SENATOR HANNA
HURRIES HOME
To Take Part In the Coming Ohio
Campaign.
London, Sept. 4. Rejuvenated by a
course of treatment at German hatha
and a summer's visit to Europe, United
States Senator Ilannn haB returned to
London for a few dayB rest previous to
Bailing for tho United States ou bonrd
the American line eteamer St. Louis
Suturday next. Senator Hnnna is hur
rying to Ohio to participate in the
opening of the Republican campaign in
Akron.
From a conversation with Senator
Hanna, tho correspondent here of the
Associated FreBB gathered that the zett
with which tiie senator ia looking for
ward to the conflict in Ohio is due to
tho fact that he recognizes that the
coming campaign will not furnish the
reply to the question of tho country's
indorsement of the national administra
tion, but that back of the candidacy of
John R. McLean for the governorship of
Oiiio there is an aspiration for the
second place on the Democratic presi
dential ticket with Mr. Bryan, nnd,
failing of election, a future contest for
tho United States senatorship from Ohio.
In eucli u competition, Mr. Hanna is
anxious to participate, became it means
the opening of the national campaign of
1900.

This Ycar's Corn Crop Breaks Record.
Chicago, Sept. 5. The Tribune says:
Only an accident can prevent the break
ing of nil previous records by the corn
crop production of the United States
this year. A canvass of the eight states
which raise the bulk of the corn of this
country warrants an estimate above that
of 1800, which heretofore has been the
record and there la much in the advices
received to justify a prediction that the
crop i will approximate 2,500,000,000
bushels. The state producing the largest
amount is Kansas, with 340,000,000
bushels, Nebraska producing 3.10000,000
bushels.
