Dsopus, N. Y, July 1s-Esopus took
ON new atmosphere today with the
arrival OF the first train bringing Now
York newspapers. The conference
OF New York Democrats held last
night at the Hoffman house was the
subject Of the keenest interest to tho
villagers. who hitherto have been
content In the knowledge Of Judge
Parker's nomination, without bother
Ing about any of the details or gossip
connected with his campaign. The
judge himself showed an interest be-
yond his usual calm and at breakfast
read the newspaper accounts of the
conference with close attention, but.
- usual, without any comment which
could reach the newspaper men.
A report Is current that there will
DO an effort to get Judge Parker to
begin his active campaign in the mid
die west with speech az CnIcaE0
soon after the notification ceremonies.
It is understood that Mayor Carter H.
Harrison. Of Chicago, Is anxious not
only to have the first big gun of the
campaign fred In Chicago. but to have

lsuch rs Chicago, Philadelphia and
New York, and possibly Boston.

tomorrow. he probably will be accom-

announced at Rosemount today that
Judge Parker had sent the senator an
invitation to come with Mr.. Davis.
Whether or not the senator's visit will
have any bearing upon the selection

tee could not be learned However.
It is said that the question of national
chairman is still open and will not be
finally. settled for some days.
Today's information seems to give
added force to the impression that
Judge Parker will not resign his posi-
ton in the court of appeals until af.
ter the formal notification of his nom
instion. This would delay the resig.
nation until after Aug. 8; and thus
prevent the election OF his successor
