HEARST, CLARK CHAMPION, READY TO ACCEPT PARKER. Booms of Wilson and the Speaker Tangled in the Scrimmage— Claims of the Candidates. BY MARTIN GREEN. (WtaM Conweeyentont of Fhe Bveaing World.) BALTIMORE, June 24.—Definite terms for peace in the war that has been going on over the Temporary Chairmanship of the Democratic National Convention were offered late this afternoon. Judge Alton B. Parker, slated for the place and opposed by William J. Bryan, called on Mr. Bryan and read to him the speech Judge Parker ‘nas prepared. This speech is declared tp be both progressive and aggressive. The Parker forces believed it wouki meet many of Mr. Bryan’s objections. Chairman Mack of the National Committee and Mr. Hall of Nouns member of the committee, accompanied Judge Parker. If, after reading the speech, Mr. Bryan still insists upon hts objections to Mr. Parker, the latter ther will be selected by the National Commit- tee, but will decline to serve. Even before this proposal was made the members of the Democrats National Committee had temporarily abandoned the plan to force the election of Judge Rarker. This course would have caused Bryan to sun for the chairmanship. Committeemen bent on harmony persuaded the National Committeemen to shift their tactics, COMMITTEE WANTS PEACE. A committee consisting of Norman E. Mack of New York and @L, Hall of Nebraska was appointed to confer with Mr. Bryan and Judge Parker and try to straighten out the tangle. It appears to be the senti- , ment of the committeemen that bad politics could be charged against them if they should force a fight on the floor of the convention between the Bryan interests and the Parker interests. Another thing that probably had considerable effect was the announcement of Mr. Bryan, made just before the meeting of the com- mittee, that he would personally take charge of the fight against Judge Parker for Temporary Chairman and would have himself placed in nom- ination by Nebraska, from which State he is a delegate-at-large, The machine crowd, dominated by Taggart of Indiana, Sullivan of Illinois and Murphy of New York, was not sure that Mr. Bryan would not be elected Temporary Chairman over Judge Parker. If Mr. Bryan | could get enough votes to make him Temporary Chairman it was not a far-fetched presumption that he might get enough votes to nominate him for President. At any rate, harmony entered the councils of the party this afternoon, and it is the hope of the leaders that a compromise Chair- man may be agreed upon by Mr. Bryan and Judge Parker. CLARK TANGLED WITH HEARST. The position of Champ Clark is tangled. William Randolph Hearst, Clark’s sponsor, has issued a statement in which he favors Parker for Temporary Chairman, Behind Parker are August Belmont, Thomas F. Ryan, DeLancey Nicoll and William F, Sheehan, representing the Wall i street branch of the democracy. Politicians see in Hearst's advocacy of Parker an alliance between the Clark force and the so-called “Mierests,”” The boom of William J. Gaynor is spreading. Boosters arrived from New York at 2 o'clock this afternoon and paraded through the principal Baltimore streets. Members of the Mayor's administration are pushing his candidacy along, and he is said to have the inside track as a dark horse, Arrangements are under way for presenting the Mayor's name to the convention, Representative John J. Fitzgerald of Brooklyn has been selected for the nominating speech, It is the object of the Gaynor man- agers to pul the Mayor forward as Brooklyn's candidate and not as a New York County nominee allied with Tammany Hall, The Gaynor boom managers want the Mayor to be considered an independent candi- date, and they expect to draw votes from the independent delegates, ane
