I have determined to say absolutely nothing,” with which Mr, Jerome went pack to his uffice and shut the door, it was learned that the conference with Mr. Hill took place, not in Mr, Jer.me's regular private office, but in a small room off of it, which is the Holv of Hollies of the suite, Only the most confidential things are ever dis- cussed in thls chamber, so it must have been something very important that *fore Steve Darcy, the keeper of the Charles F.. Mu Mr. Hill had to say to Mr. Jerome. Not a soul but Mr. Jerome and Mr. Hill wére present or within earshot during the talk. The much-talked-of Jcroms boom took on concrete form last Monday when David PB. Hill had a conference with Judge Parker at Rosemont. Before thie the cemination of the hustling young Uistrict-Attorney was being urgeJ trom al) quarters, but no great leader nad spenly espoused his cause. S4Y PARKER FAVORS JEROME. It was said after Monday's conference at Esopus that Judge Parker had openly expressed a cholce for Jerome, and that Mr, Hill had finally agreed to offer him the nomination, Whatever took place at that meoting, to-day's visit of Mr. Hill to Jerome is believed to be the sequel to it. Tt ts aow said | that {¢ was agreed to delay the notification to Mr. Jerome of what was going op in his interests until Judge Parker could be in New York. Mr, Jerome, if he decides tc go out for the nomination with Hill's back- ing, will probably see Judge Parker at the Hotel Astor to-morrow. It is believed that this waa one cf the objects of Judge aPrker's visit to this city, and that the call of Mr. Hiil-was part of a regularly arranged programme. Not the least interesting phase of the situation developed by the Hiil- Jerome confernce to-day \s the station in which it leaves Ed- ward M. Grout. Grout hungers and thirsts for the nomination for Gov- ernor as no Democrat has hungered and thirsted for an elective office for years, He hates Jerome because Jerome called him a renegade, a sneak and other choice things during the Ist municipal campaign, Grout’s political sponsor, Patrick H. McCarren, who has pledged Grout the entire Brooklyn delegation at Saratoga next week, also hates Jerome, because in the laet munictpal campaign Jerome held him up as a gambler and a corrupt politielan. WOULD HAVE TO RESIGN. Mr, Jerome nas one more year to serve after Jan. 1 next. nated for Governor Me will resign at once and Gov, Odell will have the selecticn of his successor, Such a condition is not looked upon with great apprekeusion by local bemocrats or by Tammany men, No Republican could | be harder op thew in this office than Jerotne has been, JUDGE PARKER HERE TO PLAN HIS CAMPAIGN. Judge Alton B’ Parker, accompanied by his secretary, Mr. McCausland; Join B MeDonala, the 8udWay contractor; Smith Weed, and Judge Morgan | J. O'Briet arrived in this city to-day fron Esopus on the steam yacht Sapphire. All of the party, with the exception of Judge O'Brien, who for some reason seemed desirous of concealing the fact that he came down fiom Esopus with tho Denncratic candidate, went at once to the Hotel Astor. where within five minutes of their arrival the first of the conferences which Judge Parker came here to presite over was under way. The other parties to this conference were William F. Sheehan and Henry G. Davis, of West Virginia, Judge Parker's running mate on the Democratic teket. Col, John 1, Martin, Sergoant-at-Arms of the Democratic National Committee, vas also et the hotel to meet Judge Parker, but ao soon as the conference began he came downstairs, the cusiness under consideration not belug concerned with his official functions. Mr, Davis and Mr, Shechan left Judge Parker after a conference of two hours and a belf, They jleclined to say anything to reporters. “Any informa. tion you want You ub have to get from Judge Parker/’ said Mr. Sheehan tealied atthe hot If he is nomi- | for an appointment lator in the day. noon, and Mr. Rough Trip in the Storm, Judge Parker and his party had a rough trip from Esopus in the heavy storm of last night and Mnally anchored off Cornwall-on.the-Hudson, It was shortly after 9 o'clock» when ; |the Sapphire came down the rt | River and cast anchor off the foot of West Thirty-ifth street, Immed!- ately @ boat was lowered, containing Ea Judge Parker, Mr. McCausland and Mr, McDonald. It landed at May's Landing. Judge Parker wore a frock coat and a silk hat. Ho looked the per- Sonification of health, strength and | vigor, His cheeks fairly glowed in the fine, bracing alr of the morning. Steve Darcy on the Spat, He had scarsaly put his feet on land free bath at ths foot of West Thirty- fourth street, spled him and made a rsh in his direction with extended hand, “Hooray! Hooray! and Hooray!" roared Steve, and as Judge Parker good naturedly shook his hand, Steve's emotions were stirred to such depths that he could say nothing, al- though In an endeavor to free the sentiments of the moment he in. dulged in some fearful facial contor- tions, The enthuslasm of Mr, Darcy was in- feotious. It spread to Policeman Me- Fall, who so far forgot the dignity of his uniform and the non-partisan cnar- employment as to say a few himself and to shake the hand of Judge Parker with vigor al- moat equal to that of Darcy, Dockmaster Peter Huyer got up just in time to shake hands with Judge Parker as he got in his carriage. “Judge,” said Huyer, through the win- dow of the carriage, “you want to get all those votes up the State. We'll get the votes down here and don't you wor- ry about them. Won't we, Mr, McDon- alar’ “You bet we will.” sald Mr, McDon- | ald, fervently. Gave Three Ro Chi By this time some fifty or more work- ingmen had gathered about the carriage. ‘eGive him three cheers, boys!” yelled Huyer, waving his hat in the alr, and the gang gave three such rousing cheers that Judge Parker flushed with pleasure and acknowledged them with a bow, After the perty had driven away, Judge O'Brien cafe ashore with a young man. who declined to give his name, Judge O'Brien would not even a to get away and escape observation It was just 945 o'clock when Judge Parker arrived at the Hotel Astor, Col. Martin, who had been waiting for hours, was the only person to meet him at that \time, but the Judge had scarcely got to his room before Mr. Dvvis and Mr, Sheehan arrived, They were allowed to go right up to the big sult engaged for the ndidate, without sending their ards, Judge Parker greeted them cor- dially, and immediately doors were closed and the first conference began. Teo Confer with Lead Many conjectures have been advanced as to the exact reasons for the candi- date coming here at this time, Of- ficially it is stated that he ts here to confer with the leaders and to give the the benefit of his political skill and knowledge in arranging the details of the hustling campaign which Is sooo to be begun in every section of the | country. Esopus Is too far for the lead- | ers to travel every time anything comes up that needs the judgment of the can- diate, It is said that Judge Parker Will tnd sent up his Card with'a request) come here trom time to time, a8 (be ¢ admit his identity, and seemed anxious | One was made for 3 o'clock this after- Belmont went away happy. exigencies of\ the campaign require, to consult and to advise, Rumors of friction at National Head- quarters between Chairman Taggart and August Belmont have led to a story that Judge Parker is here to set- tle such dangerous differences once and for all. Another version of the visit is that Judge Parker means to have @ deciding hand {n the naming of the nominee for Governor on the Demo= cratic ticket at Saratoga next week. Murvhy a Probable Caller. From now until to-morrow night Judge Parker will hold a continuous series of conferences, seeing and talk- ing to every leader of National, State | Hase! or local importance, going over their | work with them and making and re ceiving suggestions, o-da: it is “believed that Homme ie to-day . ny will vd Were banaue Pate tt gage ba also expected, Ohalrmalt Hot see him because ne rg a Indianapolis, before going Mr. Tag id that he and fi 7 er ha a & thorough understanding and ferericen at this time, 7 {Uther con- All efforts to stat ai’ eine " i he Secretary to tel ‘the i later heeeas at he was going to be so busy all d: ety sheen that brought iil io the at he would not have th take the news; confideac on any matters At at mn?
