Rochester Resolves Itself Into a
Contest Between Tammany
and up-Staters.

Rochester, N. Y, Sept. 15.--At the
conclusion OF day of extended con
ferences. participated In by practic
ally all the state leaders who are here
the nebulous conditions surrounding
the nomination by the Democratic
state convention OF candidate for
governor took definite form and the
problem is declared to have been re-
duced to a choice between Lieut.. Gov
Lewis Stuyvesant Chanler. who is be
ing urged by State Chairman Corners
and Justice james w. Gerard of New
York City, who is the choice OF
Charles +. Murphy, leader Of Tam
many Han.
The race seems to have resolved
itself into n contest between the up
state delegates, who are strongly in
favor of Chanler. and the Tammany
delegates, with their alliances through,
out the state, who will follow the sug
gestions of Mr.. Murphy.
Justice Gerard has long been promi.
nent in Democratic councils in New
York City and was elected last fall
to the supreme court bench. He has
heretofore been mentioned but casu.
ally in connection with the nomina.

which he was elevated last night came
as a surprise to close followers OF
the recent trend of affairs.
Significance has been attached 10
the fact that while each has differ.

absolute understanding between Chair.
man Conners and Leader Murphy and
that all talk of serious trouble be.
tween them is without foundation. Mr..
Murphy's word as TO a gubernatorial
candidate had been awaited here with
a great deal of anxiety.
The name of Supreme Court Justice
Philip II. Dugro of New York City
was also brought into the discussion OF
candidates for first place on the ticket
and 1t was intimated that he was
looked upon by Tammany Hall with
favor second only to that of Justice
Gerard.
The friends of Congressman William
Sulzer continued his candidacy and
declared they felt sure OF 125 votes.
