Chicago.-With the republican ma
jority in the house reduced to a NOM
inal handful of votes and the repub-
lican margin in the senate cut from
"a, as at present, to 10 and possibly 8,
on the face Of returns still incom-
plete, the democratic cyclone OF Tues
day has produced a crisis in the
fortunes OF the Harding administra-
ton and tho party in power.
The election practically destroyed
control OF congress by the admins
tration and the republican party for
even with apparent republican MAORI
lies in both houses, the margin will be
10 slender that groups Of progressives
and independents, imbued with a
spirit of insurgency. will hold the
balance of power and either dictate
3r obstruct legislation.
1t already is apparent that the ex,
traordinary setting OF party lines in
congress Is destined to exert a p.O.
found influence upon the political
history Of the next two years. Among
the effects forescen are the making
and breaking OF numerous presidential
booms in both parties, and among the
possibilities is the return Of the demo
Gratis to complete power in the presi
Dental and congressional election Of
1924.

Houston, Tex.-More than 1000, 900
barrels Of oil were doomed and indi-

Lightning caused the blaze which was
spreading over an artificial lake
formed from rain.
Three enormous underground res
e~rvoirs, said to have a capacity Of
400, 900 barrels each, already were
ablaze and the boiling inferno was
spread rapidly toward three other
nearby pits. The whole farm consists
Of 20 tanks, all of which may be lost.
The blaze can be seen for 10 miles
In every direction.
Workers are handicapped in fight
ing the blaze, both by the heat and
the condition Of the field. Rains, the
last two or three days, have almost
flooded the section and fire fighting
apparatus cannot be moved quickly
to the scene.
It was said that some oil was being
drained from three tanks not yet
ablaze and efforts were being made to
keep the fire back by throwing steam
against the leaping blaze.
The farm is situated on a prairie
and fears are entertained that oil will
spread beyond immediate territory.
The site is three miles from Humble,
however. and will not ena the
town property.
