]. F. HANLY
IS NOT 4
CANDIDATE
Closest Friend of ex-Govern-
or vouches for His Re
tirement-S Says He Has
Accomplished His Mission
and Is Satisfied.

Indianapolis. Ind. Oct. IA. Frank
HanIy will never again run for office.
This can be stated as a fact on the
authority of the man who is probably
closer to Hanly than any other man in
Indiana This man says that If the
republicans or any other party in the
state or worrying about Hanly's inten-
tions for the future they may rest cas-
lily, for he will never again be candi-
date for any position.
This statement was called forth from
the friend OF Hanly by an inquiry yes
terday as to the many rumors which
have been in circulation to the effect
that Hanly might run for governor, and
that he would probably be a candidate
for United States senator against SEN
ator Beveridge Such stories have been
going the rounds for months, but it is
believed that they have originated prln
cipally in the minds of some over-zeal-
Gus admirers of Hanly or in the minds
of some of the Industrious political
newspaper writers of the state. There
has never been a time when the stor-
les have been given any credence or
taken seriously by the politicians and
the leaders in the state who know what
is going on. but no amount Of denial
by any of them has been able to keep
down the reports They have bobbed
up regularly, connecting Hanly's name
With the various positions

ing lectures throughout the country.
lie is said to be making money hand
over fist, and everybody knows that
Hanly is a man who finds unusual
pleasure in prosperity. 1t is pointed
out. too, that he has left behind him a
record as governor that is not eq6aled
by many Indiana governors During
his administration he obtained new
laws that revolutlonized some things in
this state and if he had been possessed
Of a congenial nature he would I'M
doubtedly have accomplished much
more. He put the saloon business on
the toboggan in Indiana, and this was
his one great aim. 1t was his one great
fight, and he won. The politicians point
TO this fact to prove that Hanly will
not again be candidate for office They
say ne has accomplished what he
wanted and that he will rest satisfied
But if any party or any one else I'M
dertakes to upset the work he accom-
plished there can be no question nut
that he will again be in the political
arena. making fight of the kind that
Hanly can make, but not as a candi-
date.
The man who made the statement
yesterday that Hanly will not be a can
didate again for any Office is very close
to him. He knows Hanly's intentions
probably as well or better than any
other man in the state, and he makes
the statement as a fact. He SAYS he
knows il to be true.
This ought to set at rest the stories
about Hanly's intentions.

TREASURERS
OFFICE: GOES
4 BEGGING
Ticket Now Without
a Name for Third Place
Since w. H. O'Donnell
Has Withdrawn From the
Race.

The only man whom the Daily Pevo
stated last night would be a candidate
for city treasurer on the Independent
democratic ticket, w. H. O'Donnell. has
Withdrawn, and now at the eleventh
hour the boiling faction finds itself
without a candidate for the third high
est place on the ticket.
The name of W. H. O'Donnell was
mentioned without his consent last
night in the Pevo. as Mr.. O'Donnell
stated this morning that he had his
name Withdrawn from the ticket before
the paper went to press. This leaves
the Knots faction without an avowed
candidate for the place and no man
with position or influence seems to
want it at the present time.
The spectacle of the city treasurer
ships place on the ticket going begging
shows beyond a doubt that but few
people repose confidence in the indie
pendent movement.
VIII Use 1t as a Balm.
It is believed. however, at the last
moment that the place on the ticket
will be handed to one of the three men
whom Knots has promised the nom-
nation for city clerk, Harry Moose,
Arden Dearbeyne or R. 1. Winkler, in
order to soothe them when they real
lie that they have been made the sub
jects of Knots trickery.
Interesting developments are expect
ed tonight when the candidates for Of
fee. who have been pledged support
by Tam Knots on the consideration
that they work for him. learn that they
have all been double crossed" One
candidate. r. l. Winkler, is quoted as
saying that he was prepared to defend
his rights at the convention with q
brace of forty tours if he found this
action necessary.

of the first Scottish clan in the state

the clan in honor of William Mcneil of
the Kirk hotel who is one of the most
popular men in Gary today and who
has been instrumental in the organiza-

in Gary a few days ago when at the
republican primaries he received the
nomination for councilman-a t-large by
large majority over all other candi-
dates.
The meeting last night was held for
the purpose of taking preliminary
steps for the organization of the Scot
fish clan, the story of which appeared
in THE TIMES some days ago. William
Mcneil was elected temporary chairman
and Thomas Blyth served as secretary.
Another meeting will be held next

be taken to perfect the organization.
The application for charter has al
ready been made and is expected to ar
rive in Gary by the time set for the
