Planning for q Bolt.
1t is learned that as the result OF con
ferences he'd here the past few days, the
friends OF Judge Prouty, the defeated can
didate for congress In this county, are pre-
pairing to walk out OF the republican counts
convention, to hold another convention and
to send a contesting delegation to the dis.
trict convention. 1t is alleged that the
plan is then to make a play for at least
three out of the hve other counties in the
district and when the district convention
is held to gain control Of the committee
on credentials and seat the contesting del
egation from Polk or give both delegations
an even chance.
The counties relied on to be for Prouty
and against Hull are Story, Marion and
Warren. while Il is conceded that Madison
would be for Hull and probably Dallas
county.
The republican county convention is tc
be held here tomorrow. Hull has 1856 I'm
structed delegates to 100 for Prouty. The
Hull people control the organization and
will be able to control the convention from
the start The only thing for the ProutJ
people to do Is TO make a demand for Z
postponement while charges Of fraud arr
investigated and as this will be refused
they will then walk out of the convention
1t is believed they will not be able TO take
out all OF the instructed delegates.

A Valuable Publication.

Attorney Francis G. Beach, one of the best known members of the New Haven County bar, has just issued through the Dissell Publishing compa- ny, of Hartford, a book of special in- terest to lawyers and of very general interest to all who are associated oD in any way connected with corporations The title of the book is Connecticut Corporation Law" n be treatise is very complete, dealing with the corporation act of 1901 of this state. This act was formerly entitled 'The Joint Stock Act of Connecticut" The compilation of the first five editions was made by At torney John s. Beach. The notes and decisions up to date, together with the forms, are furnished by Francis G. Beach. This is the eighth edition, and the sales promise to exceed all expect ations. The original object of the com pilation was to collate the numerous amendments of the joint stock act scat tered through the annual Public Acts. The revision of the statutes having ac- complished the same results in better and more condensed form, the work was abandoned. It has been resumed in the present work and taking the re- vision for the text of the law, not with the presumption that the notes and forms will be valuable to the profess sion. but in the hope that they may aid the officers of corporations in the dis charge of their duties. The work is plain, pointed and precise. It cannot fail to be of great use and value to all interested in corporations.

FOOTBALL NEWS INTEREST
PR1CTIC AT TALE FIELD YES
 TERDAY.
The University of Syracuse Plays Yale To-day at Yale FIeId-CoIumbia Tt PrIncetOu-Brown at Harvard-Other Games To-day.

For the first time this week the Yale football practice at the university field
 yesterday afternoon was public. It has
 been secret since last Monday. A good
 sized crowd was present. The attend
 ance has not averaged one hundred at
 any practice this week. The work was
 light, consisting of little more than sig
 nal practice for the leading players and
 one short half of ten minutes only be-
 ing played.
 The University of Syracuse players will arrive here at 9:15 o'clock to-day and will go at once to their quarters
 at the New Haven house. They left Syracuse yesterday afternoon and stop ped in Hartford last night.
 Yale has shown great disposition to show signs of nervousness in dis cussing the game with Syracuse to- day. The coachers broke the record for ordering secret practice as early as Oc- tober 20, simply because 1t was feared
 that Syracuse would prove a Tartar. The Yale eleven is in first class trim for
 the Syracusans,n or the result of the game would be very much in doubt. Syracuse has never played here before.
 In the last two days the coaches of
 the Yale squad and Captain Chadwick have made some startling changes in
 the varsity line up. Hogan has been sent back onto the second team. Ham, lin is being tried at guard, while Will helmi is still holding Neal's position at
 the left end of the line, As to wheth- CT or not there is any great importance to be placed on the fact that the coach es are paying special attention to the l work of Kinney, who has had Hogan's place the last two days, is yet to be seen. Trainer Murphy is beginning to watch his men carefully, some of whom, it is rumored, are trained almost up to per- lection, but there is little danger that the veteran will let his men go too far. | Several of the old Yale coachers are
 back here to assist in the training. But terworth and Vance Mccormick were 1 on the field coaching. Goss and Holt did not practice yesterday but will both 1 play to-day.
 The Yale lineup in to-days game will 1 be as follews: ..,..g,. ..... .--...- .. 1 L. E., Wilhelni: L. T., shevlin; L. G.,
