A move FOR
HARMONY.
Mr.. Hill and His Manager
Here to Win Over Grace
and Shepard Factions,
THEIR SUPPORT NECESSARY.
Hint Thrown Out that Hill MAJ
Not Accept if His
Mission Fails,
LIKELY TO CALL ON GAYN0R.
Part OF the Harmony Plan Is 10
Induce the Justice to
Accept.
LIKELY TO CALL ON GAYN0R

There is 10 be strong effort ma h AZ
once to harmonze the factions n he
Democratic party in this city. with a
view to uniting them In suppo.. OF the
State ticket II is conceded that II ihc
present situation of affairs continues for
two weeks longer the damage VIII be
irremediable.
So Mr.. John Boyd Thach,: Cnd Mr.
Hill and Chairman of the State Commit
tee Hinckley have come to tbwE for the
purpose of opening a sort OF FIith-Cure
bureau, in which old political Sures are
TO be healed by the laying on of hands
1t is given out that Mr.. Hin Is in town
on personal business. but 1t Is hard to
conceive of any more important business
that Mr.. Hin has on hand at the present
time than that of fixing mp his political
fences. 80 that he can corral and hold the
full party vote.
The talk OF third ticket and the out
spoken opposition OF Charles s., Fair
child. Edward NJ. Shepard oswald ct
tendorfer and others t. the nominees OF
the machine Convention have shown Mr..
Hills managers that their first efforts
must be directed towards overcoming
So Mr.. Hill is here to see and hc
seen. 1t ~ expected that an effort viii
be made to bring about meetings he
tween MIR. Fairchild and Mr.. I'M. and
Mr.. Shepard and Mr.. HIll. or between
personal representatives of the gentle
men named, on the subject of harmony.
At these meetings. 1t is believed, par
ticular stress will he laid upon the
efforts Mr.. Hin Is said 10 have made to
secure fair treatment IN the convention
for the ace-Fairchild and the Shepard
delegations.
OF this sort Is likely to be met with
the reply that the Senator's action IN
This connection was in the nature of u
bluff; that the rejection of anti-mRChlne
delegates was as much cut and dried
as any other part of the work of III"
Convention and that certain utterunces
were poured out in their behalf az u
sort Of balm to wounded feelings and
with the intention of seeming atonem' ut
,or the indignity II had already been dc
o'ded to inflict upon them.
Mr.. HIS friends claim to be able 10
prove the contrary, and there Is some
hope that they may succeed in doing so.
machine managers have Il trump card
in reserve for their last play, and that
this card IL Mr.. Hil's refusal to accept
the nomination, on the high ground that
as he Is not the choice of the whole
party he cannot consent to make the
rNcc as the representative of faction.
Taking into consideration Mr.. HilFs
known ability as a leader and his fight
ing qualities there is reason to believe
that this hint, IL 1t has been thrown out
at all, is hardly "A truthful indication OF
what may be eXpe"Ted.
Mr. Hill would ra.h"r eight to the
last ditch in the face of certain defeat
than 10 surrender without Il struggle. -
said one of his friends to-day, ami this
Is the opinion ~ G'S C1a"L"S. TO-.
Altogether the fight Is a mighty inter
esting one, and up to the present the
anti. mac hine leaders have succeeded
~ injecting greater lot of dlstrust and
doubt into the situation than has cX-
listed at this period in similar cam
paign in many years.
