A ruling of Lieutenant Governor Pearson that a concurrence In the house amendment to the Omaha annexation bill would require a constitutional majority Instead of a bare majority caused a call of thd senate this mdfnftg. The motion to concur In the house amendments failed to carry, because hut twenty-one votes could be seen twenty-two being necessary under the ruling. Three republican members, Kiechel, Lahnera and Ruden, voted no and much time w-as spent In an endeavor by their colleagues to make thoin change. Wilson of Frontier was absent, besides the three republicans. Beal, Buhrmun, Gates, Grace, Henry, Robertson, AVeesner and Wink voted no. Repahllcana. Cmucm. Finally republicans caucused In ono end of the chamber and the democrats In the other end, and atrrcement was reached to vote down concurrence, wlt'i the Idea of a conference committee, to be appointed later.

The utch steamer Medea was sunk off Beachey Head this miming by the German submarine U-28. It carried a cargo of oranges'and was bound from Palonlkl for London.

Its name, 'Medea, Amsterdam,' wbb painted In large letters on its sides. The ship's papers were taken by the Germans, who refused t5 return them." LONDON, March 25. Tile British admiralty stated this evening that it thought the German submarine U-29, which recently sank four British and on French steamer In the English channel and damaged tbreeother ves sels, bad been sunk with all hands. The text of the official statement follows: "The admiralty has good reasons to believe that the German subma rine U-29 has been sunk with all hands." The German submarine U-29 dis placed 800 tons and was one of the largest and fastest Of the German undersea bouts. , Two weeks ago the U-29 made a raid off the Scllly Islands and In the channel, sinking four British steam ers and one French steamer and damaging three other vessels. . The submarine was chased by pa trol boats, but It proved too elusive for them and when steamers tried to ram or escape It they found that the submarine was a much faster boat than Us sister craft. The German commander gave the crews of most of the steamers time to leave their vessels and In some cases towed them In lifeboats to pass ing steamers In which the seamen were taken to port.
