CONNERS BELITTLES

Zeal Democrats Did Not Meet
or Hurt Hearst, Adds
-3 Hirshfield.
BOTH HIT AT INTERESTS
Hylan Suggested to Organize
Women for Backing Pub
Usher for Governor.

The Hearst political forces, includ-
ing William j. Conners and Commits
sioner David IL@.-shheld. were undismay-
ed yesterday over the Syracuse confer
ence anS the action It took against
William r. Hearst. Both made light OF
the conference and ascribed to 1t a de-
sire to further the purposes of the So
called Interests"
At the same time some light was
thrown on the Hearst program with
reference to the women. While the new
organization that has established itself
in the Pennsylvania Hotel and is to
hold a luncheon on Tuesday, is not
supposed to be interested in candidates,
but rather in principles, there are good
reasons to believe that 1t Will develop
into a Hearst organization. 1t has been
suggested by those close to the Hearst
manager, Conners, that the duty OF
organizing the women for Hearst VIII
fall to Mayor Hyian.
Conners said of the Syracuse meet
ing:

According to legal authorities there Ii
no precedent for conferring the right to
Horatio w. Bottomley to appear in the
House of Commons when his seat had
been declared vacant, but according to
widespread speculation an exception was
made in his case because II was his last
chance to make public defense. This
week he lost his plea for an appeal
from conviction on the charge of d.

other clubs he founded. u

but I do not see that it has any par
ticular Importance SO far as the party Is
concerned"
Then, rather ambiguously, Conners
went on to talk of the Hearst Syracuse
Conference" 70 be held in September.
II was made more or less clear later IN
his statement that he was referring 10
the Democratic state Convention. He
saws this is going TO be a Hearst con-
ference, md that the real leaders OF
the Democratic party are not going TO
permit personal antagonisms or the
secret influences OF special interests TO
interfere with the conference. the
only Democratic conference which has
any justification under our present laws"
This meeting. he says. with slap at

work to unite and not divide the party.
Hlrshfield's interview" was much
along the same lines. The conference,
he said, will have just the opposite
effect It is expected to have. Irrespective
of the fact that they made themselves
ridiculous they have called attention TO

Hearst's advocacy or stand on public
