Officers Story.

oHISSI .
 Cape Bon, Tunis, Nov. 1 o, via Paris, Nov. II, 1920 A. M.-One of the An cona's officers named Salvemini says that towards noon of Monday, Nov. g, he sighted two submarines which, by reason of the steamers siren, a thick fog and the reduced speed of the liner, had been able to approach unobserved.
 The officer declares both subma- rines flew the Austrian colors, but sev- cral other survivors affirm that the flag was struck and replaced by Ger man colors as soon as the liner was sighted.
 The nearest submarine was about 300 feet long and carried three-inch guns on her bow and stern.
 The other submarine drew across the Anconas bow to prevent any attempt to escape. Continuing, the Ancona's officer says:
 Sinking of Liner.
 "At the first shots the captain of the Ancona ordered out the boats. The eighth boat hardly had touched the water when the liner sank by the head, engulfing the remainder of the F passengers ana crew, WnO nad tohcll refuge on the poop deck
 ''The eight boats keeping together steered a southerly course. Alter travelling some distance they sighted a ship with her lights out. The sur vivors lighted flames and the ship ap preached them, but the submarines, who were following, turned their searchlights upon her and. sile abrupt 1 ly changed her course and disappeared l in the night.
 1 Boats Separated.
 "rhe boats then separated, Twenty i six persons were landed at o'clock Tuesday morning on the beach at Sidi l Daoud, on Cape Bon Peninsula, where they were taken in by the European ! inhabitants"
 Salvemini believes the persons who were not in the eight boats must have l perishcd.
 Another boat with the captain of l the Ancona and twenty-eight other persons was picked up this morn ing on zembra Island by the light house tender from Cape Bon.

At this point Mrs. Hillman could not
control her voice, and her husband, who
has been in the Fire Department for 30
years, said in broken tones that "he
wished to God 1t had been him instead
of the boy"
Both the father and son were stationed
at Engine House No. 20. at 4th and
Girard avenue, the father being a stoker.
The little three-year-old boy, John 3d.

wound bled for some time. Chief Murphy
was injured about 4:S0 o'clock. Four hours

So great was the sorrow of Chief
Murphy that he forgot to remove his hat

He turned In a report of the disaster and

REPUBLICAN, OUTLOOK
CHANGED BY DECISION

Continued from PAGE one
inee for Congress in 1914 is not less than
800.
AS result Of the adoption Of this rec
ommendation, the delegation from Ala
bama would be reduced by g. Arkansas
by 3, Florida T. Georgia II, Louisiana, 8,
Mississippi s, New York Q North Caro-
lima s. South Carolina Z, Tennessee 3,
Texas IS, Virginia s, Hawaii 4, Porto
Rico and the Philippine Islands 2.
OF these states Mississippi South Caro-
lima, Louisiana, North Carolina, Alabama,
Virginia and Georgia are directly affected
by the Supreme Court decision and may
be entitled to additional representatives
at the Republican National Convention,
in 1916 while Maryland and oklahoma,
which were to lose no representatives at
the convention, will be entitled to addi-
tional delegates, as they also had grand
father clauses" In their constitutions.
THE OKLAHOMA CASE.
In acting upon the Oklahoma problem,
the Supreme Court held the questioned
provision in the Constitution invalid on
the ground that. although the Constltu-
tion OF the State provided for a litetacy
test for all voters, Il infrlnged upon the
Fifteenth Amendment to the Constitution
OF the United States by setting forth,
on the Objectionable grandfather
clause" condition prerequisite to vot-
ing. The only difference between this
clause and that embodied in the AM
napolls Constitution Is that the latter
substituted a $500 property ownership
qualification for the llteracy test
The Constitution of Oklahoma contains
the typical grandfather clause as
adopted by the eight other Southern
States employing II to dlsenfranchise the
Negro. II follows:
mo person shall be registered as an
elector of this State or be allowed 70 vote
in any election herein, unless he be able
to read and write any section Of tho
Constitution Of the State Of oklahoma;
but no person who was, on January I,
1856. or at any time prior thereto, en-
titled to vote under any form Of govern
rnent, or who at that time resided In
some foreign nation, and no lineal
descendant of such person, shall be de-
MED the right to register and vote be-
cause Of his inability to so read and
write sections Of such constitution"
In handing down the decision annulling
the grandfather clause" Chief Justice
White said:
1--WE are unable to discover how, unless
the prohibition OF the 18th Amendment
were considered the slightest reason was
afforded for basing the classification upon
a period of time prior TO the 18th Amend
ment. Certainly 1t cannot be said that
there was any peculiar necromany in
the time named which engendered at
tributes affecting tine qualification to vote
which would not exist at another and
different period unless the 18th Amend
ment was in view"
