itics the Talk of New York.
New York: David B. Hills an
nounccment Of his retirement from
politics with the end of this year has
been discussed by both democrats
and republicans here. 1t is the politi'
cal sensation of the hour. 1t was
agreed on all sides that Mr.. Hill must
have an object in this step and the
opinion generally expressed was that
he had taken it for the double purpose
of relieving Judge Parker from en-
barraSsment and Of furthering the
candidacy Of John B. StanChficld for
governor.
1t is known that Mr.. Hill believes
that Mr.. Stanchfeld is entitled to the
democratic nomination this year after
having run in year when there was
no hope. Much opposition to Mr..
Stanchfield has been manifested on
the ground that he has been so closely
associated with Mr.. Hill that he would
be controlled by Mr.. Hill in case he
should be elected Gov. Odeil was
asked what he had to say regarding
the retirement Of Mr.. Hill.
Il am very grateful to MIN for not
retiring until Jan. l." he replied.
VIM. F. Sheehan, chairman of the
democratic national committee, refus-
ed to make comment on Mr.. Hills
course.
