CLAYTON FOR PARKER
THINKS NEW YORK JuRIsr MAN
 FOR NOMINATION.
Alabama Member of National Demo- cratic Executive Committee Says the Chief Justice is One Avail
 able Man Without
 Enemies.

Washington, June ao.--tspeciai.) Rep resentative Henry D. Clayton of tho Third Alabama District. who is the Ala Executive Committee. said tonight:
 T am more than ever of the opinion that Judge Alton B. Parker of New York is the man the Democratic party should nominate for President next year. The Democratic party has had its factions and all the men who have been named in connection with the nomination next year are objectionable to some one of these factions with the single exception of Judge Parker.
 ''I cannot think that there is anything worthy of serious consideration in any plea that Judge Parker is unknown. A man who can win for his party the only victory it has won in the ten years and be elected to the eminent office of Chief Justice of the Court of Appeals of the greatest State of the Union cxe neither be said to be obscure nor lacking in quality of statesmanship that commend him to the sober judgment of the peo- pie.
 Judge Parker showed he knew some thing about practical politics when as OenOcrdtlc state Chalrman, ne managed the campaign which elected David B. Hili Governor of New York. Since Judge Parker's election to the bench in 1897, when he carried the State by 5000 a year after it had gone Republican by away over 100000 he has been strictly faithful to his obligations to the judicial Interests of the State and has refrained from activity in politics His bearing has all along been admirable and [ believe that by the time of the National Conven- tion he will so widely have commended himself to Democrats throughout the country that his nomination will follow as certain as the convention assemblies"

ATTITUDE OF FRANCE.
Delcasse Likely to Deprecate the
 Servian Tragedies.

Paris, June 2O.-Foreign Minister Dels casse's colleagues express the belief that he Is likely to deprecate the Servlan tragdes by an explanation similar to those of Russia and Austria. but 1t is pointed out that King Peter took the in-
 tiative in the cases of Russia and Austria by telegraphing to the Czar and Emperor Francis Joseph thus afforfing them the opportunity for Russian and Austrian responses. whereas the Servian King has not addressed the other pow CTS, and, consequently. has not afven them an opportunity to make rejoinders
 The opportunity however. will coma when the question of the recognition If King Peter arises. In the meanwhile, the French Minister at Belgrade has been in- structed to restrict his action to current routine affairs and to maintain in a neu- tral attitude towards the new regime yn- til the question of the kings recognition is formally decided. This will not come to the front untiF after King Peter's ar. rival in Belgrade, his formal Assumption of power. and his notice of that assunsp- ton to the foreign ministers.
