ALI Foa CLEVELAND.

Hon. John c. Ioulter OF New York was
| in the city Yesterday Mr.. Moulser was a
member of the New York legislature eight
| years ago, but is Eow connected with one
OF the largest investment companies in the
| Empire state He Is an uncompromising
| disciple OF Jackson and prominent mem
Der of the organization known as the
| County Democracy" a reporter for the
| EAGLE bad short talk with him yeSter-
| day afternoon and found him exceedingly
| well posted in national politics, so far as
| they reiaoe 20 the nomination OF a Demo-
/ cratic ticket. He said that even in the
Empire state Hill Is too dead, as a pfcsi-
Dental candidate to skin, and that Cieye-
| land is the man who VIII be backed BY the
voice of New York. notwithstanding Hills
midwinter delegates.
I'VE are going TO hold convention in
| May" said he, that will elect delegates
| TO the Chicago convention, and / want to
make the prediction that they viii be rec
| ogniZed there. They Will be Cleveland
delegates, too, and win be sent there By
the decent element OF the New York De-
moeracy; an element that represents the
substantial interests OF the state

''Idon't think he will. Hill is hearing
from the country and the voice of the peo-
pie is SO strong in opposition 10 his tactics
that he will not dare offer himself as a
candidate when the time comes. While
he is an unserapulous triekster, neverthe-
less he is a smart fellow, and mark my
words his policy from now on viii be 10
try and restore himself to good standing
with the Democracy only. You will In
my opinion, hear him declare himself one
of these DAYS for CLEVELAND"
Don't you think he will knife Cieve-
land if that gentleman is nominated"
No. The fact is Hill must. cut Of
necessity, rather than choice, give Cleve-
land better support than would be ex-
pected from him if he had not the reputs-
ton OF being against him. Every move of
his will be watched with five million pairs
of Democratic eyes, and he knows il He
is really prejudged of treason against
Cleveland and if New York is lost
he will be blamed for it, whether he
is guilty or not, and he knows it. He wilt
be compelled then not only to take Cleye-
lands side but to do everything in his
power 20 carry the state for him. Hill has
none of the element Of a deliberate polite
al suicide and he knows very well that he
must carry the state TO avoid an untjmely
political end. " Do you think that German
viii be a candidate?
'No. This is strictly Cleveland year
and no other Democrat can be found to op-
pose him. No Democrat who has an am
bition TO become president can afford 20 be
candidate with Cleveland fever at its
present height. German and Gray and
Flower would all like to be candidates but
not till they can have respectable body
of people at their backs. There will be
but one regular candidate before the Chi
cago convention and he win be nominated
On the first ballot; and his name is Grover
Cleveland"
Mr. MouIter was on his way back TO
New York from Dallas, Tex He had been
in Wichita once before, about seven years
ago, and he was astouished at the strides
made by the city since then. He stated
that Kansas stands higher ID New York
financial circles now as it has at any time
since he has been connected with the in
yestment business.
