Richard Croker walked into the Hoffman House yesterday soon after his return from He talked with sy number of party but there was no exultation in his talk over the -defeat of David B. Hill and Controller Coler ia the State Con vention.

Mr." Croker did not want to talk much about the Bute ticket Senator James K. Jones, Chairman of the Democratic National Committee, came walking through the corridor. He touched Mr. Croker on the shoulder and said: I sent you a telegram of congratulation. Mr.

Croker. Did you get ltT? Tea. I got It" said the Tammany leader. I would like to talk with you for few minutes. I have to telephone a friend, and will meet you your room to a short 7.

Mr. Cockran came down and Mr. Croker went They did not meet Mr. Cockran was very reticent about his political work In this campaign- He would not say where or when he would make his speeches, but said, he would begin st once. It was said at headquarters yesterday that Mr.

Cockran will be sent to large meetings in the State. After talking with Senator Jones for ten minutes Mr. Croker came back to the hotel lobby. He said: "The convention at Saratoga was the most enthusiastic I have attended In thirty years. We are going to elect Bryan; and we ore going to elect the whole State ticket this year.

The Gold Democrats have- come back to us, and the Independent vote win dc cast in our iavor." Will you make your headquarters the Hoffman House was asked. I will be at the Hoffman House two or three days each week and I shall be- at Tammany Hall during the afternoons." It was announced yesterday that the Democratic National Headquarters would continue to be in the Hoffman House. A meeting of Mr. Bryan Eastern campaign managers will be held to-day. There was a rumor about during the evening that Mr.

Coler had been promised the Secretaryship of the Treasury by Mr. Bryan in the event of the tatter's election. Sena tor Jones and ex-Go v. Stone denied it Senator Jones raid that Mr. Bryan would not make promises of such a nature.

CONTROLLER COLER'S OFFER. He Will Make Speeches for Stanchfield To Thank Delegates Who Voted for Him. Controller Coler called at the Democratic State Headquarters yesterday and had a long talk with Secretary John A. Mason. He proffered his services, and preliminary arrangements were made for the Controller to go through the State and make speeches for Stanchfield.

Controller-Coler said: I made a race for the nomination and I was beaten, but I am a Democrat, and will always be a Democrat I will certainly be more than willing to do anything and everything in my power to Insure the elec tion oi tne Democratic ticget." The names of the 105 delegates who voteA for Controller Coler's nomination were given to him. and he said before leaving State headquarters that he would write a nersonal letter of thanks -to each man who voted for him. To-day Controller Coler will call on ex-Gov. Stone at the Democratic National headquarters and make a prof er of his services. EX-GOV.

STONE'S VIEW. Says One Man Domination Ruled Re- publicans While Spirited Contests Marked the Democratic Ex-Gov. William J. Stone of Missouri was the principal speaker at the noon-day' meeting yesterday of the Commercial Travelers' and Hotel Men's Anti-Trust at 608. Broadway.

The speaker began his address by stat ing that he believed in the commercial supremacy of the United States. It is the duty of this country," he continued, to build the Nicaragua Canal. We should build It own It and control It and thus connect he Occident and the Orient We should also improve our Diplomatic and Consular Service, and this country should be represented In Central and South America, Mexico, Europe. and Asia by trained commercial men Instead of political hacks." The speaker then passed to the consideration of the Democratic State ticket Nothing had ever been said by any member of the National Committee calculated or intended to influence the action ot the Saratoga Convention. He believed a good ticket had been nominated there.

I do not hesitate to say." continued the speaker. that the gentlemen nominated bv the Democratic Convention at Saratoga are worthy of the confidence and support of the people or tne state. i was ratner pleased to note the difference between the Republican and the Democratic conventions hi this State. There was no contest in the Republican convention; it was absolutely dominated by one man. His word was the law of the convention.

His dictation was accepted without hesitation. "It was a strange spectacle to me to see one man the absolute lord and master of a great convention, all others accepting his edicts with uncomplaining obedience, as if he -spoke by some divine authority. On the other hand, in the Democratic convention we had an old-fashioned fight with plenty of hot blood. The ticket nominated was not ready made from the start but was made at the end of a memorable contest I like that way better than the other, for It ahows more of individual independence and self-assertiveness, and shows that no one man absolutely dominates the Democratic Party of this great Commonwealth. i hear vague rumors floating about here and there of disloyalty, of a covert purpose on the part of this or that leader to shirk his duty.

I do not believe them. I am disposed to treat with Incredulity every dieauieting story affecting the Integrity and loyalty of our party leaders." Ex-Gov. 8tone was followed on the platform by Franklin Qulnby. who spoke on the question of imperialism. FUSION IN COLORADO.

Senator Will iam T. Mackey, who was placed Id nomination for Lieutenant 'Governor by the Demo cratic Convention yesterday, returned from Saratoga to-night and was given a generous reception by members ot his party and a number of Republicans. Mr. Mackey was escorted to the Genesee by an Mm-promptu procession. Several speeches were made.

Mr. Mackey said In part: "I am indeed proud of the manner In Which Erie Count- sunnorted ma. not only In the preliminary campaign, but in the past as well We did not achieve the height of our ambition because the wisdom of the convention beuevod that the best tning tor the. party in this State waa to nominate John B.
