AIpany Special to Brooklyn Eagle.
 HI Presidential stock has gone up styeTa points here within the past torty- eignt iours. For the first time there are II;snnptsms of discouragement among the ts ai ng. boomers. who greatly outnuihoer 1 I'll boomers, but are less eXperlehceu III SPterranean politics.
 sai Hills position as the leader oi the Souiy money movement to overthrow 1,olotel Bryan has been effectively estah- nshH. Democrats here-Parker as well sS xf Demoerats-agree that ho.nlniS hniSf snoG of a political revolution can despoil iiiIE of the immense party advantages ne las gained while his opponents have oeet slumberng.
 iHormation of unquestioned reliability now in the possession of Parker s friends ests3fshes the fact that the machine ieafers of New York and Indiana have plefged those States to Hill Chef Judge Parker is himself aware or the,situation. 1t is his present policy to renAin absolutely passive with respect to all changes in the Presidential outlook. IL known, however, to few Of his intimate friends that he has formed ccr- tain resolutions upon which he will act as ihe occasions arise later in the com paisn
 Fte will not refuse the Democratic n0mi- naqon for the Presidency if it Is rendered to him with substantial uhanimity, q plat form of principles satisfactory to con- sentative commercial and financial in- terests of the country having first been adopted.
 Parker Aware of Hills Ambitions.
 He Is aware that Hill cherishes ambi- tons for the presidency and believe that Hull has great tactical advantages in the struggle for the nomination.. While Parker has in no case analysed for tho benefit of others the clements of Hiiis strength those who know his methods of reasoning say that he comedies New York; through Murphy. Mclaughlin and Campbell, and Indiana through Taggart and Mulford, to Hill. Those States will make Hill, In Parker's opinion, for midable candidate for the nomination. Their loss will cOrresp spondngly enGangcr Parker's availability.
 Democratic politicians here are gancr- ally convinced that Senator Grady. the minority leader would not have thrown down the gage of battle to Senator Me Carren. a Parker man on Monday, but for the order of Hill Grady represents Murphy's Senatorial district in Manhat- tan. The suspicion that Murphy Is in close alliance with HiI and Mclaughlin and that three leaders have an under standing broad enough to cover city, State and national politics, is not new phy was IlIll man at Saratoga last year.
 Chief Judge Would Treat Bryan with
 Consideration.
 Judge Parkers very strong opinions on the subject of William J. Bryan. do not coincide with those of Hill. Parker is not infavor of the sound money out the South and West It may be said positively that Parker is at odds with the organizers of this movement. lie does not believe in drastic policy of dealing with the Nebraskan. He Is of the opinion that Bryan should be treated with great consideration
 Hill and the majority of the reorganiZ- CTS believe on the other hand, that a campaign of education should be made against Bryan among the Democratic voters, quietly and through machine run ways, by appeals to the party desire to win. Such a campaign should be sup ported they say by the best available management and heavy funds.
 Hills judgment Is expected to prevail It would not prevail if actively combatted by Parker; but Parker holds q judicial position upon wuhich he will not allow position upon which he will not allow ed not to do anything. important or trivial which will put him in the position of an avowed Presidential candidate Thinks Bryan's Irritation Will Sub
 side.
 Parker trusts to time to straighten out some of the kinks in the situation. He believes that Bryan was lied to while in the Last and that much of his present irritation will subside when the real facts develop later on. Any representations made to Bryan which picture Parker as d party Tn the anu Bryan CaDdl WOulu be dsproved. Parker thinks by the rival candidacy of Hill. Not only Parker but many of his real friends in the State believe that Bryan must eventually ap- preciate the fact that Parkers associa- ton with the reorganizers is matter of personal friendship. dating back to 1880 From these friendships Bryan has no right to assume. it Is argued. that Parker has been or will be swayed against him.
 It may be authoritatively stated that Parker will not be the DemocIatc Candl4 date for President unless he is supported by Bryan. He will reject a nomination tend red to him by any faction. It may be added that Parker does not expect the nomination to be tendcred to him If the war against Bryan is continued He thinks that Bryan will win in such a war by an overwhelming majority and be nominated for the Presidency himself He is quoted by a friend as saying:-"B Bryan is sure to be nominated d third time if the effort to drive him out of the party t,,.1 l
