WINTER SESSIONS
Election Reform and New

By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
LONDON, October 28.-King George,
recovered from his long illness, con-
vened Parliament for its Winter ses-
sions today in a ceremonious setting,
made doubly significant by his return
to functions of state after months spent
abed and in recuperation.
The House of Commons and the
Lords met in combined session at noon
to listen to his speech from the throne,
which he read in firm, resonant voice
The reading occupied only fivA minutes
both Lords and Commons adjourning
Immediately thereafter, while King
George and Queen Mary returned with
all the pageantry of their arrival at
Westminster to Buckingham Palace.
The Lords adjournment was until
AIS pm. but the Commons was to
meet again at 8 pm, when debate on
an address in reply to the Kings speech
was due to begin. Two features of the
speech from the throne were accepted
as highly controversial, projected cleo
toral reform and indications of an at
tempt to nullify the law which made
the general strike of 1926 illegal and
would tend to prevent other strikes of
the nature.
Seen Bid for Power.
The projected electoral reform rep
resents definite bid of the Macdonald
Ministry to remain in Office as long as
possible since it is measure long
sought by the Liberal party. Although
Mr. Macdonald and his ministers mere
ly mention an electoral reform measure
will be submitted to Parliament, it was
understood the measure will include the
Liberal proportional representation
scheme. Such a scheme would give
them representation in the. Commons
far in excess of their present member
ship, which is united by reason of three
corner constituency races, in which, al
though the Liberals always poll a large
vote, they usually are behind either
Conservatives or LaboriteS, or both.
The Kings message, drawn up for
him by his government, headed by
Prime Minister Macdonald, is in part
as follows:
II hope soon to welcome representa-
tives Of the princes and people of India
who are about to join with members
of all parties in both houses of Par
lament to consider the future conSti-
tutional. position of India.
II follow with grave concern and
sympathy continuance of heavy I'M

nately continues to dominate the mar
ketS of the world, and the accompany
ing restriction of international trade is
felt with particular severity in those

RICHMOND, Va, October 28.-Mis-
demeanor charges against Harry Dick
enson and his brother, N. H. Dickinson,
in connection with HaTy's elopement
last July with Mary Frances McCIenny,

Atlanta Refused
Order to Change
Population Count
SiddOns Declares Court
Lacks Authority to Com
pei Steuart to Act.

BY the Associated Press.
Atlanta failed today in the District
of Columbia Supreme Court in its effort
to have the Census Bureau publish its
population as 360692.
Director Steuart of the bureau had
given the population of the borough
OF Atlanta as 270, 1867. The city brought
an action to have included several COM
munities and municipalities which were
included in Greater Atlanta by an act Of
the Georgia Legislature in 1929.
In his opinion Justice Siddons said
that in view of the facts he did not
think the court had the authority to
compel Director Steuart to fix the
higher figure. He said the city and
those who brought suit with it may
have misconceived their remedy, but
with that the court has no concern in
deciding this case"
For the reasons thus stated" he
added, "the rule issued herein must be
discharged and the petition of the
REALTORS dismissed"

COAL DAMP AND DEBRIS
BLOCK RELIEF EFFORTS
Cause of Blast Is Undetermined.
Shock Is Described as EX-

MckLESTER. Okla, october %
Gas today drove rescue workers from
the lower levels of the Wheatley No. 4
coal mine, tomb of 30 miners since an
explosion last night, and officials viz
tually abandoned hope that any of the
trapped men would be found alive,
One man, William Donnelly, was
killed at the head of the mine by the
blast. Bodies of four trapped miners
were sighted on the sixteenth level OF
the mine.
Several rescue workers were overcome
by the gas, known as coal damp, and
one. John Moore, was carried from the
mine. =
Damp Routs Rescuers.
The damp sent rescuers, numbering
about so, back to the tenth level OF
the mine. where ventilation was good.
Efforts were being made to obtain brat
tice cloth to curtain off mine entries
and aid ventilation lower down.
Workers estimated it would require
six men from five to six hours to carry
one body from the lower levels, because
of the mass Of debris to be traversed
1t was impossible to send a car into the
affected regions.
Miller d. Hay, chief mine inspector
who entered the workings on his arrival
here early today from Ada, Okla, was
authority for the statement there was
little hope for the men trapped in the
sixteenth, seventeenth and eighteenth
levels.
The explosion. occurring near the
mouth of the mine, which slopes back
some 5000 feet into the ground, choked
the shaft with rocks and timberS for
an undetermined distance.
Blast Exceedingly Violent.
The mine. although on the grounds
of the State prison here, is worked by
civilian labor.
The blast, of unknown cause, was eX-
ceedingly violent Donnelly, who was
working on the surface, was caught. by
its force and hurled against the tipple.
which was damaged. The explosion
was heard 2 miles away in, McAlester.
A group of McAlester American
Legion members did volunteer police
duty about the mine. There was little
demonstration, relatives and friends of
the entombed men, for the most part
SileIlJly dDOuJ. y,
women could be heard sobbing.
w. G. Robbins, district mine inspector
led rescue attempts.
All But Four Married.
A few more hopeful watchers at the
mine said there was bare possibility
of some of the trapped men surviving
if they had kept their ledge doors
closed. The force of a mine explosion
is upward they said, and indications
were that the blast occurred between
the twelfth and tenth levels.
No one would conjecture as to the
cause of the explosion, which crushed
Donnelly against wooded struts at the
mine head, ripped sheet iron housings
off the top of the shaft and shot flames
200 feet into the air, casting a ref1ec-
ton on the gray walls of the State
penitentiary, half mile away.
All except four of the trapped miners
are married. Most of them have
families.

TIMES SQUARE SHOP.
OF 100000.
Two Robbers Force Manager
to Phone for Combination
and Open Safe.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, October 28-Two self
assured robbers posing as telegraph
messengers gained entrance to a
Broadway jewelry store near Times
Square two hours before it opened for
business today, waited until the clerical
force arrived, then made the manager
open the safe and escaped with jewelry
valued at 100000.
They cowed a negro Waterman with
pistols before any one else came then
as the clerks arrived lined them up
against the wall beside the Waterman.
Half an hour later the manager came
and confessed that he knew the COM
bination of the safe.
Combination Forgotten.
But the excitement drove the combi-
nation from his mind and his hands
trembled SO that he could not open the
vault One of the robbers, pressing a
gun against the managers side. forced
him to telephone M. Rosenthal, pro-
prietor of the store, who furnished the
combination without asking questions.
Then the robbers opened the safe,
lifted out the trays of gems and escaped
in an automobile.
Store Staff Tied.
The store is that of M Rosenthal &
Sons, 1887 Broadway.
Before they left the robbers took time
to truss up clerks and manager with
picture wire. Then they took a key
from the Waterman, locked the door
after them and walked casually to their
car. carrying the loot in a satchel.
A few minutes later one of the clerks
freed himself and sounded the burglar
siren. 1t brought 10 traffic policemen
and a patrol wagon loaded with re-
Inducements. In Is minutes crowd
of several thousand had gathered in
front of the store, but there was no clue
to the identity of the robbers.

The apparent mystery which involved
the official list of 934 speakeasies raided
10y the Washington police on which the
Crusaders, an anti-dry organization
based its celebrated "speakeaSy map Of
Washington" was cleared up today when
police officials revealed that the list had
been requested by the Department OF

A police department clerk, it was said,
obtained the list from the Crusaders,
brought it up to date, and turned it over
to the Justice Department. The list
was originally compiled by the police.
and showed the places raided between
the period between September, 1929
and April 1880.
The Department of Justice, has not
disclosed for what purpose it intends
to use the list. 1t is believed, however,
it is planning study of the liquor
situation in Washington
