HILL WILL RETIRE. Leader Of New York Democrats Will Not Be In Politics After January i. Estpus. N. Y., August 29.-Judge Parker refused to make any state ient or to give out any expression of opinion today regarding David B. Hill's intention to retire from politi cal leadership of his party in New York on January first next. It is pointed out that Mr. Hill let it be known some time since that he would accept no office under the ad ministration if Parker should be elected. and it is recalled that he said he would retire a year ago had it not been for the fact that friends urged hinm to remain in comm!andl of the demi icratic forces in New York until after the present presidential campaign. It s gnerally believed that Mr. H ill will appear in the campaign onlyv 'n rare occasions. and( that his speechies at countty fairs will con)i it.' his otnly work. Judge Parker spent the day going *tver his letter of acceptance, which is now nearing hnal completion. Hill's Retirement. Albany. N. Y., August 20.-David B.
