THE HOADLY INTERVIEW.
"What 1 Said He Said He SaId," Says MIR.
Woodland, Concerning Judge Hoad-
" ly's Denial.

4 few weeks agO,as readers of the Journal will
remember. there was little controversy be-
tween Governor Foster, of Ohio, and Judge
Hoadly, the Democratic candidate for Governor
OF that State, growing ont Of statements made
by Governor Foster to the effect that Hoadly had
admitted that he mad almost openly bought his
nomination, the two statesmen indnlging in per
sonalities and having a warm time generally
Finally Governor Foster was called upon by
Hoadly to produce his authority for the charge
and, much to the surprise of the aspirant for
gubernatOrial honors, the Governor gave the
name Of his informant, who was
none other than our own Jayhawker,
]. II. Woedard, of the Cincinnati Enquirer.
Jayhawkers letters, corroborating Governor
Fosters statements, are of so recent date to
be fresh in the public mind, and have been COM
mented upon by the press of the entire country,
Judge Hoady being on all sides mercllessIy
criticised. Until within very few days Hoadly
has not ventured to contradict the statements
OF Governor Foster since that gentemans au-
thority published, but being finally cor
nered by correspondent of the New York Her.
aid, he denies Jayhawker's story. In this inter
view, which appeared In the Herald of wednes-
day last occurs the following:
"Correspondeut-Did you say anything to
Woodard at that time or TO anyone In his pres
ence or in his hearing about your nomination
costing yOu $50 900 or any other sum2
Judge Hoadly-Not a word, not one single
word; nothing of the Kind. Nothing was said on
any other subject than of his purpose to spend
three weeks in Ohio seeking out Democratic dis
satisfaction, which looked on AS hostile TO me
and the Democratic party. THIS Is the only time
have seen 'Jahawker TO speak with him for
months, and this conversation lasted only a few
moments"
A representative of the journal met Mr.. Wood
ard yesterday, and called his attention to Judge
Hoadys tardy denial. In answer to the repor-
toral inquiries Mr.. Woodland said
"Judge Hnadly said TO me that Mr.. Mclean had
made his nomination cost him a great deal more
money than IL should have done. He used the
word money, ana used it in exactly the fore
going connection. Judge HOadly made similar
statements to other persons, all of whom are
Democrats, and If he wants their names he can
get them but l suppose he remembers
Il part of them. In his New York Her
aid interview, the Judge indOrses my
statements in these words 'Besides jaw
hawker had failed to support Fosters
statements, and felt that there nothing to
after my letter TO Governor Foster, and after the
Herald had editOrially said that HOady should
deny or withdraw from the ticker, can see the
pressure under which he was com PEELED to say
what he has. The talk between the Judge and
myself was not private, any more than was his
talk with many other persons who repeated his
statements to Mr.. Mclean Judge HoHdy is
aware now that while did not re peat his state
ment to Mr.. Mclean, thar others did, and that
their statements of what he said cOrroborates
what have just told you he said TO me-"
