Congress Will Convene on MOn-
 day, May 19, Says Tumulty CANNOT ATTEND OPENING
President, in Calling Congress To- gcther, Has Been Influenced By Appropriation.

Washington, May 7-President Will son issued call by cable today for special session of congress to meet M Monday, May 19.
 Secretary Tumulty in making the announcement said it will be impossi- ble for the president to be here on the opening day. The date fixed for the special session was much earlier than democratic leaders had expected
 Government Needs Funds.
 White House officials said that in naming an early date for the session, President Wilson was guided largely by the advice of Secretary Glass as to the necessity of passing annual ap- propriation measures which failed in the closing days of the last session.
 President Wilson's proclamation calling the extra session follows:
 Text of Proclamation.
 "WhereaS, public interests require that the congress of the United States should be convened in extra session at 12 o'clock noon on the 18th day of May, 1919, to receive such communi- cations as may be made by the execu- tive
 ''Now. therefore, l. Woodrow Will son, president of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim and de- clare that an extra ordinary occasion requires the congress of the United States to convene in extra session in the capitol in the District of Columbi on the 18th day of May, 1919 at 12 o'clock noon, of which all persons who shall at that time be entitled to act as members thereof are hereby re- Quired to take notice.''
 
 There was no information at the White House either as to the proba ble time of the return of the president from France or the submission of the peace treaty to the senate but some leaders believed the president had called the extra session earlier than has been anticipated in order that congress might perfect it's organiza- tion and dispose of the more import ant appropriation mea sures before the treaty was ready for consdera ton.
 G. O. F. Meeting May 17.
 Soon after tie presidents proclama- ton was made public Senator Lodge, republican leader, issued a call for a, republican conference to be held May 14 for the purpose of perfecting or ganization in the senate and Repre- sentative M MOndell announced that a conference of republican house mem- bers would be held on May IT.
 Expect Probe of War.
 General expectations were that soon after it meets the new congress will begin investigation into many charges made of the conduct of the war. Re- publican leaders, however, have an nounced no conclusion as to a general investigation.
 The new congress will be faced with a mass of legislation. Besides the seven appropriations bills aggre gating more than $4,00O, 10000 which failed of passage last session, the last of unpassed measures include all reconstruction legislation and bills de- fning the shipping policy, general railroad legisla tion and dealing with unemployment labor and illteracy i questions.

later the conference ordered fighting over disputed territory to cease.
