DEMOCRATS TO FINISH SLATES Prominent Bosses Will 'An nounce Candidates For Congress-at-Large Domocratie state bosses, while ills appointed at the very lukewarm re ception given to the 'announcement of the presidentlally-approved can didacy of Acting State Chairman Joseph K. Guftey for the Democratic nomination for Governor, intend to lose no time in framing the rest of the slate slate. The fact that the "wet" Democrats, the Old Guard, the perennially, insurgent Democrats and the fellowship of disappointed otlice-seekers have not shown signs of taking to the warpath against (Juftey is regarded throughout tlie state with mingled suspicion and de rision. Incidentally, some unbiased observers say that it is a compli ment to the thoroughness of the re organized machine. While the ma chine may start to squeak in some joints and some of the cogs get out I of whack during the campaign the 1 preliminaries seem to have been run I by the bosses in the most approved I manner. Guffey's candidacy was framed up at Washington, although the bosses learned their lesson from 1914 and did not announce their meeting. They held a talkfest at Philadelphia and barring some strategic silence fol lowing the demand for McCorniiek and the disregard of Guffey as big timber have managed things pretty well thus far. They did the work at i Washington with war-time secrecy and then told the rank and file about it. The rest of the Democratic slate is about due. }t now includes J. Washington Logue, Philadelphia, for Lieutenant Governor: Asher R. Johnson, McKean. for Secretary of Internal Afl'anrs; J. Calvin Strayer, York, and S. R. Tarner, Allegheny, I for Congress-at-Large. Two more i are to be slated. The Prohibitionists having framed their slate in February, the Repub licans are the only ones left and they must go to the primaries. Ow ing to the row in Philadelphia over the vice conditions and attacks the independents are making on the city administration, it looks as though the Vares were going to be busy at home and will not attempt to en dorse a state ticket right away. The Philadelphia Record says to day: "The Republican City Commit tee will hold a meeting Monday afternoon at 2 o'clock in the head quarters at Eleventh and Chestnut streets, at which it is likely that a j complete Congressional, Senatorial i and legislative ticket for the entire city will be indorsed. The state I ticket will not be discussed, accord- j ing to leaders of the Vare faction, but will be taken up at a subsequent j meeting. The committee, it was said j yesterday, would indorse the entire J present Congressional delegation i from Philadelphia for re-election. I There had been rumors that the j Vare forces would oppose Congress man George S. Graham in the Sec ond district, but it was announced yesterday that petitions for Mr. Graham's candidacy were being cir culated by the City Committee." Concerning the Kunkel decision of yesterday tho Philadelphia Press says: "The Town Meeting leaders had not made up their minds last night exactly what the decision meant to them. On the one hand there was the belief that, in estab j lishing them as a party, the decision ! would keep them out of any other ! party, which would mean that they | could not vote in the primaries as j Republicans. On the other hand ! there were those who said that j though the decision created the right i to their own primary, it did not es [ tablish the necessity of their holding ; such primary. This was apparently the majority view, backed up by t,he assertion that as the Town Meeting party was established after the last primary election, its voters were till enrolled a.*. Republicans and there was nobody enrolled as a Town Meet ing party adherent." "SUPER-PATRIOT" APPEARS | All and Comfort to Fnemy, He Con tends. to Support Gcrmnn Wife Philadelphia.

Austria Sought Peace Conference Through Sweden, Says Painleve By Associated Press Paris, April 6.—Former Premier Paul Painleve, after reading the of ficial government's statement con firming Premier Clemenceau's denial that conversations concerning peace had been held between Austria and France, made the following state ment: "During the year 1917 Austria made several attempts to open semi oflleial negotiations with the Entente Allies. Notably in June, 1917, I was advised by the scond bureau that Austria, through the personage of Count Revertata, had several times asked through a Swiss intermediary tor an interview with the oillcers at tached to the second bureau, Major Armand, a distant relative. Alexan | dre Ribot, then premier, {laving been I consulted, Major Armand and Count Revertata met in August, 1917. The matter stopped there and no Inteiv view took place from August until November, when I left office. The j events which occurred afterward j naturally, are unknown to me, but I J presume that after the statement I made by Premier Clemenceau that Count Revertata returned to the j charge."

The seaplane dived at ninety miles an hour. The sub mat Ine attempted to escape by sub merging, but was just awash as the seaplane reached a bombing po sition and released two bombs, one ct which exploded on the conning tower. The seaplane dropped two more bombs into the midst of ho • air bubbles from the collapsed sub marine, which was of the largest , type, carrying two guns." Plane Photographs Submarine The second case; "At dawn ft sea plane sighted a large submarine on the surface with a member of the crpw standing by the gun. The sea p'ane dropped a bomb on the tail of the U-boat and afterwards photo graphed the sinking submarine w.tl' a big hole in its deck. A se?on:l , bomb was dropped close to the saV ■ marine's bow and the U-boat col . lapsed." The third cass: "Two seaplanes ai tacked a large submarine travuling on the surface at fourteen knots, with two men In the conning tower. A bomb was exploded close to the corning tower and the submarine began to sink stern first. A bomb from a second seaplane completed I tins work." Disappears in Oil mul Wreckage' The fourth case: "Three pa:rcl planes sighted a large submarine it was submerging and dropped two bombs close to the conning tower, causing the submarine to turn turtle and disappear In a mass of oil and wreckage." The fifth case: "A seaplane sight ed two submarines close to the sur face and dropped two bombs. One bomb was ineffective, but the other hit the deck fairly amidships. The submarine was hidden by the smoke of the explosion and when the smoke cleared the U-boat was sinking, with both ends in the air" The sixth case: "A seaplane saw the track of a torpedo fired at a merchantman. It dived toward the surface and sighted the black shades of the submarine, well below the surface. It dropped two bombs, which both exploded close to the submarine, resulting In a large quan tity of oil, bubbles and wreckage." The seventh case: "Two seaplanes sighted a U-boat on the surfaee and dropped a bomb each. The first bomb caused a heavy list to the Ü boat which began to sink by the sttrn. The second bomb exploded In the center of the swirl, demolishing the U-boat." Second I tomb Completes Work The eighth case: "A seaplane*! dropped a bomb on a submarine Just ' emerging and the U-boat disappear- f ed with a heavy list to port. The pilot dropped a second bomb Into the swirl and a few minutes later a patch of oil 150 feet long and twelve feet wide appeared on the surface." The ninth case: "A naval airship at midday sighted a suspicious patch of oil and circled it In an effort to ascertain the cause. Suddenly a peri scope broke the surface In the midst of the oil. The airship dropped a j bomb close to the periscope and a series of bubbles began appearing. Indicating that the damaged sub ! marine was moving slowly away un j der the water. Several more bombs were dropped In the path Indicated, until satisfactory evidence was ob tained of the enemy's destruction." The tenth case: "An airship dropped two bombs over a sub marine which was engaged In at- tacking merchantmen. Great patches , of oil and bubbles Indicated severe damage and trawlers made this complete by depth charges." I ,
