They're Against Him.

~ PEAKING Of Senator Hill, to
~ whose "I-am-a-democrat" phrase
~ the Standard referred yesterday
it is not at all certain that he will
get back In a hurry the management
of democracy in New York. The SEN
ator has recently made ostentatious
display of his wish to render political
the cudgel against the Platt-Black
election continuance that is the product,
for republican benefit in the metropo-
lis. of the extra session of the New
York legislature.
The OF Tammany do not
take kindly to Mr.. Hills friendly offices.
they do not conceal their purpose to
ignore him. They expect to have IL out
with him in this years state w
ton, and the evidences of their activ-
ity are easily traced In the inland press
of New York. Among other influences,
that of the silver forces in the Empire
state has been stirred up, to a degree,
in opposition TO Hill-the Bryanites are
his sharp critics.
Not, perhaps, that silver has so very
much to hope for through the demo-
cratic supremacy of Richard Croker
and Senator Murphy, whose aim will
be to limit New York's politics to 10
cal issues But. in any event. silver's
friends In the New York democracy
have no use for Hil-they know, at
least. what not to expect from him.
The rivalry among these New York
democrats has only a casual interest
for the friends of free coinage. Con.
siderations of policy and of personal
interest will have most to do with
shaping that states democratic policy
with reference to the national cam
paign of 1900. The gratifying fact fol
silver's advocates Is that the lessor
these New York democrats learned In
1896 is a lasting one: that lesson is tina
New York democracy can no longet
walk into a national convention an
dictate its platform or name the par
tvs presidential candidate. Since lonl
before Tilden's time down to 1896 New
York could do this. but that prestig
has passed for all time to come.

CERvERA'S REPORT.

French Ambassador.
Washington, July 2s.-Admirai Ger
