Roosevelt Preparing speech.

Oyster Bay, n. Y, Sept. 10
Supreme in the confidence that he is
going to get an opportunity to deliver
it, either from the speakers platform
or from the floor, Theodore Roosevelt
today began work on the speech which
he expects to make the piece de re-
sistance Of the republican state con-
vention at Saratoga next week. There
will be in the document no further
endorsement OF President Taft or the
present administration than has been
contained in the speeches thus far
delivered by the contributing editor.
Ii Roosevelt and his allies have their
way there will be no blanket endorse
mcnt OF the administration, either in
the address Of the temporary chair
man or in any specific resolution.
Roosevelt will take the stand that Taft
has two more years i'll Office and that
this is not the proper time for a broad
sulogy OF his administration. Close
friends of Roosevelt state that later on
he proposed to attack in the open
certain Taft methods and policies, and
for this reason feels the necessity OF
sidestepping ut this time anything
like a blanket endorsement. The
speech which Roosevelt is working on
today will be SO prepared as to be
available for use either in his role as
temporary chairman or in his capacity
rs a d legate If it develops that the
temporary craftsmanship is close,
Roosevelt is expected to withdraw from
the contest and deliver the address, a
typical Rooseveltian attack on the
leaders of the New York republican or
ganization, from the floor Of the con-
scnton.
New Haven, Conn, Sept. 49,
Theodore Roosevelt slipped quietly into
New Haven today for a political con-
ference with President Taft.
The request for the conference came
from the cx-president. The two men
talked politics and reviewed both the
New York state and the general ma
tional situation, but the import OF the
talk could not be learned.
There is the widest speculation here
rs to the possibility OF the conference.
but the generally accepted theory is
that Roosevelt requested the conference
with view to ascertaining more clear
" what his attitude must be toward
the present administration in the speech
which he is planning to deliver at the
republican state convention at Sara.

MIR. ROOSEVELT,s SPEECH.

Reduced to its last analysis, Mr.
Roos vct'S speech at Syracuse n. y,
Saturday, though delivered in the
stronghold Of the opposition, was Il
challenge to opponents OF his political
doctrines to come out in the open AMI
fight If they dared He prophesied
that if they did they would be beaten.
In defending his recent criticisms
OF two decisions OF the u. S. Supreme
Court made in speech in Denver, Mr..
Roosevelt quoted the words Of Mr.. Taft,
written when the latter was II Judge, to
support his contention that the people
have the right to criticise decisions OF
the courts.
Il err, err in company with Abra.
ham Lincoln" was climax that ap-
pearcd to take well with the crowd.
Several slight intersections were made
into the formal speech. Several times
came the shout, ~ challenge my foes
to the issue, Il have not one word tc
retract, ''and they criticise me but they
walk as on eggs when the suggestion is
made that they take the other side Of
nv arguments.

acted in the capacity OF tug boats for
several hours last night in an effort to
distribute anchors and to lay out four
rangers for the night battle practice oil
the fleet, but the task was too great and
it has again been necessary to postpone
the mimic battle.
The maneuvers already had been de-
Iayed three days by storm, which
caused several of the ships to lose their
anchors. Last night bright moon
made conditions i'ical, but it was in'-
possible to place the target.
Regular tugboats were busy early
this morning completing preliminary
arrangements, and it is now stated posi-
lively that the night torpedo practice
will be completed today. The day bat
tlr will begin tomorrow, and will con-
tinuc throughout the week.
The fleet is about one week behind

New York, Sept. 19.-Cliarlcs r.
Hcike, former Secretary and Treasurer
OF the American Sugar Refining Com
pany, was today sentenced to eight
months Imprisonment on BlackwellS
Island and fined 5000 by Federal
Judge Martin. Heike was convicted
in the recent sugar fraud cases. Judge
Martin granted stay pending appeal
and reduced Hekc's bail to $15, 900.
In imposing sentence, Judge Martin
said that he had taken into considera
ton the age of the defendant and the
fact that he had lived y reputable life.
Owing to the enormity Of the offense,
however, and that Hcikc was aware Of
the undcrwcighing Of imports, Judge
Martin said he could not in all con-
science as Il Judge refrain from impos-
ing 4 prison sentence.
The sentence was disappointment
to Heike and his counsel. who believed
that fine only would be imposed.

The President and Congress-.

New Haven, Conn, Sept. 10
President Taft is looking forward to
one OF the hardest legislative fights of
his administration during the coming
short session OF Congress at which he
will seek to force through bill pro-
viding for 100000 appropriation
to start work upon the Panama canal
fertilization.
Aside from the question OF the right
Of the United States to fortify the
zone, there is difference of opinion
as to the ACCESSIBILITY Of this move con-
sidered from the standpoint of the
United States alone.
The opposition in the last Congress
TO iortifying the canal was led by
Champ Clark, who is picked for speak
er 10 the event of democratic House,
and the administration is counting a
fairly united democratic opposition to
the project. 1t will therefore be the plan
oiIthe president to force thefproposition
through the coming short session OF
Congress in order to avoid taking any
chance on leaving the matter TO the
next Congress, the political makeup
OF which is at this time matter oil
yery serious doubt.

Trans-Alpine Flight.

Bricg, Switzerland, Sept. ia
trans-Alpine flight from Bricg to Milan,
the most daring ever undertaken, was
begun here today by Weymann, an
American, and Chavese, a Peruvian.
The contemplated flight is over the
famous Simplon Pass, nearly $500 feet
high From Brieg to Domodossola,
81 miles, the course is over veritable
wilderness OF gorges and craigs, and
the failure OF an aeroplane at any stage
of the journey, would it if feared cause
disaster.
Weymann and Chavese made an
early start, but fierce gale forced them
to descend. Within two hours the
Mind had subsidized and the men i'm
mediately launched their machines
