ROOSEVELT AND
PRESIDENT IN
A CONFERENCE
Much Secrecy in The Meet
ing Held at New Haven
Today.
CROSSED SOUND IN BOAT
Former President Was Met
by Taft Automobile and
Hurried to House.
CROSSED SOUND IN BOAT
HAD LUNCHEON TOGETHER
Meeting Was at Request OF
Roosevelt Politics the
Subject OF Discussion.
Special by United Press Wire.


New Haven, Conn, Sept. 19:-
Colonel Roosevelt slipped quietly
into New Haven today for confer
ence with President Taft. The re-
quest for the conference came from
the former President. The two men
talked politics, reviewing both the
New York state and national situa-
ton.
After having observed the utmost
secrecy, Colonel Roosevelt crossed
Long Island sound this morning from
Oyster Bay in a motorboat, proceed
ing to Black Rock, where he was
picked up by the Taft automobile
and taken to New Haven. At the
residence of Henry C. White he
lunched with the President, Lloyd G.
Griscom, Otto c. Barnard and Sec
retary Norton.
There was almost comic opera
plot in the secrecy observed. Secre-
tary Norton admitted this afternoon
that the arrangement had been made
through him after the request from
the colonel had come from Griscom.
There is the widest speculation here
today as to the possibility OF the
conference, but the generally accept
ed theory is that the colonel request
ed the conference with view Of as
certaining what his attitude must be
toward the administration in the
speech which he is planning to de-
liver at the New York state conven-
tion next week.

board have differed with those of the

Contrary to expectations, Adam
Eckert, Independent candidate for
mayor, did not appear at the annual
clambake of the Exempt Firemen' s

day afternoon. 1t was generally be-
Heved that Mr. Eckert being a

present, however, and little was said
about his candidacy. Mr.. Eckert
said this morning that he would

considerable comment but as yet

organization candidate, has not
said anything relative to his oppon-
ent. In several Of the wards Eckert
is said to have a few supporters, but
the democratic leaders declare that
they are not In the least alarmed. In
general the action of Mr.. Eckert is
looked upon in jocular light and
several prominent politicians de-
clared this morning that they be-
lieved that he would get "cold feet"
and drop out of the race before cleo

the fight to the end and it is be-
lieved some interesting campaign
