 A Washington special to the New
 York World, dated Nov 18th says
 Mir. J. J. O'Donohue and Congress
 man-elect Bourke Cochran returned
 to New York on the Congressional
 train this afternoon. Mir. O'Donohue,
 at the special invitation of the Presi-
 dent, spent last evening at the White House. I asked Mir. O'Donohue to-day
 to give me an account of his visit.
 This visit had more than ordinary sig
 nifcance, because an hour before the
 invitation was sent to the Tamlnany leader an interview with him had ap-
 peared in one of the evening papers
 here, in which he had declaScS felf as against Mr. Cleveland aIS sls poli- cy. Mr. O'Donohue said that he had very delightful evenlng at the White House. His reception was sniore of social than a political one. He was presented to Mrs. Cleveland and the family. They sat down in content. ed family circle and had music and small talk.
 During the course of the evening the President and Mir. 0'Donohue had some conversation upon political afs fairs. Mir. O'Donohue talked very plainly to the President. He told him with great frahkness that he was op- posed to his policy; that he did not think it was Democratic, and that if he had been running for the Presidency this fall he would have lost New York by 30,OO0. MT. Cleveland did not agree with Mir. O'Donohue. He was confident that he could have carried the State, He pointed to the fact of Judge Peckbam's election and verified tie accuracy of the previous despatch es from this point on this subject.
 The President regards Judge Peck hams election as . personal triumph to himself and positive proof of his strength in the State. MT. O'Dono- hue told him that Peckhan's election had nothing to do with the Admins tration one way or the other It was secured entirely through the influence of Gov. Hill, who made deal in New York whereby the labor vote was se' cured. Mir. O'Donohue further said | that unless the President changed his policy towards tHaa1II Df tbeBem ocratic party he could not by any means be renominated.
 The tide in New York was now overwhelmingly against him, and if he convention were to be held now le could not get the New York dele ration, without which he would not ,e presented in the convention. Gen. ,ral conversation followed, going over much the same ground. The Presi- lent was not at all convinced of the of Mir. 0'Donohue's talk, out professed great willingness to be ldvised, and said that he would do all n his power to secure harmony and atIsfaction.
 I asked Mir. 0'Donohue what was he effect of the visit at the White House upon his personal opinion re- ,arding the President. "I went up here," he said in reply, "an anti Cleveland man, and I came away nore of an Cleveland man than ,ver. 1 leave Washington to-day op- posed to him and his policy, and I lon't care who knows it. I am glad I anne over here. Hound here Demo- rats from all sections of the country, md they are all of one way of think are opposed to Cleveland. have just come out of conference ,f representative Democrats where we discussed the general situation. There vas not a man who stood up for Cleveland or who would be for him n 1888, under any circumstances.
