NEW HAVEN, Conn.,, Sept. 49,
Not only will President Taft at
tend the meeting Of the Yale cor
poration as he had planned, but he
will hold consultation with Theo.
dore Roosevelt. The rumor that
Roosevelt was to meet the presi-
dent at New Haven has been cur
rent at Beverly, but it was not con-
firmed until Secretary Charles D.
Norton today received word that
Roosevelt had left Oyster Bay to
meet Taft.
1t Is understood that the subject
of the conference will be the New
York political situation. Just what
phase of the affairs is to be taken
up has not been given out, but it is
believed that the president and his
predecessor will talk of the part
Vice-President Sherman has played
in the situation and that there will
be very clear understanding
about Roosevelt's intended attitude
during the coming campaign.
SECRET MEETING.
The conference was requested by
Roosevelt, it is learned. The ar
rangements were made with the
greatest secrecy. Roosevelt left
Oyster Bay at daylight in motor
boat and crossed the sound. He
met Lloyd c. Griscom and they con
tinued the trip in a motor boat
along the Connecticut shore. At a
desolate spot along the shore some
distance from New Haven, Secre-

how. after you had slipped around
in your stockinged feet to do your

down to beard her nibs in her lair
only to find that you wern't equal

Remember how you told her that
you were sorry to be compelled to

her charming companionship. but
that your boss had transferred you

had to go? Yours is the common

In the city of Seattle the board of

Posses seeking the man who at
tackled little Ebby Alice Shepherd,
13, and beat her father, Taylor
Shepherd, and her brother, J. w.
Shepherd, to death. were called in
today when the little girl, fearful
and hysterical, confessed that she
had killed her relatives.
According to the confession, the
little girl sobbed out today, the fan
tastic story she told Saturday of
assault and murder was fabricated
to cover her own terrible deed
when, angered because they had
beaten her, she stole up behind her
father and beat him to death with
an AK, and then fearing that her
brother would discover the deed
and tell of it. she killed him also
The screams of the little girl
brought people to the scene OF the
attack Saturday.
Her father was found lying near
her, and her brother not far away
Her father regained consciousness
and the few words he managed to
speak confirmed the belief that a
man had attacked his daughter and
then had beaten him.
For hours the girl lay uncon
scious, then when she regained heI
senses she tol dof an attack that
had been made on her. When she
repeated her story there were a
number of discrepancies and she
was closely questioned, Under the
cross examination she broke dowr
and told the story of the attack or
her father and brother. She sale
that they had beaten her severely
She is hysterical today and under

BEING MURDERED

1t happened in a shop on Main

trians were passing brisky, the sun
shone brightly, all seemed free from
tragedy. Suddenly, without any pre-
monitory warning, the scream of a
woman came floating through the
doors of the shop and smote the ear
OF the passerby with shivering in
tensity. His heart skipped beat
in surprise and little shivers began
to play tag with his vertebrae, while
he stood rooted to the sidewalk un-
able to move. What dastardly crime
was being committed behind those
darkened windows. a murder, per-
haps. a deed of violence surely.

MAY LOCK OUT
100000 MEN
(By United Press Leased Wire.)

CARDIFF, Wales, Sept. 10
Twelve thousand miners from the
Cambrian colliery trust struck to-
day. The strike temporarily closes
all the mines supplying coal to the
British navy. The strikers in walk
ing out violated the orders of the
leaders of the unions. The fedora
tion of mine owners is considering
locking out 100000 men as result
of the trouble.
If this action is taken by the
mine owners. one of the most seri-
Gus labor disputes of recent years
in England may begin. Inc action
of the men in quitting in spite of
the efforts of the heads of their
organization to keep them at work,
gives the operators chance to
make a winning fight against the
unions, 1t is believed.
