7era Cruz Has Too
 Many Law Makers

Vera Cruz, Oct. 7.-The recently Elected members of the legislature ot the state of Vera Cruz met today at (alapa, but, because of alleged irreg- .arities arising. from the political Conflict, the members split into tive bodies, each claiming to be the legal legislative assembly.
 Fear is expressed in political cir tles, that, as in some other states
 t will be impossible to form con btitutional government and that the
 provisional government appointed by the central government in Mexico City will remain in power.
 There is some apprehension that the situation may lead to an armed elash, but it is not thought likely Fhat any such developments woult have far reaching results.

There has been discussion as to whether the membership of the House of representatives, now fixed at 435, should not be reduced as that num- Der is considered by some parlia- mentarians as too large and unwieldy ia body. People of some states are fearful that their representation in the House might be cut down and oppose any reduction.
 In 1790 the number of Representati- yes was fixed at 65 each representati- vse approximately 3O,000 people
 The number has increased with each decade, based on census returns, un- til each of the present 435 members of the House represents approximate ly 211,S77. The actual ratio of representation varies from 80,293 in Nevada to 228,027 in Washington. Nevada, Delaware, Wyoming and Ari-

Baltimore Takes
 Another Contest

Baltimore, Oct. 7.-Baltimore made it two in row in the international league series with St. Paul today, winning the second game by to 5. It was free hitting contest, with the homes club better able to bunch it's singles, and with one big inning to its credit, the new international league champions had no great trou- ble in winning.
 Ogden went the route for the home team, while Manager Kelley of the Saints used a trio of his strong arm men. Merritt, left handler, started for the Saints and went along until the fifth when the Orioles doves him to the showers, after three runs had been chalked up with but one out. Williams tookA up the burden, but lasted only one third of an in- ming, during which time three more counts were put over. Coumbe then toed the mound and stopped more trouble, after loading the bases. He permitted only one hit during his oc- cupancy of the hill.
 The third game of the series will be played on Saturday.

Market News }

NEW YORK. March 10.-Another vigorous rally in foreign exchange. the lowest renewal rate for demand loans in a fortnight and favorable state industrial companies together with an increased dividend. accounted mainly for the breadth and activity of today s stock market.
 Demand bills on London rose to 376 before 3 o'clock exceeding the pre- vious recovery by six cents and re- cording an extreme rebound of 57 cents from the low of last month, with concurrent strengthening of remit tances to allied countries. CaE rsso17y opened at ' per cent and held at that quotation throughout the session. AL though time rates were ostensibly un- changed. reports credited interior banks with local reserves as disposed to negotiate new loans for moderate amounts at concessions.
 Recent supreme court decisions dealing with stock tax exemption and railroad valuations were again effect i've in the buying movement. High grade rails, also the cheaper transpor- tations and numerous railroad equip ments denoted confident accumulation at gains of ? to 10 points.
 Oils and coppers were frScluded among the prominent and higher is sues of the last hour, but General Mo- tors and CrucibIe Steel were relegated to comparative obscurity, closing at nominal gains after evincing much ir- ritation. Sales amounted to 100000.
 Liberty bonds were steady, int1r1a- tionals mixed and the general domestic list irregular, local fractions harden ing. Total sales, par value, were s12.- 650.0O0. Old United States bonds un- changed on call.

HEAVY RAIN BRINGS
 JOY AND SAFETY
 MESA FARM REGION

MESA, March IA heavy rain that fell most of yesterday brought joy and inestimable returns to the farmers un- der the Consolidated canal who are temporarily without irrigation water. owing to the break in the canal made some weeks ago by the flood waters in the Salt river.
 Farmers discussing the situation on the streets in Mesa yesterday were Of the opinion that the precipitation was sufficient to permit those who have their ground already in shape to go ahead with the planting. The entire 5 900 acres under the Consolidated which have been without water except for the small amount furnished from the Eastern canal and by the pumps in operation. since the canal went out, will be immensely benefited by the rainfall If the rain continues, plant ing can follow and irrigation will not be needed before water is turned into the canal again, it was said.
 Meanwhile every effort is being made to make the quickest job possible of putting in the new ditch where the Consolidated was washed out. State and county officials have permitted the ject and these are being added to the force already put to work by the farm CTS. No let-up is being made in ob- taining more stock and equipment from the farmers under the project, how ever. In Mesa an6 Chandler and other districts under the Consolidated, every farm has been canvassed and all avail able teams are being added to the force.
