Baltimore Man Can Have Numiul,

Said-Irimary Date Ratified.

That William y. Atwood, OF BIltl-
more city, can have the Republican
nomination Tor State Comptroller
seemed the consensus of opinion
among the Republicans who assem-
bled yesterday al the Rennert Hotei
for the meeting Of the State Centrai
Committee of their party.
This committee ratified the agree
ment made by Galen L. Taitt. the Re
publican chairman. with the Demo
Gratis fixing September IL as the pr

nix the date for the State Convention
that will follow the primaries.
Mr.. Atwood has been the City Sur
veyor of Baltimore and has always
been a vote-getter in Baltimore.
Friends are urging him 10 enter the
field. but he has not vet given i
definite answer to the appeal.
Neither William p. Jackson, tn
State boss, nor William f. Stone,
the city boss of the Republican or
ganization, attended the gathering.
Moreover, the city Republicans were
generally conspicuous by their alb
sence.
Interest conferred largely in their
attendance, for a GOODNESS has devel-
oped in the Republican camp over
the stand taken by the friends OF Mr..
Stone at the recent session of the
Legislature. Fights were promised
within the Republican camp in Balti-
more city, and it was thought likely
that the contest would center about
stand formerly taken by Mr.. Stone
but now repudiated-that there
should be no annexation without i
referendum.
In letter published yesterday Mr..
Stone takes the position that if the
voters want annexation without a
referendum he will offer no objec
tons. This stand. will, it is thought

ROMANS REPEL
FOE, WITH HEAVY {
GERMAN LOSSES

= Washington, Dec. l4.-Austro-Ger-
man operations aiming at the pene-
tration of the important coastal region
Of the Venetian lagoon in Italy have
been frustrated with heavy losses to
the invaders, official dispatches from
Rome today announced.
Heavy fighting took place at the
Caposile bridgehead, during which
the Austro- Germans, after temporary
\ success, were counter attacked by the
Italians and driven off. They repeated
their attack with frequent successive
waves of massed troops, but were able
to reach only part of the defenses,
from which they eventually were ex-
PEELED by the Italians. The enemy
operations we're favored by excep-
tional weather, which has caused the
Water in the inundated regions to
reach an extremely low mark. f.
| Between the Brenta and Piave riv-
'ers. where the greater Austro-Ger-
man forces are being massed, under
command of General Won Below in
the west and General Krobatin in
the eastern sector, artillery firing is
particularly active.

Bee and Associated Charities
Working Together, Relieve
Many Worthy Cases of
Acute Suffering.

One OF the many letters received
by Mrs &c. w. Doane, general secrc-
tary of the Associated Charities, was
from a child, and it reads as follows
81 would like to have some mittens,
cap and stockings, and my brother
would like the same, for we have a
long ways TO go TO school; and don't
forget kewpie doll for my baby sis
ter, and we would all like a good din
ner. There are four children in our
family. l am II, my sister is 9, |
have brother, 10 and baby sister is
3 years of age. Papa has been sick
and out of work and we are afraid we
won't get anything for Christmas"
There are many cases like that,
commented Mrs. Doane
Many Are Helped.
II is to relieve such cases as much
as possible during the Christmas sea-
son that The Bee and Associated
Charities are cooperating i'll all ef-
fort to spread Christmas cheer in a
practical manner where it is most
needed. The family of seven children
whose mother died this week will be
remembered, and many other un-
fortunate homes will have occasion to
feel that Christmas this year will
mean something to them even in the
face of misfortune.
Hiram Prucha sent a check for SIS
for this relief work. L. 6. Liggett,
308 South Eighteenth street, contribu-
ted SIS, and Mrs. J. M. Zentz sent a
check for 81. Packages of garments
were received from Mrs. w. Randall,
$40 Park avenue, and NJ. L Thomas,
1912 South Twenty-ninth street, all
of which were received at The Bee
Office aud forwarded to the Associa-
ted Charities. ~
Wants Soft Coal Stoves.
Mrs. Doane stated that she can
place to good advantage six soft coal
stoves that are in workable condi-
ton.
And don't forget the shoes for the
Children she added.
Money, garments, shoes, orders for
coal or shoes, or any other forms of
relief, may be sent to Associated
Charities Office, 5l9 Farnam building,
Thirteenth and Farnam streets, or to
The Bee Office.
The Christmas relief work is in
full swing. 1t is not necessary to
wait until Christmas to aid these
families who are in need.
