maze to get Judge Parker TO run. He also de-
clared that Devery would be admitted to the
convention. Then Mcclure nterposed and de-
clafed ne intended TO fight Devery to the hnlsh
PARKER OUT OF THE RACE.
After a second talk with Mr.. Hill, Mcclure
said that he understood that Judge Parker is

II any further attempt would be made to induce
MN to reconsider his decision
Judge Parker has declined absolutely, Mr..
Mcclure said, Ito make the run. He will not
accept the nomination for Governor, and, as

look further in that direction l have no idea
VINO will be the candidate My people. the
Democrats of Syracuse, 1 think, for Coler
ana Cantor. They remember that Jacob A.
cantor when a State Senator, did several things
lor syracuse, and are willing to do him a good
turn If he needs them
What about your own name going to the
convention for the Lieutenant Governorshtp?
Not bit of it, replied Mcclure promptly,
No show. and no desire"

DEVERY ASKED TO BE GOOD
An interesting rumor. which came from re-
liable sources, credited Hill with having sent a
representative to treat with Devery. who has
been sulkinE in his tent for several days and
planning a fierce descent on Saratoga The
gist of the MESA &c sent to the Big Chief was
that NJ would be admitted to the convention If

Evidently Hill breads the effect of the sort of
| tuHlpuS MY DeVery is calculated to stir II
he is refused admttance. II was also plainly
intlmated that If he did not agree TO the condi-
tons he would be summarily kicked out.
Devery mildly agreed to the overtures so the
story goes, and bound himself over to keep the
peace In the mean time he has planned high
links for his supporters. Five hundred OF the
