composed mostly of republican mem
bers of the house and senate and a
few state officials. There was no
ceremony attached to the induction of
the new governor into office. the sim
pie administration of the oath consti-
tuting the entire official procedure.
During the morning Governor Lind
sey established his quarters in the
executive office in the capitol and re-
ceived ynany callers during the day.
At the afternoon session of the legis-
ature he transmitted to both house
and senate executive message No. IA,
notifying tho members that he had
taken the oath of office and was
ready to receive any communication
that might he transmitted to him.
No Politics Talked.
There is an entire lack Of political
talk in Santa Fe except as is carried
on behind closed doors, and little spec
ulation is heard as to the course of
the new governor There exists a
general belief that Governor Lindsey
will do nothing to upset the appoint
ments made by Governor de Baca, and
it is even predicted that he will urge
his party associates in the senate to
confirm those appointments. The gov
ernor himself has given out nothing
on this subject but his close friends
declare that 1t is his chief desire to
have the administration as free as pos
sible from the chickering's of partisan
politics and that he will carefully
avoid any action that might be con-
strued as a reflection of his predeces-
sor.
Another matter that is causing con-
siderable talk is as to who will be the
successor to Senator Clark as repub-
lican floor leader now that the san Mi
guel senator has been taken from the
floor to permanent presidency of the
senate. The best opinion is that the
caucus choice will lie between Senators
Kaseman. Tully and Reinburg. As
the chairman of the important judi
ciary committee Senator Kaseman is
logically in line for the post OF lead
er.

Santa Fe, Feb. 19.--The machinery
of legislation stood still today while
Santa F'e mourned the death of Gov.
f. C. de Baca.
Flags displayed at haIf-mast on
state and federal buildings attested
the official tribute of respect to the
dead governor, while bowed heads
and hushcd voices in the places where
the hum of political gossip ordinarily
is heard bore witness to the general
sorrow of all classes or citizens. Dur
ing the afternoon the tollins Of the
bells of the cathedral heightened the
air of soIemnity that pervaded the
city Leaden skies from which fell
~ steady drip of snow all day made it
seem that nature was in harmony
with the downcast spirit of the peo-
pie.
At a specially called session of the
house of representatives held this
morning at 3 o'clock, the news of
Governor de Baca's death was Off
cially communicated to the legisla-
ture by Secretary or State Antonio
Lucero. The message was received in
silence and n recess was taken until
2 o'clock this afternoon, at which
time both house and senate met in
adjourned sessions.
Resolutions Passed.
The senate was called to order by
Senator John f. Clark, of San Mi
guel, now the permanent presiding
officer of that body. The first busi-
ness transacted after prayer by the
chaplain was the introduction and
passage of resolution by Senator
Easeman, expressing the sorrow of the
senate at Governor de Baca's death
and declaring that when. the senate
adjourned, it be out of respect to the
memory of the chief executive. A re-
cess was then taken to await the ar
rival of house joint resolution known
to be on its way to the senate.
The joint resolution also expressed
the grief of the members on account

was the exclusion from the floor of all
persons except members Vt the senate
and the house, the attaches of the SEN
ate and representatives of the press,

to have been aimed at state officers
who have hitherto had the run of both
house and have at times made them
selves obnoxious by interference in
legIs lation.
In this connection, in the afternoon
session, before the adoption of the
rules, President Claridge observed
Governor Hunt in the gallery and m
vited him to the floor but the governor
declined the invitation.
Several new bills were introduced.
There was three by Mr.. Wilkinson. one
for the conservation of the eye sight of
infants, one for the conservation of
the eye sight of school children and one
for the conservation of the eye sight
of people generally. The later prohibits
the use of wood alcohol in medicinal
preparations for any purpose as dem
atured alcohol serves the same purpose
and is safer.
President Claridge brough in a bill
prohibiting the publication of liquor
advertisements in the state Two bills
were introduced by Mr.. Whipple of
Greenlee. One provides for the renewal
of judgments for ten years and the
other limits the time within which a
civil action may be begun to five years.
Another bill was brought in by the COM
mittee on labor providing for the es-
adjustment in connection with the
United States department of labor, of

The House
The house was in session only hall

new bills were introduced as follows:
BY Speaker Johns of Yavapai. au-

chairman of the New York stock ex-
change clearing house committee were
the only witnesses examined to-day
They were questioned by Mr.. Whipple
as to the power of experienced specu-
lative cliques to manipulate the mar
ket by short" selling at the expense
of the public" and to take advantage
of "unfavorable news" in order to de-
press prices and cover" at a profit.
Short sale" spectators are alleged
to have been the leak" beneficiaries.
The attorney ELECTED the information
that it was the practice of brokers
with the consent of their customers, to
loan stocks bought on margin to other
brokers, who, in turn, used them for
short sales" transactions. Thus it
was explained the stock of the custom
ers who hoped to profit by a rising
market could become a weapon in the
hands of the short" sale Spectator
who hopes for a falling market.
That is pursued Mr.. Whipple, "a
man may furnish the petrad on which
he is hoist" Z.
THAT is possible" Mr. STREET con-
coded
Mr. STREET defended short" selling
as necessary requisite to a free mar
ket," and said that experience in Ger
many and France shows it was in
advisable for economic reasons to dis
pense with it. He conceded, however,
that if short" selling should be abol-
ished there would not be so much
speculation.
The short sale, then" remarked
Mr.. Whipple, lis the foundation OF
speculation"
81 would not say that" Mr. STREET
replied. Il meant that there would
not be such volume of speculation
and. incidentally. the speculative risk
would be greater"
| Turning to Mr.. Mobiles personal
views of the ethics of the market, Mr.
| Whipple inquired diligently in many
different forms if he considered
short" sale operations designed to ac-
centuate unfavorable news in order to
depress prices and take profits were
| immoral" The witness finally con-
coded he saw no improperly in these
operations, but in resuming the stand
at his own request later in the day
amended his answer. He said he had
misunderstood the tenor of Mr.. Whip
pies question and explained that he die
not approve of a concerted action oil
conspiracy to depress the market arti-
ficially."
Less than 200 persons were attract
ed by the hearing. There were no wom-
en- spectators except the wife of one
of the committeeman.

mons furnishes an equally good oppor-
tunity for the advancement of personal
views. Il is already foreshadowed by
members of the commons that a dis
cussion will be insisted upon when
parliament reassembles and speeches
from members of the present and the
late cabinet are expected.
Possible action by the American
congress on committing the nation to
membership in an international peace
league is awaited with greatest inter-
est Both David Lloyd George, in his
historic maiden speech as premier
and Viscount Grey, while minister for
foreign affairs, stated strongly that
membership in such league without
ob'isations to force its DEGREES by arms
would be useless.
The effect Of President Wilson's pei
icy en- the status of the Monroe Doc
trine is discussed with equal interest
Several British publicists. notably L. J.
Maxse editor of the National Review,
suggested recently that Great Britain
is entitled to a weighty voice in any
international movements in the Ameri-
can hemisphere because of the growing
Importance of Canada as one of the
foremost nations of that hemisphere.
The voice of the silent masses upon
the war was heard in the labor party
held at Manchester today when it en-
dorsed the action of the labor members
of parliament who entered the war
cabinet by vote of more than six to
one Most of the small substratum of
sentiment favoring a conciliatOry pol
Icy toward the central empires is to be
found in labor unionits and small
group of intelectuals.
The Central News says that I'M
doubtedly the manifesto has developed
situation of extreme delicacy. 1t adds:
Whether or not it was expected by
the allied departments in London, it
came as a bomb shell to those outside
the official circle, and no amount of
President Wilson's plain English will
convince the rank and file of the men,
bers of parliament or the man in the
street that it has no direct bearing on
the immediate facts of the war.
1T is not dOing the president an in
Justice to say that whatever may have
been the lofty motives of his speech,
the average British member of parlia-
ment and MS constituents regard it as
an ill-timeG interference in matters
which can only concern the United
States when the time comes for Get
