Engaged.


Story of the Fight in which the VarIag
and NOrietz Engaged.
London, Feb. ia Seoul dispatch
dated Feb. - gives the following ac-
count of the battle off Chemulpo which
resulted in the loss of the Russian
cruiser Variag and the gunboat KO-
rietZ:
During the night of Feb. $ the Jap
anese landed 1900 men at Chemulpo.
and on the morning of the 9th three
Japanese cruisers, four gunboats and
eight torpedo boat destroyers. ;under
command of Admiral Uriu, apprOa ched
the hlrbor, but did not enter The
KOrietz and Nariag We're lying ill the
harbor.
The Japanese admiral gave them un-
til noon to come out. Both Russian
vessels cleared for action. All the
shipping in the harbor was notified by
Admiral Uriu TO get out of the firing
line. There was in the harbOr also
the British cruiser Talbot. the French
cruiser Pascal. the Italian cruiser Ell
ba and the United States gunbOat
Nicksburg The Nariag and Korietz
got under way and steamed out of
the harbOr The crew Of the English
warship cheered them as they went
out to fight.
When the Russians were four miles
out the Japanese threw Il shot across
their bows. but they did not stop.
Heavy firing then began on both sides.
The Nariag turned her brOadside loose
at 11:jJ a. III. Then the Nariag turned
at right angles To the westward and
steamed a short distance al if to make
the beach. but was seen to suddenly
turn again east and give the enemy
her other brOadside.
The Japanese continued firing until
12:22. when the Nariag was seen to
be on fire near the stern. Tie Rus
sian vessels then turned back toward
the harbor and ceased firing. The Jap
anese followed almost to the entrance
of the harbOr, firing on the Nariag,
which had a heavy list to port and was
evidently in sinking condition. The
Korietz was practically untouched.
The Variag lost thirty men and seven
officers killed. and forty-twO wound
ed. Midshipman Nir0n was killed on
the bridge. The firing was not very
accurate, and the NariaG was hit in
only six places. but one shot struck
her Oh the water-line amidships and
wrecked one Of her engines. The
KorietZ was abandoned at , 3:3O y. m.
her crew going on board the Pascal,
and at 3:37 p. III. she blew up with a
terrific explosion.

FIGHT ALREADY ON
Ohio Republicans ManeuVering
for Hanna's Place in
Senate.
A BITTER CONTEST IS CERTAIN
Herrick, Dick and Burton Men
tiOned-Secretary Taft is a
Possibility.

Washington. d. G.. Feb. 16.-There
was meeting of the Ohio delegation
at the hotel last night for the pur-
pose of making funeral arrangements
and taking the usual steps to perpetu-
ate the memory of Senator Hanna.
When this business had been concluded
there was an inevitable exchange of
views regarding the political situa-
tiCn, and practically every one in
Washington is taking the same thing
into consideration. because Senator
Hanna was so great Il figure in the
politics of the country that his tax
ing away necessarily had to be con-
sidered at once. and without any lack
of respect to his memory.
There was practical unanimity of
belief among the members of the
Ohio delegation that it would not be
an easy matter to select Senator Han
mas successor. On the contrary, it
seems to be generally understood that
a serious fight Will he provoked. which
may have an effect not only in the
state. but possibly upon the political
fortunes of the president well.
Has No Political Heir.
Senator Hanna had no one near him
who by common consent could be con-
sidered as heir apparent to his po-
litical fortunes. He had grown so
fast. and so far was the distance be-
tween him and the nearest of his lieu
tenants. that it was at all times diff
ficult to pick out the second in com
maml. This has resulted in the en-
couragement of a good many differ
ent men. for Senator Hanna was
friendly to those younger than him
self. and had shown great conSidera
tiOn for many men throughout the
state. The legislature now is in ses-
sion. and this means that the fight
for the senatorship will be precipita-
ted at once. and in the opinion of the
best judges of Ohio politics it will be
bitter contest.
Three AVowed Candidates.
Gov Myron I. Herrick. of CIeve-
land; Representative Charles Dick, of
Akron, and Representative Theodore
+. Burton. of Cleveland. Will be avOw-
ed candidates. Between the first two,
at least. there will be VIGOROUS war
fare. so vigorous. in fact. as to lead
many to believe that a compromise
candidate will become an absolute
necessity. That compromise is said to
have been indicated in the person of
war. although it * more than doubt
full whether he wants or would accept
the place.
