WILLIAM c. WHITNEY PREDICTS THAT MKINLEY
WILL HAVE 10000 MAJORITY IN THIS STATE.
philadelphia Aug THE Evening Telegrap PHI
publishes an interview with ex-Secretary Whitney,
telegraphed to that paper from New-York this
afternoon Mr. Whitney expresses the belief that
Mckinley will carry New-York State by 100000 ma
jority The interview follows:
rs II true, Mr.. Whitney that you class New
York State as dOubtful?"
True sir? There Is not word OF truth In 1t. 1t
IS not only false but 1t is absolutely false"
WAS the statement circulated with the object of
placing you In compromising position and for a
mercenary purpose|
These people have object and power TO
effect any compromise in my opinion. Unfortu-
nately perhaps. I am regarded as leader Of the
sound money movement in the Democratic party,
and good many people, whether wisely or not,
attach Importance to my utterances When It IS
alleged that yield New-York to the silver people
they regard the situation Of sound money peril
Gus. Knowing this to be the effect of what such
a statement from the subject would be. the
bear element which has been raidng stocks for
long time and which wants some new argument 70
further depress, has most unwarrantaby seized
upon my name, and rascally attributed this
declaration to me. 1t is false wholly false"
Then you do not give up the State?'
What! Give up the State OF New-York
issue which means reputation? Never. There is
in yielding an inch Of their ground. On the
trary, you may express 1t as my firm conviction
that Mr. Mckinley will carry this State by fully
100000 majority. and in that majority you will find
men Of all classes, who put patriotism parti-
sanshp in issue Of this kind have no hesita-
ton in expressing this belief. 1t comes from what
l have seen, what | have heard, what have in
yestigated and what / know. People who under
stand me would not for an instant accept as true
any such statement that attributed TO to-
day: but there are thousands who do not know
me who would readily accept any such report. and
that is all the bears want To start break II Is
only necessary 10 cause fright"
you have never given up New-York?'
Never. When the Chicago Convention turned
deaf to the Empire State delegation New
York lost to the nominees II selected, and from
that day the native honesty OF people has been
steadily asserting itself in antagonism the vi
cious silver heresy. You may say for me that II
have any utterance to make on the status OF the
present National contest, It will not be by vague
report coming from manoeuyring clique OF
brokers who are trying to ruin credits and the
public may as well take this as hint toward the
truth now"
