psreer for the Presidency. a plain, simple
minded man, he has never, except during hls
,ro terms rs Governor, excrciaed much lnhu-
e,ce In New Jersey poii'ics; but he has re-
,,t,ed all the more his popularity before the
nsouls when Senator stockton appeared on
,he yeranda OF the trenton House last nifht
I'm answer to "a seren de. lie " at hrsi coo'b
received. They thought he was Speaking
only for himself but when they found inc
bnrden OF his speech to be joel Parker the
natural heartlness OF the man was encouiaReu
To It's full play, and although he mas De II '"oheu
upon by the party managers as rather uoWh AT
the heel In politics. they found thelr MISTAKE
Than and to-day. Wherever individuals reputed
10 be- Marty sidefs were suspected oil lukewarm-
nss4toward Joel Parker, they had no business
in the Convention. Senator Leon Albeit and
e..Attorne, General Gilchfist OF Jersey CITY
wcrc rival candidates for one OF the places OF
senatorial delegate: and although senator 40
hat Ia one OF the ins, he found 1t desirable,
wien c illed upon at the serenade last night. to
o,ntradict report that he was opposed to joel
Parker. and to ailrn his feilty. Tho result was
th,tHudson county unanimo ously recommended
him IN caucus this morning; otherwise there
would have been a strong enough minority
AGAINST him to make 1t all interesting contest
before the Convention.
But the most significant result was the defeat
OF uenryC Krscy, Secretary Of state, by ex-
Senator stockton for Senatorial delegate. Mr..
stocxton was understood to be thoroughly at
one with the Parker interest, while Mr.. Kelsey,
AZ belonging to what Is called the Randolph
wing was supposed TO lie adverse to 1t. He got
only 81 votes to StOcgton's 1O. The contest
between Andrew smaller. the recently defeated
candidate for Mayor Of Newark, and John Nc.
a A lata. f.r 2ap.
torial delegate, resulted In smalleys defeat upon
similar grounds. Such a rumor defeated several
district delegates, among them District Attor-
ney @ rretson OF Jersey City, Sheriff Laverty be-
ipe the successful candidate.
