Jones Meet C'roker. Chicago, III,. September 24. Senator James K. Jones, of Arkansas, chairman of the National Democratic committee, went north tonight on a fishing excur sion. Richard Oroker left for JNew oi k this afternoon. The meeting between these two gentle men here was not altogether satisfactory, as Senator Jones insisted upon silver being made the predominant feature of every State campaign between this time and the presidential election of 1900. Mr. Croker did not agree with him, and, although they did not quarrel, it would be far from the truth to say that they nr- rived at an understanding. Senator Jones will noi go near New York during the present State uud mayoralty cam paign.
