Candidates In Field
The socialist party of the state must
reorganize to place a list of candidates
on the ballot for the next election ac
cording to an opinion handed down by
Attorney General Brown in response to
an inquiry from Secretary of State Ol
eott. Any political party, under the
state law, must poll x vote of not less
than five per cent of the total vote
cast for congressman in the district. At
the last election the socialist party
cast more thaa five per cent for con
gressman in the f,irst district, in the
second district they had no candidate
and in the third "district polled less
than five per cent of the total vote for
congress.
this would (prohibit the party from
putting candidates in the field except
savs the socialists may re organize and
as a new political pirty may nominate
candidates by circuWiting ptcitions
which shall contain the required per
cent of signers.

AMERICAN WOMAN 1DEAD
By Claries V. Stewart.
. (Tnited Press staff correspondent.')
London, Mar. 27. At least one Am
erican appnrentily perished when tin
channel steamer Sussex was damnged by
an explosion. The United States em
bassy announced today that a careful
check of survivors showed Miss Cal
liope Anstn:ua Fennell, of New York,
missing. The Baldwin family of Pliilc
delphia, is safe at Boulogne. Twelve
bodies of passengers unci sailors have
been recovered. Seventy persons are
still missing. Both the United. States
embassy and the British admiralty are
continuing their investigation. No state
nient has been made as yet by the Bri
tish naval authorities, although the
French admiralty is positivo that the
Sussex was torpedoed. A majority of
the survivors arc confident, that the ex
plosion was caused by a submarine at
tnck. London papers are in accord thai
the Sussex was torpedoed, and are spec
ulating as to the action of the United
State.
Tho Chronicle said: "Obviously no
more direct challenge, was ever handed
another nation than Germany has
launched toward the United States.
Whether the United States picks it up
or lets it lie, all belligerents will know
with a clearness hitherto lacking, just
where the greatest neutral stands.
Duplication of survivors lists made it
probable today that tho toll of lite In :t
might be more than 100. George Crock
er is the only American survivor at
Dover reported in n serious Condition.
The others suffered from shock.
