WASHINGTON, Nov. 28. With a popula tion of 5,i!,591 and a gain In the last twi years of almost 17 per cent, as shown by the announcement today of the result of the recent census, Illinois Is assured con tinuance as the third state of the union. Only New York and Pennsylvania outrank It, while Ohio, whlchccuples fourth place falls almost a million below. The increase in Illinois Is somewhat greater than that of any of the middle western states whose population so far have been announced, Michigan showing only a little over 16 per cent, Missouri 6 per cent, Indiana somewhat more than 7 per cent, Kansas 15 per cent, Ohio not quite 15 per cent, and Iowa Indicating a loss. Kven Illinois Is, however, outdistanced by the larger eastern states for which figures have been given. New York, Massachus etts, Connecticut and Rhode Island, all show larger percentages of gain. The announcement for Illinois merely emphasises the fact that the greatest gains are In the cities. Of the 817,041 additions to the population of that state, 486,708 were in Chicago alone, and a study of the- map of the state shows that the principal coun ties In which Increase was Indicated were those containing cities of 10,000 and up wards. Chicago Is shown to. possess about two-fifth of the state population. Forty-nine of the 1U2 counties of the state showed decreases In population during the last ten yean, while twenty other counties showed gains of less than 2,000 during the decade. The Ions in no instance exceeded 3,000. The state should gain at least four con gressmen if the proposed number appor tionment law should be based as at present. More Trouble Expected in Northern Mexico Insurgents in Chihuahua and Duxango Are Well Supplied with Guns and Ammunition. ELPASO. Jex., Nov. 28. According to the staff correspondent of the IJ Paso Herald, who returned here last nlghi, thore is every prospect of further trouble in the affected districts of Chihuahua and IJur ango. They declare that 90 per cent of the natives in that part of Mexico are against the Mas government and that those not openly supporting the revolu tionists are passive. They also state that tha revolutionist army is not made up of peons and bandits, as has been reported, but consists of native railroad employes, farmers, mechanics and others. The In surrectos appear to have plenty of arras and ammunition and seem to have plenty of money behind them. lloth correspondents agree' that the in surrectos have not been conquered, but only driven Into the mountains. Desultory fighting Is expected to continue and there have been several small fights within the )at few days. W. W. King, a resident of Gomes Pal ac.o, declares he saw the bodies of four Mexican soldiers brought In from the mountains near Oomes Palaclo laat Fri day. Confirmation has been received of a report that revolutionise tore up rail road track west of Parral on Thursday and prevented repairs being made. Con firmat'on was also secured of the report of a battle at Manaquipa. near the Mor mon colonies, on Wednesday. Further news Is to the effict that there was fight ing at Rl Valle. between Mnnaqulpa ami the Mormon settlements, and the colonists are sa d to be In gr'-at fear of an attack.

PARLIAMENT, IS DISSOLVED Cabinet Appeals to Country on Propo sition to Limit Veto of Lords. SPEECH FROM THRONE IS BRIEF Only Reference to i'rlala la Corlorlena Expression of Hrgrel that an Agreement Waa Not Reached. LONDON. Nor. 28. The aecond Parlia ment in the reign of the late King Ed ward VII, which met on February last, was dissolved today in pursuance of the program of the liberal government to go before the country on the question of the prerogatives of the House of Lords. The king's speech was notable for its brevity, the only reference to the consti tutional crisis being a colorless expression of regret that the conference between the leaders of the opposing controlling parties had failed of an agreement over the re formation of the upper chamber. The longest and most interesting para graph, which, immediately followed an al lualon to the death of his majesty's father, dealt with the recent arbitration of the J Newfoundland fisheries dispute with the "I confidently hope the questions con nected with the north Atlantic fisheries between Canada and Newfoundland on one hand and with the United States of America on the other, which have been the subject of controversy for nearly a century, have been at last finally settled by the award of The Hague tribunal. It is the cause of special satisfaction that It has been found possible to solve by arbitration problems of auch an Intricate and difficult nature and the award has been received by both sldea in a pplrlt which must tend to increase good will." Theproclamation of dissolution summons a new Parliament to assemble on January 81, 1911. . . . History of Mruaa'e. Today's dissolution of Parliament brings to a crista the supreme struggle now "in progress to limit the legislative powers of the House of Lords anJ thereby permit the elective branch of Parliament, the House of Commons, to exert larger powers in effect ing legislation, more particularly measures ' relating to Irish home rule and the finan cial budgets. The present House of Commons has a ministerial majority of 124, and the present standing of the various elements is as fol lov: Liberals, 275; labor members, 40; na tionalists, 71; Independent nationalists, 11; unionists, 278. The last goaeTal election followed the dissolution of January 10 last. Prior to that the ministerial majority was 334, but as a result of unionist gains In the elec tion the ministerial majority was reduced. The former dissolution was also baaed on the Issue of the House of Lords. OKLAHOMA LAWMAKERS MEET Special Sesalon lo Locate Slate Capl j lal t onvenea In Okla homa City. OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla..
