Nov. 11 The fart that the democrats will have a ma jority exceeding sixty in the house makes it almost certain that ;he or- ganisiing of the next house will be ol more than ordinary -Interest'. 'Collided '!th this is the feeling that Prcsi dent Taft may call an exH'a session of tlie 62nd congress to enact legisla lion that cannot Jje pushed through during the coming short session. It s I he apprehension that the president may spring an extra session that !ia- started, full blast,' the seakers:iip talk and committee assignments. The veterans who know the irside work ings of the democratic methods of organization say that it Is just pos sible the democrats will follow the example of the republicans this time and select the speaker by the state , delegation scheme and' thus avoid spirited party caucus. It is conceded that Representative Champ Clark, of Missouri, minority leader, who has twice received the caucus nomination for speaker, is the strongest candi date in the field so far and enters the race backed by an organization composed of many of the veterans He is in the lead at present, and if precedent has any influence ought to win, hut the possibility of eombina Hons in the matter of committee as signments and the distribution of the house offices may .'produce a mix-up tin will completely demoralize pres ent prospective program. Mr. Clark is a staunch Bryan man, and the in surgent democrats say that he should make it plain that he will not be guided by the advice of the discard ed leader. On all sides tiie name of Woodrow Wilson is being heralded as the new leader of the democratic par ty, and it is being urged that he be consulted as to the future course of the party. Mr. Clark has expressed himself definitely in favor of a gen eral revision of the tariff as soon as the next congress convenes. In this position he will be supported by a great many of his allies, but his an nouncement, nevertheless, ' has brought forth a storm of disapproval from many leading democrats. President Taft, it Is said, would like I o see several of the measures recommended last season enacted inlo law before the adjournment of the coming session. These measures include amendments to tne Sherman anti-trust law in the matter of in Junctions relating to labor organiza tions and the bill to grant charters to coroorations doing an interstate commerce business, ' together' with a partial parcel post delivery by the postoffice. It is doubtful, howevtr, if these Important measures can be written into the statute books before the end of the session. It is conced ed by the old members that if Presi dent Taft should call an extra session of the 62nd congress to consider these matters in conjunction with certain amendments of several of tlie schedules of the Payne-Aldriclt tariff he would receive full credit- for the legislation and if the tariff act were amended at an extra session it would, perhaps, deter the democrats from an attempt to n"t through the house a general tariff bill, trusting to the hope that the progressive republicans in the senate would join Issue with I hem and complete the work of entire revision of the Payne-Aldricn law. -Members who have put In their ap pearance at the capitol say that in the matter pf committees the question of (Continued on Page Six.; IIEXICO CITY QUIET 3nt There Is Much Feelin Against Americans Big Meeting Planned For Sunday When Boycott of American Goods Will be Inaugurated Stu dents Still Clamorous.

II A fren zied mob of fiOO Mexicans attacked American property here yesterday, destroying it and defying Americans to stay' in the town upon penalty of their lives. With cries of "Down with America" and Death to all Americans the mob surged through the streets plying the torches, throwing clubs and stones. The loss of property will run Into thousands of dollars and the Mexican police stood by while the depredations were going on. They declared that they could not cope with the numbers In the mob.

Texas, Nov. 11 Clashes etween Americans and Mexicans are occurring all along the Mexican bol der today according to reports reach ing this city from various points. At number of places in Texas shots were tired. The iron tier along the Rio Grande was a skirmiBh ground which offered , the lawless element possibility for much violence in a condition of border warfare. The Rangers were moved south ward today so as to be on the ground in case actual hostilities were inaug urated. Many Americans in northern Mex ico have fled across tho border,: ow ing to the menacing attitude adopted toward them by Mexicans. Stories of the anti-American feeling was ear- ied into the lonely regions of Chi huahua by couriers. There are many big international ranches along the border country, where Mexicans and Americans arc employed indiscriminately and it is fetred that the life which has always existed would give way to gun bat- les typical of the old days.
