MLAUGHLIN LIKE A SPHINX.
REFUSES TO TALK ABOUT DEMOCRATIC
POLITICS, BUT ENJOYED
HIS OUTING.

Hugh Mclaughlin, the veteran leader OF the
Kings County Democracy, returned last evening to
Brooklyn from Jamesport. Long Island, where he
aas spent months. Every question about poll
scs he either refused 70 answer parried deftly.
On every other subject brought UP he talked with
tuency but when the Governorship was preached
ae seemed uneasy. He shifted his weight from one
loot to the other and panied expression came over
his face. His attitude seemed to suggest that he
had something which he wanted to make public
but that something else holding him back.
A Tribune reporter called to see Mr. Mclaughlin
last night at his home. No. 1sa Remsen-st. He
had finished his dinner and standing, cane in
hand under a tree in front OF the house.
Not q word have TO say said Mr.. McLaugh-
I'm, anticipating the interview.
You are looking we'll" answered the reporter.
Eyes. yes I feel well have been away from
The city since July feel WE'LL he reiterated, as
he drew himself up straight and tapped the side
walk with his cane.
He was asked about the chances Of Controller
Coler for the Democratic nomination for Governor
Deaf to the question he continued to talk about
Jamesport
The fishing there was not SO good reported
he said, with smile. I'VE had to go some little
distance out into Great Peconic Bay"
'Wiu you continue 10 stay in Brooklyn?' asked
the reporter.
Yes but my wife is going to Saratoga Mon
day She will go up there TO attend the flower
festival"
viii you go to Saratoga also and attend the
State Convention on the 10TH" continued the
porter.
Why" he answered '.tust I said was
going 10 stay in Brooklyn. How could go up
there II I remain here
Asked whether he would support Croker or Hill
r. the convention he refused TO reply.
The Brooklyn Citizen" which all along has been
recognized the organ OF the Willoughby Street
organization has constantly been advocating the
nomination of Controller Coler for Governor by the
Democrats. Yesterday it said:
There is more than the usual interest mani
tested IN Mr.. McLaughln's home coming. This Is
because OF the fact, generally recognized that
upon Mr.. McLaughln's attitude will depend the
outcome Of the Democratic State Convention.
Thus far Mr.. Mclaughlin has kept his own coun-
orally entertained belief that he is strongly In
clined to favor the Controllers candidacy. II Is
also known that he is averse TO pressing Mr..
Coler's nomination at the risk Of open rupture
in the party.
Should the Croker-Afurphy combine refuse TO
ecuuesoe IN Mr.. Coler's nomination, then Mr.. Nc
Laughlin viii insist upon the right OF Senator Hill
70 name the candidate. Controller Coler's friends
have not given up all hope Of inducing Mr.. Nc
Iaughin stand with Hill for Coler in the State
convention. even with the prospect Of a break"
interests Of Kings County viii be protected at all
hazards
MI Mclaughlin asked II the article reflected
his views He said he had not read It. and de-
cIned tc hear It read TO him He would not talk
on the subject
