Champ Clark, Speaker of the House, reached Washington today and conferred with Democratic leaders regarding the Con gressional election, which, according to the latest unofficial returns, leaves control of the next House in doubt. The Speaker first conferred with Representative Doremus. of Michigan, Iphairman of the Democratic Congres sional Committee, who predicted, de spite unofficial returns, indicating the election of five more Republicans than Democrats, that the final canvass would give the Democrats control and the Speaker would be re-elected. Republican Gain Predicted. ': On the other hand. Representative Woods, of Iowa, chairman of the, Re publican Congressional Committee, in sisted that the complete returns would show Republican gains instead of losses, and that Republicans would dic tate the organization of the House. Representative Doremus declared early in the day at the White House that 212 Democrats and only 211 Re publicans surely had been elected, and that there were nine doubtful districts. He reiterated this later to Speaker Clark, Senator Stone, of Missouri, and other Democratic leaders, enumerating districts which he believed would show Democratic victories on the official count. In the course of the day. how ever, there were no changes in the un official results, now indicating the elec tion of 217 Republicans, 212 Democrats, two Progressives, one Progressive Protectionist, one Independent, one So cialist and one Prohibitionist. Democratic Claims Outlined. Representative Doremus, In his state . ment of doubtful districts, at the in formal conference of party leaders, pre dicted that official returns would re verse the result and show the election of "W. O. Martin, Democrat, over W. F. Martin. Progressive-Protectionist, in Louisiana; Zebulon Weaver, Democrat, over James J. Britt, Republican, in North Carolina; Thomas J. Scully, Democrat, over Robert Carson, Repub lican, in New Jersey; Samuel W. Beakes, Democrat, over Mark R. Ba con, Republican, in Michigan; T. J. Steel, Democrat, over G. C Scott, Re publican, in Iowa, and M. C. Kelly, Pro gressive, over William H. Coleman, Republican, in Pennsylvania. In addition Mr. Doremus insisted that Clyde H. Tavenner, Fourteenth Illinois, apparently defeated by Republicans, ' had an excellent chance of ultimate . 1 success. Mr. Doremus claimed the defeat of , Miss Jeanette Rankin, Republican, in .-. Montana, but tonight received a mes sage from the Democratic candidate conceding Miss Rankin's election by a safe majority. Several Contests Close. Unofficial returns in disputed dis ' trlcts show the election of W. P. Mar tin, of Louisiana, by 91 votes; Britt. North Carolina, by 13; Carson, New Jer , sey, by 11; Bacon, Michigan, by 100; Scott, Iowa, by 73; Coleman. Pennsyl vania, by 20; Francis, Eighteenth New Tork, by 2P56. and Graham, Fourteenth Illinois, by 1529. Republican leaders contend that final results will show the election of A. J. . Barchfeld, Republican, over Guy E. Campbell. Democrat, in the Thirty-sec ond Pennsylvania District, and Robert F. Duer. Republic - over Jesse D. ', Price. Democrat, t:i the First District of Maryland. Announcement of a con . test in the Maryland District was made , today. In tne Thirty-second Pennsyl vania District, on the official count to day, Campbell, Democrat, had made a net gain of 14 votes In two Pittsburg '. wards. Speaker Clark evinced great interest 5n the claims of the Democratic Con gressional chairman and remarked at the close of the conference that the Situation was "very interesting." "The only thing to be done," said the " Speaker, "is to watch the official count In all the districts and wait for the ; final results. Three times in the bis- tory of the Government there have been prolonged contests over the election of a Speaker. Twice it took three months, end once it required two months and a half to elect the Speaker. "The first long fight was in 1851. when Howell Cobb, of Georgia, was elected Speaker after a, fight lasting more than two months, during which '. no party could get a majority. The rights which lasted three months ended in the election of Governor Pennington, of New Jersey, in 1860 and General Banks, of Massachusetts, in 1856.' "The struggle was hot in both these " contests, and they were determined only after the House had adopted a . resolution which provided that only 10 1 wore ballots be taken, and if on the 10th ballot no candidate had a ma. jority the man who had the plurality should be declared elected. It was agreed that enough members would change their votes after the 10th ballot to give the candidate with the plurality the legal majority. "The most interesting of these con tests was that in 1856 John Sherman, Republican, of Ohio, was the leading candidate. Every time Sherman would appear to be near election a member named John B. Clark, of Missouri no Kin of mine a radical secessionist, would denounce Sherman for having recommended an abolitionist book written by a man named Helper. The speeches ended Sherman's chances and Banks finally was elected." W. D. Wood (Rep.), Senator From Washington Couuty. B. P. Cornelia (Rep.).

His value as a legislator is gen erally recognized in the county and he has served with credit upon many im portant committees.

Just at present it is an open secret that he is laying his wires to land the plum of President of the Senate. B. P.

Demo cratic and Republican party leaders announced here tonight at the termina tion of the second day of official can vass of the votes cast at the Presiden tial election November 7 that nothing had been found by the tabulators which would indicate a startling change In the unofficial totals. Rumors of gross irregularities in the conduct of the election and reported errors in totaling- the votes cast for Charles E. Hughes, which made their wav here from the East, were discred' ited by Democrats and Republicans alike, neither organization being of the opinion that the charges wero based on facts. Various reports from different parts of the state tonight seemed to indicate that there would be no split In Call fornia's 13 electoral votes, but no posi tive statement to this effect would be forthcoming, it was said, until the end of the official canvass.

WILSOX MAKES NET GAIX OF 4 0 including iron and steel, hardware. canned goods, dry goods, paper, paints and oils. The increases proposed in the compromise include the heavy fruit and canned good3 traffic from the Coast. The Commission's- action Is in tended as an adjustment of the old inter-mountain rate dispute, but un officially it was said at the Commission that as the increases contemplated amounted to 10 and 25 cents per hun dred pounds and were subject to pro tests by shippers, the Comnrission's ac tion might prove temporary, pending the hearings on the applications un der the fourth section. Original Order Canceled. The fourth section is that part of the interstate commerce law which governs the question of lower rates for long hauls than for hauls to in termediate points. The Commission originally allowed the lower rates to the Coast because of water competition. Spokane and other intermediate cities filed 'long and short-haul applications," asking relief in view of the elimination of Mississippi River boat competition and the closing of the Panama canal Dy slides. The Commission last June re voked the original order and directed that the rates to intermediate points be reduced or to Pacific Coast ter minals be increased. The railroads adopted the letter course, but the pro posed increase in the rates were sus pended until December 30, and by to day's action are canceled. DEALERS TO ABSOIUS ADVANCE Increase Is Xot Expected to Afreet Price to Consumer. J. N. Teal, attorney for the Portland Traffic & Transportation Association, yesterday received the following tele gram relative to the commission's or der from Secretary McGinty. of the Commission: "Commission has authorized cancel lation of all tariffs suspended In in vestigation and suspension docket No. 909, and therefore all hearings in said proceedings are canceled. Hearings on the fourth section applications will stand as set. Please notify all con cerned in your locality." Mr. Teal explained that this probably means that the carriers have asked for authority to cancel tariffs showing ad vanced rates effective September 1 and suspended until December 30. and that they have filed with the Commission new tariffs carrying rates higher, as a rule, bv 10 cents per 100 pounds on carload lots and 25 cents per 100 pounds on less than carload lots. H. E. Lounsbury. general freight icenl for th O.-W. R. & N. Company. and W. D. Skinner, traffic manager for the North Bank road, confirmed the advice that the carriers have arranged to file the tariffs carrying the 10-cent and 25-cent increases on carload and less than carload movements, re KDPctivelv. It is stenerally -understood that the shippers have given the carriers to understand that they will make no protest against this proposed advance. Some of the principal commodities moving -under Schedule C rates will be affected, as , result of this advance, as follows: Iron and steel. Including sheet iron. bars, plates, horseshoes, nails and other rough iron will be ad' vaticed from 55 cents to 65 cents: cot ton piece goods from 90 cents to 1; canned goods from 75 cents to 85 cents; wrsirjnina: oaner and other paper prod ucts from 75 cents to 85 cents: oilcloth. linoleum and carpets, from 75 cents to cents, paints and oils the same. It is not expected that the advance will affect the price to the consumer.

J.. Nov. 14. Repudiation by Louis Cabrera today of a plan of border control that had been agreed upon by two of his colleagues and the three American members again has made doubtful the ability of the Americans on the Mexican-American Joint commission to assist Mexico in its efforts to restore normal conditions along the frontier. Tuo Americans were hopeful tonight that they might yet induce the Mexi cans to agree to what they believe will bo a satisfactory plan for the protec tion of life and property along the boundary, but it was indicated by those in touch with them that further op position, characterized as quibbling, would not long be tolerated. Mexican Mutt Be Tractable. There appeared reason tonight to be lieve that unless the chairman of the Mexican Commission adopted a. more tractable manner, he and his associates would be informed that further con sideration of Mexico's social, economic and military problems must come to an end. The agreement that provided for the withdrawal of the American punitive expedition now in Chihuahua and for a method of dealing with border raid ers in the future was reached yester day, Ignacio Bonlllas and Alberto J. Pani. of the Mexican commission, con curring. Mr. Cabrera, chairman of the Mexican representation, went to Phila delphia, where he conferred with Rafael Nieto. sub-secretary of the De partment of Finance, of which Mr. Ca brera is chief. It was when he re appeared in the commission room to day that he announced his opposition to the details of the plans agreed on. Cabrera la Vehement. The commissioners themselves have remained reticent regarding the un expected opposition by Mr. Cabrera and all have declined to discuss for publi cation the details of the plan agreed on. It is Known, however. Mr. Cabre ra's expression of his dissatisfaction was vehement. That the agreement on the part of the Americans for the withdrawal of the troops did not provide for their immediate retirement was indicated. It stipulated, it is understood, that they should be brought out within a fixed time if within that period the Carranza government had demonstrated its abil ity to guard the border against raid ing bandits.

Henry Morgenthau. treasurer of the Democratic National Committee. In an interview here today, expressed the view that President Wil son will reorganize his Cabinet after March 4 and in filling vacancies will extend some recognition to the West. to which he owes his election. Oregon, having supported Hughes, is not expected to share in the distribu tion of big patronage, but Hugh Wal lace, of Tacoma, who was head of the foreign language bureau at Democratic headquarters, is being prominently mentioned for recognition and some reports Indicate that he may succeed McAdoo as Secretary of the Treasury. Wallace is in high standing with the Administration by reason of his work in the campaign, and is thought to be not only in line for a good appoint ment but is known to be in a. receptive mood. If he does not have a chance for a Cabinet place, he is expected to eet a good diplomatic post. "Bob" Sweeney, of Seattle, now As sistant Secretary of the Interior, also is mentioned for something better, and might profit If Secretary Lane should be appointed to the supreme uencn The indications are that Wallace will rank Sweeney and will get the plum that is accorded the state of Washing ton. California has one member of the Cabinet and a member of the Supreme Court and may not profit in the new distribution. POST PARCELS RESTRICTED Packages for Ono Tcrson Are Lim ited to 20O Pounds.
