the rest Of Mr.. Hearst's Independence

city on Septembe r IL has been thrown

their places.
While personal friends Of Charles F.
Murphy have not hesitated to say since
1 O'Clock this morning that Mr.. Murphy
has had a perfect understanding with Mr..
Hearst for several months they did not
care to go into details. Late this after
1907 Mr.. Murphy had a few words to say
as follows:
a great many delegations who wan
Hearst are coming in to see me, but have
also had visits from a large number Of
people who demand that the convention
shall nominate a straight Democrat. l
think that Hearst will be nominated. /
nave seen all the Tammany delegation
to-day and they are agreeable to the pro-
m I do not think it is necessary
20 cell n caucus. We ell know how tha
delegation stands and we will go into the
convention and vote as We have already
decided.
MY opinion is as | say, that Hearst will
be nominated, but you can never tell about
these things. The other side is fighting
hard and the result won't be known until
we meet in the convention"
ANTS UNITE ON sULzER.
The anti-Murphy people and the anti
Hearst people admitted tonight that in
their judgment they have about one chance
in a hundred OF beating Mr.. Hearts, nom
nation tomorrow. But they are going
to take that chance. JOIN b. S~tanchfield.

anti Murphy and anti-Hearst delegates
and he called than all together at the Trube
House. Mr.. Stanchisld addressed them
and advised them to stand firm in the con-
Vention tomorrow.
At first it was thought that these dele
z ates should stand by Mayor James N.
Adam Of Buffalo, but the second and final
verdict was that they should stand hard
and fast for Representative William Sulzer.
This decision was taken not because Mayor
Adams personal characteristics were I'M
appreciated but because Representative
Suffers political position and public record
more fitted him at the moment to fill the
tactical niche that he must occupy in to-
morrow's convention.
In the first place he in the candidate
Of the Sullivans, Big Tim and Little Tim
and yet Big Tins proxy at the meeting
OF the State committee last night aided
the Hearst people and the Murphy people
in capturing control OF the committee.
which carried with il control OF the com-
mittee on contested seats.
Representative Sullivan cannot, II was
urged tonight, withhold his support from
Rep preventative Sulzer in to-morrow's con-
v~ention. Especially, IL was urged, Mr..
Sullivan cannot withhold his support In
view Of the fact that Charles F. Murphy
has not called. and will not call, It was in
sisted, the Tammany delegation together
for the purpose OF caucusing on a candi-
date. Representative Sulzer will also, il
was announced, ave at his back in the
| convention tomorrow Senator McCarren
and the sixty-nine delegates from Kings
county, who to-day decided in caucus TO
support Justice GaynOr.
