NEW YORK, Oct. 23.-This has
been a day of conferences among dem
ocratic leaders with a view to straight
ening out the tanglings resulting from
| the nomination of fractional democratic
congressional candidates in this city
and Brooklyn. Senator Hill ad.
dressed himself to this task early
this morning and had the energetic
aid of Senator Faulkner, chairman
of the democratic congressional com
mittee, who came from Washington
last night. The latter was an active
mediator between the factions.
Private conferences We're held with
Faulkner by Mayor Gilroy and Police
Commissioner Martin, representing
Tammany and eX-AIayOr Grace and
Francis S. Scott, who ran for mayor
against Mayor Grant in 1890 on the
reform ticket, representing the county
democracy. All, it was stated, were
agreed on a policy of concession. The
terms of compromise, it is announced,
are practically decided upon by which
the knCts will be cut and the demo-
Gratis united on single congressional
candidate in each district. All the de-
tails have not yet been arranged. 1t
is known, however, that Tammany
has agreed to withdraw it's candidates
in two districts and the county de-
mOcracy in the others. The indica
tions at headquarters point to a with
drawal by Tammany of General Dan
iel Sickles in the tenth and Major
Walsh in the eighth. Dewitt Warner,
Robert Monroe and eX-COngressman
Dunphy are mentioned as the possible
Grace candidates.
The democratic managers have been
at work today in Brooklyn consult
ing, and express themselves as elated
over the prospect of unity. President
Cleveland'S departure from BuZzard'S
bay on his way to Washington was
IN event of Importance and gives way
to many rumors, among them one to
the effect that ne had agreed in the
event of this action of congressional
candidates to make a speech in Sena-
tor Hills favor before returning to
Washington.

Harlem" began tonight, Hill speaking
