mng from New York TO Jacksonville,
Fla, passed through this city yesterday ut
$3.50. The train consists of six cars, one
passenger coach, one parlor smoker, one

COLONEL sISGERLy's VIEWS

COLONEL StNGEftbY's VIEWS
lie Believes that Mr.. Cleveland win br
the Democratic Nominee.
PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 0.--The BcoH-
ing CaU publishes to-day an interview
with William NJ. Singerly, proprietor
of the Record, on Mr.. Cleveland's
prospects for another term, of which
the following is a summary:
"Will Mr.. Cleveland be the Demo-
cratic nominee in 1882" was asked.
81 think so, unquestionably. lie is
the strongest man in his party"
'Is he stronger now than in 1881"
'He is very much stronger now
than then. The fears and misgivings
Of the business men of what might
happen in the event of the political
change in the Government have not
only been overcome, but the wise and
conservative course of Mr.. Cleveland
and in caring for the interests of the
whole people, without reference to
party effect or political clap-trap, has
demonstrated his fitness for the great
office Of President second TO no man
who has ever occupied that position" 3"
What effect has his recent Mes
sage had on his own personal position
and that Of his party2"
"The first effect OF that Message was
like thunder clap in clear sky. II
startled everybody because it was so
unexpected. But the reaction is sim
ply wonderful The business men,
merchants and manufacturers, with
out regard to former party associations,
are discussing the question Of tariff re-
vision in a manner unheard Of hereto
fore. There il n universal expression II
that the tariff should be adjusted so
that American manufacturers could
be given the advantage of their home
market"
"Can Cleveland carry New York on
a free trade PLATFORM"
"Thero is no free trade at issue.
But if you mean can Mr.. Cleveland
carry New York on platform of fair
trade and fair play for Americans,
say he can most certainly"
