SUGGEST NATIONAL DELEGATES LINCOLN, Neb.. Jan. 11. (Spe cial.) Information ronies that e nough signatures have been obtained ir tho different parts of the state to cull for a republican mass meeting; to rioject a set of candidate! for dele gates to the national convention to make the meeting assured. The call fixes the date as January 19 and the place at Lincoln and states the pur pose to be to agree upon a delegation that wlll represent the different ele ments of the party in order to bead orf a renewal of a 'factional fight. It Is understood here that tho move ment for this meeting originated In a conference held In Omaha shortly before the holidays at the office or State Chair man Walter A. George, at which were also present former Chalrmnn F m. Currle of Broken Bow, O. W. Wattles of Omaha, X. P. Hanson of Lincoln, anj one or two others and that they also had assurance from ex-Chairman Epper son that he would be with them In the proposition. ' It Is said tne plan contem plates dividing the four delegates-at-large equally between the regulars and the progressives with Wattle, Currle, Kpperson and ex-Mayor I.ve or somo one else from Uncoln on the ticket. The Idea of a harmony delegation has so fur not evoked any special hostility, I although I. D. r:-ans of Kenesnw had a letter In the Journal, protesting against' the names mentioned, for delegates-at-' large and aUKftostlng. another set of! names, almost ull of them bull moosers. It remains to be seen, therefore, whether j the mass meeting will be sufficiently rep- ' reaentallve and Itself harmonious enough to produce a harmony ticket that will spell harmony In the primary.

I A statement given out today hy the semi-official Overseas News agency establishes the fact that K was an Austrian submarine which sank the Italian liner Porto Said in the Mediterranean last month, laus ing the doath of six passengers and c ne member of the crew. It is as s rted the steamship attempted to ram the submarine. The statement follows: ' In reference to the s.n'kmu of the It.ilimi stesmsh.p Porto paid hy sn Ajs-tro-lliiiiKsrlsii submarine: I "Vienna reports thai the s'.bmsrlne orlered tiie steainxhln to s'op.

At j thai Juncture the submarine opened firo ' and hit the steamship, wh'ch uKain came to s halt and lowered boats. "The submarine ceased filing, drew up to the steamship nnd observed that the pet sons In the hosts which hnd put off from Porto Said were malting for the roast without sttem;tlnc to rescue those InitiiltiK In the ,,ra The surm:irine halted the boat containing the captain of the Potto Hold.

They were taken off in n boat from the sub marine and after the wounded persons had been bandaged both were handed over to the captain's boat. "It was not until sfter this had been done that the Porto Paid was torpedoed. Mesnwhlle the submarine, while still giv ing assistance, was shelled by a hostile torpedo boat and a yacht." The rorto Said was torpedoed in the Mediterranean by a submarine, the na tionality of which was not established, althought it was ssld to have flown the Austrian colors.
