DELEGATES FOR PARKER.

Buffalo. Rochester, Syracuse and Many Smaller Cities For the Judge.
 NEW YORK, March 31.--Men who follow closely the national situation in politics feel confident in predicting an instructed delegation for Judge Parker to the St. Louis convention because of the result of the primaries in the state. says the New York World.
 Buffalo, Rochester Syracuse and many smaller cities, with their coun- ties, have elected Parker delegates. so that notwithstanding the fact that Brooklyn will have only fiftyfour Par ker delegates instead of sixty three, as was expected by Senator McCarren, Judge Parker seems assured of a good working majority in the state conven- ton.
 It is thought now that the situation has cleared and there is no longer any thing to be gained by fighting Judge Parker that the leader of Tammany Hall will see the wisdom of indorsing him.
 In Buffalo, where William J. Con- nors controls the party organization, he made ga fight for Murphy, for delegates to go uninstructed. Connors lost the delegation, Norman F. Mack carrying all but one of the assembly districts

All of the money thus secured was used for char ity. At least this is the substance of a confession made by Dewing.
 Dewing, who is said to have made a practice of buying mileage tickets at half rates, claiming that he was a min ister, and then selling the tickets to Chicago brokers, was arrested in the offices of the Michigan Central railway while waiting for ticket to be coun- tersigned by officers of the company.
 In his confession Dewing said: "Yes; I admit that purchased mileage at preachers rates and sold 1t to ticket brokers. I used every cent of the mon ey to better the condition of the poor of Chicago, though, and if I have greatly sinned I'm sure that God will overlook the fault"
