24-Besides the dimculties which it will encounter with the militant progressives within its party ranks, the regular Republican organization in the House of Representatives will find itself somewhat handicapped at the coming session by reason of a scarcity of members experienced in floor combat and the more intimate details of parliamentary procedure. Deaths and voluntary or enforced retirement have removed from the majority side of the House almost the entire group of men who in recent sessions have stood as the bulwark against the onslaughts of the minority. As a result. whoever succeeds to the floor leadership vacated by Frank W. Mondel of Wyoming will And himself in the position of having to meet almost single -handedly the frequent efforts of the Democrats to throw the proverbial monkey-wrench into the House machinery.

Supporting the majority leader no Mann to unravel parliamentary snarls, no Towner to expound learnedly upon the rules. no Walsh ready with musty precedents against this proposal or that. Neither will there be a Stafford, eagerly watchful of every move "across the aisle." nor a Campbell to boldly cross swords with the opposition. There, will. be a different situation on the Democratic side.

Every one of the old group of leaders will be back and they will be augmented by Cordell Hull, chairman of the Democratic National Committee, who has been returned to the House from Tennessee. There will be the resourceful Gerrett of Tennessee. the floor leader: Oldfield of Arkansas, Garner of Texas, who is at his best in a rough and tumble debate: Crisp of Georgia, who is recognized as one of the ablest mentarians to sit in the House in recent years; Byrnes of South Carolina. Byrns of Tennessee and the everalert Blanton of Texas. Mrs.

24 (By the Associated -Troops routed several bandits who attempted today to capture a passenger train on the Peking-Hankow Railway as it was passing through the northern part of Honan Province, northbound. The train backed out of danger under fire. The locomotive was struck by bullets. but no passengers were injured. Traffic has been suspended temporarily.

The raid took place at Hushangcheng, south of Chengehow. It was reminiscent of the Lincheng outrage of last spring, when numerous foreigners were kidnaped from a train. San Francisco, Oct. 24-Banditry is a China and the kidnaping of foreigners is an outstandIng feature of such business, according to Maj. R.

W. Pinger, U. S. who was held captive by bandits in the Shantung Province for 37 days last spring and who has arrived here on the Army transport Grant. "All of the lower classes in Shantung take part in bandit raids occasionally," Major Pinger said.

"Kidnaping of foreigners and holding them for ransom is the only way that some of the coolies have of ohtaining money. the 2.500 who captured our party only a few hundred were professional robbers. The others were simply half wild ex-farmers, who had been given to banditry because of the destruction of their farms." GIRL BANDITS GIVEN LONGER SENTENCES Edna Hobbs and Anna Majewsky Face Judge Second Time Edna Hobbs and Anna Majewsky. the two girl bandits who were convicted of being the brains of a daring holdup and were sentenced on Monday, were recalled yesterday before County Alonzo Mckaughlin and dealers The recall was occasioned a clerical error which gave Edna Hobbs a flat sentence of two years in Auburn prison and Anna Majewsky a commitment to Bedford Reformatory. When the girls were recalled late yesterday afternoon the re-sentence sent Edna Hobbs to prison for a term of from two to five years and Anna Majewsky to one year in the City Prison.

Edna Hobbs looked disconsolate and on the edge of a breakdown as she faced Judge McLaughlin for the second time. She was pale and nervous in the extreme. As the Majewsky girl's sentence was changed to one year in the City Prison, she said to Judge McLaughlin, "Thank you, mister." The girls were convicted of being the accomplices of Joseph Pantelano and Philip robbery De of Falco in Dominick the holdup Notarnecola in the latter's apartment at 1050 Flatbush ave. on the night of July 26. Edna Hobbs is 19 years old and lives at 1125 Flatbush ave.

Anna Majewsky gives her age as 19 and her address as 148 Woodbine although she admitted living with the Hobbs girl for the past year. IRISH DOCK STRIKE IS NEARING AN END Dublin, Oct. 24 The prolonged strike of the Dockers and Transport Workers, which has caused a stagnation of trade and brought suffering to thousands of people, is coming to an end. The Cork dockers, idle for three months, agreed yesterday to resume work forthwith on the terms suggested by the Government--namely a wage reduction of 1 shilling a day and the establishment of a Commission to investigate the cost of living. The Executive Committee of the Transport Workers Union, meeting In Dublin last evening, decided to order all locals to arrange for the resumption of work as soon as possible.

1 GOV. SMITH URGES MAYORS TO HELP STOP COAL GOUGE Suggests Fair -Price Commis- sions in All Cities to Expose Profiteering. Albany, N. Oct. 24-Governor Smith has asked Mayors of cities throughout the State to co-operate with him in appointing fair price coal commissions to focus public attention upon corporations, firms or individuals dealing in coal who may attempt to exact an abnormal profit during the present situation.

Survey of the State has indicated. the Governor said, that there is less fear of a coal shortage than of the increase in price necessitated by the terms of the co coal strike settlement. Pending determination of who rightly shall bear this increase and in the absence of a fuel administrator, the Governor explained, it was deemed advisable to create unofficial agencies to check profiteering by bringing to bear the pressure of publie opinion, and, since State power is lacking to regulate coal prices, at least to provide information upon which the State might base its case should it be necessary to take extraordinary measures to preserve the public health. The Governor suggested that in cities where it is found necessary to combat exorbitant coal prices, the Mayor appoint one commissioner to represent the citizens, another to represent the coal merchants and request him to name a third commissioner, the three to form a fair price coal commission with purely local jurisdiction. The commissions would serve without recompense other than the gratitude of the cities beenfited.

BABY GIRL STOLEN, POSSE CONVINCED Ozark Mountain Homes Now Searched for 3-Year-Old. Waldron, Oct. 24--The suspicion that Pearl Turner, 3-year-old girl for whom 800 men have been searching for three days, was kidnaped and spirited away from her mountain home, is growing among members of the posse, according to leaders of the searching party who returned here after another day of futile search for the child. A squad of men, the posse leaders said, was sent. out to search every house within a radius of 12 miles of the Turner home.

The searchers have abandoned the theory that the child fell a victim to wolves. The kidnapping theory was strengthened by the discovery of small footprints. Members of the posse followed this trail 100 yards, but the tracks disappeared. Men who had gone over the ground several times during the past two days, declared the footprints were not seen before today. POLITICAL NOTES District Attorney Dodd in a speech before the United Retail Grocers last night told of the arrest and conviction of Edward Dougherty, who is now serving from 20 to 40 years in Sing Sing for the murder of John Bruns, groceryman, of Johnson and Jay sts.

10. Register James A. McQuade skidded aroung Brooklyn last night, stopping at several political meetings to talk briefly. The Register urged support of Question No. 1, providing a $2,500 minimum salary for policemen and firemen, as well as the referendum on the soldier bonus.

In pointing out the accomplishments of the Register's office during the past two years of his term, Register McQuade said: "Since taking charge of the Register's office I have been able to turn over $3,500,000 to the City Chamberlain. This huge profit is unprecedented in the history of the office." In spite of the bad weather, County Clerk William E. Kelly kept up his vigorous campaign for r'eelection to the office he now holds by attending six political meetings in various parts of the boro last night. "For the past twenty years," said he, "the Republican party has ofno constructive program to the people, nor has it sponsored any progressive legislation. Curiously enough in this campaign, the disorganized Republican machine of this county has attempted to steal our thunder by coming out and offering a platform in which it says that it stands for a 5-cent fare: the direct primary law: in fact, everything that the Democrats stood for and put in its platform last year at Syracuse." While the Democrats are busy flitting hither and thither to various small meetings the Republicans are staking their chances in the campaign on a series of big rallies.

Oct. 24-Evidence of fraud in the preparation of affidavits offering employment by Canadian farmers to Italian immigrants arriving in New York were reported today by J. A. Robb, Canadian Minister of Immigration, in announcing the first results of the joint investigation by the United States and Canada of a conspiracy whereby hundreds of immigrants have evaded the law by gaining admittance under false pretenses and escaping into the United States on their way to Canada. Both Canadian farmers and' the immigrants, in many cases, were ansolved of blame by Mr.

Robb, who asserted that they were the victims of unscrupulous persons who desired to bring the workers into the country. Individual farmers were found. he said, who had been paid $10 and more apiece for signing from 10 to 50 affidavits in advance. Three hundred Italian immigrants are being held at Hoffman Island, while Canadian and American immigration agents at Ellis Island are taking measures to prevent immigrants from circumventing quota diffculties. One hundred have already been deported for attempting to enter this country by fraudulent means.

"Immigrants are in the habit of starting for Canada from the Grand Central station and dropping off at the 125th st. station," Commissioner Curran said. "Some of them tell us that they are going help with the Canadian harvest, but they are obvito, ously too late for that. Others say that they are going to certain Canadian factories, but when we look up the addresses we find that they have been closed for years. Some of them go as far as Utica and Syracuse, but the majority of them go to 125th st.

and then wander back to the Battery." Asked if he thought hundreds of immigrants were entering Canada. staying for a short time, and then coming back into the United States. defrauding this country out of a large sum in taxes, Commissioner Curran was inclined to think this situation exists. HOME RULE FAVORED BY CITIZENS UNION The Only Constitutional Amendment It Doesn't Oppose. The Citizens Union today told the world that it was opposed to all of the proposed State Constitutional amendments save the one providing for home rule.

The Citizens Union recommends approval of the bond issue for State institutions, but disapproval of the referendum on firemen's and policemen's salaries, and the soldier bonus. In speaking of the proposed amendment to extend the benefits of the Absentee Voter's Law to the inmates of the Soldiers' and Sailors' Home, the Union says that, although the amendment is "relatively unimportant," there seems to be "nO good reason for its adoption." The policemen's and firemen's salary increase is opposed because of the added expense to the city and because it would act as "the entering wedge for a policy of putting up to the voters salary increases and other expenditures for which the Legislature does not wish to take the responsibility." Opposition to the waterpower, development amendment by the Citizens Union because it "wouid endanger the integrity of the State Forest Preserve." The tax limit amendment is disapproved because it "goes much farther than is needed to secure the desired revision of the present method of taxing public utilities and would maintain an artificial basis for debt and tax limitations."

Oct.

He declared he had never seen Ford in his life and could not accept a place on any third party ticket himself be. cause he is a Democrat. GREEK INSURGENTS IN PELOPONNESUS STILL HOLDING OUT Government Warns Them to Yield by Thursday Morning or Suffer the Consequences.

Athens, Oct. 24-While the revolutionary movement inaugurated Monday under the Royalist General Metaxas is declared in Government quarters to have been suppressed in virtually all the important centers of the outbreak, insurgent forces are still holding out in the Peloponnesus. The Government was devoting its attention to these forces today, and sent airplanes, which flew over the Peloponnesian centers where the insurgents were stationed and dropped leaflets containing an ultimatum. This that notified the insurgent leaders if they did not surrender by Thursday morning the Government would use every means in its power to quell the movement.

Mercer Wins Verdict Against Louis Goodman. A stolen kiss was valued at $5,000 today by a jury in Justice May's part of the Supreme Court in the suit brought by Mrs. Alice Mercer, pretty young wife of a Church ave. chiropractor, against Louis Goodman, a married man with a wife and two daughters living on Albemarle terrace. Mrs.

Mercer, who is small, slender, pretty and dark-haired, told the jury that in October of 1921. when she lived in an apartment on the second floor of 930 Flatbush Goodman called her into the hall and kissed her. Goodman denied it. The jury decided that Goodman did kiss Mrs. Mercer without permission and awarded $5,000.

She had asked for $50,000. Goodman's lawyer asked Justice May to set the verdict aside and decision was reserved.

Mr. Edwards was reelected president of the club for the seventh term during his absence in Egypt last spring.

A happy incident of the dinner was the presentation by President who is vice president en of the club, of Edwards to George Albert Wingate, a pendant scale which is a replica of the original bronze one found in Pompelian excavations and which now reposes in the National Museum at Naples. This presentation was in recognition of Surrogate Wingate's services in the ment of the club's affairs during the absence of the president. and also aS significant of the judicial duties of Judge Wingate, who, as surrogate, is protector of the widows' and orphans' welfare.
