KURTZ'S HOPELESS FIGHT Trying to Down the National Chairman for Personal Spite The Foraker Element of the KJffht.

Bpecial to The Inquirer. THE INQUIRER BUREAU. 1410-12 Street X. WASHINGTON, Dec. 19.

Senator Hanna will spend the' holiday recess at his home in Cleveland. will remain in Ohio until the General Assembly takes some decisive action on the questiftn of his successor to the United States Sen-iate from that State. The country has been treated to an unusual amount of gossip on the Sena-! torial situation even since the polls closed in November. Mr. Hanna is his party's nominee for Senator.

The nomi-! nation was regularly made by the Toledo convention and was ratified by nearly every county convention where members of the Assembly and State Seriate were nominated. Governor Bushnell was nominated for re-election by the Toledo convention. His nomination was no more binding than is that of Mr. Hanna. He had no more claim to Republican support for Governor than Mr.

Hanna now has for Senator. OPPOSING ELEMENTS. It appears that there are two or three disgruntled Republicans, at the head of whom is Charles L. Ivurtz. This gentleman seems to have a very serious grievance against Senator Hanna for turning him down and appointing a warm personal friend- of his (Hanna's) as chairman of the State Committee.

Mr. Kurtz w-as a Foraker man and had been instrumental in aiding his election to the United States Senate. There is understood to be some disaffection and factional contention among some of th members of the Legislature in two localities, Cleveland and Cincinnati, aid there seems to be a little uncertainty as to the extent to which these factions will go. Mr. Kurtz has been for some weeks and Is still busying himself in organizing some scheme to defeat the election of Air.

Hanna. It appears that is willing and anxious to enter into some deal or combination with the I Democrats in the Ohio Legislature to bring about the defeat of Mr. Hanna and the election of any other Republican that the Democrats are willing to vote for. Thus far Mr. Kurtz has utterly failed in his attempt to make a combination with the Democrats.

KURTZ'S VISIT. 'He was here a few days ago and had a long conference with John McLean. WBp is now the Democratic leader and manager in Ohio. Mr. Kurtz's mission here, it is understood, was not successful.

It appears that there are a number of Democratic members of the Legislature who are unwilling to enter into any scheme' or combination to vote for a Republican simply to defeat Mr. Hanna. Marly of the leading Democrats in Ohio in the Legislature and outside are of the opinion that from a party standpoint It would be infinitely better to Mr. Hanna to be elected. If this view of th situation is maintained, it will be very difficult to make any combination of the kind, proposed, to bring about the defeat ilr.

Hanna. The attitude of Senator Eoraker in the Senatorial contest is regarded by frlen'-ds here as very unfortunate. He occupies, it appears, a neutral position, and seems disposed to allow the Ohio Republicans to fight out the Senatorship as best they may. Mr. Kurtz, who is the head and front of the opposition to Mr.

Hanna, is a close personal and political friend to Senator Foraker. If Mr. Hanna should be defeated, it would be charged against the senior Senator from Ohio, which might result disastrously for him hereafter. EFFECT OF DEFEAT. Senator Hanna's defeat, it can easily be -seen, would have consequences even in Ohio of far greater than personal bearing.

He is his party's nominee. President McKinley's personal friend, and choice for the place, and in that sense the administration candidate. Such a thrust at the administration from the President's own State would invite to disorder and disorganization wherever factions now exist. The belief is, notwithstanding all the talk in Ohio and elsewhere, that Mr. Hanna will ba re-elected.

He will get the caucus nomination, and accordingly will get every Republican vote. A CONFIRMATION. In confirmation of this view a statement from Judge Louis W. King, of Youngstown, President McKinley's old Congressional district, who arrived'here a day or two ago, has an important bearing. Judge King, next to Kurtz, has for years been nearer to Foraker than any.

other. Ohio Republican. While personally opposed to Hanna, his hatred for Kurtz is far stronger, and he hopes to see Hanna win the Senatorship as a slap to Foraker's old manager. For twelve years, he says, he has fought the battles of the Foraker element in his part of the State, when strong fighting was necessary. During that time, he says, he fought Mark Hanna tooth and nail constantly in State conventions.

But now he believes that Hanna should succeed himself." He is not his choice by any means. There are many good Republicans who would better please him. But that has nothing to do with the case. Hanna was indorsed by the State convention, and he was the Issue in the last campaign. As a Republican, he has nothing to do but abide by the will of the majority.

CHINESE RAILROAD Consul GoodnoiT'a Report on the Preaent Situation. WASHINGTON. Dec. 19. The first re-ort to the State Department from United States Consul Goodnow, at Shanghai, contains a to American railroad men not to go to China for employment.

He says: "The American only invites' starvation who comes here without a contract of- employment with some reputable firm made before he leaves America." The Consul-General says he has had many Inquiries from American railroad men, as to chances for employment. in-China, so he describes the small Chinese railroad system to show the hopelessness of looking In that direction for work. There are only two railroads in operation, with a total mileage of 283 miles. They employ only twenty-seven foreigners, of whom four are engineers. In addition, there are the managers and division superintendent.

The operatives are practically all Chinese, and a foreigner cannot compete with them. The natives are the telegraph at per month. Engineers get JO to $30, and train hands and trackmen to $10 per month. All of this is in Mexican silver, worth 44 cents gold cm the dollar. The roads are paying 15 per dividends.

Eddy, of Eayonne, well known as an expert in constructing and flying kites and in aerial photography, has just completed a series experiments covering a period of several years which he thinks prove that his kites may be made of utmost value to meteorologists and r. igators. He believes that he has established the fact that the pull of his kites on their strings, as indicated by a delicate string anemometers of aluminum now used, and he thinks, too. that he has demonstrated by this means that the wind velocity over a wide region is practically the same at a not very great height above the ground, where the effect of the- irregularities of the earth's surface upon the atmospheric movements are annulled. Mr, Eddy has compiled tables of wind velocities as recorded by his kites at which he has compared with the official hourly records taken by the fnited States Weather Bureau's anemo- metpr on thp tower of the Manhai-tan Life Insurance Building in this city, which show a startling similarity.
