 On the floor two members scuf- fled. but were separated by ser geants at arms.
 The frenzied scenes, more ex- aggerated but not unusual since the Kingfish took over the state of Louisiana. followed an early morn- ing session of the senate, which performing much in the manner of coffee ginder, had been wig orously cranked by Senator Long and turned out 26 laws carefully designed to reduce the city of New Orleans to the status of con- quered province with Long as mill itary dictator.

His fish was more than 100 pounds heavier than the previous record one, caught in the North Sea off Great Britain.
 Howell landed the tuna in three hours and 39 minutes. Earlier in the day he hooked one that just missed the record-326 pounds. It lowed his launch for hours while he played it. He has landed five tuna in two weeks.

STATE CENTRAL COMMITTEE NOT
 YET PEACEFUL
Control of That Body Is in DoubtOld Guard
 Is Claiming It

Who will control the new demo- cratic state central committee? :? This is the question foremost in the minds of the factional leaders now that the caucuses are over the "old guard" and ''new guard" have made their tests of strength in several communities. At the present time the 'old guard" claim control of the central com mittee. This claim, though, is not admitted by the new guard"
 The new central committee will be elected at the state conven- ton. Under the party rules the delegates to the state convention from each senaorial district have the power of picking the central committee members.
 As a result of Thursday nights caucuses a number of the districts are now in doubt. In the 18th district the Connery forces were victorious in the caucusing with the result that two "new guard" adherents on the central committee are sure to be displaced and their places given to "old guard" fol- lowers.
 In Manchester, of course, Dr E. G. Dolan is retiring from the cen tral committee. Just who will succeed him in the fourth sena- torial district is not known. If the

Removal of Belongings
 Was Carried Out Dur- ing the Morning

Deputy Sheriff Nicholas Jamele was required to carry out the edict contained in the order of eviction issued from the common pleas court which forced the official to remove a family in the northwestern section of the city from their home shortly after 8 o'clock this morning. The removal wos done despite the illness to an aged man who was required to be removed to hos pital,
 Sheriff Jamele went to the home to-day and served the papers. The removal of furniture and belong ings then began.
 Sheriff Jamele visited the home earlier in the week and was about to put through the eviction order but the welfare department of the city stepped in and asked the sher- if to wait a day or so while att tempts were made for a home for the two people who would be forced into the street.
 The sheriff agreed and waited until to-day. This morning he was required, much to his distate to go through with the court order.
