FAMOUS NEWARK ORGANIZATION TO
 VISIT THIS CITY

John H. Spittler of the Home Brew ing Co.,, has received the following letter from F. M. Barnet of Newark, N. J., relative to the contemplated wis it of the famous Original Third Ward Guards of that city, to Bridgeport, Oct. 31.
 The committee representing the Original Third Ward Guards of New ark, N. J., to whom you extend such kind, free and unstinted courtesy dur ing visit to your city, have the pleasure to report that the Guards will visit Bridgeport, Thursday, Oct 31st, next and dine at The Stratfield at ? D. m We have asked your Mayor to dine with us and we will expect you also. Will you do us the favor to extend the same invitation to Messrs Fred Mullins and Fred Schuss- Ter and Evans If you will furnish me witlt the correct names and addresses of these gentlemen,( I will extend to them personal invita- tions.
 We are arranging to carry the col buildings and railroad trains which as recall them are yellow and red but am not sure. Will yous advise me as to this and also whether Mrs. P. T. Barnum is a1ive.''
 The Ward Guards organization each year selects some city in which to hold a days outing.

 he hadn't made any canvass to see whom they favored, but that his sole work toward feeling out the delegates was to see what there was behind the Studley boom
 In regard to the Progressive party. Senator Judson said:
 'I believe greatly in many of the ideals of the third party and am heart fly in sympathy with many of it's prin- ciples, but I consider that there is too much RooseVeItism in the movement. I believe that the evils which exist today can be remedied by working within the old parties rather than drawing apart from the old parties. on the part of the people of the coun- try for more progressive legislation and the Republican party should meet that demand at once"
 Col. Matthew H. Rogers, Secretary of State, will get the support of the local delegation. There is much cur iosity as to how Rogers stands on the Governorsh1p nomination There are stories about to the effect that he is supporting Robinson because Robin sons nomination would mean the elim- ination of Judge Carlson of Middle town, who is a candidate for the sec rtaryship, by reason of Carlson's com ing from the same town as Judge Rob- inson. Two nominations couldn't t very we'll go to Middletown, and if Judge Robinson was nominated to head the ticket there would be little chance of Judge Carlson getting the nomination for Secretary of State. Arthur Fifoot. chief clerk in the Sec retary of State office, has made a complete canvass of the State to see how the delegates stand.
 Friends of Secretary Rogers are confident that he will get the nom ination whether there is opposition or not.
 The convention will lay much stress on the platform that will be adopted this year and it is believed that there will be many progressive blanks in it to offset the vote-pulling power of the opposing progressive platform. The Republicans recognize in the third party movement stern demand for more progressive stand than has characterized the party platform of the past and the convention will de- vote a good deal of serious atten- tion to that end.
 Senator Judson will attend the con- vention Tuesday and will be prepared to wage a stiff fight against the ma chine in order to secure the nomina- tion of Judge Robinson. The fight will be close and almost anything IS apt to happen at the convention.

MAJOR GEN. WOOD CONSULTS TAFT ON
 WAR SITUATION

Washington, Sept 9-A voluminous interchange of telegrams between President Taft at Beverly and off cials of the state and war depar tments took place. today, relative to the Mex jean situation The President wants to have the fullest information as to the situation along the border and in Southern Mexico and he is receiving a copy of practically every message
 If the President decides to call a special session of Congress it is ex- pected that he will make his known his intention, today
 Reports of new revolt in the southern part of Mexico have been received here but the messages were confidential and their contents were not made public.
 The war department buzzed with ac- tivity today. Maps and war data were eagerly scanned by army offic- CTS.
 Major General Wood, chief of staff, was at his office early after having spe1t most of the night in telephone conversation with members of his staff For a long time the war de par tment has been prepared to send troops into Mexico but additional pre- cautions are being taken to insure quick action in case the President or ders expeditionary force to cross the border.
 It is not believed here, however that the President would permit any invasion of Mexico without the con- sent of Congress.

Superintendent Bodine has 3s men at work cleaning the streets which are to be oiled and expected to finish the job by the last of this week.

POLITICAL NOTES

Looming up strongly on the political horizon as the leading candidates for the Republican Gubernatorial nonina- ton are Judge Silas A. Robinson of Middletown and Judge John P. Stud ley of the New Haven Probate court The candidacy of Judge Robinson is Courant. which has been the leader in a number of bitter attacks upon him. The adherents of Judge Stud1ey ad vance the argument that he is 8 wise choice as an opponent of Governor Baldwin. Governor Baldwin rolled up a splendid majority in New Haven, on the Republican ticket had big Republican majority. Boomers of Judge Studley point to this an an in dicat ton that as an opponent of the terialy reduce the big majority given tc New Haven's favorite son.
 Appointment of Charles E. Julin of New Haven as the publicity agent of the Republican State Committee is re- gardled as an indication ofA healing Henry Roraback and Colonel Isaac M. UIlman. Julin is secretary Of the New Haven Chamber of Commerce, and is very close to Ullman. The ap- poin tment of Julin by Roraback and Julin's acceptance is taken as an in dication of the speedy burial of the political hatchet between these two prominent Republicans.
 Governor Wilson has issued a wig orous statement relative to the can didacy of James Smith, Jr., for United States Senator from New Jersey. Smith seeks support of the electors at the primaries, and if he is the popu- lar choice, the Democratic Legislature will elect him. Governor Wilson charges that Smith utterly defeated the program of his party in Congress, when he was . Senator under Presi- dent Cleveland He charges that Smith has worked steadily but covert Iy against everything that has sub stituted hope and pride for discour- a agement and shame in the politics of New Jersey during the 20 months which I have been permitted to serve the people of the State

 Charleston. W. Va, Sept. eNTnter- est in the Kanawha coal strike was stirred, today, by the prepara tions for the investigation by Governor Glass cocks commission. Hearings will be- gin Wednesday. The commission is expected to take evidence on all Ques- tions bearing on the situation on Paint and Cabin creeks where blood shed and much suffering have been inflicted since the strike began The wage conditions, the sanitary and working conditions are also to be in auired into. The strike began origin ally in a demand for more wages, the miners declaring they could not live on the present rate of pay. Finally. the strike resolved itself Into pro test against the government by guards in the mines. The miners charged that the guards were employed to break tfe strike by force of rifles and machine guns. They declared the guards evicted them from tbe com pany-owned houses without process of law
 The operators charge that the strike was led by a dangerous element and that the guards were necessary to pre- vent the destruction of mine property. It is the merit of this controversy that the comm ;ssion will seek to decide
