Democrats of New York state in con
yention here today nominated bt ac.
clamation Lieutenant Governor Lewis
|Stuyvesant Chanler for governor. The
differences existing between Charles
F. Murphy. State Chairman Connors
and Patrick F. McCarren. of Brooklyn,
were ironed out last night before the
committees and the party has united
for the coming campaign McCarren
ibid not present his resolution, calling

| Tamnany Ruled the Roost.
| Just before the convention was call
ed to order this morning at ll:a5
O'Clock, William j. Connors. chairman
iof the state central committee. and
Charles F. Murphy, the leader of Tam
imany, gave out the following forecast
of nominations
GOvernOr-LewiS Stuyvesant Chan
Her; Lieutenant Goyernor--John A.
Dix; Secretary of StateJohn S
IWhalen; Comptroller--Martin H
Glinn: Attorney General-George NJ
Palmer: Treasurer-Julius Hauser.
| The slate, with the exception Of the
candidate for lieutenant governor was
the same as was decided upon at the
all-night conference last night. The Sc
lection OF Dix was big surprise as it
was taken as settled that Francis Bur
ton Harrison, of New York City, would
lbe chosen. 1t Is believed the leaders
desired to strengthen the ticket with
ian upstate man and also made the dis
Icard to keep Harrison for the congress-
ional nomination.
The convention was not called to ord
Ter until an hour after the appointed
thine as the resolutions committee was
not ready to report.
| No Contest Over Delegates.
The credentials committee announe-
led that there were no contests to be
Submitted to the convention. When
this announcement was made it was
|greeted with cheers. Judge Alton B.
Parker, permanent chairman, was then
presented to the convention and made
la lengthy address. Not the least strik-
ling features of his address was the
declaration that the Republican vice
presidential nominee James s. Sher
Imam, invaded Wall Street for contribu
ltions in the 1906 campaign when Sher
Imam was chairman Of the congress
ional committee.
Evidence of this is not wanting"
lsaid Parker, cor of the set purpose Of
Headers Of the Republican party to CON
| Itinue their plan of securing funds from
Those who are interested either in leg.
lislation or the non-enforcement OF
|law."
Parker charged the Republicans with
! lgross extravaganza in federal admins
. tration He also told of the meeting
] between Edward H. Hartman and
, president Roosevelt at Washington,
. when the President is alleged to have
r asked Harriman's assistance in rails
ing campaign funds.
; Platform Endorses Bryan.
The platform adopted devotes con.
siderable attention to national politics
and candidates, heartily endorsing the
national Democratic platform and the
national nominees of this party, pay
ling glowing tributes to both Bryan and
Kern. In the state issues the platform
: denounces the Republican governors
!, since the administration of David B.
: Hill and says that government by com
= mission is only another evidence OF the
Republican policy Of Capitalization and
is in direct opposition to the principles
of government by the people.
