Nominated, Politicians Say bined to Force a Declara- tion From the New York Jurist. leaders among the conservatives, as well as all those in Bryan camp, have combined to f »rce anexpression from Judge Parker as to his policy. Un- kas he takes either the bosses or the public into his confidence, it is de- clared that he can never be nominat ed for the presidency. Already enough votes have been sscured, 80 it is alleged, to prevent Judge Par- kor’s nomenation if he continues his attitude of silence. Is is not denied that Judge Parker can secure the Democratic nomina- tion if those who have such mauage- ment in charge are willing to make concessions to Democratic sentiment, But itis undoubtedly true that if David Bennett Hill attempts to run rough shod over the St. Louis con- vention he will succeed only in de- tvating his candidatefur the nomina- tion. Where the votes are to come from to accomplish this can easily be ret forth at this time, It is an open secret in Democratic sircles that William R. Hearst has ‘ abandoned all hopes of being nom!- “ nated for the presidency. He will ‘ have in the convention nearly 120 delegates. Mr. Bryan will con trol enough votes to bring this total to fall 200. This Bryan Hearst vote ie a starting point for the Democrats who are determined that the nominee for the preadency shall not enter the race as an unknown, Added to these 200 votes will be the delegates from states which have not instructed for any special candidate and whose State leaders have declined to com- wit themselves, The states which are counted upon to join in thiscombination are Penn- » aylvania, 68 delegutes; Ohio, 46; Maryland, 16; West Virginia, 14; South Carolina, 18, and one or two other soutern states, whose leaders are unwilling to enter the campaign areertain as to what their candidate might do if he should be elected pres- {dent. The states here enumerated : even if they should not be j iued by s other delegations, have 862 votes i the convention, when added to the Pe jagularly enough, ‘many cf those to have identified themselves with R the Parker movement in the south See are in active sympathy with this efort to f.rce a declaration direct om Judge Parker. The combina- fore, cannot be regarded ascomplotely antagonistic to Par willnet blindly follow his ship. smong those who have sodglt toeii.ct a combination that ¥ Ji deal directly wita Judge Parker, iis the impression that Hill’ will either make or unmake his candi- date. | Hitl’s manner of doing things has sjouraged thése who are imp!aca- { Sle in their Parker opposition to j hope that he will foliow his usual kor. hr 2 policy at St. Louis and refuse to a : make avy ccneessions. It Hill has ae: anfficient coutrol over Judge Parker i to prevent him from yielding to the iw demands which are made upon him, will indicate to the state bosses that Hill willexpect to control the administration in the event of Par- ker's election. Not even the best {riends cf Judge Parker in the south would be willing to accept him asa eandidate under euch conditions. The Democratic leaders everywhere will insist that Parker shake himself tree from Hill’s hold and come out in the open to make his fight. oO HE MUST SHAKE OFF HILL.
