VIEWS SPORTING PAGI
SCHOOLS OF
WEAkFISH IN
RARITAN BAY

There is good fishing from Sc
warren down to East Point and about
Keyport at the present time. A
school of weakfsh that has been
feeding at Atlantic Highlands. is
around East Point and making mat
tiers interesting for anglers in that
section. A Newark fishing club
made the discovery on Tuesday and
landed 1871. Besides the weakfsh
haul, fifteen Cylinders, a fuke, six
turtles, a shark and ten tadfish were
caught.
The best way to get among the big
schools of 'weakhsh now in Raritan
Bay, is by m%otorboat from Morgan's
Station. A letter addressed to any
of the following captains at the
South Amboy post Office will reach
them: Captains Jack Willett, Trave
Bloodgood, Walter Ryerson, Ed
ward ~Bloodgood and Harry Blood
good. Willett and Ryerson have tel
ephones and the Bloodgoods receive
messages or the telephone Of LIE
Olde. Spye Inn, Mrgan's Station.
1t will be interesting to watch the
outcome of the trial of those four
supposed sports who were arrested
Tuesday and charged with attempt
ing to kill deer down near Mays
Landing. Two weer guides and the
other two Atlantic City business
men,. Bail was placed at 5000 each
for a hearing.

TO NAME WILSON.
Princeton President Leads For Gov
ernor at Trenton.

Princeton President Leads For Gov
ernor at Trenton.
Trenton, N. j., Sept. 15.-TAe city is
overcrowded by politicians who came
to attend the Democratic state conven-
ton. DR.. Woodrow Wilson will be
named for governor.
A number of the delegates entered
into an informal agreement that all
the anti Wilson forces should unite
upon the candidate receiving the high
est vote on the first ballot at the state
convention. 1t had then become ap-
parent that no othep means could pre-
vent the nomination of DR.. Wilson.
. The conferees figured that by COM
bining they could control 800 of the
1896 votes in the convention and were
pleased. Senator SilZer proved the
stumbling block to the contamination
of the combination. He wanted his
delegates to stand by him to the end
and told them so.
Former Senator Smith claimed that
DIR. Wilson woulduhave more than 900
votes ION the first ballot, though this
was vigorously disputed by the oppo-
sition. 2'1@
All indications are that the vote on
the first ballot might stand as follows:
Wilson, 725; Katzenbach, 276; Silzer.
241; Wittpenn, 81; William e. Harri-
gan. 10.
The ten votes supposed to be con-
trelled by Mr.. Harrigan are counted
upon by Katzenbach, but are likely to
go anywhere in the convention.

Lakeville, Conn, Sept. 15:-The
Yale football practice commences
here today, and the candidates for

that so few OF the old men will be

causes for commencing the work SO
much earlier this year than has been
the custom. Ted Coy, captain of
last years cam and coach for this
year, is expected to arrive at Lake.
charge from the first. He will be
assisted by Harry G. Holt, a substi-
tute halfback on last falls team.
Harry Vaughan, end, will be un-
able to play this year because of his
health. With Fitzpatrick, the other
end and DAILY, he would have been
part of the mainstay of the team.
DAILY will probably shift to fullback
this yea allowing Savage and Mos
singer to go to the halfback posi-
lions.
Howe Merritt and Corey will make
strong quarterbacks this year, now
that under the new rules this posi-
ton has been practically abolished,
In the line Parker and Childs are ex-
pected to replare Goebel and Lilley.
Loree will be at centre. Bronson
will probably be one of the guards.
There will be a fight for the other
tackle position, though Baker may
round into shape for it. The ends
will be Fitzpatrick and Haines, with
Reilly for first substitute. Philbin,
whose brother was a star last year,
and Walter Camp, Jr., will be first
substitute backs.

JAKE STAHL- PICKS
BOSTON FOR 1911

New York, Sept. 15:-Jake StahI,
the Reds Sox first baseman, believes
the Speed Boys will cop the pennant
next season. He spoke on baseball
in general and the Red Sox's chances
for 1911 at an informal luncheon at
the City Club. Boston.
81 firmly believe We will land the
pennant in 1911" said Stahl. THE
other players feel the same. In
fact, we all felt that We would win
this year, but the consistent work
of the Athletics has been marvel
lous. Their team has been intact all
season, and when you notice that
their four pitchers are among the
eight leading pitchers in the Amer
lean League, you can understand
how great has been their luck"
