Congressman McAdoo, OF New Jersey, was at the
democratic headquarters to-day. he is very enthu-
sastic In the declaration OF his confidence In the
success of the democratic ticket, and denies the
statement Of the New York Tribune that be Is very
indifferent as TO the success Of Cleveland and
would not take the stump for him
"The statements absurd he said. "They are
making The widest sort Of assertions The
Idea OF saying that Randall was dlsaf-
ected. Then Kenna, ana now I'm announced
as against Cleveland, It's very absurd"
"Then it's not true that you have refused 20 take
the stump for Cleveland?" asked the STAR man.
NO. have made six Cleveland speeches already,
ana am going right on making as many as can,
not only In my own state, but elsewhere. have

places aces where have been or may be invited"

"How about Butlere"
There is no organized Butler move In the state
man here and there declares himself for the anti
monopoly candidate, but there Is no way OF eSti-
mating how many there are in the state. But the
democrats he added, "are In perfect accord. They
are united and very enthusiastic. They are having
Danner-ralsngs all through the state. Just raise
a Cleveland banner, and without any advertise
ment, and a crowd OF two or three thousand people
Will assemble and stand in the street for hours lis
tening to speeches. This in the small places. too,

THE STAR man.
at is a positive and organized force. They have
come out and withstood the shock OF republican
vituperation without losing any OF their strength,
and they are source OF great uneaSineSS to the re-
putcanS. Some OF the best republicans In the
state are In their rankS-thOse who have always
heretofore done good work for and contributed to
the republican cause freely. They are working
determinedly to defeat Blaine, and no explanation
OF his course that can be made Affects them In the
least"
"How do you look upon the situation In New
York;"
~ am right there in Jersey City, virtually part
or New York, and can view the situation pretty
clearly. tell you Cleveland is the strongest can

New YORK. whose strength must be acknowledged
