five billion dollars. The loss during

and was not the result of any great
conflagration.

aid of Democratic votes, President
Harding would have been repudiated
by an overwhelming vote.
That Congress will reassemble IN
special session about November 10
or shortly after the elections is the
belief of Republican leaders of both
House and Senate who have confer
red with President Harding within
the last couple of days 1t Is said
the President is especially DESTROYS to
have Congress enact ship subsidy
legislation either at a special session
or during the regular session which
meets the first Monday in December.
The leaders are also anxious that
railroad legislation which will pre-
vent further strikes on our transpor-
tation systems such as the country is
lust now recovering from should be
passed. The various appropriation
measures, carrying large sums for
the support of the government could
be gotten under way at a special
session and there would be more time
at the regular session for the dis
posal of other important public bus
mess. It is the opinion Of leaders of
both Senate and House that the
present session will adjourn not later
than Saturday of this week.

 COURT VICTORY
Motion Granted to Stay Ac- ton of District Court
 in Injunction Suit

AUSTIN, Tex, Oct. 27.-The state supreme court tonight granted a mo- tion to stay the action of the Navarro county district court in the injunction suit seeking to prevent the certifica- ton of the name of Earle B. Mayfield as Democratic senatorial candidate.
 The court also, in it's answers to the certified questions from the Dallas court of civil appeals, held that the appealees were without authority to institute and maintain the injunction and therefore the district court is without jurisdiction.
 In holding that the appealees, had no Jurisdiction to bring and maintain the injunction proceedings, the court also held that section 9, chapter SS, which was the center of argument al the hearing before the court Wednes day, is constitutional.
 Only two of the seven questions certified to the court by the Dallas court of civil appeals were answered These two regard the right of the plaintiffs to bring the suit and consti nationality of the quo warranto" seC tion. It is declared that with the an swering of these questions. the an swers to the remaining questions arc not necessary.

MEXICAN GOVERNMENT ORDERS
 NEW YORK CONSULATE CLOSED;
 ATTACH FUNDS AND FURNITURE

WASHINGTON, Oct. 27.-The Mex ican consulate in New York City was ordered colsed, it was said today at the Mexican embassy, because of the decision of the New York state su- preme court in the Oliver-American trading corporation case, which 1t was contended was in violation of both the principles of civil and of in- ternational law Mexican officials in New York also, it was added, had no facilities with which to carry on their duties, inasmuch as the funds and fur niture Of the consulate had been at tached. For these reasons, it was stat ed. the consulate would remain closed until the questions at issue had been satisfactorily adjusted.
 Mexican officials here said they had asked the state department to take action in the case but at the depart ment comment was withheld. It was learned however, that the matter had been taken up directly with New York state officials by the department Un- til a reply is received from Governor Mlller IL IS ullueTSlOOu t1dl lue SIiIc department will make no reply to the Mexican representations. Comment ing upon the case Manuel O. Tellee. charge d'affaires of Mexico. said that the action of the New York court was in violation of the immunity extended to the consular representatives all over the world
 "The consulate in New York he continued, "is supposed to be estab- lished to foster and help the interests of the American commerce which oc- { cupies today the first place in our trade, with nearly 70 per cent of our total imports. If the American author ities in New York do not extend to us not only the facilities to that mission, but the element conceded by interna tional law we can only close the con sulate, much to our regret. This is what has happened in the case of the Oliver-American trading corporation and therefore we will not reopen the consulate until the writ of attachment is suspended"

Events were strung along all through the day, each inter woven with the navy's tribute to the memory of Theodore Roosevelt in rec ognition of his birth anniversary.
 And in true sailor fashion, the dual celebration eliminated tonight around the mass table with Edwin Denby, now secretary of the navy, but once just plain Jack Tar Denby as chief yarn spinner On the whole it was joyous day for navy folks and their friends.

There was smarter slant to his flat top hat and more or a deep sea roll to his stride.
 Still there were moments of deep- est solemnity. Over at Arlington, when Secretary Denby stopped to lay navy wreath on the tomb of the un- known soldier, the glittering staff that made the pilgrimage with him, stood uncovered with bowed heads for a moment That was all. There was
