Walter Camp, 80, Head Coach Howe and Capt. Jesse Spalding spoke at meeting of candidates for the 1912 university football team Wednesday night Spring practice will begin at once, Mr Camp believed, it was really time that Yale relieve the monotony of the last two years and succeeded in crossing Harvards goal line. The only way to accomplish this is to be- gin right now with earnest determina- tion to succeed. Because of the new system of football, there will be op- portunities next year for all kinds of men, small as well as large. Speed and alertness are to be the essential factors.
 Coach Howe. who was captain of last falls team, urged larger num- Der of men to come out for the game, and Captain Spalding suggested start ing with a thorough determination to prevent the recurrence of such a play as featured last years Princeton game.
 At Harvard and at Princeton the football squads have been out for a week.

LOS ANGELES WAS

Regarded as Breeding Place for Strikebreakers of
 All Crafts

Indianapolis, November 2.--Extracts from the iron workers union magazine concerning a demand upon the American Federation of Labor to raise a tax of cent month on all its members to unionize Los Angeles Cal, three years before James B. McNamara, a brother of the secretary of the iron workers union, blew up the Los Angeles Times building were read by the government at the 'dyna- mite conspiracy trial today.
 One abstract was copy of resolu- tor adopted by the International Asso- citation of Bridge and Structural Iron Workers in September, 1907. It asserted Los Angeles was "a breeding place for strike breakers of all crafts and trades" and added If unionism is crushed in Los Angeles it will be but short time before the same methods are applied to other cities. The struggle is national in scope and should be financed by the American Federation of Labor"

SOL CAHEEN INDIGNANT
 AT LACK OF PROTECTION

Friday night or early Saturday morn ing thieves cracked the plate glass window of Caheen Brothers store on Second avenue and made their escape with two sets of furs, one valued at s75 and the other at s35.
 Sol Caheen, one of the proprietors. declares that he does not hold the pa trolman who has charge of the beat on which the store is located respon- sible. but he does hold the city commits sion responsible.
 In this regard. he said yesterday; We have been engaged in business in Bir- mingham for 30 years. For 28 of these years the city of Birmingham was un- der an aldermanic system of govern ment. Then we had patrolmen. As a result in all those years we were not robbed.
 The city of Birmingham has been for two years. In that time we have been robbed three times, and our win dows have been broken seven other times. The difference is probably the result of the fact that there are not enough patrolmen in Birmingham to give the merchants. who pay the bulk of the taxes, that protection which everybody deserves.
 Tt has been claimed by the commis- sion that the proprietors of fruit stands about the corners are the best protection that merchant can have, and that on their account 1t was not absolutely necessary that additional policemen be placed on the down town beats. It is to be noted that directly in front of our store there is fruit stand-just across the street.

The national campaign in Alabama has come to an end with the leaders well pleased with the situation. Ex-Gov. William D. Jelks national dem mitteeman, feels sure that Woodrow Wilson will sweep the state, carrying. practically every county
 R. A. PEyman, manager of the bull moose forces, and Maj. Charles J. Ali son, manager of the republican forces. eoncede of course, the success of the democrats in Alabama. Each claims, how ever, that his respective candidate will follow Governor Wilson.
 Governor Jelks expects a comparative ly heavy vote, about 10000. He believes taat of that number Wilson will receive 80, 600, and that the vote of the repub- licans and the progressives will be com paratively small with the progressives in advance of the republicans.
 Progressives Claim Jefferson
 Manager Perryman of the progressive forces, looks for an exceedingly heavy vote.
 ''I am inclined to the belief" stated he yesterday. that the total vote will equal 120,o0O. Of that number Roosevelt will receive 500Oo. Taft will receive about coco Wilson will receive about eO.0O0, and the remainder will be scattered between the other candidates.
 We claim the Seventh district for Roosevelt and our candidate for Congress, Sumter Cogswell, overwhelmingly. We will carry all counties of that district except Etowaf.
 For Roosevelt we claim 16 counties in Alabama, among the number being Jeff ferson. This will surprise you. The re- suit will furnish a still greater surprise"
 The 16 counties claimed by Perryman follow: St. Clair. Winston, Franklin, Cleburne. Randolph, Coosa. Chiffon. Shelby, Walker Jefferson. Clay and Es- cambia.
 Taft Forces Confident
 Major Allison of the republican forces smiles when the claims of the progress sves are mentioned in his hearing
 'The progressives will scarcely be heard from in Alabama" he said yesterday. Wilson of course, will win easily. predict that the vote will be t1O.OoO, that Wilson will receive 10000, Taft 5000, Roosevelt 5000. with 20oo scattering.
 "Our figures are not based on the stuff that dreams are made of. We have gone over the situation very carefully, and know that there have not been defections from the ranks of President Taft. A certain small percentage of democrats will vote for Roosevelt-this percentage to be his total vote in Alabama.
 ''I do not think that Wilson will re- ceive as heavy a vote in Alabama as Bryan received. He Is not as popular as Bryan was"
