What other state has take every risk Of guarantee: | Drofited so much by the policy which Mr. McKinley so conspicuously represents? His Real Ambition. The McKinley men assert that this effort will fail, and that Mr. Quay will lose heay- ily by it. His real ambition, it is believed, is to secure his old place as chairman of the republican national committee and con- duet the coming campaign. It is conceded that he possesses great aptitude for the place. He filled it with great success in 1888, and the circumstances attending his retirement from it were such that he has ever since been anxious to return to it. He is a fine general, both to plan and to fight a battle, and a good deal of prestige attaches to his name as an_ organizer. But, as is pointed out, if Mr. McKinley is to be the candidate, Mr. Quay, after the record he has now made, cannot be selected to conduct the campaign. The man for that work must be acceptable in every way to the candidate, must be in his fullest confidence, and, in fact, his good right arm. How, !t is asked, could Mr. Mckin- ley call to his side at such a time a man to order that East npletcd on time. 13th st., SICK PEOPLE AND INVALII NEED AN INVI Something to strengthen their wasted te build and muscle. — Somet a and aid digestion.

The prisoner had very little to say to the officers about the policy business, and as soon as he reached the police station he gsked for a lawyer. This morning he ap- peared in court to exswer the charge, and when arraigned he demanded a jury trial. When the question of fixing the bond game up the prosecuting attorney, Mr. Mul- Jowny called the court's attention to the fact that so much money had been found on him, as well as the policy books. He Tealized that this case was of more im- rtance than any case that -has been ught to the court’s attention for many months, and asked that his bond be fixed at $60. The court suggested that $300 was the usual amount, but Mr. Mullowny in- sisted on the larger amount and this was the sum finally settled upon by the court. It was stated in court that Lawyer J. J. Johnson was his counsel, and he will ap- pear in the care when It fs tried. Lawyer J. Harry Smith and John A.

Harris; third vice president, F. C. Waite. It was decided to defer the election of vice presi- dents on special industries until the next meeting. After the election Mr. James T. DuBois delivered an address on “The Inventive and Creative Age,” in which he made a com- parison of the patent laws and inventions of today with those of a century ago, and declared that the present should be termed the “machine age.” Dr. Gatling, the in- ventor, the guest of the society, also spoke on the century of inventions, and had some interesting things to say about his own de- vicex liam Walsh, Syracuse, N. ¥.; Lincoln, Neb..

Nalls, harmonica solo by Mr. Herbert Bradbury, recitation by Miss Francis and vocal solo by Miss Tyler.

From the Chicago Times-Herald. CLEVELAND, Ohio, March 15.—M. A. Hanna is a political comet. He appears every four years. His presence in the na- tional sky sets the country to talking for a summer; he then slips under the horizon. He is now in the ascendancy. He is dis- cussed over the breadth and wicth of land. He shares public attention with the lead- ers who make a business of being public. The people have learned to know him—to recognize his influence—and they wonder at the manner of man he is that in the distribution of the rewards of victory he neither gets nor seeks any portion. This unique trait is sufficient to make him con- spicuous. There are many other reasons why he is one of the remarkable men of the day. Mr. Hanna is primarily a business man. He owns a large part of Cleveland. He denies that he is in politics—a statement which needs an explanation. He refuses to be classed with the men who are in poll- tics, Necause the phrase suggests the brood scrambling for office. His interest in the’ affairs of state is no more than is the right and duty of all good citizens. He has never held cffice—save an unsalaried, but trying compliment from the hands of President Cleveland. He never wants another, and at the end of this campaign he will again retire frem the trials and vexations of con- ferences, turn aside from the contests with party bosses, temporarily abandon thé struggle with the big combinations, and: be- come a private citizen in his palace on the Erie lake shore.

Any: at present. They have very often heen on cpposite sides of politicai situations. They were both delegates to the national con- vention of 184. The major was last, first ard all the time a Blaine boomer at that meeting. Mr. Hanna was the champion of Jchn Sherman. They had the same room at the hotel, with beds in diagonal corners, enator Edmund: da chance of winning ndidate. His cause was hands of George William Curtis and Theodore Roosevelt. There was a great knocking at the door of the Hanna-Mckin-~ ley*room late In the first night of the con- vention. Mr. McKinley answered the call and admited the boomers of the Vermont man. They hurriedly told their plan for a combination by which the nomination should go to Edmunds or Sherman, accord_ ing to the number of ballots each should receive during the first vote. The major Kstened to thé scheme from his place un- j der the covers, but made no comment on the elaborate plan. He heard them nearly to the end, and then said: “Gentlemen, I think you must have made a mistake. The Sherman man is over there in the other led.”” He then rolled over and went to sleep, as the visitors shook up Hanna to retell their story. It increased Mr. Hanna’s faith in Mr. McKinley that he never made use of his unwilling confidences to the benefit of his man Blaine. There is no doubt that Mr. Hanna is a business man. He has millions. He dug some of them out of the iron and copper hills of northern Michigan. Others came from the means he provided for others to @o the same thing. He was the pioneer in the Lake Superior ship trade, and it now takes two fleets of iron boats to handle the ores from his holdings. A company to make boats for sale was his project, and its “development made Cleveiand the first naval yard along the inland seas. A lot of kindred enterprises followed—the manasing genius of which was Mr. Hanna. There was munictpal necessity for a new street car line—he %uilded it. His financial tact was demanded in banking cirsles—aud his name makes the Union National a leader in the country. He once owned a news: paper. His money built the Euclid Avenue Opera House. His energy founded the bie- gest furnaces. He operates in th® coal fields of the Tuscarawas Valiey—leals in the products of the Pittsourg district. It is thus apparent that there is but little great in Ohio's commerce that does not directiy or indirectly ‘eel the hand and inflvense 9° Hanna. The financial attitude of any ad- ministration affects him widely and the wages of the thousands who labor under his management. He believes the business men of the country are needed at this time in public affairs and upon this basis he has become a politician. Divorces Granted. Judge Hagner today granted Ida R. Wil- cox a divorce from Andrew D. Wilcox, and awarded Mrs. Wilcox the custody of the child, A divorce -was also grented by Judge Hagner today to Jane Churchwill from George Churchwill, to whom she was mar- ried here January 18, 1865. —_-__ Why Going South? To the Editor of The Evening Star: Tuesday night at about 10 o'clock, while standing in front of my house, I heard a peculiar piping sound, which seemingly came from the sky. Looking up, I distinct- ly saw a faint, irregular line in the form of an inverted letter “‘v’’ moving southward. It was evident that they were birds of some kind—wild geese, most likely. Do geese mi- grate southward at this time of year, or does it forebode a late spring? Will orni- thologists, meteorologists, sportsmen or others interested In such phenomena kindly explain? HENRY N.
