STATUMKNT FROM IIANNA FORCES.
Late tonight Senator Hanna and h'ci a.flo- .
clatea at their headquarters gave out the fol
lowing statement regarding the result of the
cauciiini tonight :
The result of the caucuses tonight nnsures
the stir/porter * of Senator Hanna that ihe
Intrigue of dlsloyul republicans ultli the
Allen O. Myers-John It. . .McLean democracy
for the election of n free silver man to the
senate will not ba successful. Mr. Kurlz
and his associates had claimed tint tnero -
'publicans cculd not muster more than
thlrty-llvo vote * In tonight's house uaiicui ;
Instead of thai fifty-two were pit-Kent and
iit leant two others would h.ive attended but
for Illness. , ,
They boasted con.Manf.y I hat they would
keep at ! ? > * twenty-seven republicans oui
of the hou c-jjius ; lnn < a.l of that but
one-third of thnt number rein lined nwny.
In the senate c.iucufl every republican was ,
present with the except ! m of lUtrke of J
Cleveland. Of the ton absentee * from the
houco caucus two Inoro detained by Illnc8 < t
one of them sending word that ho would
support the nominees of the party , while of
the other eight It Is known that some will
vote for Senator Hnnnn. Tonight's results
encourage the. friends of Senator Hanna
nnd the tlsht wilt RO on to the finish. They
feel that the sentiment of the republicans
of the state and country \ thoroughly
iiroifsod ngalnst this plot to overthrow the
ls\lll of the people nnd obtain control of con-
sre's by the election of u free silver senator
with republican votes and It Is confidently
bellved that public sentiment will be so
felt by the men who hold the power to de
termine this question thill they will not
re.filso to vote with the party which elected
them.
At the republican senate caucus there
were two absentero Senator llnrkeof Cleve
land iiml Senator Volght of Cincinnati , the
Istter ibelng the only fuslonlst In 'that body.
Volght ha.i ibeon counted among -tOie support
ers of Senator Hannn. The republicans noni-
liuitc-d J. Park Alexander for president pie
( cm of the senate , A. C. Calno for chief
clerk and R. F. Haywurd for sergc.uit-at-
arms , Gallic and Hayward arc rcnomlnalo.l
for tholr okl places. Although on the ll.inna
'tlcltot Haywnrd Is from Springfield , Is a
neighbor of Governor Ilushncll ami has been
his clcso friend.
The democratic ponato eaticua nominated
Senator Ilurke of Cleveland , an nntl-IIatina
republican , for president pro tern ; Judge
Ditty of Hlllsloro. democrat and friend of
John H. McLean , for chlct clerk , nn , ! dem >
Pr.lt.c fnr nil tlin nthnt. tn ru.
Lieutenant Governor Jonrs Is hero , and
will preside In the senate. It Is conceded
that the democrats will organize that body ,
which stands eighteen democrats , seventeen
republicans and cue fiislonlst. The attitude
of Senator llurkc will not likely leave the
tie vote to be cast by Lieutenant Governor
Jones.
While Grimth IMS been counted cm by both
sides , and was reported as nick at the re
publican caucus , It Is believed that tlito
takes him out of the Ilanna list and entcw
him wltti the ornosltlon.
After the antl-llanna republicans and the
democrats caucused separately , they met
jointly before midnight and nominated Mayor
McKlsson of Cleveland for the short term
and Governor Ilushnell for the long term for
senator , and entered Into a fusion agreement
to organize both houses. Senator Uurko wan
notified to remain away till the senate was
organized.
HUSII.N'KLL A CANDIDATE.
Governor Biishnoll , In an Interview to
night , made 'the ' first announcement of his
candidacy for the scnatorshlp. Ho said :
"I am a candidate only in the receptive
sense. I want the members of the general
assembly ( „ Kettle It for themselves. If I

the Diet today according to custom. He said
that thirty years' experience had taught
Hungary that it must not dissolve the pres
ent economic alliance with Austria. Though ,
of course , there might be bounds to Hun
gary's desire for Its maintenance , recent
events In the Diet , ho claimed , were entirely
unjustified , shook parliamentarism to Its
foundation , and violated Its nrlnclnlcs.
Continuing , the premier remarked that no
words were strong enough In expression or
eiiindeiitly energetic to condemn thrao pro

help of the king the liberal party would bo
able to find a way out of the dllllcultlcs.

NEW YORK. Jan. 1. Jimmy Michael of
Wales again demonstrated his superiority as
middle-distance wheelman tonight befwo
n crowd of tncr 12,000 people In Mia twenty-
five mile match mco with Kduardo Tayloro
of France on the hoard ttxrok at Madison
Square gatdcu.
' 'Hilly" Young , who had Taylore under Ida
careful Supervision In training tor tills race ,
s-ild tonlRhl after the wee was over that his
nun should have utnrtud with a higher gear
than Ot. Hut the work of his man alter ho
exchanged his broken machine for one geared
to 104 was not up to his trainer's cxpccta-
tlcm ami there Is no reasonable doubt from
his work that Michael can give a Inlle In
twenty-five to the Frenchman and beat him
easily at that.
Men. women , boys nnd girls thronged
every available Inch of Madison Square gar
den tonight for the regular Indoor bicyclu
races , which were held tindur the uurplcrs
of the American Cycle Racing association.
The hoard track was arranged sa that Kin
rldcrii had to cover ten laps to complete a
mile , nnd the measurement was vouched for
by throe city surveyors. At ! l o'clock It wi.i
estimated that 10,000 people were In the big
building , and then there were folly half as
many nwro clamoring for admission at the
entrances.
The big event of the evening was tlin
'Mlehaol-Tiiyloro ' race. Tayloro won the polo
on the toss. The FreiKhmnn's Rear was
ninety-four and .Michael's 100. The riders
got on the scratch line at 10:20 : o'clock. Thy-
lore rushed oft and caught the pacers on the
first turn , with Michael two lengths behind.
Tayloro rode like a whirlwind , ami at tha
end of tlio first mile led .Michael by a length.
In the flr-st lap of the second mlle Michael
forged ahead , and at the end of the third
mile ho was one lap to the good. In tlio
fourth mile i.Mlt'hael gained a lap , and In the
fifth ho had the same distance to his ercdlt.
Tayloro was outclassed In the eighth mile ,
and ( Michael passu.ii him for the third tlmo.
Time at the end of the eighth * mlle for
Mlrlinol. ir.-nT
SI'ECTATOUS OET EXCITKD.
Thy lore lost hi * pacemakers In the tenth
mile , and at the beginning of the eleventh
Michael was close up to him and paused
him , then being four laps to the gooJ. The
spectators wore by this time worked"up to
the highest pitch of excitement. The
Frenchman was evidently beaten , but ho
stuck to liLs work and was seemingly not
dlshoartncd when Michael pasacd him on
the thirteenth mile for the fifth time.
Michael ran up another lap to his account
In the fourteenth mllo. In the seventeenth
mlle Tnylore roilo around after Michael's
pacemakers for three laps , but the effort
weakened him considerably and he had to letup
up and 'Michael ' ran ahead another lap at the
end of the nineteenth mile.
Taylore's saddle broke In the twentieth
mile , , and in exchanging wheels ho lost two
lap.s , thus giving 'Michael ' a clear lead of a
mllo. The wheel which was substituted for
Taylore's damaged ono was geared to 101 ,
but the French rider was unable to cope with
the superlative efforts of the "little wonder , "
and the midget gained another lap at the
close of the twenty-third , mile. From this
to the end of the race Michael went oo
swiftly that It took all the starch out of
his rival , and Michael finally won by thirteen
laps. Time by miles :
