4 THE EVENING WORLD, THURSDAY, AUGUST 20, 190 MURPHY PLAYS LEAD FIR. ENTOL OF STATE iWould Name Candidate for Governor and Maybe Overthrow Conners, HOLDS SECRET CONFABS triet. Cha score to-night Leaders of Up-State Counties), Call at Tammany to Con- fer with the “Boss.” | Leader Charles F. Murphy has degun playing @ lone hand game of State pol!- tics, apparently independent of the Democratic State organization headed by William J. Conners, of Buffalo, It had deen reported yesterday that { } Mr. Murphy was coming to town trom) ~ ‘ his country place at Good Ground, and | @s early as 11 o'clock local politicians, ig and little, began to gather at Tam- | Gradually thetr number in- | y of them filled all the 1 office, and the rest gat on the marble steps leading to the | ‘ballroom | But there were no signs of Murphy. It is his custom to take his seat at a roll-top desk in the pubile room at the right of the entrance, and there talk openly with callers of all degrees, who take their turn in line. The desk re- | mained closed yesterday. The district | leaders and captains grew impatient, “This waiting and dancing attendance | fs no fun," growled one. | Upstaters in Secret Conference. A guard stood In front of a locked | @oor leading to the Executive Commit- tee room, to the left of the main en- trance. Murphy was within in secret conference with somebody. A dozen men, strangers to the waiting Tam- manyites, were ushered into the private yoom at different times by Daniel F. | Cohalan, Murphy's new legal adviser and right hand man. These visitors were Democratic poll- | ticians and local leaders from up-State | eounties, Their conferences with the leader of Tammany lasted more than | two hours. One of the men was Will-| fam J. Bernler, of Ulster County, who | atarted the riot in the State convention | of last April against Murphy-Connere | gag rule. Bernier had been chosen Btate | committeeman from his district, but | when the roll was made up his name was mot on the list. He made vigorous pro- test in the convention, along the same| lines as that of Senator McCarren, of Brooklyn, but was overruled. In response to an inquiry why he was at Tammany Hall, Mr. Bernter replied: “By invitation." “From whom?" ; “Harmony” Was Promoted. | “Mr. Cohalan asked me whether I would have a talk with Mr. Murphy, and I said I had pO objections.” “And you submitted your case?’ “No submission from me to any- body,” replied the Ulster fighter. “Was any agreement or harmontoug arrangement reached?” “Well, we had a very pleasant talk,” was the cautious response, These conferences with up-State dis- contents indicate an effort on the part of Leader Murphy to smooth out all troubles and to get in personal touch with county leaders, He talked with them about the Governorship and lis- tened to their views. Murphy's desire is to pick the Democratic candidate, win the election and control the State, ‘The Ulster County delegation sald. ‘iIn our region wa hear a guod deal of taik about Chanler.
