MAJION. OUTSUMMONINfl lKI MESSAGE IS IN PREPARATION t>Um\dent Will *olat Out In Detail Hla ri Wishes as to the Tariff Spsclllsal ly ln His Forthcoming Document. |£^MMg*ton, . March !».--President " Wilson issued the formal proclama­ tion Monday convening congress lh extra session at noon April 7. fhe president's pronouncement was brief and followed form closely. It is stated merely that "wher&as. public interest® require" congress would be convened In swttra session by order of the eieca- tlte. Originally Mr. Wilson had fixed April 1 as the date. Representative Un­ derwood, the Democratic majority leader, having informed him that the tariff bills, to which it was agreed con­ gress should hare immediate atten­ tion, would be ready on that date. Mr. Utderwood found, however, that the trays and means committee would need another week to draft the sched­ ules and the date set was selected In deference to the wishes of Leader Underwood and house leaders. The absence of any specific reason Bpr the calling of the extra session is explained by the fact that Mr. Wil­ son's statement Immediately after his _ election declared that he would call an ttftra session to revise the tariff. [President WilBon plans to point out specifically his wishes for the extra ossion in his first message, in prep­ aration. This, it is known from talks the president has had with members • of congress, will outline the adminls-. tration'e Idea of how .the tariff should be revised and just wha£ schedules should be taken up. The belief is general that the entire tnessage will be taken up with a dis­ cussion of the tariff, except the last paragraph or two, which will draw at­ tention to the need of currency legisla­ tion at the earliest possible moment Uid will Indicate the intention of the president to send later a special mes­ sage on that or other subjects which he believes should be considered by the new congress. ^The tariff plan will be submitted test to a caucus and then directly to tile house by the ways aad mean* Committee.

London, March 18.--Ten thousand persons, with copies of the Referee, a Sunday journal, still damp with the printer's ink, in their hands, in which was exposed an' alleged plan on the part of suffragettes to kidnap David Lloyd George, chancellor of the ex­ chequer, mobbed the advocates of equal suffrage who attempted to hold a meeting In Hyde park Sunday. The women were pelted with clods of dirt, oranges and other missiles, and when the police were escorting them from the scene the rioters tore off their hats and cloaks and even struck some of them In the face. For two hours the park, where dexa* onstrations until recently were held in peace, and Oxford street, near by, were the scenes of wildest disorder. . The trouble began when "General** Ml*. Flora Drummond mounted a wagon and started to speak to the great assemblage, which was largely, made up of youths, who had armed themselves with ammunition of vari­ ous descriptions or with trumpets, mouth organs and bells. Her appear­ ance at the front of the platform was the signal for an outburst of deafen­ ing noise and a bombardment of mis­ siles. She hardly had uttered a word when a clod of turf struck her In the mouth. Mrs. Drummond maintained her good nature, smiled at her tormentors and continued her speech amid a veritable tornado of abuse, cat-calls, ragtime choruses and cries of "Go home to your children." For half an hour the crowds shout­ ed. sang and pelted the -suffragette commander-in-chief, whose clothes soon were a mass of mad. At last Mrs. Drummond's speech came to an end and a younger woman took her place. She fared no better, and the police, realizing the danger the wom­ en were in, called upon the chairman t6 close the meeting. The police endeavored to pilot the women to the tube station, but the crowd brushed them aside and dragged the women up and down the street. In the melee one woman's eye was blackened and the clothes of all were torn and disheveled. One of the speakers, a Miss Rogers, collapsed as she was being escorted from the park, and her clothes were on the point of being torn from her when the police succeeded In rescuing the woman. ~ It was a regular stand-up fight be* tween the police and the crowds. $300,000 ROBBERY IN N.
