EXTRA SESSION
OF CONGRESS IS
SIDE TRACKED
President Guided by Ad'
vice of Republican Lead
ers in Decision

WASHINGTON Sept. 20 P-Pro-
posals for a special session of congress
have been sidetracked by President
Coolidge.
He also has been advised by repub-
lican leaders here that there is no
occasion for a special session of the
senate alone, and it was indicated CO.
day at the White House that no call
for one would be issued.
In reaching a definite decision
against calling congress into session
before the regular convening date in
December, Mr.. Coolidge has been
guided by the advice of Senator Curtis,
and Representative Tilson, republican
leaders of the senate and house, who
have told him there would be suffic-
lent time in the regular session con-
vening in December to enact pending
business.
So far as the Mississippi river flood
situation is concerned the president
understands arrangements have been
amde to care for the relief work until
January l. He has been informed by
engineers who are drafting a flood
control program that they will be un-
able to report before November IS or
later.
While some senators had suggested
a special session of the senate to thresh
out the contests over the seats of Sen

The impossible happened yes
terday when two candidates for
election rs Miss Douglas tied for
first place in the daily unofficial
tabulati0n compiled at 4:3O p. m.
Miss Clara Beth White and
Miss, Alice MahOney, each with
GIG coupon votes, today stand an
equal chance of being the Douglas
entry in the elimination next
week when the queen of the
seventh annual COchise county
fair, Miss COchise, is chosen from
representatives of six or seven
communities of the county.
Miss White and Miss MahOney
have been crOwding each other in
and out of first place for more
than week, and, SO far as the
tabulatiOn shows, are the only
contestants remaining vitally in the
race. Yesterday, Miss Edna Mont
gOmery announced her withdrawal,
leaving Miss Virginia Johnson,
with IA votes, the only other en-
try.
rlOwever, anything may happen.
There may be in Douglas a band
of ruthless campaigners who are
clipping ballots from the Daily
Dispatch and saving them with
the full purpose of landsliding

Or, perhaps, supporters of one Of
the present leaders may be or
gaming to spring big surprise.
Only three days remain for vote
collecting and only three more
ballots, including the one appear
ing today, will be published. Sup
pOrterS of the two ranking COM
petitOrs will undoubtedly do some
keen ruStling for ballots during
those three days. The race will
go to the swiftest, the contest win
close at 4:3O p. m. Friday, and
only the final count will reveal
the answer to the question, ''WhO
is Miss Douglas 1922"
T. I. SchOfield, contest chair
man, emphasized last night that
only coupons from the Douglas
Daily Dispatch are acceptable in
the Douglas race. Each ballot
must bear at least the name of
the contestant for whom it is cast
and is worthless If mutilated or
incomplete.
After the votes are counted for
the unofficial tabulatiOn each day,
they are placed in a sealed ballot
box at the chamber of commerce
offices. Unless the final tabula-
tiOn is very close indeed there will
be no recount.

The Broadway lane of welcome

at the exposition park coliseum.
There a seating capacity of over

IN CARSON Case
John Moore Samuel Earns
Reputation as Marathon
Witness

TUCSON, Ariz., Sept. 20 R--
Tucson has a marathon witness. He
is John Moore Samuel, a native OF
North Wales, and head of the inveSti-
cation department of the reduction
plant of the Copper Queen branch
of the Phelps Dodge corporation at
Douglas.
Samuel is an expert witness called
by the defense in the celebrated
Carson patent infringement suit now
being tried before Judge William H.
Sawtelle in the United States dis
trict court. The action has been
brought by the Carson Investment
company against the Phelps Dodge
corporation and the Calumet and
Arizona Mining company, and royalty
claims ranging we'll into the millions
are involved.
The learned Welshman took the
stand exactly a week ago tomorrow
morning. He has been testifying
every day of the trial since thai
time-five court days in all, Sunday
and Monday, the latter being law
and motion day being excluded
And at adjournment this afternoon,
Samuel was still going strong" with
the prospect of remaining on the
stand probably two days longer

sci for the defense, completed the
direct examination of Samuel this
morning, cross examination was taken
up by Charles H. Wheeler, of San

Although Tunney remained de-
cided favorite among newspaper
critics, more than 1900 of whom are
gathered here from all parts of the
country as well as foreign lands, the
indication that Dempsey is in trim for
a sensational fight has strengthened
his support This was reflected today
in the narrowing of the betting odds,
which have been hammered down
generally within the past few days TO

The question, "who do you like" is
heard everywhere as advance throngS

make up the record d-breaking assem-
blage of between 10000 and 100000
spectators and a gate that may be
anywhere from $2,50O,0OO to $3,2O0,O00.

to consist of visitors arriving here by

Ayers Story of Execu-

TUCSON, Ariz, Sept. 20 (P-In-
formation, declared to be authoritative
was brought here today by George
o. TIilsinger, Tucson attorney, from
Nogales, Arizona, which tends to
confirm the reported execution OF
Alfonso de la Huerta, which, it is
said, occurred on Thursday on the
international boundary at or near
Nogales
Rumors of De la Huerta's death,
allegedly at the hands of Mexican
federals, have spread along the border
for more than a week. No official
confirmation, however, has been OBJ
tanned at Nogaies, Sonora, or on the
American side, where civil and mill
tary authorities have denied all
knowledge of the affair, as has the
Mexican consul.
Despite the stream of denials, the
r1mor that Alfonso, brother of Adolfo
de la Huerta. former provisional preSi-
dent, had faced a firing squad per-
sisted and today the attorney re-
turned from the boundary with a
report of it's authenticity, which he
declared, comes from sources such
as to remove all doubt of its truth
fitness.
The date of the alleged execution
is uncertain. At. least one day before
it is said to have taken place, the
report of De la Huerta's death was
abroad along the. boundary. Last
Wednesday word that he was in
Nogales, Arizona, was followed by
a search for him which was un-
successful Then came the word that
he had been kidnapped over the line
and shot. The report was imme-
diately and vigorously denied in
Nogales, Sonora.
The report of Alfonso de la Huerta's
death came as a climax to more
than three months activity among the
alleged supporters of his brother, the
former provisional president of Mex
leo. During that time a number
of charges have been filed in the
United States district courts, both
here and in Los Angeles, alleging
conspiracy on the part of De IL
Huerta, Louis Gayou, his secretary
and others to violate the neutrality
laws of the United States.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 20 [P-An-
other outbreak between rowing bands
of bandits and the American marines
in Nicaragua was reported today to
the state department with indications
Isthat it was one of the most serious
since the American occupation.
Although neither the marine corps
nor the navy department had received
official information late today of the
battle, dispatches arriving through
diplomatic channels, declared that one
marine and one Nicaraguan national
guardslnan had been killed and an
other marine wounded. The bandit
losses were placed at 20 killed and $50
injured
The engagement started the dispatch
said, when about 140 members of the
Salgado band, well armed with rifles,
machine guns and bombs, descended
on the garrisono Telpaneac at l q.

tack for four hours before they with

During the fight hand bombs and
dynamite bombs we're used freely by
the bandits while the newly organized
Nicaragua national guard, co-operat-
ing with the marines, was described by
the officer in command as putting up
"a splendid fight as on other occas-
IONS"
The other bandit leader, Sandigo,
has been reported to the navy depart
ment as attempting to rally his forces
in the mountains around the Puerto
Cabezas railroad after his route by
American aviators. Last reports said
he had only about so followers but
appeared to be well supplied with
money and provisions.
