Esopus, n. Y, July 9.-The news OF

ruddy face breaking into a CHEEKY smile
in which satisfaction was undisguised
He asred for details of the final vote,
and displayed the liveliest interest in
every fact and figure at the same
time relraining from the slightest COM
ment
When asked If he would say any
thing on the matter Of his nomination,
he said:
mo, shall say nothing whatever
upon the subject until am formally
notified of my nomination"
He climbed up the steep bank to his
house and cordially received the greet
ings of the other newspaper men, who
had been waiting there. but again
declined to make any comment upon
the situation.
From 9:45 p. m. until six o'clock
Judge Parker remained in his room
which he left only to go to the river
for his usual swim.
At that time he knew only that there
had been an all night session Of the
convention and that the balloting had
begun.
There Is little doubt that Judge Park
er has been confident for many days
that he would be nominated. and while
he would not discuss this aspect of the
question Saturday morning, 1t was
plain that the announcement of the
result brought him no surprise unless

TAM MANY IN LINE.
Charles #. Murphy Quoted as Saying That
Organization win Give Him Its
Solid Support.

st. Louis, July 9.--To the Associated
press, Charles F. Murphy, of Tam
many said Saturday: mo one need
have any doubt where Tammany
stands in this presidential canvass. 1t
is solidly behind Alton B. Parker for
president. There is never any doubt
where Tammany stands when candi-
date is regularly nominated. We came
here with the belief that Cleveland
was the strongest man to nominate
and the easiest man to elect. 1t was
ascertain5d, after consultations that
in this conclusion We did not agree
with the majority of the delegates.
Now, that the convention has spoken
and paid the high honor to Judge
Parker, Tammany Hall will go to work
at once in New York county and roll up
for him the largest plurality ever given
to the presidential candidate Of the
democracy.

York and Judge Parker's name was
the first presented to the convention
After that Hearst, Gray. Cockrell,
Wall, Williams, Olney and Miles, were
named in speeches which took nearly
the entire night. In the end all the
claims of the Parker forces were
proved accurate. Parker had within
a few votes of enough to nominate
and these were forthcoming. The
speeches which had been cheered so
long and loud had neither made nor
lost a vote. The Parker forces. under
perfect control, remained serene.
After the nomination had been made
the convention adjourned until two
o'clock p. m, when a candidate for
vice president will be chosen. After
the close Of the convention many OF
the figures prominent In the contest
were surrounded by friends and hearth
ly congratulated. Notable among these
were David B. Hill, OF New York, who
has been in actual charge Of Judge
Parker's campaign. He laughed and
cried alternately.

Hail. daughter of Judge Parker. With
party of friends she remained
throughout the night She showed her
happiness with tears.

and August Belmont were jubilant over
the result. One Of the most interesting
phases Of the convention was the
fact that although early evening was
succeeded by darkness, darkness by
dawn and dawn by broad sunlight, at
least two-thirds OF all spectators, 30
per cent. of them women remained
until the nomination was made.
Mr.. Bryan left the convention hall
few minutes before the nomination
was made unanimous, but not before
he knew that Judge Parker was nomi-
mated. To several correspondents, who
were waiting for him at his hotel he
said that be had nothing to add to
what he had said in the convention,
which was that he would support any
candidate nominated on the platform
he had assisted in making.

1t may be added that those OF a

couraged by the fact that Judge Park

believes that Mr.. Bell intended to or did
defraud the state. 1t was undoubtedly
an error to be charged up to either the
printer or the auditor, and quite natural
ly the latter, in the rush in overlooking
the printers proof. 1t was a mere over
sight at the most, and was taken advan-
tage of by the Democratic agent in an
emergency, and it may be that it in
creased the vote for Mr.. Bell, WHO
