ART OF INTERVIEWING.
How Leading Public Men Receive
the ReDOrter

How Leading Public Men Receive
the Reporter.
NEW YORK. Feb. 17.-Intervie wing
has become a fine art. Some men in
public life. congressman, for instance,
will express their views frankly and
freely on any topic of general interest;
others will talk without saying anything
worth publishing, while others will not
talk at all. The task of newspaper
writer who seeks their opinions to
transmit them to the public is therefore
peculiar and often difficult. He has an
excellent schooling in the study of the
various characteristics of human nat
ure. He needs confidence, determine
ton and nerve to succeed, and with
some men even these requisites fail.
There are few congressman, prin-
cipally the new and younger. ones, who,
| if given an opportunity, will talk to an
interviewer inde efnitely, aud they are
usually disappointed if all they say is
not taken down and published. But
garrullty is not. howsRer. common. !.
Among members of the upper branch
of congress who never refuse to
express their opinion in an In
terview are Senators Pugh. of
Alabama: Call. of Florida; Stewart,
Eof Nevada: Cullom, of Illinois; Sher-
man and Brice, of Ohio: Allison. of
Iowa; White. of California;; Pettigrew.
hof South Dakota; Hansbrongh,o of North
Dakota; Ransom, of North Carolina ;
IWashburn, of Minnesota; Hawley. of
Connecticut, and Chandler, of New
| Hampshire.
| Senator Pugh, of Alabama. generally
Esays what he thinks, no matter who or
where his remarks strike. lie seems to
be man with honest convictions and
not in the least afraid to express them.
He is one of the easiest men in the sem
late to interview, because it is not neces-
Esary to corner him or to pump out an
lswers to all questions. He never gets
texcited while talking on subjects in
/ which lie is interested. Next to
Pugh, Senator Stewart, of Nevada,
is pliable man, for the in
| terviewer. He talks rapidly and
with a show of enthusiasm, espe-
cially on the free coinage question. He
will talk as long as the interviewer
wants him TO.
| Senator Chandler is deliberate in his
answers and is usually willing to ex-
press his views on any topic Of national
interest and is always courteous to
St. Paul daily globe., 1894-04-29

newspaper men. The senators who are
not fond Of being interviewed are quite
numerous. Among them are Senators
Hill and Murphy. Senators HOar and
Lodge, of Massachusetts, are also hope
less cases. Neither of them will talk to
New York reporters. The former was
recently called upon by new reporter.
When he was ushered in the senator's S
room. anticipating long interview, the
Bay state statesman said, II haven't
anything to say"
caught in the Fifth Avenue hotel cor
ridor by reporter of Republican
newspaper, who said:
II represent the press. want to-
Before the question was finished. the
senator replied. II am glad to see the
press so we'll represented. Good morn
ing. 'and suddenly disappeared into the
elevator
Senator German. of Maryland,is pleas
aDr, but evasive, and is one of those who
talk to interviewers without saying any
thing that can be printed. His manners
suggest that he knows good many in
side. things. but will not give them away.
Senator Jones, of Nevada, and Senator
WalcOtt, of Colorado. are not easy prey.
The former offers excuses and promises
to talk ''some other day" If a reporter
gets an interview with him it must be
''caught on the fly" The same might
be said of Senator Aldrich, of Rhode
Island. He is seldom in TO reporters in
New York, and when he Is accidentally
met in the hotel corridor, he says he has
no time to talk. Senator Proctor, of
Vermont, is not fond Of interviews /;
when reporters attempt to get his views,
he usually escapes by edging off and
finally telling them he hasn't anything
to say. Senator Vest, of Missouri. is a
meditative statesman ana is seldom
taikative to reporters. He has pecu-
jammed into his trousers pockets and
with his siouch hat pulled over his eyes.
Speaker Charles F. Crisp has fire.
quently given New York reporters long
interviews. He Is always affable and
courteous to them whether he talks or
| not. Representatives Tom johnson, of
OHIO, McCreary and Breckenridge,
| of Kentucky, Springer, OF Illinois, Nc
Millin, of Tennessee, Champ Clark. of
Missouri, and many other members of
the house are not opposed to intervie ws,
providing their opinions are asked on
| any national topic and are correctly
quoted.
Ex-senator Thomas G.. Platt. whose
name is in the newspapers daily,is gen.
| erous source of information. He seldom
| refuses to be interviewed, but often
tells things to political reporters. which,
if published, would incur his displeas-
ure. He knows in whom he can confide
some secrets without risk of publicity.
There are other politicians like him in
the state and country, so far as talking
not for publication. but tor the private
use of the interviewer.
