It Caereaaa Deellaee, Hanna Will He Sac Mtsry of the Treasury Congressmaa em telle Slated for the Nary FortfeUe) A Friend of llea na Bxplalas tha SUu Uea Othar Politic. Cucvxiuu, Ohio, Nov. 25. A close friend of Chairman Banna to-day ex plained under what circumstances Mr. Ilanna-would accept a place in the cabinet "Mr. Hanna," he said, "will either go into the cabinet or he will be tie next Republican United States tenator-from Ohio. . "Mr. Hanna'a course may be decided by Senator John Sherman. Both the , chairman and Major McKinley under ' stand that, and they are waiting to lean what position Mr. Sherman will take. Mr. McKinley wants Mr. Hnna to accept the treasury portfolio, but Mr. Hanna has other aspirations. He believes it would be a greater honor to be senator from Ohio. But Senator Sherman stands in the way of that. "Major McKinley will offer Senator Sherman the position of secretary of . state, and If he declines to go into the cabinet then Mr. Hanna will accept the position of secretary of the treas ury. Should Mr. Sherman decide, t however, to become one of President McKinley 's advisers, thus vacating his teat in the senate, Mr. Hanna will be come his successor. Mr. McKinley will not decide on his course until he learns exactly what position Senator Sher man will take." This same friend of Mr. Hanna said that it had practically been decided that Congressman Boutelle, of Maine, would be the secretary of the navy. Despite the fact that both General Miles and Colonel Fred Grant held a conference with McKinley, neither of them, says this gentleman, will get the portfolio of war NOTED TENOR IS DEAD.

A dispatch to the World from Havana, under date of November 20, says: The Cmpetitor prisoners have been tried by court martial in the fortress La Cabana, in spite of Consul General Lee's official protest, filed just before he left Ha vana. The exceptions taken by the prison ers were overruled by the naval courts. General Lee's note was pigeonholed and, in defiance of Secretary OIney's intimation of disapproval, the Compe titor's crew and Owen Melton, the American newspaper correspondent, have again been tried by a drumhead court, sitting within the walls of a Spanish fortress, where, according to Captain General Weyler's orders, the representative of the United States consulate may not enter. The prisoners were allowed neither interpreter nor counsel. Those partly acquainted with Spanish were com pelled to interpret for the others. So quietly was the affair conducted that Acting Consul General Springer does not yet know, it is said, that the case was virtually closed November 14, on which day Melton, Maaa, Dr. Vedia and the witness, George Ferran, were forced by Naval Judge Fernandez to sign statements admitting their com plicity in the filibustering expedition which the Competitor is alleged to have brought, under Monzen and Laborde, to the Pinar del Eio coast. This writ ten evidence is now under considera tion by the court . Judge Haul said to-day that a decis ion may be rendered at any moment It is expected that all the members of the party whose American citizen- snip has not been clearly shown wul be shot The bona fide Americans probably will be sentenced to from three to ten years' imprisonment in some Spanish penal station off tht coast of Africa.
