CUBAN CONGRESSMEN COY
Not Anxious to Hear Proposals
for New Loan.

Havana, oct S.-When the rollcall for
the extraordinary session of Congress was
made this afternoon only seven Senators
and forty Representatives responded, all
Of whom were adherents OF President
Menocal. AS the number necessary for a
quorum was sixteen Senator'S and sixty
one Representatives no session was pos
sible. and the Presidential message was
not read.
An attempt will be made tomorrow TO
secure quorum. but II will probably not
prove successful. This result was fore
Swallowed by the attitude of the Zayas
and Asbert supporters and the indie
pendents. The indications are that Presi-
dent Menocal will have to abandon hope
Of present consideration of the new loan
which the government considers essential
leaving the question to the regular SEES
sion, which convenes on November /.
In view OF the declaration OF Alfredo
Zayas that he is unalterably opposed 10
the burdening OF cuba with an additional
loan, there appears little reason to be-
lieve that the administration can obtain
Congressional authorization unless great
change occurs in the attitude Of the vari-
Gus political factions.

Mr. Mitchell. being human. was pleased
with his receptions. His face was wreathed
with smiles at each gathering when the
crowd refused to let him begin until it
had shown its appreciation.
The candidate was a trifle hoarse, and
he opened his speech in the Lenox AS

had lost his voice telling Mr.. Murphy

This started the crowd again, and II
seemed as if each in the audience wanted

spplauded Mr.. MitcheIs descriptions of
Tammany Hall corruption and OF Edward

never did he fail to bring the house down

Mccall Attacks Mitchell.

Judge Mccall made the opening speech
Of his campaign. He dsclaimed the idea
that he was "Murphy's man" and it was
a noticeable fact that throughout his en-
tire address, which was OF considerable
length. he never once mentioned the name
of Tammany. In this respect his first
campaign speech will furnish cue TO
future speakers for his cause to put the
soft pedal on "Tammany."
Though Judge Mccall recently declared
that he would indulge In no mud sling
ing" or personalities" in his campaign
utterances. he devoted a good part Of
his speech to a personal attack on Mr.
ly in relation TO the subway contracts. re-
ferring to him as a man incorporate in
judgment and speech. creature OF the
Pulitzers, viliher and one who goes
about making "parrot-like utterances."
Judge Mccall dismissed the police
issue" as a "minor feature" and passed
on from That 10 take up what he regarded
as the paramount issue OF the campaign.
the question OF valuation OF our real
estate and the rate Of taxation that is
predicated thereon" He said that con-
dition had been reached in this city.

"a girl is to acquire even that semi
clothed look that is rather expected o.
her, for her colored stockings will
show at the knees If she wears lace

skirts-however, band Of ribbon
about six or seven inches wide can be
run on fat at the knees and will great

other wide ribbon may be worn
straight around the bust under the
arms and will bring out the lace bras
