mated for Associate Judge OF tne CourV
OF Appeals he will not take the nomination
for Attorney General again.
without being too severe personally on
Mr.. CInneen. the remarks OF influential
Democrats here should be recorded, and
they are all to the effect that they don't
care red apple whether Cunneen is on the
ticket or not, either as Associate Judge OF
the Court OF Appeals or as Attorney General.
They continue to speak of Mr., Cunneen
:, "a but "a cog in the Odell machiae" and
they recount how Mr.. Cunneen within the
last two years has learned to regard him
self az the Governor-C hairman's personal
attorney, rather than as Attorney-General
of all the people of the State. So that it
should be reiterated that the most influen-
tial Democrats here wouldn't care flap
Jack whether Cunneen is on the ticket or
of the ticket.
HoRNBLowER KILLS HIS BOOM.
A few words should be said concerning
William B. Hornblower. The thinking
Democrats OF the party here said that his
speech in the convention to-day was the
greatest Democratic speech that they had
heard In years. Some Of them thought
that Mr.. Hornblower would make a fine
candidate for Governor and the Horn
blower boom called for great deal OF COM
ment.
Tammany Chieftain Murphy while adj
herring to his announcement that Tammany
had no candidate for Governor to present
to this convention, said that MIR. Horn
blower would make a splendid candidate.
Mr.. Murphy at one time favored the nomi-
nation OF Charles W. Goodyear Of Buffalo,
until Mr.. Goodyear said that he was not
candidate for the nomination. Mr. Murphy
said on number of occasions: What Is
the good OF looking back on the record Of
Democrats so long as they are able and
honest menu Let us get big man for
Governor: a man who will give the State
a splendid administration. Let us look to
the future and not to the past"
The rank and file though. some Of them
are very keen, recalled that Mr. Hornblower
had not been friendly to Mr.. Bryan in
1895 and 1900. Mr., Hornblower, how
ever, settled his boom quickly by de-
claring: They would have to chloroform
me before took the nomination for Gov
ernor."
Mr.. Hornblower has a great practice in
New York city and elsewhere in the United
States.
CIRCULAR IN SUPPORT OF SHEPARD.
Some folks said that the Edward M.
Shepard boom was not altogether dead.
and in proof of this statement thousands
of circulars were strewn broadcast in hotel
corridors and elsewhere telling of Mr.
Shepards qualifications. This circular
WAS addressed to the delegates of the con-
vention and was signed by a committee from
the Brooklyn Democratic Club, as follows:
Daniel Moynahan, chairman; r. W.
Bainbridge; Walter H. Bum; A. G. Calder,
W. E. Clearly. Richard Dixon, Marshal s.
briggs, A. Fl. Eastmond, c. j. Edwards,

IN, n'oARREN WILL NOT HAVE SHEPARD.
But Senator McCarren won't have any
Of Shepard. Senator McCarren objects
very much to the Democrats who want
Justice d. Cady Herrick. and he does not
believe that Tammany Chieftain Murphy's

The Grout people, in other words, do
not believe that any Democrat should
object to their candidate, and yet they
reserve for themselves the right to Ratchet
any other candidate who stands in CIRCUITS
pathway.
The Kings county delegation had meet

lieved that he was dead without hope of
resusotation, and the fifteen delegates
who are opposed to Senator McCarren's
domination in the county did not care
to 60 on record in opposition to Circuit
So the delegation adjourned pending a
development OF the Grout sentiment in
other counties.
If Mr.. Cunneen persists in declining any
place on the ticket save that Of Associate
Judge OF the Court of Appeals, Charles N.
Bulger OF Oswego will be nominated for
Attorney General. Judge Bulger had a long
talk tonight with William F. Sheehan and
August Belmont, and later Mr.. Bulger and
Mr.. Sheehan talked the matter over with
David B. Hill.
EFFORTS TO WIN MURPHY ovBR.
After that Tammany Cheftain Murphy

No one else was present. Mr.. Sheehan has
said that IL the situation continues to drift
as II has, Grout would be nominated for
Governor; and while he has been very care
full not to announce his choice, Mr.. Sheehan
has felt this evening that If Grout were to
be nominated he had better be nominated
with the consent of Tammany Chieftain
Murphy, rather than in spite of it.
Mr. Murphy has felt 1t was said, that
Mr.. circuit is not particularly well thought
Of by the rank and file Of Tanmany Hall and
Dat In view OF this feeling it might be
difficult for Tammany @to hold it's vote for
Grout' on election day.
Mr. Murphy, it was said, informed Mr..
sheehan Of this feeling in the Tammany
organization and he continued to oppose
the nomination. AS a last resort, though,
John B. Mcdonald invited Mr.. Murphy,
President John Fox OF the Democratic
Club, Representative Bourke Cochran.
Senator Victor j. Bowling and several
others to dinner tonight out at the lake.
When Mr.. Murphy left Mr.. Sheehan this
evening he said that he would have a fur
