LEGISLATURE IS
 CALLED TO MEET

Baton Rouge, La. NovembF 16.-Gov- ernor Sanders issued a call tonight for an extra session of the Louisiana legis- lsture to convene November 2S for the purpose of selecting successor to the late United States Senator McEnery. amending statutes relative to the issu- ance of $S,OOO,000 worth of bonds by the sewerage and water board of New Or leans and enactment of a measure per- taining to the tax assessment of state and national banks.
 Complications growing out of the ap- pointment of Judge J. R. Thornton of Alexandria to the senatorial vacancy after the legislature had elected Cover nor Sanders to fill the unexpired term ot Senator McEnery are expected to be straightened out at the extra session. The contention was advanced that as the senatorial vacancy occurred while the legislature was in session, the governor had no right subsequently to fill 1t by appointment After being elected Cover TOT Sanders, acceding to demands that he complete his term as governor, an- nounced that he would not accept the senatorship. He now states that he de- sres to see Judge Thornton elected.
 The coming extra session will estab- fish new record not only for Louisiana, but for the entire country as well, per haps. It will be the second time within the last five months that the general assembly has been convened In extra ordinary session. In the first instance, an amendment of the provision submit ting the Panama exposition tax to the people was responsible for the converting O. the legislature.

Washington, November 16.-The so- called reduction in the prices of meats is a deliberate manipulation of the market, according to pr. Harvey w. Wiley, chief of the bureau of chem istry of the department of agriculture, in a statement made here today.
 "The interests which manipulated the prices upward" said Dr. Wiley, "tem- porarily have released their hold on our throats for the purpose of getting fresh grip. The so-called reduction in meats is fictitious. Its manipulation was deliberate, just as the increase in prices was. unjust, unreasonable and uncalled for by conditions prevailing throughout the country. The prices were fictitious at the top notch because they were forced there arbitrarily by the interests.
 Developments will show that the interests are after some one. It may be some independent movement they hope to drive from cover"
 Secretary Wilson said today that the announced reduction in prices was ab- normal He said 1t was due to the fact that the drouth In the cattle raising country had increased the cost of hay. The farmer with cattle on his hands must pay $35 ton for his hay and rather than do this he was sending his

COURT MACHINERY BADLY CLOGGED BY
 STANDARD OIL CASE

Jackson, Tenn, November 16- Federal court machinery was clogged today because of the non-arrival of Washington since Monday. With their arrival, in all probability tomorrow morning, the case of the prosecution will be closed and the climax will come Tn the suit of the United States against the Standard oil company of Indiana, charged with receiving freight rate concessions.
 These papers, the attorneys for the government declared, have to do with other rates, higher tariffs than the 13- defendant company is alleged to have paid on shipments from their Whiting, Ind, refinery to Grand Junction, Tenn, for beyond" They will show to apply, the government contends, from Evans vile to Grand Junction, much shorter haul and over the same lines than from Whiting.
 vigorous effort is to be made when instructed verdict for the defense. If this fails, evidence in contravention to the prosecution's contentious will be tendered but 1t will be extensive.
 Today's court sessions were largely orefunctory In the morning legal nroblems were discussed without reach ing a court ruling and in the afternoon one witness was heard. His testimony was as to the division of freight rates accruing to the several roads interested in the operation of the Recent rate.

 FOOD IS BANNED

New York, November 16.-The federal government today took a hand in the movement to stop the sale of impure food in this city. Dr. Harvey W. Wiley head of the pure food and drugs bureau at Washington, detailed two inspectors to assist the New York board of health In its investigation.

DENVER FLIGHTS
 REQUIRE EFFORT

Denver, November 1s.-Spectators az Denver's mile high aviation field wit messed interesting flight by Ralph John- ston, Arch Hoxsey and Walter R. Brookins at Overland park this after noon. Johnston rose 1500 feet and sailed gracefully over the field back and forth for several minutes. while Hoxsey sailed 300 feet below him, cutting figure eights.
 Brookins also darted to and fro across the field at an altitude of about 1000 feet.
 The light air of this altitude, in which neither of the aviators had ever at tempted flights before, proved somewhat disconcerting at first.
 Johnston explained after alighting from his first flight that he could not get his machine off the ground until he had in- creased the power much more than Is necessary in lower attitudes. All three Of the bird men noticed this difference in conditions and they are anxious to test the climbing capacity of their machines against the rarified air of these mountain sections.

Parliamentary Muddle In
 England Stirs Leaders
Most Important Thing That Has Developed Is the Fact That the House of Lords Has Finally Become Aware That Self Reform Is Necessary to Existence But
 When This Will Begin Is the Question

King George arrived in London from Sandringham today and received Premier Asquith soon after reaching the palace.
 The Earl of Crewe did not place any specific limit as to the length of the de- bate on the veto bill, but said the gov ernment later would consider when the second reading of the measure should be taken
 Lord Roseberry, in the house of lords thus scored the first point in the political game and disorganzed the governments original plans for the immediate dissolu tion of parliament, though there is noth- Ing tangible to show how long the day may be deferred
 The Earl of Crewe declared that he did not agree with the belief expressed by Lord Lapsdowhe yesterday that future conferences may be more successful than the one just opened, saying:
 That conference has conclusiveiy shown that it is impossible to settle this question by an agreement"
 The earl added that the government would accept no amendments to the veto bill.
 The veto bill passed the first reading tonight.
 Lord Lansdowne, on moving the invita- ton of the government to produce a veto bill for consideration by parliament, said that the upper house was ready with it's contribution toward a solution of the question at issue. His party, continued Lord Lansdowne, was committed to the view that In a reformed house of lords there should be a reduction of member ship abolition, of the hereditary principle and adequate, representation of the best elements of the existing house reinforced from the outside either by nomination or lrip aP e1erfinD If also was ready. he said, to devise some means of settling the differences between the two houses.
 The government, he declared, had no right to assume, because the eight front benchers failed to bring about an agree ment, that parliament could not settle the tremendous problems.

PROTEST MADE
 BY PORTUGAL

Washington, November 16.-The Portu- guese minister, Viscount de Ate, to- day sent to the Associated Press a state ment requesting contradiction of reports to the effect that an anti-slavery com mittee had appealed to the Portuguese provisional government at Lisbon against the methods employed in recruiting labor In West Africa.
 ''The committee, on the contrary says the minister's statement, "called on the members or the government in order to thank them for the stand they have taken in the matter.
 Tt will be remembered that the pro- visional government shortly after their accession to office, declared that they would remove every just cause of com plaint In connection with contract labor in Africa, and begin by enforcing strict ly the regulations made for the protec- ton of the natives which insure to them free contracts and equally free repatrla- tion."

Great Falls Is Not Gaining

Washin gton, November 16.-The pop ulation of Great Falls, Mont, is 13,- 94S, a decrease of 9S2 compared with 14,930 in 1900.
 Director Durand In 8 statement said the Great Falls return as originally re- ceived showed 8 total of 23,324 or S376 more than the correct count.
 The director attributes the attempt ed padding to three out of the twelve enumerators of the city. 60 per cent of whose returns, he said. were frau dulent.
 The three men were arraigned and two of them sent to jail for "A hours each and fined s150 each, while the third was in prison for AS hours and fined $200.
 He says the increases were obtained largely by taking the names of tran sient visitors to the city which were placed in the hands of the enumer- ators by private individuals.
 The returns show decrease from the figures of 1900 amounting to 9S2 but MT. Durand contends that as there was fraud in the 1900 census there has been an actual growth.

London Announces Death

London, November 17.-All the London morning papers announce the death of Count Tolstoi based on special dispatches to a news agency from St. Petersburg and Mascow and published long memoirs
 After the issuance of the papers there was considerable element of doubt as to the actual death of Tolstoi, following the receipt of Russian news agency dis patch from St. Petersburg stating that the death of Tolstoi was unconfirmed.
 The Times publishes dispatch from St. Petersburg timed 1 51 a m., as follows:
 News of Tolstoi's death reached here only few minutes before the dispatch of this telegram. No details are yet known here. Conflicting rumors prevailed the whole of yesterday. It seems that the tourney in a crowded train from the monastery, during which Tolstoi was compelled by lack of room to stand on the platform, exposed to bitter cold and ram, was the direct cause of the inflam- nation of the lungs. which unhappily proved fatal"
