ESOPUS, Aug. 9.—Preparations are Practically complete at Rosemount to- night for the formal notification to- ! morrow of Judge A. B. Parker of his romination as Democratic candidate for the Presidency. These prepara- tions are notably simple. In the morn- ¢ flags and bunting will be draped about the low platform from which the speeches are to be delivered and seats will be arranged conveniently, about it on the lawn north of the house. Every- thing will then be in readiness for the arrival of the steamer which will bring the notification com- mittee from New York City. The boat is expected to arrive between 1:30 and 2 p. m, and in case of inclement weather the notification ceremony will ake place upon the boat. It is expect- d that 1500 people will be present to hear the speeches, 500 of them from Ulster County, in which the Judge's home is located. The formal ceremony will probably begin between 2:30 and 3 p. m. and will | occupy about two hours. The opening speech will be that of | Chairman Champ Clark of Missouri, who will formally, notify Judge Parker of his nomination and will present to him a certified copy of the platform adopted by the St. Louis convention and of the message decided upon by the | convention in reply to the Judge's tele- | the gold standard sent to! gram on William F. Sheehan. Judge Parker will follow Clark with his speech for- mally accepting the nomination. No | other speeches are arranged for. The ceremony will be followed by an which the Daniel 8. Lamont, former Secretary of War, whose name is prominently mentioned in connection with the Dem- ocratic nomination for Gqvernor of | New York, and United States Judge George Gray of Delaware were visit- ors at Rosemount to-day. Judge Gray would not talk politics. his own visit had no political signifi- cance. He said, however, that he was not a candidate for the nomination for Governor. Moreover, he declared that he believed an emergency that would make it his duty to accept such a nom- ination was very remote. NEW YORK, Aug. 9.—Many promi- nent Democrats were in the city to- night to make final arrangements for the notification of Judge Parker to- morrow. The notification committee | met and approved a draft of the for- mal notification. It was said to-night that not only will Charles F. Murphy go to Esopus, but nearly every Tammany district leader will be there. Many members Committee have re- turned to 'the city and will go to Eso- pus to-morrow. TSR ON THE TICKET TO STAY. — . Delaware Nominee for Governor Will Not Be Drawn Down. DOVER, Del., Aug. 9~—Dr. Joseph Chandler, when he was nominated for Governor of Delaware by the ‘“regu- lar” Republican convention created a profound stir by taking the platform and declaring that he accept- ed the nomination under the sole con- sideration that he would enter the fight to the end and stay on the ticket until November. “I would rather suffer honest de- feat,” he declared, “than be pulled off the ticket that somebody erse might be substituted.” This was received with deafening cheers from the Dupont men, who had won a victory over the Higgins forces in nominating Chandler. The regulars who composed to-day's convention are really outnumbered by the union, or Addicks, Republicans, and when in recent years they have made out a ticket it has alwavs been with the understanding that a truce would be patched up later and that the Republican factions would agree to trade and substitute nominees, making one ticket to meet the union Republi- cans’ demands. Many of the Dupont delegates, after the completién of the State ticket to- day, believing they had won a victory against any alliance with Addigks, or Addicks Republicans, left for their | homes. | The Higgins men, who are more con- | ciliatory to the Addicks Republicans, | and desire one State ticket, even at a sacrifice, after manv of the delegates had left, empowered the State Central Committee to make any changes upon the ticket named to-day which, in its judgment, was necessary about the success of the whole Repub- lican ticket in Delaware. a The ticket was completed as follows: Presidential electors—Thomas H. Sa- vey of Newcastle, Manlove Hayes of Kent and Dr. Willlam Pa» Orr of Sus- sex; Governor, Dr. Joseph H. Chand- ler; Lieutemant Governor, Samuel H. Derby; Congress, Horace G. Knowles; Attorney General, Robert H. Richards; Insurance Commissioner, Charles Maull; Treasurer, Thomas N. Rawlins; Auditor of Accounts, George H. Dick. The platform indorsed evelt and demands the vigorous efforcement of Delaware laws against bribery. ; It is not considered possible that the union Republicans will indorse the nomination of Dr. Chandler for Gov- ernor, although they may not object to Knowles for Congress or Richards for Attorney General. Bt MAY'TAKE MURPHY'S SCALP. Hill and McCarren Giving the Tam- many Leader Much Worry, NEW YORK, Aug: 9.—Charles F. Murphy received a hard blow in his fight to win Brooklyn from the leader- ship of Senator McCarren when Ken- neth Sutherland, leader of Coney Isi- and, announced to-day that he would take the McCarren end of.the fight. Coney Island is part of the Seventh Assembly District, of which William A. Doyle is leader, and Sutherland’'s ac- tion makes it more than probable that Tammany will lose this district, which up to to-day was conceded to it by the MecCarren leaders. What is particularly significant in the change on the part of Buthex}ud Sagamore, | Lamont said : to-day, | to bring ! is the fact that in the' past he has been guided largely in his political actions by “Big Tim” Sullivan. They have been the closest friends personally and in this change Brooklyn politicians see a disposition on the part of the Sulli- vans to oppose the leadership of Murphy. Sutherland occupies a unique position | in the politics of Brooklyn. Disfran- chised by his conviction of the John Y. ! McKane frauds, he has never had his | citizenship restored. Despite the fact | that he has no vote he controls abso- lutely 700 Democratic voters, who will | follow him to any length, even into a | Republican camp. He will take with | him to the McCarren side enough men from other sections of the district to make the outcome of the primaries | doubtrul, and if all the converts that | friends of Senator McCarren are claim- |mg come with him the district will | surely be lost to Tammany at the pri- maries. Sutherland sald to-day that he had left the Tammany end of the fight for the rzason that Brooklyn was not getting proper treatment under the ‘'ammany administration. Senator McCarren’s supporters were claiming to-night that they would make a clean sweep of the county in the August primaries and that the Tammany men would not control a ngle Assembly District. Altogether it looks as if David B. Hill, through his henchman, McCarren, intends to teach Murphy.a lesson and either whip him into the Parker line or have him deposed ag Tammany leader. ) POPULISTS ARE DIVIDED. | Nebraska Leaders Question Wisdom of | Fusion With Democrats. | LINCOLN, Neb., Aug. 9—Fusion with the Democrats on State and pos- | sibly electoral ticket is the /dominant | question before Populist delegates who | are here for to-morrow’s State conven- tion, which will be held at the same hour the Democrats meet. Thus far all overtures for fusion have come from the Democrats, with the Populists bad- ly *@ivided on the wisdom of its adop- tion. Prospective candidates for of- fice on the State ticket naturally lean to fusion, while it is noteworthy that | national leaders in the party, a num- ber of whom live in Nebraska, have advised against it. Secretary Charles de France of Lin- coln, secretary of the Populist Nation- al Committee, said the only basis of fusion would be the support by the Democrats of Watson and Tibbles’ | electors and.an equal division of the State offices. In this declaration De France is upheld by Thomas H. Tib- bles, the Vice Presidential nominee. It is supposed Thomas E. Watson, the Presidential candidate, entertains the same view. | S | MUST REMAIN INACTIVE. Federal Officials Warned Not to Take | Part in Politics. WASHINGTON, Aug. 9.—Heads of | Government departments have let it be known that their officials. are not to take an active part in local or State politics, where their activity might prove compromising in any way to the administration. President Roosevelt | has declined to be drawn into fac- tional troubles in any State and it is not deemed desirable that Federal of- ficials should be active in such con- | tests. Recently it was intimated to H. | Smith Woolley, assayer of the Mint at Boise, Idaho, and to Robert Grim- mon, United States Marshal of the same State, that they would” better not participate in the Republican State convention, as their appear- ance as delegates or as active partici- pants in the proceedings might be misconstrued. ” IR Y B LOEB NAILS CAMPAIGN LIE. | President Did Not Refuse to Receive Union ‘Delegation. WASHINGTON, Aug. 9.—In an of- ficial statement issued at the White House to-day Secretary Loeb made it clear that no letter was sent either by the President or by him or by their authority to the National Assoclation of Stationary Engineers, in session at Richmond, declining to receive the en- gineers as a body, because “it would create capital for ‘the Democratic campaign and particularly where an association was closely allied to la- bor.” Secretary Loeb says that “no state- ments in any way resembling those alleged to have been made were made by either the President or his secre- tary to any one.” | —_—— | GETS PERMISSION TO SUE. Senator Spooner Wins First Point in the Wisconsin Fight. MADISON, Wis.,, Aug. 9.—The Wis- consin Supreme Court to-day issued an order giving the “stalwart” faction of the Republican party of the State authority to bring suit against Secre- tary cf State Houser to restrain him from placing thé nominees of the La Follette faction on the ticket of the regular party under the designation of “Republican” and compelling him to place the “stalwart” nominees on the ballot under the designation of “Re- publican.” The case will come up for argument. on September 6. The La Follette fac- tion will contest the action. L 2L Democratic Bureau for Chicago. CHICAGO, Aug. 9.—While there will be no general Western Democratic headquarters in Chicago, it was said to-day that National Chairman Tag- gart would be here the latter part 'of the week to organize two of the most | important of the campaign bureau's headquarters, both of which are located here. They are to be.the German and the railway bureaus, the special mis- sion of which is to reclaim for the Democrats the gold vote which went to the Republicans four years ago. ———————— There are few vices worse than vi ne- gary virtues. 3 ——— e N FLAG-DRAPED PLATFORM JUDGE ALTON B. PARKER WILL RECEIVE NOTIFICATION OF HIS NOMINATION o —— PRIMARIES N OTHER CITIES, Continued From Page 4, Column 7./ large for the Senator, although 200 is believed to be a fair estimate of his majority in the city when the full vote is. tabulated. This majority was practically won in the First ‘Ward, where opposition was light. The con- test has been attended by much feel- ing and the result is not accepted with serenity by the defeated. The Muen- ter forces think they have been Jurt by the published statements sprung to-day -and which they assert reflect on the personnel of their ranks, while the Dunlap followers say the Muenter victory has been promoted by irreg- ular methods. The result probably means that the familiar -San ‘Joaquin Assemblyman will not appear in the next Legisla- ture, as his entry to the Senatorial fight left the Assemblyship open to other aspirants, the most prominent of whom in the light of the day’s re- sults is City Attorney Robert Beards- | lee. Although no authorized state- ment has appeared it is generally sup- posed that Senator Muenter favors Knight or Oxnard, while Dunlap has never announced himself, although he is not supposed to have any pro- nounced hostility to Bard. RSN CONTEST IN SOLANO RESULTS IN ELECTION OF RUSH OF SUISUN SUISUN, Aug. 9.—In the primary election held throughout Solano County the only contest was between B. F. Rush of Suisun and F. R. Dev- lin of Vallejo for the Republican nom- ination for State Senator. Rush won the day, getting eight delegates out- side of Vallejo, while Devlin won the four delegates in Vallejo. This county is joined to Napa Coun- ty in the Fifth Senatorial District. Senator Corlett of Napa has his coun- | ty behind him, with ten delegates the joint convention to be held Napa August 12. Hence neither the three candidates has a majority the delegates. The outcome of the convention is awaited with interest in political cir- cles. It will require twelve votes to make a nomination. PRI CALAVERAS COUNTY SELECTS DELEGATES TO THE CONVENTIONS ANGELS CAMP, Aug. 9.—As a result of the primary election held through- out Calaveras County to-day by the Republican party, the following dele- gates to the State, Congressional and District conventions were selected: Alex Brown, C. D. Fontana, C. W. Getchell, C. M. Burleson, J. J. Burt, Gillman Chase, Adam Coe and Ira H. Reaves. The delegation favors J. M. Gillette for Congress and C. H. McDenny for | the Assembly. The delegation has not as yet expressed a preference between the opposing candidates for United States Senator. i ST REPUBLICANS SUPPLY THE TROUBLE AT THE PRIMARIES IN FRESNO FRESNO, Aug. 9.—Primaries were held throughout Fresno County to- day. In the Democratic party there were no contests and no issues, so there was but little interest taken. In the Republican party the old fac- tional fight was on in good earnest. Returns received make certain that Drew and Chandler will receive the nominations for Assemblymen. If they are elected they will support Senator Bard for re-election. The county cen- tral committee will remain in control of men friendly to Senator Chester Rowell. S REPUBLICAN CONVENTION OF NEVADA NOMINATES NIXON FOR THE SENATE g RENO, Nev., Aug. 9.—The Republican State Convention concluded its labors at’ Winnemucca yesterday by nominat- ing the following ticket: For United Statés Senator, George S. Nixon of Humboldt County; for member of Con- gress, James A. Yerington of Ormsby County; for Supreme Judge, Frank H. Norcross of Washoe County; for Pres- idential Blectors, James Butler of Nye County, C. A, Ahran of Storey County, W. J. Plumb of Elko County; for re- gents of the State University—long term Oscar J.

Bates was backed by State | Senator Knowland and his friends, while Taylor went to his fight him- | self. The Bates ticket was carried by | o vote of 720 to 382. This means that | District Attorney W. M. Simpson will get the nomination for State Senator to succeed J. R. Knowland as soon as | Mr. Knowland resigns to take the | nomination for Congress. The fight {was 4 spirited one, resulting in the largest number of votes ever polled at a primary elegtion in Alameda with the lone exception of the Metcalf-Hil- born fight for Congress. The Republicans elected delegates to the Congressional convention to be held in Vallejo on August 16 and dele- gates to the State convention. There were no opposition tickets anywhere in the county for these places. J. R. Knowland will take the entire delegation from Alameda County to Vallejo for him for Congress and as there is no other candidate against him his nominatien will be unanimous. There is no contest of any kind in the State delegation, which will prob- ably favog F. M. Smith, head of the Pacific Coast Borax Company and the ‘Key route ferry, for Presidential Elector from the Third Congressional District. No plans, ‘however, have been decided upon. The old English-Laymance wing of the Democratic party has returned to paewer. They put tickets in the fleld in every Assembly District in the county to-day and won five out of the seven districts. The Fitzgerald hench- men won only the Fiftieth and Fifty- second Assembly districts. This will give the English-Laymance faction ccntrol of the coming county conven- tion, but better than that it will give them control of the county committee for the fight two years from now. The veote was very small, in some districts barely registering ter ballots for the party. i There was no fight in the Union Labor party and the faction that is in control of the party machinery now retains its grip. | { | DEMOCRATS FURNISH EXCITEMENT AT THE BERKELEY PRIMARIES BERKELEY, Aug. 9—The Democrats were the only party to make any fight over the primaries in Berkeley. There was only one set of delegates for each of the Republican conventions, so that little interest was shown among the stalwarts. But for the Democrats, some of the Republicans would have forgotten there was a primary. It was the Democratic noise that awakened the Republicans. The regular Democratic ticket, head- ed by Niles B. Searls, Clyde E. Ab- bott and Olin Welburn Jr.,, fought it out with a ticket headed by Dennis Landregan. The former won out, 101 to 31. Landregan tickets hardly ap- peared in East Berkeley and did not score heavily in West Berkelev. By winning out, the regulars keep In check the Laymance-English forces that sought control of the county con- vention and willj nominate the Assem- blyman from the Fifty-second District. PRt Lo e Old-Time Republicans in Line. OAKLAND, Aug. 9.—The Quarter Century Republican Club, which is composed of members af the Repub- lican party who have voted the ticket for not less than twenty-five years, has been reorganized in anticipation of the coming Presidential campaign. The Club was first organized on July 26, 1900. ot Uncontested Tickets. There being no contests in the ranks of the Union Labor party and the So- cialist party, their tickets as hereto- fore published were elected without change. —_—— Army Losses From Illness.
