GORMAN THANKS
 THE DELEGATION
SAYS MARYLANDERs PLAYED lM- PORTANT PART JN BRINGING ABOUT RESULT-HE COMM ENDS
 THE ACTION OF JUDGE PARKER.

Baltimore, Md. July 15.-Senator Cor man, who has refused to see all inter viewers or newspaper men since the opening of the St. Louis convention, sent today the following letter to the mem bers of the Maryland delegation at St. Louis:
 Dear Sir-As I was deprived of the pleasure of accompanying you to St. Louis, I wish now to thank you for the part you took as a delegate from this state in the convention. The course of the Maryland delegation at St. Louis could not I think, have been excelled, and they undoubtedly exercised great in fuence in bringing about the result.
 ''The final action of Judge Parker in sending in his telegram giving his views as to the monetary question and the re- sponse of the convention to this telegram have placed the democratic party in a position where. with the ticket nominat- ed. and the platform adopted, they should be successful in the coming elec- tion.
 Again thanking you for your personal kindness to me, l am, very truly,
 "A P. GORMAN.'
