Mr. McLaughlln fully reallzes hla power to turn the nomination for Governor either to Mr. Coler through the m^diatlon of Senator Hill, or to Mr. Mackey through the sgency of Norman E. Mack. or. flnally. to Mr. Croker'a candldate, whose Identity is still a myth. Consequently. Mr. McLaughlln slmply receives his guests with a wave of one hand and dlsmisses them wltb a wave of the other. Mr. McLaughlln. too, has nothing to say. The meetlng of the Brooklyn lesder, Mr. Mack and ex-Governor Stone took place yesterday afternoon at the Willoughby-at. salesroom. After a hp.lf hours conference the two guests hastily took thelr departure. When asked in regard to the meetlng both answered: "Noth? ing to say ' Later in the eveninp Mr. McLaughlln was eeen in clnpc conference with James Shevlln. Both were talking earnestly on the steps of the Bcrough Hall. Bach refu?ed, after the meet ing. to say anything in regard to Mr. McLftugh lin's position. THE ARRIVAL OF MURPHY. Fearful that the up-Siate forces had galned some political advantage by the conference of David B. Hill and Hugh McLaughlln on Tues day. ex-Senator Murphy was sent by the Croker phalanx to Brooklyn yesterday to have a confer? ence with Mr. McLaughiin. Senator Murphy went to Brooklyn directly from the Hoffman House. and arrived at 12 o'clock at the Will oughby-et. auction room. Mr. McLaughlln was not In. but ex-Sheriff Frank D. Creamer. after hearing the mission of ex-Senator Murphy. ralled a coach. clrove tn Remsen-st., and re turned with Mr McLaughiin, who had Just fin ished his luncheon. Mr. McLaughiin greeted Mr Murphy cordla'ly, and they retired to the tmall room in the rear of the larger auction room. For forty mlnutes the men were to gether. At 1:10 o>iock they appeared, and after an apparent warm exchange of hand t-haklngs Mr. Murphy left the place and took a coach for Manhattan. As he got lnto the ve hicle a reporter said: "What was the import of your vlsit?" "I called on Mr. McLaughiin to pay him my rrf-pects. We have been frlends for many years." "ls there any change in the situation?" "Not so far as I know." When Mr. McLaughiin was asked if he cared to Fay anything about the conference with ex Senator Murphy he assumed a reflective attl tude. then ?ald: "Nothing whatever." Is there any change ln the situation?" "What situation?" waa his reply. The Governorship situation." "I know nothing about lt," he answered ln a careles<?. far away tone. Ex-Senator Murphy wae at the Hoffman House for an hour or so ln the afternoon, but he refused to talk sbout hla Interview with Mr. McLaughlln or to make any etatement about Controller Coler as a candldate for Governor. He went to Long Branch late ln the afternoon. CROKER NOT WORRYING. When Rtchard Croker waa aeen laat nlght at the Democratic Club he at first decllned alto pether to speak in regard to ex-Senator Mur phy's vlsit to Hugh McLaughiin. "J haven't seen the Senator 6lnce his trip to Brooklyn," said Mr. Croker, refiectively, "eo I don't know, ! really don't know." "The Senator'a vlsit was prompted by Senator Hill's vistt the day before, was lt not?" was asked. "Why. certalnly " "Then you must have had some fear Mr. Hill miKht win Mr. McLaughiin away from Tam? many Hall." Now. I don't know anything about lt. I am r.<->t worryjng about McLaughlln. New-Tork City is gr.ing solid in thls campaign. What? ever thie man Hlli may have done, I am not v.nrrying. ' "Do you still oppoae Mr. Coler for the Gov UTinrshlp?" "T don't want to talk about Coler to-night." Asked if he wouid indorse a bitter tlrade upon Hill and Coler ln a seml-offlcial Tammany Hall puhlication, whlch mentioned among other thinga that "Coler belongs to the reform gang, a man without a party," Mr Croker said: "I dent Indorse any paper. but lt'e pretty straight Engltsh " James K. McGuire. ehairman of the Execu tive Committee of the Democratic State Com miuee. came to the clty yesterday and was at the St. Jamea Building headquarters and waa at hours. He conferred with Xorman E. Mack, Elliot Danforth and othere. Mr McGuire and Mr. Danforth. who are working in the lnterests of Controller C<Mer. said they would not comment upon Mr. Croker's attack upon ex-Senator Hill. They said they did not war.t to increase the irrl tation in the organlzation. Mr. McGuire sald: *I told Mr. Croker at Saratoga that where there w*re aeveral candidates from an organization for a giv*>n offlce and the condltlons were equal lt was wrcng to impose candidates on the or? ganization who were dlstaeteful to lt. I am an organlzation man. I believe in lt. I don't be lieve tn forclng an organization to do what ls dlstaeteful to it, but there are tlmea when lt ia necessary to do lt. I told Mr. Croker that there are occaslons when tsss candidacy of one man dominates the situation. where his cSndidacy ia of far more importan'je to the party and to the organization ltaelf than the gratlfication of the orgaalzation's likes and disllkea. WHAT HE SAID OF COLER. "There have been two occaaiona ln thla State mhere thla situation has prevailed. One waa in the ttrae of THden and the other ln the time of Cleveland I told Mr Croker that it waa my oplnlon that Controller Coler domlnated the situation now as Tilden and Cleveland did then. and it waa necesaary for the party's auccesa both in tbe Nation and the State to nomlnate him." Mr. Danforth was asked, "Will the Democratic Convention nomlnate a machlne candldate for Governor?" "I hope not," answered Mr. Danforth. "If it does there will be two machlne candidates." "Will th* Democratic Convention nomlnate a man wbo did not aupport Bryan four years ago?" Mr. Danforth sald: "No. It waa my lmp.-esatjn that the convention wiil nomlnate a candldate upon whom ail partiea will agree." Mr. Danforth was asked if the Coler men were atanding by Coler. and If the Controller would be ptaced in nomination. "Ths Coler moveaumt." was the repiy, "ls stronger now than lt *ver was. Mr. Ccler will be placed in nomination, and I beUeve that he will be notulnated." ATTITCDE OF CH1CAGO MEN.

"I never waa ln Mr. Freedman's offlce except to se? about my bond." said Mr. Coler, vesterday. "and I never personally owned any of the stock of Mr. Freedman's company." As to the charge of Mr. Croker that the Con? troller got stock of the City Trust Company at par. Mr. Coler said that was untrue. "I paid $200 a share for my stock." Mr. Coler sald.
