TROUP SEES JUDGE PARKER
CANDIDATE sTRIVlNG TO UNITE
 DEMOCRATIC FACTIONS.

pr. John H. Girdner, Bryan's Host
 Whenever He Was in New York, Also
 Visits the Judge-Raynor and Cor
 man of Maryland Meet and, 1t is Said,
 Differences in That State Have Been
 Buried for the Present.
 New York, Sept. 29. Indicative of an effort on the part of Judge Parker to unite all factions and bring together ina1yiduals whose personal differences might interfere with harmonious work for the national ticket, his callers dur ing the next three days of his present tri,, to New York have included repre- santatives of every wing of the demo- cratic party.
 In this connection conspicuous among those who visited the candidate to-day were Dr.. John H. Girdner, who has been the host of William Jennings Bry- an whenever he came to New York, and Alexander Troup of New Haven who served as chairman of the Con- necticut state committee and conduct cd an enthusiastic campaign for Colo nel Bryan four years ago. Others prom inent in Connecticut democracy have called on Judge Parker. Among them were Judge Robertson, the candidate for governor, and Homer S. Cummings, the member of the national committee.
 The incident that has created the most notable comment was the meet ing between Senators Arthur F. Cor man and Isador Rayner of Maryland accompanied by an announcement iron their political associates that whatever differences heretofore existing between Maryland leaders have been dissfpatet at least so far as the present campaign is coffcerned. Former Representative Ben Y. Cable of Illinois, who called on the judge, is another whose coming is said to mean a unit of effort from op posing organizations of the Illinois democracy.
 The candidate has made many ac- auaintances on this visit to New York Much of his time has been taken up by conferences with National Chairman Taggart, Senator German, William F, sheehan, Delancey Nicoll, August Bel mont, George F. Parker, Daniel Mo Conville, and others attached to the na- tional headquarters but he has had tht opportunity as well to see scores of leading democrats who came to New York for the sole purpose of meeting him.
 Senator ". A. Clark of Moptana made an appointment to see Judge Parker tomorrow morning. J. H. Robb who has been active in New York poli- tics for many years, and Governor Benton McMillan of Tennessee were among those who called late in the day Few callers were admitted to Judge Parker's apartments tonight. v.
