HATFIELD GETS HUGE MAJORITY
Democrat Wins Texas Senate Race by
 Three-tO.One Ratio.

Dallas, Tex, Nov. w. E. Talbot director of the Republican organiza tion in Texas, at II o'clock tonigh conceded the election of Earle B Mayfeld, Democratic nominee for sen ator, over George E. B. Teddy, Repub iican, and independent Democrat can didate. Returns at that time showed practically a 3-to-1 lead for May field
 Col. Henry D. Lindsley, Peddy's campaign manager, said: From par | tial returns it seems quite certain that on the face of it Mayeld has a large majority"
 Mayfield had a lead of 5S,729 votes over Teddy, when incomplete returns from 139 counties ou. of 251 had been tabu,ated by the Texas Election Bu- rlau. The vote was; Mayfeld, 94,- 9S9; Teddy 36,26O
 A blanket challenge of all ballots on which Mayfield's name appeared and of all votes for Mayfield cast by such ba lots, was presented at prac- tically all boxes in Wichita county to- day by Teddy supporters. The chal- lenge was presented verbally at each of the polling places. the contention being that the injunction issued by Judge Blackmon of Groesbeck against D acing Mayeld's name on the ballot T'ill was in force
 Scattered reports indicated a light vote, estimated by some at about 50 per cent of the total
 What interest there was centered in the contest between Mayfeld and Teddy, independent Democrat with Republican support
 By all night work, by many counties were abel to give the voters ballots with the name of Mayfield printed in. Peddy's name did not appear on the to write it. Mayfield's supporters had to do the same in some counties where ballots without his name were dis tributed Mayfield is said to have been the choice of the .Ku lux Klan for the Senate, while Teddy was open " the antiKu Klux candidate.

WILL CALL SPECIAL SESSION
President Expects to Convene Con.
 gresS to Meet November 20.

Washington, Nov. 7.-President Harding expec.s to issue a call Thurs dey CT Friday for special session of congress, converting November 20. it was announced at the White House today.
 It l%as said that although the presi- deit is not irrevocably committed to tne proposal for the special session, which has generally been expected, by congressional leaders, only an eley. -enth hour change of mind would pre- vent him from issuing the call
 The plan for a special session after the election has received the general endorsement of Senate and House leaders. It is understood the presi- dent feels that by meeting at least two weeks in advance of the regular ses- sion the legislative program can be so advanced as to enable Congress to clean up it's slate by the time the reg u'ar session ends next March 4.
 The feeling among administration officials has been that unless an earli- CT start is made than would, be DOS s,ble with Congress meeting the first Monday in December, an extra session undoubtedly would be necessary after March f.
 Although the program for the spec ial session has not been worked out definitely, it briefly provides for con- sideration by the House of the mer- chant marine bill and work by the Senate on the Dyer "anti-lynching" measure, which already has passed the House.
 Administration leaders hope these measures can be disposed of by the time the regular sessions convenes, 2nd House leaders have assured the resident that by that time committee work on several of the regular appro- priation bills will be finished.
