I 8 BITTER Toward tjie New Senator -f vsf Is the Organized Labor er (he Queen fj. No Man Could Have Been More Distasteful -A. Than Hanaa, Wha Far Yeara H. Been Hostile To the Aimi aad Objects Lobar. The Interest in ths candidacy Mark Hanna for United States Senator and f.he rupture between Senator J.

B. Foraker and Oeorge B. Cox la by no means conStied to cKlxens In the better walks of life, and the developments in the senatorial fight are be-in watched with the keenest Interest by thai trades unions and organised element throughout tiia state. Espectaily 1 this a fac In this city, and a curious phase of the fee 11ns or the trades unions in the matter Is the disinclination shown by many prominent in' their ranks men who tender ordinary circumstances are free and outspoken in their utterances on all questions of public Interest to talk for publication or express their views as voicing- the opinions of their fellows. Possibly the true reason for this reticence will be found below.

One thins, however, la evident la bhe brief-et conversation with them on the subject the bitter feeling- that pervades alt alike xgalnst Mark Hanna and his methods in the Presidential campaign. OROAN1ZEO LABOa AOAlaT RIM. Organised labor has looked upon him for years as ona of Hs moat bitter enemies, and the coercion tactics of many employers in the lata election, it is believed by them, i were the result of his dictation and advice, and this knowledge has only served to Intensify the feeling against him. The first public manifestation of this antipathy came in the action of the Central Labor Council of Cleveland some days ago tn denouncing lilm and protesting to Oovemor Bushnell against his appointment, and Tills was supplemented a few days later by the Trades and Labor Assembly passing similar resolutions. It la an open secret now that at the last meeting of Central Labor Council of this city reaolutloos of the most Utter denunciation of Mr.

Hanna were Introduced, and protesting' In the most earnest term to Uovernor Bush null against hi appointment. The Cincinnati Council, It may be added. Is the largest representative body of organised labor in the state, 42 local organisations and nearly all the national associations of tratiee unions being represented therein. Out while the council was almost' unanimous lh approval of the resolutions so far as Mark Hanna was concerned, the point was raised by a prominent local labor leader that as both Hanna and Buahnell had taken a stand at various times in the past agalnait organised labor, and both were known to be inimical to its Interests, the resolutions would be only supplying aumnunluou to onu enemy with whtoh to down another In any future contest between them, and under this argument tits resolutions were withdrawn. XILKINNI CATS, SATS HE.

Bpeekjnir -of the-matter to an Enquires reporter last night Mr; Thos. J. Donnelly, sx-President of the Council, said: "The whole wrangle ovr the senatorial sjuooession is. from our point of view, a ease of the "Kilkenny In which we are perfectly content to see them destroy each other. It Is a matter of complete Indifference to organised labor, for we have nothing' to expect from any of the contending parties." Asked as to his opinion of the senatorial succession Mr.

Hugh Cavanaugh said: "it is a tilting nnale to the methods by which the late eSection was carried, and a spectacle for gods and men to see the tog of a Senator falling on the shoulders or Mark Hanna as his reward for the boodle and coercion tactics' by which Bryan was defeated. "it was only a question of time, to my mind, how long the alliance between For-i keif and Cox would last. Foraker needed Cox to maintain his grip on the state organization, and Cox found the Senator and his stats machine necessary for the furtherance of his pet schemes before the lnTatisre. Certain corporations who have atood behind Oeorge Cox in this city for years having received all they want, or expect to get, through his assistance, are, no s-doutot, now ready to fall in with the 'kla Jgrove' aad 'reform- elements of the Re-pubUoan party and dump him at the earliest I possible opportunity. "It now, remains to be seen who will be lost in the new deal.

George Cox ia nobody's fool, and no doubt realized long ago the necessity of forming new and stronger alliances outside of Hamilton County, if he expected to maintain his hold on local af- fairs. There la no doubt but what he has dictated the terms In the new alliance, and In addition to the big waterworks Job will control the Federal patronage of Hamilton County. WHAT IS TO BB BXPECTED. "And. speaking of the waterworks, I ven- ture the prediction that it will never be An-teued aye, not much more than commenced, under a commission as at present constituted.

The decision as to the unconstitutionality of Section a in the bill did not ult a whole lot of people, and don't be surprised if we shall, as a result of- the Hanna-Oox-McKlnley deal, have future legislation, dispensing with or abrogating the powers of the commission, and practically throwing the construction of the works Into the hands of the Board of Administration on the core of economy, and a saving of the salaries of the Commissioners. The 'Kid Glove and 'Reform' Republicans may kick and howl, out. so far as they are concerned, Oeorge Cox will continue to wield the lash, and If they expect to accomplish anything In downing tme 'Big they can do so only by supporting the Democratla ticket this- spring. A well-known official of the Building Trades Council, who, for obvious reasons, does not wish to be quoted by name, aaid: one, unless directly connected with a trades union or labor organisation, can have any idea of the hatred and dislike with which they regard Mr. Hanna.

For years rre has been known aa a better enemy of their organizations, allowing no opportunity to escape bv which he could hamper or in- jure them. The feeling against him. how-' ever. Is not due solely to this cause, but Is an uncompromising hatred of the man for the methods pursued by him and his National Committee in earrylturthe last election. Railroad Presidents and beads of large manufacturing concerns may protest Uiat they exercised no coercion over their employes in the late election to Induce them to vote for McKlnley.

They Imply and knowingly no when they make such statements. OTHERS DID IT TO TIBL "The fact that they personally did not exercise the coercion spoken of does not do away with the fact that their supertax tendents, foremen and understrappers- did, and at their discretion, the whole plan of shameless imposition- and robbery of the free exercise of. the elective -franchise be-. ing directed, by -Mark Hanna. -Ask any railroad man to-day -why he Joined a railway club, and nine times oat of ten be will tell you that he had toy or else loss his position' and "Ask thousands of employes tn -the farto-' ries for Information as to the printed slips they got In- their pay envelopes on the eve of the Presidential election, in which they -were "We do not wish 'to influence your action or dictate for whom you shall vote, but simply tell you that If McKlnley Is defeated this shop tor-works) eloeee tn-definitely." These are the methods by which the election was carried, all assertions to the contrary notwithstanding.

OPPOSITION To the Proposed Appointment of Sam-nel Bickerstaff as Inspector of Engineers. Monday night Mayor Caldwell sent to the Board of Legislation the name of Samuel Bickerstaff as bis nominee for the position of Inspector of Stationary Engines, trice Frank Thomas, deceased. Upon the. technical ground that the Mayor had "nominated" Bickerstaff when he should have "appointed" him. the board sent the name back to the Chief Executive, and the presumption Is that it will come before the board In proper form next Monday night.

Whether or not the appointment will at that time receive the approval of that body Is a question yet be decided. "There are those who assert that Bickersta.fr appointment' will never be confirmed. The opposition to him haa Its origin In an old trouble, i Before the passage of the ordinance under which this city department Is now working there were two Inspectors of Stationary Engines, Bickerstaff and John Sherrod. A license was Issued to an engineer who had. been refused by Sherrod, and the latter demanded an Investigation, alleging that shady methods had been employed to secure this particular license.

Mayor Caldwell agreed to an investigation, but wanted It privately conducted. He attempted -to get nosaesHien of the but was -balked by Bherrod. A committee was appointed and the Investigation began, while It waa under way the new ordinance was passed, and both Sherrod and Bickerstaff were legislated out of office. A number-of -engineers have organized te prevent Bicker-staff's appointment, and they claim that they are reasonably certain of gaining their purpose. FEDERAL BUILDING.
