The New York Herald publishes an interview with the President upon the result of the recent election, in which Mr. Cleveland says: “You desire to learn, you say, to what cause Tattribute our loss of New York. I answer frankly that I do not know. I should say”— and the President laughed quietly—‘that it was mainly because the other party had the most votes. Your remark when you first. en- tered the room indicates that you regard me as indifferent to the result. I am not indifferent. Tlook upon the situation from a practical and common sense standpoint. Itis not a personal matter. It is not proper to speak of it either as my victory or asmy defeat. It was a contest between two great parties battling fay the supremacy of certain well-defined principles. One party has won and the other has lost—that is all there is to it.” WAS HILL LOYAL? “Do you think, Mr. President, that Governor Hill acted in good faith toward you?” The President laid down the bundle of papers he had been holding in his hand, and with more feo nr than he had previously displayed, have not the slightest doubt of Governor Hill’s absolute good faith and honesty in the canvass. Nothing has ever occt to inter- i our kindly relations since we ran on the ticket together as governor and lieutenant-gov- ernor. “I would like to inquire, Mr. President, how ‘Mrs, Cleveland bears your defent?” “Oh, she feels about it just as Ido. Youknow We shall more as other folks do.” “Shall you continue your residence at Oak View or return to Buffalo?” I asked. “T haven't given that subject a thought, nor - | shall I for the present.

More important, however, than anything else is the fact that at the close of the polls on election day 600 Harrison and Waddill voters, with re- publican tickets in their hands, were waiting and offering to vote. Seeing the situation, at once Waddill's friends summoned « United States commissioner, who took the oaths of the men, made a record of their names, and, to- send with the Federal supervisors, saw the allots of these voters deposited in a box, vided for the occasion, and after- ward sealed up, Should, there be proof in the case making the delay in receiving these ballots to look like premeditated obstruction of the voters, the contest would probably take on a very serious aspect. IN LANGSTON'S CASE fraud will be charged in counting votes for Arnold and Venable, chiefly for the latter, which were in fact cast for Langston. Col. Brady clajms to have proof of this in the evidence of numerous tally-clerks who were stationed out- side the po! with instructions to take the names of @Wery Langston voter after ex- amining his ticket and watching its delivery to the judges of election, Spicy developments involving collusion of Mahone’s and Venable's friends to down Langston is promised by Brady. It looks, however, that the contest of Langston would be stoutly resisted by the entire white population, together with an influential minor- ity of the colored voters of the district. GEN.
