CROKER COMING
 AS PEACEMAKER
Is Expected In New York Within a Month to Settle Tammany
 Dlsagreements.

Chicago, August 14-A special from New York to the Tribune says:
 Democrats who are interested In ex- Judge Parker's canvass became convinced tonight that Richard Croker would pay a visit to New York In little more than a month, and the statement was made that Croker immediately upon his ar rival would seek Charles F. Murphy with view of ascertaining why the trouble between him and Patrick McCarren could not be settled in an important Presl- dential campaign, when 1t is importance for all democrats to act in harmony, Croker has been absent from New York for about three years.
 Some of the most important democrats in the country have tried to adjust the troubles between Murphy and McCarren without success.
 Prominent democrats from other states. who have been here looking over the situation have been more discouraged over the situation In New York city than they have been over any other phase of the Parker campaign.
