don cable, dated Feb. 16, says Port Ar

fall by herself.
A dispatch to the Dally Mall from St.
Petersburg says that military circles rec
ognize that relief from the responsibility
of maintaining the long line of railway
in Manchuria will simplify Admiral Alex
lefTs task.
Port Arthur can be safely left to take
care of Itself, while with Harbin, securely
garrisoned preparations may continue
for gatherinc an overwhelming force for
a southward advance when the weather is
favorable.
The World's comment on this Is: The
tone of the above cablegram lndldates a
plan of campaign on land. At the be
ginning they boasted of Port 'Arthur as
Impregnable. The Russians have deter
mined to abandon tho defense of the
railway between Port Arthur and Harbin.

CHICAGO, Feb. 16. The Armour Inter
est Is now even on -wheat. It 'will make
no difference to It -what the market does.
It has become merely a matter of -what
premium can be gotten out of the May
and cash -wheat. This Interest has as
much old for July and September as
It has bought for May, and the basis of
Its purchases and sales Is such that there
Is a great profit assured. The May hold
ing cost In the 70s, the July Is sold' from
S3 up to 90 cents. If the July -wheat ad
vances, the Armour theory Is that the
old -wheat -will move up even further.
The men In the deal are confident tho old
wheat premiums, will Increase, and that
the May -will at least hold and possibly
advance, even If the July and September
decline.
The Armour operation as a speculation
Is at-an,ind. It. Is .now merelr ,iAquen
tlon of how much the present profit In
the SDrlne Is to be Increased by the
scarcity of old wheat.
For a -week there has been continued
selling of July and September -wheat by
the Armour house, and the market has
taken this without flinching because of
the war excitement and because of the
July sympathy with the spot strength.
Meanwhile there has been little doing
In the May, nothing more Important than
a scalping In and out market, appreciably
affecting the size of Important holdings.
For ten days the Armour operators have
been but In one direction, the hedging of
the long May for July at prices about 10
cents higher than the May holding aver
aged. The bull expectation Is that tho
cash position will continue to enhance the
spot and May prices, and that the July

by the foreign situation and by the homo
crop situation. Tho bull theory Is that
nothing can now happen which will lessen

ington, Feb. 16. Senator Mitchell will prob
ably succeed Senator Hanna as chairman
of the committee on interoccanlc canals.
Next to Senator Hanna was Senator Piatt,

of the canal committee will Involve a great

Senator Mitchell is the next ranking mem
ber, and it would be against precedent If
he should not be selected for this Impor
tant place. This will give the Senator
not only a more prominent place In the
Senate bit It will also give him a better
committee-room than be has at the pres

Senator Mitchell says he has heard noth
ing about his chances of succeeding to
the chairmanship of tho canal committee,
although he has been told that Senator
Piatt does not care for the place.

mortal of Senator Marcus A. Hanna
lies in the room at the Atlington
Hotel, where, after the long, brave
struggle, he yielded to death. Thus
far only a few of the most intimate
friends of the Hanna family have been,
permitted to enter the death chamber
to view the body. In appearance the
features of the dead statesman are very
lifelike. They Indicate little emaciation
and on account of the oxygen used
during the last days of tho Senator's
sickness there is an absence of tho
ashen color peculiar to the dead.
An atmosphere of profound sorrow
pervaded the hotel today. Men con
versed in subdued tones and the nama
of the dlstlngulsed dead was on every
lip.
At a council of tho members of the
Hanna family and some intimato
friends of the Senator held today ar
rangements were made for the funeral.

Hanna, and his brother. HI M. Hanna.
there were present Governor Herrick
and General Charles Dick, of Ohio, andv
Elmer Dover, the Senator's secretary.

visited President Roosevelt. He was
accompanied by Postmaster - General
Payne. After a conference with thn
feresldent and the members of the
Cabinet Mr. Hanna announced that the
President would not attend the funeral
services In Cleveland, much as he
would like to pay that last tribute to
his dear friend, but he would attend
the state funeral to bo neld tomorrow
In the Senate chamber. It was agreed
by all that it would bo inadvisable for
the President to go to Cleveland. Sec
retaries Taft, Cortelyou and Wilson,
however, will go to Cleveland to at
tend the services there. Postmaster
General Payne desires also to go, but
his physicians have advised him not to
make the trip. That advice ho has
concluded to follow.
The remains of Senator Hanna will be
convoyed from the hotel to the Capitol at
11 o'clock tomorrow morning. The cor
tege will be simple and there will be no
demonstration or display. Preceding the
hearee and the carriages containing tho

tailed from the Capitol police force.
