signed 5y six members of the com mittee, who asked that the meeting be called for December 29."
 Mir. Brewster is discussing the matter yesterday afternoon said that the official call devolves upon him, as chairman of the committee and as set out in Rule 52. As matter of courtesy. he haid, he drew the call and presented it to Secretary Jo Nichol to attest his signature, which is the custom, and left the copy with him for his files. AS far as MT. Nichol having anything to do with the call of the committee his sigma ture will neither add nor detract from the validity of the document said MT. Brewster.
 The object of the meeting of the committee is to air the petition of R. H. Williams, who was defeated for sheriff and collector by MT. Brewster in the recent county pri- mary election, as shown by the of ficial returns. Mir. Williams makes no charges of fraud, but does charge irregularities in several wards and townships throughout the county.
 MT. Nichol made a statement to the Graphic yesterday to the effect that R. Ii. Williams had asked him to sign, az a member of the commit tde, request to Chairman Brews- ter, that he call the committee to meet on December 29. MT. Nichol said that he refused to sign MT. Will Hams request or petition, because he preferred that the interested parties get together and agree on satis- factory date. He says that when he learned that six committeeman had presented a request for the meeting on December 29, he then asked Mir. Brewster to erase his name, as sec retary, :rcm the original call of Chairman Brewster for the meeting to be held on January z.
 It is expected that should the committee decide to go into the bal lot boxes and have a recount of the votes in the wards and townships that other candidates. particularly Constable Evan Parnell and c.

ever wri,'en on the statute books ol this country. He claims that it was proof of the answering fidelity of the pledg5 of President Wilson" to the country. It is a lasting repu- tation to the charge that the Dem ocratic party is not a constructive party.
 Victor Murdock, Bull Moose leader, announced his support for the bill because it jostled out of "a rut the worn out financial system of this country" MT. Murdock said he did not consider the bill perfect; he thought It full of defects, a partisan measure, and "eXcusing their inde- fensible position in passing a foolish Tariff bill, the Democrats sought relief in their currency reform. Wall street has been busy since the pass age of the Tariff Bill. Their minions have been talking business to death ;ince passage of that bill. They haEC preached the doctrine or pessimism, of calamity. I am sorry to say Republican leaders here have been led to believe that their party success lays in national disaster. The special interests are working. Wall street has not been beaten. These men are your enemies as we'll as mine. But you struck half blok. Had you struck full blow you may have won. You make no attack on interlocking directorates with other evils"

BIG BANK CLOSES
 IN MEXICO CITY
Situation Is Critical, In Fact Most Serious In Financial History of
 The Republic

Mexico City, Dec. 22-The general financial crash is at hand. The banks closed their doors today. The Banco Central, the Banco National and the Banco Londresy Mexico. These are the largest and the most important banks in the republic. The directors of the three suspended in stitutions held a lengthy conference this afternoon with officers of the banking department. A plan to en- able the banks to issue two peso notes was discussed and the bank of ficials declared that the suspension was only temporary.
 It is generally admitted that busi- ness and financial conditions are worse nov than they have ever been in the history of the republic. Noth- ing but coup can save the situation and with Zapata hammering at the gates of the capital the situation is most critical.

WILD PANIC IN 4

 Both Stabbed
WENT OUT WINDOWS
Battle Occurred While Train Was Running Between \eNro
 and Baucum.

When Tom Nelson. a 36 year old negro, O. England, Ark, and James Christian, p, of Keo. Ark, engaged in a deadly battle with knives in tha crowded Gillette coach of Cotton Belt branch train No. 437, while the and Ba1eum, six miles from Argen. to and en route 10 Pine Bluff. yesa terday afternoon, resulting finally ill Nelson wrestling a revolver from Christians hand and firing bullet into the latter's brai1 wild panic of negro .,assengers, who were iam- med in ,he car like sardines in a box, resi:ited. Many of the negroes jumped through the coach windows, falling Gown the embarkment at either side of the tracks. Others fought to get out of the doors at the two ends of the coach and dozens hid under seats.
 The Christian negro will die. Probably fatally injured, he was talk en from the train at Toletc. He is also seriously stabbed in addition to being shot in the head. Nelson, who was slashed across the body and face by Christi9n before he drew his gun from his pocket, pulled the cord twice, ther three times and then pulled the conductors cord. which automatically stopped the train.t Engineer E. o. King, in the engine, was slowing down when Nel- son jumped from the coach with his revolver in his hand and escaped in- to the woods.
 The fight was the result of a drunken brawl. The train was so Heavily laden with passengers that Conductor Tom Lambert had to col- lect fares as the passengers entered the coaches at Argenta. The coach in which the battle took place was so crowded that the train crew could not go through it. When the shoot- ing took r'ace the aisle was cleared rapidly and when the train finally came to stop the coach was empty. Hundreds of negroes, who had been to Argen.a and Little Rock to do their shopping, were aboard when the train left Arye1ta.
 The men first began to fight with knives, but seeing that he was get ting the worst of the mix-up Chris ton drew his revolver. Nelson suc-. ceeded in getting his antagonist over seat md wrenched the weapon from him. Christian continued to fight with his knife and Nelson shot him.

Miss Rankin is president of the Equal Suffrage Association, and now that the bill for enfranchisement of women has twice passed both houses of the Montana Legislattlre-the sec ond time with only two dissenting votes in each house--t there is a great deal to be done before the bill is re- ferred to the people to vote on in 1914.
