The revised death list at Cananea is
five, including the chief of police, four

have been wounded. The raiders first
appeared in Ronquillo. the business
section of the municipality. After an
unsuccessful endeavor to open the
vault of the Banco Mercantile, owned
by Frank Proctor of Los Angeles and

dts went to the home of Mr. Armada,
the cashier, forced him to dress and
go to the bank with them.
When he attempted to demur, they

horses were stolen from the corral

Washington, May s.-President Will
son issued proclamation by cable
Wednesday for special session of
Congress to meet Monday. May 10.
Secretary Tumulty in making the an
nOuncement said 1t would be impossi-
BILE, of course, for the President to be
here on the opening day. The day
fixed for the special session was much
earlier than Democratic leaders had
expected.
White House officials said that in
naming an early date for the season,
President Wilson was guided largely
by the advice of Secretary Glass as to
the necessity of passing annual apprO-
priation measures which failed in the
closing days of the last session.
There was no information ut the
White House as to the probable time
Of the return of the President, but
some administration leaders believed
the President had called the session
earlier than had been anticipated in
order that Congress might dispose of
the more important appropriation
measures before the treaty was ready
for consideration.
Republicans OF the House virtually
have completed their organization, but
the Senate has done no organization,
and this probably will occupy its at
tention for the first week.

err Wednesday issued call for a Re
publican conference May IA to perfect

tative Mondeil, Republican floor lead

lican House members for May II.

HUNS IN NEAR PANIC OVER
TREATY-sTock EXCHANGE
CLOSES.
MAY REFUSE TO SIGN
TAoEBLATT SAYS "TREATY SUR
PASSES OUR WORST Elk
PEcTATIoNs."

western Newspapsr Union News Service
London, May 9.-Under the impress
sion that the peace conditions are
crushing, the Berlin stock exchange
committee has resolved to close the
exchange for three days, according 10
a dispatch received here. Advices state
that at meeting Of the peace COM
mittee, held in Berlin, the German gov
eminent declared itself in favor OF
commercial treaty with Russia.
Berlin.-The Berlin papers publish
summary of the peace terms, when
are condemned by all from the ex-
IRENE left to the ultra-cOnservative
right DIR. TheodOr Wolff, in the Tage-
blatt, says: although we were pre-
pared for good deal, even for every
thing; we can only say that the treaty
surpasses our worst expectations"
Berlin.-The National Zeitung pub
fishes what it terms the official
standpoint the government expects to
take regarding the peace terms. The
government, according to the news
paper, will refuse to sign any point
OF the treaty which provides for Top
preston Of Germany" For instance.
the entente's standpoint regarding
Danzig and the Saar valley will not
be accepted. The German delegates,
however, will make every effort to In
stitute negotiations on these and other
unacceptable demands, says the Ma
tiOnal Zeitung.
Paris. - limitations reaching the
peace conference from Versailles lead
to the belief that two or three MEM
bers OF the German peace delegation
probably will return to Germany to
consult their government, the others
remaining at Versailles. Germany has
not submitted any communication with
regard to the peace treaty. All the
exchanges between the delegation at
Versailles and the home government
are being kept secret.
The delegates said they had expect
ed from the newspaper reports that
the demands in many respects would
be far-reaching, but were not prepared
for the terms MS actually laid down
In the printed copy of the document.
After the conference at Versailles
william NJ. Hughes, premier of Aus
tralia, said, according to Reuter- dis
patch: THE attitude of Count Won
BrOckdorff Rantzau was an intolerable
insult to the conference, for while
Premier Clemenceau spoke standing,
the German spokesman did not rise
while making his address. In spite of
their intOlerable arrogance. the day
was one Of humiliation for the Ger
mans, which we could see had entered
into their souls"
William F. Massey, premier of New
Zealand, said: THE Germans were
more impudent and aggressive than
anything l have ever met"

Meats in Storage

Every working day of the year
100000 pounds of meat are required
to supply home and export needs-and
only 10 per cent of this is exported.
These facts must be kept in mind
when considering the y. S. Bureau of
Markets report that on June l, 1919,
there were l,348,O00.O 900 pounds Of
meats in cold storage. If the meat in
storage was placed on the market it
would only be 20 days. supply.
This meat is not arti6cially withheld
from trade channels to maintain or
advance prices.
Meats in storage consist Of
in process Of curing. 1t takes 80 to go
days in pickle OF salt to complete the
process.
10 per cent is frozen pork that 10 to be cured
later in the year.
6 per cent 10 lard. This 10 only four-fifths
Of pound per capita, and much of it will
have to 60 to supply European needs.
10 per cent is frozen beef and lamb, part of
which 10 owned by the Government and
was intended chiefly for overseas ship
ment. If this were all diverted to domes-
tic trade channels, it would be only
~ lbs. per capita-a 3 days. supply.
1000
From this it will be seen that "meats
In storage" represent merely un-
finished goods in process of curing and
the working supply necessary to assure
the consumer a steady flow of finished
product.

pany, which owns the Garden. had re-
ceived $500 as an advance on the lease
OF the building and $1,000 was offered
by the promters but refused by the COM
pany, which announced It wished to can
eel the contract. This action Is said to
have been taken as n result OF letter
written by an official OF the Anti-Saloon
League. protesting that the party was
to be an "abomination" and would
bring bushes to the face OF negro"
Mr. Martin had paid $3.50 for the sub
lease of a saloon license for the night
and was planning on building the larg-
est bar in the world-of white pine
which would have entirely encircled the
arena at the Garden. This. he ex-
planned yesterday, was because he had
but one license and. therefore, was en-
titled to operate but one bar. The pro-
motors figure they would have made a
profit of from 100000 to $4,000 and
declared that nothing In the least like an
"abomination" was contemplated.
The High Flyers Club had placed the
matter in the hands OF Raymond H.
Safarty for what legal action Is deemed
advisable. 1t was stated.
In Trenton, N. j., yesterday Judge
Kelstao In the Federal court, temporar-
fly dismissed an application in a bill in
equity to restrain Charles F. Lynch
United States District Attorney. OF New
Jersey. from enforcing the war time pro-
hibition act, as well as to prevent him
from making arrests for its violation
The court ruled It would be necessary
for the petitioner to notify the Distric,
Attorney of his application before a
hearing can be given. The hearing will
probably be held in Trenton Monday.
The petition is similar to the one on
which Judge Mayer In New York recent
ly issued an injunction which was upset
by the United States Supreme Court
this week.
