National Committee To day Be gins Settlement of Contests That Have Split
 the Party.
229 SEATS ARE INVOLVE
Antis Pool Their Intcrcsts--Negro Voters Disqualified from Partici- pating in Conventions, Is
 Their Plea.

Chicago, June 4The full republican national committee will meet tomorrow at II o'clock and begin the hearings on which will determined the contests, involving 229 seats in the convention, The number of contests filed Is so large that the settlement easily has become the most important of the pre-conven- ton proceedings. The nomination of the republican candidate for the pres idoney hinges absolutely upon the de- cisiOn of the members of the national committee and the subsequent approval of that decision by the credentlal com mttee of the convention. Half of the Taft would result ln his winning on the first ballot, while failure to capture this number unquestIonably would put the nomination in doubt.
 Realizing the necessity of keeping a majority of the contested delegates out of the Taft column, the representatives of other candidates have pooled issues in most of the cases, and tho proceed ings have pooled issues In most of the cases, and the proceedings therefore, largely will be resolved into Taft and anti-Taft controversy. So far as the south Is concerned, and most of the contests are In states from south of the Mason and Dixon line, the inter- csts of the allies are being looked after by Major r. C. Bryan of Washington, D. C. He arrived in Chicago today and announced that he would base his ar- ruments chiefly on the contention that fin most of the southern state, the Taft forces had disqualified the negro vot- CTS from participating in the state ant district conventions, and that the allie, delegates had been selection at conven' tions from which no class or race hat been barred
 Thirty minutes for each side will bC allowed in state contests. involvinl the seating of four delegates at larg, and their alternates in each case There are eleven such contests. thf states being Alabama, Florida, Georg ia. Louisiana, Mississippi, North Caro- lima. Oklahoma, South Carolina, Ten, nessee. Texas and Virginia. The re, malning delegates in contest are fron scattering districts in the states namet and Arkansas, Kentucky Missouri Ohio. Alaska. Arizona and Pennsyl yania. Fifteen minutes on each sid' are to be allowed In the argumen of each of the district contests.
 IL is not likely that the committe will be able to dispose of more thai the Alabama contests tomorrow These are regarded as the pivota cases in the entire controversy. an, an exhibition of bitterness is an ticipated by the committee over thei settlement.
 There are two factions in Repuh lcan politics at the present time an both have sent complete sets of dele gates involving twenty-two seats | the convention, One set of delegate are instructed for Taft and the othe is not instructed at all

MAYOR TO APPOINT
Vacancies on Three City Com. missions to Be Filled
 This Month.
BOARD INCLUDED
No Strife for Places, as It's Known That Mayor Will Do as He
 Chooses.

With three appointments to be made most important offices under the city government, Mayor James B. Martin Is now experiencing novel situation Tho novelty comes in the fact that while heretofore when any appointments were pending the mayor whoever he may nave been was beset on all sides with lmportunitles tn name this or that one. but in the present case the mayor, according to his own statement. has not been approached by anyone in favor of any candidate for any of the three of- fees to become vacant on the first of July. This tho mayor laconically ex- plained by the statement that "by this time it is known that I will name who I think best and that any and all chs treaties to do otherwise are simply a waste of time and breath" In view of the siege on the mayor when he was about to take office and his final de- cisions on his appointments at that | time. his statement seems to have a. basis, for he did as he thought best at that time and has since continued to | do so
 The three appointments to he made this month under the charter provls- | ions are a member of the permanent paving commission to succeed James C. Kerrigan, whose term runs out this year; one to the commission on public memorials to succeed Burton Mansfield, and one to the board of examiners of engineers to succeed Max Jordan. The permanent paving commission Is tho important office to bo filled This board annually spends thousands of dollars of the taxpayers money In street lm- provements and this year has over S10ooo0 to lay out The members of the board other than MT. Kerrigan are Max Adler, president, Governor Rollin & Woodruff, Ellzur Fl Sperry and
 Samuel York
 Under the charter tho commission cannot have more than three members of any one party in it's make mp. MT

 AT GALES FERRY Yale Crews Get on the Water for Hours Work at Sunset
 After Rough Water
 Claims Down.
0ARSMEN PLAY FIREMEM
Professors Durfcc and Farrar Arrive With Exam Papers--Elmund F. Livingston Captain of
 Freshman Crew.
,spccial to the Jonrnnl-courier.,

Gales Ferry, June 4 There was lit- tie doing in the way of rowing practice all day until evening Tho southwest wind which made things interesting Wednesday, kept up and increased so that It was unwise to send shell out until quite late in the evening. It was o'clock before any of the boats were ordered out and even then there was a nasty chop on the river, making things interesting for all hands. John Kennedy was able to keep the shells out. how ever, until nearly seven o'clock, but when the boys got out on the float they had some fun emptying the water, all shells being more than half filled. The crews were not changed around at all today, holding exactly the same posi- tions as when they arrived at Gales Ferry. Changes. if any are to be made are still in the future and are not like ly to be made unless in event of sick ness of some member of the crew. The men arc all well fitted to their places and the shells trim well.
 Tonight the varsity eight used thc 1907 shell, as changes in the rigging ot the new Ward eight were not quite completed. II takes lite time, as Johr Kennedy said quietly tonight, to get new boat fitted just to the best advan | tage for the crew. The new shell Is beauty. but somehow or other the sen 1 timent prevails that the old 1906 Dav, shell Is the fastest one in the boat l house.
 The new Ward shell Is fitted with al improved brass skeg, which takes th place of the older cedar skeg. The bras gives less surface for friction and | steadier than the old style, although tn brass only goes about foot from th sternpost, while the older form run along the keel for about four feet
 If thore was no rowing until even ing Thursday there was no lack of ex ci.ement-which always happens whe | Yale gets on the river. At o'clock | the afternoon flames were seen break ing out from a house across the rive from the penthouse and every membe of the rowing squad, Coach Kennedy tho chefs staff and all around quarter made for the scene of action. Tn launch was requisltioned. and ever rowboat that could be borrowed. hire pr stolen carried the amateur fire fight CTS over the river

Company on Advance Duty Fires, But Without Ammunition-Fun
 on the Green.

Company D. the New Haven Blues on advance guard duty on the Green last night mot the enemy but on account of the lack of ammunition they did not become theirs The enemy showed up in the form of about a score or more of Yale students who spied the men in Khaki tramping about and acting "queerly' on the Green and started the various cries known to the student world and terminating invariably In the yell of fire Interspersed with the cries which were taken up from win dow to window until they could be heard across the Green and down in the center of the city and caused many people to wonder what the trouble up the college way could be was the ring ing of eundry alarm clocks which were set off for the purpose of adding to the general commotion The Blues lined I'D across the street from the dormi- tory and received the order to take aim and then to fire but when they tried to obey they remembered that they had left all the ammunition in the store house 50 the students escaped scot free.
 The Blues were out on advance guard duty getting used to the movements in anticipation of tho coming encampment | with the regular army troops next month which will he held at Water | ia n l long evening of work on tho Green and

Board of Finance Assures Re- ceipt of Second Increase Beginning With Fall
 Term.
FOOD FOR THE PRISONERS
Action Probable Soon on Giving Nour. ishment to City Lockup's Unfortunate In-
 mates.

The board of finance at It's session last night committed itself to the ap- prpriation of the $3,000 which is still necessary to assure to the school teachers the addition of $50 which the board of education voted last year for the maximum grade salaries. The board of education asked last fall that a sum of $5,94S be appropriated to make up the amount needed for the fall term which would of course be needed before the 1909 appropriations became effective The board of fin- ancc at that time decided that the board of education might save $S,000 for tho year from the salary account through the use of substitutes instead of the S6,000 which had been the estimate of the board of education so that the amount asked for was cut down this s2,000.
 Last week Attorney James F. Whee- Ter, representing the board of cduca- tion, appeared to ask for tho assur- ance that the S2,000 would be appro- priated On account of the mayors absence he postponed the matter un- til last night. At tho meeting he ap- peared and stated that the board oc education would have to have tho money to pay the salaries, He showed that the saving effected had been about $6,000 which was the average for years past. He added that the entire $2,00O might not be needed, but that the board would not feel that 1t could go ahead and appoint the teachers this month at the increased salaries unless 1t received the assur- ance that tho money would be fortn- coming.
 The board voted the necessary as- surance.
 President James R. Maxwell of the police board, appeared for it in be- half of the transfer of s25O from tho
 heating account 10 the account for the repairing of buildings. This was
 done.
 An informal discussion was held on : a matter which also came up at the meeting of the police board. Tuesday night. This was the proposition which will almost certainly be car. : ried into effect soon of supplying , food of some kind to persons confined , in the lookup at the central police sta. ton.

EXCLUDE PUBLIC FROM THE CAMPUS During Commencement Cele- bration Gates Will Be
 Guarded by Stu
 dents.
TO ENCLOSE EVERYTHING
Fences to Bc Built Where There Arc No Regular Rates, and Free
 Patrol Will Be In- ! side.

For the first time in the history of Yale this commencement the public will be kept off the campus. This holds especially for Tuesday night the night of the reunions, but will probably also be put in effect for class day and for the morning of commencement day,
 This was decided upon at the request of some of the classes who are to hold reunions this June, and who did not think the large crowds added to the enjoyment of the returning alumni. In the past the trouble has not been with the public in general but with q few persons. many of them boys. who com meuce to throw things and iecr when the graduates get livcly, These peo- pie who arc not in harmony with the occasion spoil it for the graduates and for the many ladies wnn visit the cam pus commencement eve.
 It is not the desire to keep any of the friends of the graduates and students off At the gates of the campus where there are no swinging doors fences will be put up, and somc of them will be entirely closed. The other gates will be guarded by students who will not allow anyone to pass, except those in- tereeted in the occasion.
 Each class having a reunion will be accompanied by a band and the gally costumed graduates headed by tho band will march in through the Ives Cheney Memorial gateway between Os. born and Welch hall. The exit iron the campus will be at the Whitman Memorial gateway between the Yale school of fne arts and the Chittcnder library. Practically all the other cn' frances will be closed. Besides tho guards at the gate there will be sort o free patrol which will eject younf boys from the campus wherever they are found. sub freshmen taking th' examinations will' probably be giver some sort of tag which will ldentif! them from the other boys.
 The action this year is in tho nature of an experiment and there are stronI opinions on both sides as to whethe it will be a success or failure, Thor are a great many who claim that th' much talked of democracy of Yal which allows the trampling down of al the grass which grows within 3o fee of Connecticut hall, demands that tn commencement festivities should h open to the general enjoyment Other claim that commencement evc is prim
 arIly a gra luate celebration and on which comes not oftcner than once f
 three years. For thls reason the cam rus should be given over to the grad
 uates and their friends for tho cele bration

LITTLE HOPE FOR MARKET
City Money Too Scarce for Any Such
 Project,

That the proposed new market which IL has been suggested that the city might establish or rather which if was suggested Wednesday to the city to es- tahlish on the property at the corner of George street and Congress avenue, which was recently purchased for the sum of $265,oo0, Is not likely to get much beyond the picture In the smoke stage is the idea expressed yesterday by Mayor Martin when asked about the matter. He alluded to the fact that the city could scarcely pay out money on any such proposition at the present time on account of the big demand up- on the public treasury and the close trimming which it makes necessary to provide for all the big things that are really necessary and would have to come before such q project
