THE EXTRA SESSION.
Probability That the Hooker Charges
VIII Be the Only Business.

Albany June 20.-Indications null
tiply that the charges against Justice
p Warren b. Hooker Of the supreme
court will be the only matter pro
posed by Governor Higgins for the at
tention of the extraordinary session
of the legislature which he has sum
moned to convene here at noon on
Wednesday,
The governor said last night that he
had BEEN urged to recommend action
on almost every proposition which
failed Of passage at the regular ses
sion. lie would not intimate in any
way what matters he would propose
for legislative action, adding that prob
ably he would give no intimation on
the subject until the two houses of the
Legislature had actually convened and
that his message thereupon would be
very brief, 81 am not prepared tc
say" he said. whether any other than
the Hooker matter will be proposed"
Topics pertinent to the extra ses
sion will be considered at conference
to be held here today by Governor
Higgins. former Governor Odell, as
chairman of the Republican state com
mittee, Senator Raines, Republican
leader In the senate; Chairman Malby
Of the senate finance committee;
Speaker Nixon Of the assembly and
possibly one or two other prominent
Legislators. Governor Higgins said he
had no intlmation that the conference
would have any particular reference
to the matter Of the Equitable Life
Assurance society or the report there
on of Insurance Superintendent Hen
bricks.
Governor Higgins declined to ex
press any opinion as to the probable
length of the special session of the
legislature. Most Of the leaders who
have been here say they believe II
will last at least month.
The present expectation is that on
Wednesday or perhaps Thursday the
formal charges against Justice Hooker
will be adopted substantially as for
mulated by the assembly judiciary
committee and will be delivered to
one or both of the sergeants-at-arm
to be served upon Justice Hooker al
his home in Fredonia.
The legislature will probably then
take q recess for about 10 days or
perhaps over the Fourth of July to
give Justice Hooker time in which to
prepare reply. Upon reconvening the
reply will be taken up and probably
the taking of evidence will be begun.

body knew anything about the dishes.
Then came the mayors change of

1t was announced yesterday that he
had written to Boss Durham that he
must take back at once the horses
and the pony and appoint time and
place. Thus was Santa Claus Durham
revealed. Mayor Weaver also nou.

Woman and Child Found In the River

Pittsburg, June ia pitiful trag
edy. 1t is believed, lies back of the dis
covery of two bodies. presumably
those Of mother and her child, in the
Monongahela river at McKeesport
Tied tightly about the waists of the
woman and the child was a bed sheet
which had been twisted into rope
The clothes indicate that the two
came from a home of comfort The
theory that first gained credence was
that the woman and child had been
murdered, but the belief more general
ly held by the authorities now is that
the woman deliberately tied the sheet
about herself and her daughter and
that the two then plunged into the
water TO die together.
