CANSING AWAITS DATA ON ANCONA| State an.rtmun Officials Believe that Italian Liner Tried to Escape. NO WARNING, SAYS CAPTAIN WASHINGTON, Nov. 13.—S8till ; without definite information con- i serning the circumstances under I B which the Italian line steamer, An- b cona, was sunk, State department officials took no further steps today in the situation. It is believed detalls probably ) Wwill reach here tomorrow. Ambas- 4 sador Thomas Nelson Page's visit to the Italian foreign office is expected to develop at least whether the An- cona was torpedoed without warn- Ing or whether shots were fired at the vessel after it had stopped. Await Definite Dats. Until definite information s available on these points any representations to Austria-Hungary will be withheld. The impression is strong in officlal quarters, based upon press dispatches, that the vessel tried to escape, and that fhose of its passengers who were lost were drowned in the panic that ensued when it was halted. Belated Mensage Comes. NEW YORK, Nov. 12.—A brief belated message reached the agents this after- noon from the line's officials in Naples. It read: ‘“We are sorry to inform you that the Ancona has been sunk.” The message was a disappointment to the agents, who continue to have many inquiries regarding those aboard the An- cona. No Warning, Says Captain. NAPLES, Nov. 12—The owners of the Ancona, sunk by an Austrlan submarine, - have received the report of the captain. 3 He charges that the submarine gave no warning nor afforded those on board a chance to escape. He sald he stopped f his vessel when the first shot was fired. The submarine, he declares, continued to shell the liner and later the lifeboats with the people in them. Court Will See The Film Before Taking Any Action \ Omaha negroes yesterday started suit 4 in district court to enjoin the showing of the moving picture film ‘“The Birth of a Nation,” scheduled to begin Sunday night at the Brandels theater. The plaintiffs nilege the pictures, if shown, will stir up race hatred, which will cause irreparable damage to the 8000 negroes who live in Omaha. The plaintiffs are John A. Willlams, James G. Jewell, G. Wade Obee, Jesse H. Hutton, B. T. Langford, John Broom- field, W. W. Peebles, G. G. Logan, L. E. Britt and George Watson. The Wood- ward & Burgess Theater company and men associated with its management are made defendants. Judge Redick was asked to sign a temporary restraining order, pending a hearing, but asserted he would witness the showing of the film Sunday before taking action. The petition sets forth that the fiim *purports to show scenes of the recon- struction period of United States history, but alleges that the representation fis falve and misleading, in that a negro woman is shown the mistress of a senator of the United States; that negroes are depicted as pushing white men off #ldewalks, engaging in dances and orgles and drinking bouts and terrorizing white persons; that a negro is shown in pursuit of a white girl, and murders of negroes by the Ku Kluk Klan are exhibited.” If the film is shown, it is alleged, riots may be incited, negroes will be discharged from jobs'and will be compelled to move from nelghborhoods where they are now living. That the film has been barred in other cities is presented to the court. THIEF STEALS CLOAK . FROM EXPRESS PACKABE Btealing from express packages on ity delivery wagons was the method adopted by a slippery crook yesterday afternooh in order to gutfit his wife or best girl. A package In the custody of the Adams EXxpress company was rifled of a hand- e cloak, and one in the hands of the ‘Wells-Fargo company was broken open and two expensive hair switches taken. One man committed both ‘larcenies, i about .the same time of day, on busy déwntown streets, according to informa- tion furnished the police. In the first case the man carried & whole shipment { \ of goods from a wagon into the Conti- nental bullding. When Charles Harm, the janiter, came upon him in the act of p searching through the package in a lava- »' tory, the fellow escaped with the cloak, leaving the other goods in the package. —_— Don't Have & Fall Cough.

In setting apart a day for this purpose, I deem it expedient to mention some very important facts for which the people of this state have rea- son to be grateful. “This is an annual custom and I feel that no day: of the year should be more coneclentiously and sincerely observed. Everyone should give thanks to the Great Creator of all things for the bless- ings of health, prosperity and peace with all nations of the earth. “We have reachéd a period in the history of our nation with the education and intelligence of our people, that we are tully qualified to pass In an impas- slonate way upon all questions pertain- Ing to the good' of our country.

UNDERSTANDING IS ON THE WAY Mary Shaw, who will be at the Orpheum next Wweek, voiced the spirit of the wofan suffrage move- ment in an Address last evening in the city hall on ‘‘Bisterhood of Women,” before an audience of Omaha women and a few men. The accomplishments of the act- ress in voice and gesture were added to the understanding which the act- ress must have of men and women and Miss Shaw’s address was charm- ing as well as convincing. The success of the suffrage move- ment she said, is “as inevitable as life.” Humorously she described her own girlhood in Boston. “Both my father and mother were suffragists and at a time when it wds not at all respectanle to be & suffragist.

Right here in Omaha, Bernard McCarthy, aged 19, a freshman in the Creighton col- lege of arts, sustained himself all of last year on 19 cents a day. McCarthy roomed at 520 North Twenty- third street and arranged his menu ac- cording to a book which gave the food and nutritive values of different edibles. His principal fare consisted. of figs, nuts, a bottle of milk and bread. That this diet by no means weakéned him is evi- denced by the fact that McCarthy was one of the star performers on the Creigh- ton Law basket ball team. He is this year attending the University of Montana. CAUGHT TRYING TO ENTER THE P. E. ILER HOME Within ten minutes after a man tried to break into the P, E. Iler home, 1248 South Tenth street, last night, the police emergency squad had scoured the neigh- borhood, arrested the suspect and secured his positive identification by the members of the household. The man arrested gave his name as Otis Singleton, said he lived at the Aetna hotel, and had been a cook at the Hen- shaw hotel for the last three months. He was charged with being a susploious character. As he appeared to be intoxi- cated and did not succeed in entering the house, he probably will not be prose- cuted on a more serious charge. Bteward Richard O’Brien of the hotel sald he had discharged Singleton earlier in the day because he had reported for work while under the influence of liquor.
