IC. Q. P. LEADERS
 SEEK HARMONY
Effort Made to Flatten Out All DiSSenSiOn at TOday'S Com
 mittee Meeting
KENEALY TO STAY AT HELM
Some Talk of Dr. George H. Knight. of LakevilIe, as Candidate for
 Governor.

New Haven. Jan. 19-The Republf- can state committee will meet at the Union league in this city this after noon and the sole efforts of the. com mitteemen and of those who manipu- late the wires behind the curtain will be to flatten out all possible dissen- sion in the state organization. Prac- tically the entire attention of the G. O. P. leaders is now centered upon impressing the beauty and value of harmony upon every member of the working forces of the Rpublican par ty. The lesson of 1910 has been taken to heart. The rather riotous Repub- ncan state convention of that year, followed by the bitterness growing out of the Lake-Goodwin fight and the AIcLean-Bulkeley struggle, result ed, so the leaders say, in the defea of Goodwin. They are endeaVoring this early in the campaign, to head off any possible dissension this year. and they hope to be successful.
 Chairman Michael Kenealy, of Stamford. though he wants to retire, today's meeting. Kenealy wants to get out, and has said so, but the lead CTS have decided that his retirement just at this time might precipitate a chinery. and accordingly the Stamford lawyer will stay.
 Just how the Republican leaders hope to mold harmony out of the
 
 apparent to those who are watching the situation Lleutenant-GoFern Dennis A. Blakeslee wants the gov- ernorship. and he has lined up on his governor-makers. It is said that at a recent meeting of the Blakeslee the railroad station in New York, there was present such a distinguish ed Republican general as J. Henry Roraback. His appearance might might have been the presence. upon the same occasion of one of the biz lawyers for the New Haven road. You can't convince Blakeslee's friends that such things are accidents.
 On the other hand it is almost cer- tain that Blakeslee will never get the nomination without fight. Various candidates have been trotted out in ley and Stiles JudSon reappear every now and then in print. Yesterday the name of DeVer Warner of Bridgeport was announced as the choice of John Kings friends in Fairfield county.
 It may be that the Republicans in their. quest for harmony may be call candidate for governor but the lieu tenant governor and his friends will ight any brand of harmony which doesn't carry Blakeslee melody in it. The one man in the state who could put up a powerful fighting ma chine any time he wanted is pr. Geo: T Knight of Lakeville. chairman of the state tuberculosis commission Dr. Knights health has not been of the very best and the struggle of a gub- ernatorial campaign might not ap- peal to him but his friends have been urging him to allow the use of his name.
 At today's meeting of the commit tee a date will be chosen for the Re publican state convention to elect delegates to the Republican national convention at Chicago on June s2o-
 After the meeting most of the com mitteemen will attend the dinner Of tho chamber of commerce.

Cigar Strike At
 Cunningham Shop

New Haven. Jan. 1s-There is now 3 deadlock between the Cigarmakers' union and Thomas Cunningham & Co. of 25T Franklin street, where em- ployes quit work because, they a.lIege. he conditions of the building were such that weather leaked in on all oc- casions. The union has withdrawn he label from the Cunningham fac tory and Thomas Cunningham has re- used to treat with a committee from the union on the ground that if the dnion has taken the matter up the union must deal with the Manufactur- CTS association and not with him. The union men said last night that they are perfectly willing to take the matter up with the Manufacturers associa tion, but they said they doubt ed if that association would care to bcak up the Cunningham factory un- der circumstances such as are claim. ed to exist there.
 MT. Cunningham also said that it would be impossible to make repairs on the building until warmer wealth CT.
 There are fourteen men out. and the cigarmakers of the city have vot- ed to contribute sufficent to pay each a weekly stipend.

More Land For
 Yale Stadium

Yale university further increased it's property holdings in the vicinity of Yale field. yesterday, when it pur- chased 45O feet of land fronting on Derby avenue and directly opposite the new Eli skating rink. The prop erty is 200 feet deep and extends along West river, northwest of the Derby avenue bridge. As a result of the purchase the university owns all the land opposite the field, from the western boundary of the football arena down to the West river, with the exception of a few small lots still held by their owners and occupied by dwelling houses.
 The acquisition of the new terri tory is in line with the university S policy to possess all the land opposite Yale field. A vast stadium has for some time been contem plated by the Yale athletic authoritieS and the most satisfactory site, thus far sug- gested, has been this extensive area which lies across from the present athletic grounds.
 Walter Camp, Sr., the Yale athletic adviser. in referring to the latest pur- chase near the field, said last evening: The property has been bought with the site of the Yale stadium, which will probably be erected, on and near there some time in the future. We have already purchased conSidera bl land further up the avenue. The stad- iun, it is believed, will be built on this site

'sEvery Meal Smiles at Me Now Since I've Been Taking Stuart's Dys-

FINLANDER WAS
ON TRIAL TODAY
Henry Reter Was Charged by julius
Funk With Making Way
With Chan-e.

Henry Reiter, Finlander employed
by the Water Power people, was tried
in the superior court today on an in
formation filed against him by julius
Funk, of the firm of L. Funk and Son,
who claimed that Reiter, after having
been given change for a $40 bill by
mistake, had made way with the pro-
ceeds, which did not belong to him.
Funk, when on the witness stand,
said Reiter bought small bill of
goods Of thirteenyear-old clerk
named Ralph O'Blenness. and that the
clerk mistook a 500 bill for a So bill,
and gave it to the Finlandee.
Funk made number of statements.
on the stand, relying on what young
O'blenness had told him, and connect
ing Reiter with the loss of the $40 on
account of his having been the only
party who received any change just
before Funk had missed the bill. Funk
had number of witnesses, while Reit.
er was also there with number of his
countrymen, portion of whom were
with him at the time he was in the
store. Apparently, the statements
made by Funk did not impress the Fin
.landers as being the facts in the case,
as they saw them.
