man for the Stats has recorded his dis
appreciation Of Mr.. Hearst NJ Democratic
candidate for Governor because Mr.. Hearst
allowed himself to DO nominated by a
guerrilla convention.
DIDN'T COME 70 VIoHT HEARST.
Mr.. Sulllvan's attention was called 10 a
despatch from Chicago wherein 1t was
stated that he lac come % Buffalo for the
purpose Of fighting Mr.. Hearst's nomina-
ton.
THAT despatch il an error said Mr..
Sullivan this afternoon, -for the reason
that 1 could not very well follow tho ex-
ample Of Mr.. Bryan. l have just had a
controversy with Mr.. Bryan because
rave objected to his meddling in the AZ
fairs Of our State. Mr.. Bryan took the
Illinois Democrats 10 task because they
have sustained me officially a. Democratic
national committeeman for the State. IL
would be manifestly improper for me to
come here and presume to advise my old
friend Mack or any Of the Democrats here
assembled "a TO what course they should
pursue in their o n ention, | am only
here as a locker on. l came along with
brother Hopkins to see brother Mack.
Ex-Mayor Hopkins, standing beside Mr..
Sullivan, said; IT hats right, Sullivan is
giving you the real goods. | came along
TO see Mack and my old friend John j..
Kennedy, who l am glad to see has been
reelected one Of the Democratic State
committeemen for Erie county
Both Mr.. Sullivan and Mr.. Hopkins said
that their interviews with Mr.. Hearst's
chief political manage had nothing to do
whatever with the political situation here.
It should be remembered, however That
NEST Democrats in the nation have learned
to look upon both Mr.. Sullivan and Mr..
Hopkins al very handy men. They did not
say 80 in so many words, but they rather
minated that Mr.. Hearsts ticket in Cook
county this fall might turn Chicago over
to the Republicans by 10000 majority.
Mr.. Hearst. it will therefore lie seen, is
extending his movement in his efforts to
disintegr1tc the Democratic party in every
State in the Union and bring about his W
nomination for President in 1908 at the
hands of a Hearst reorganiZed Democracy.
MURPHY AND CONFER.
Charles +. Murphy Of Tammany arrived
here this morning. accompanied by Thomas
F. Smith, secretary Of the organization.
Mr.. Murphy was met at Rochester by Finky
Corners, who had a long talk with Mr..
Hearst at Albion yesterday. Mr.. Corners
has been the ambassador extraordinary
between Mr.. Murphy and Mr.. Hearst for
several months. Mr.. Corners when in
New York city has put up at the Waldorf
Astoria, where he has conferred with Mr..
Murphy, and Mr.. Corners in his capacity as
ambassador would visit Mr.. Hearst at the
latter's home on Lexington avenue, within
pistol shot of the Waldorf-Astoria.
Mr.. Murphy has been with Mr.. Corners
all day, except for a short time this after
noon, when he discussed the political feat
ures OF the State with Mr.. Mack, Mr.. Sui
livan and Mr.. Hopkins Of Illinois. These
three men didn't talk about the weather;
they admitted that much. They did talk
politics, Democratic politics, but they said
that no conclusion had been reached Mr..
Corners admitted that he talked politics
with Mr.. Murphy and Mr.. Corners reiter-
ated his oft repeated statement that Mr..
Murphy and a majority OF the Tammany
delegation would insist upon the unit rule
for the lO5 delegates from Tammany and
that Mr.. Hearst would thus get the vote Of
the entire Tammany delegation.
Mr.. Mack's friends, when they heard this
from Mr.. Corners, said that Mr.. Corners
didn't know any more about the Tammany
situation than he did about running a news
paper or about the Democratic situation
in Erie county. One Of Mr.. Conners's friends
tool exception to-day to a description OF
Mr.. Hearst at the Orleans county fair yes
terday. Mr.. Hearst in this description was
depicted as a big framed man with a
squeaky voice.
~Hearst's money isn't squeaky; you can
bet your soul on that, said " Corners.
Mr.. Murphy didn't have anything Of i'm
Dortance to say. He continued to general
ize about Mr.. Hearst's strength in Tam
many, but he said that nothing definite
will be known until after the Fammany
caucus.
ADAM AND rom MOST TALKED OF.
Most of the talk as to the probable candi-
date Of the convention to-day favored
Mayor James n. Adam Of Buffalo or District
Attorney William Travers Jerome Of New
York CITY. Mayor Adams friends we're
especially active. District Attorney jerome
was visited at his headquarters in the lro-
uuois by many Democrats, and Tonight he
was Joined by ex-Mayor Thomas M. Os-
borne of Auburn, Henry A. Richmond and
many other Democrats who attended the
Albany conference on September 5 to pro-
test against the Democracy of the State
being turned over to Mr.. Hearst.

p be very largely represented on this occa-
. aion. L. is to present its views as to candi-
dates and platforms. That conference
represented the very best elements of
Democracy in this State. To put it in a
nutshell, the national Democrats from
other States and a great many New York
State Democrats had their eyes turned
steadfastly to-day on Mayor Adam and Mr.,
jerome. They admitted that they didn't
know exactly what. was to come out of the
Adam boom OF of the movement in favor
Of Mr.. Jerome. They said they preferred
TO await the result Of the caucJses OF the
New York, Kings county and Erie county
delegations, which are TO be held either
Tomorrow night or Tuesday morning. The
Tammany caucus and the Kings county
caucus may he delayed until Tuesday
morning, and Erie county, IL was said, viii
not hold it's caucus until a definite decision
has been reached by Tammany and the
Kings county men.
