Communication from Committee Ap- pointed at Republican Club Banquet.

Communication from Committee Ap- pointed at Repnbiican Club Banquet. The following communication is being sent out by the committee appointed at the banquet given in the hall of the New Haven Young Mems Republican club:
 To the Delegates of the Republican,
 State Convention Throughout the
 State: .lA> ~s <. At d banquet recently given by the friends of Judge Livingston w. Cleave- land to the republican workers of New Haven, at which a majority of the re- publican registrars ofvoters and a large number of the members of the ward committees then in New Haven were present, it was unanimously and enthu- siastically voted to endorse the move ment for the nomination of Judge Liv- ingston W. Cleaveland for governor and to appoint a committee to request the delegates throughout the state to give him their support.
 Judge Cleaveland is a representative of all that is best in political life. His eight years as judge of probate in dis trict with a population of more than 120, 1000 has established his reputation for ability, integrity and absolute fairness. In 1900 he was elected by plurality more than 1,700 greater than that given In his probate district to the most pop ular candidate on the state ticket. We believe that he would poll more votes in New Haven than any other candidate.
 We earnestly your votes and your support in behalf of his nomina- ton for the office of governor of Con- necticut.

 Boston, Sept. 9.--The Herald will say tomorrow that in view of the fact that a challenge for the Americas cup for next year is practically assured and a challenger is to be built by Sir Thomas Lipton on the other side, there is a movement on foot for Boston cup de- fender to be desiged by W.

He has already made the plans of 90-footer to be built for cup de- fence.
 MT. Burgess is at present on Q trip of inspection among the British and Scotch ship yards, and will return to this country about October l.

STONES PLAN OF SETTLEMENT
Philadelphia Report That Morgan Has
 Assented to 1t.

Philadelphia, Sept. 10.-The North American this morning says that J. Pierpont Morgan has assented to a plan proposed by Governor Stone of Penn sylvania for ending the coal miners strike. The plan, according to the North American, was submitted to MT. Morgan yesterday by P. A. B. Widener of this city. The plan in brief, is for the mine workers to return to work without signed agreement; that the operators, by concessions, adjust the differences existing between the men and the companies; that after waiting a reasonable time the operators fail to do this, an arbitrator be appointed, and that if the men deem the decision of the arbitrator as unjust, then the men can again go on strike.
 The paper also says that Governor Stone immediately telegraphed Presi- dent Mitchell for conference, and that the meeting between the governor and the miners chief will take place proba- ply to-day.

His Attitude as Described by a
 Guest.

Cincinnati, Sept. 9.-A guest of Pres ident Roosevelt during portion of his trip through Ohio, when asked to-day if the subject of the settlement of the Pennsylvania coal strike was discussed, said it was. The president said that the printed interview with him on that subject was imaginative. The guest of the president continued that no man deplores the present condition more than the president does, but he does not see clearly how he could take any part in adjusting the difference.
 Any interference on his part, except by request of both parties, would be construed into a threat to use the great power of his office to coerce one side or the other. If that were really so, the action would be interference and not
