Cleveland and the New York Political
Situation.

WASHINGTON, September 20th.-n the
President is taking any part IN the contest
over the Democratic nomination tor Gov
ernor of New York, he has played his part
Ga cleveriy as to escape detection. Edward
Cooper. who is recognized as the most
formidable opponent to Governor Hill,
had two or three interviews with the Presl-
dent here during the summer, and Hubert.
O. Thompson, CoOper's strongest back er,
has been given virtual control of the fed
eral patronage Of the New York Custom
house Beyond this nothing is a,dvanced
10 show that the Administration has taken
any hand in the fight It is sell known
nat the President does not look uDon Gov
ernor Hill as q strong or Z safe candidate.
A gentleman enjoying the confidence Of the
President said TO a press correspondent yes
terdav: 1T looks now, on paper, as though
Governor Hill would decline 3he nomina-
ton. It is by no means certain, however,
that bis ambition will be realized. The
DELEGATIONS from New y ork and Kings
counties are not committed to Hill, and
their solid strength given to any one can
didate, backed by the scattering delegates
from the interior of the State who are
opposed 10 the Governor, may be enough to
nominate another man. It IS the field
against Hill, in sporting phrase, but who
will be taken from the field to make the
fight cannot be predicted. In every sense.
! believe Hills nomination would be a
mistake. He has been severely criticized for
several acts rs Governor that possibly
would not have injured Cleveland, had he
been in HIS place, but the associations
political, | nean-of the men are greatly
different frem those of the President in
New York, and what weEld be approved in
the one coald not be tolerated III the other.
Il Hill receives the nomination II Will re-
quire bard tight 10 elect him. II an ac-
ceptable man can he nominated from
among ether candidates l am confident We
will win This brief talk may be assumed
fairly to represent the Presidents views re-
speeding the nomination.

plans; that there is absolutely no ground at
this time upon which to form an opin

none until all the delegates have arrived
