Delegates from Indiana, Kansas, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Michigan, Missouri, New Mexico, New York, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Pennsyl vania, South Dakota, Washington and West Virginia supported the con vention resolution. The committer also decided to change the basis of representation In national conventions subject to ratification by a referendum vote In state conventions or by primaries. The resolution also declared that the committee is empowered and should reduce the representation of south ern states In national convention. Washington, Dec. 16. Southern ers present at the. dinner given the republican national committeemen lust night by Chairman Charles D. Hllles claimed today to have won a victory In the proposal to reduce the delegates from southern states to na tional conventions. Their claim was based on a proposal that the com mittee arrange for voters to ratify whatever action In this connection may be taken at a proposed extra ordinary convention of republicans. Action on the proposal to call an ex traordinary convention of republicans will be taken, it was believed, at to day s formal meeting. It the con vention In called, the proposal to change the basis of representation at national conventions, which would lead to a reduction In the proportion of delegates from southern states, will come up. This percentage, ac cording to the present plan of ap- I portioning delegates, would be based on party votes cast in various states. But it also Is planned that state party conventions In states where two thirds of the entire republican vote skits included In the entertainment at last Thursday's annual banquet ot the Caribou Society, which gave so much offense to President Wilson on account ot ridicule Indulged in at the expense of the army. In the secretary's demand, those who had charge ot the entertainment! turned over copies ot all manuscript used In connection with the program, so that there would be no difficulty In determining who was responsible. No secret was made of the fact that the army head wants to see whether the offenders can be punished. The society consists of army and navy officers who have served In the, Philippines. Secretary of the Navy Daniels also was conducting an in- i vestlgatica In his department, though just what steps he has taken he did not make public. To say that the officers whose con duct is being looked Into are upset is to express It too mildly. Anger as well as anxiety was voiced by many of them. That their entertainment would be resented seemed never to have occurred to any ot them. Pre sident Wilson's order for an investi gation, with a view to possible repri mands, and his withdrawal from his recently accepted honorary member ship in the society fell like a thunder bolt.

San Marino, the smallest, but none the less one of the most obstreperous republics in the world, is again at loggerheads with Italy. Recently the tiny republic passed a law obnoxious to the Va tican.

Secretary Bryan today put it up definitely to General Carranza to protect foreign ers and foreign property In rebel ter ritory in Mexico. f Of course It was to conditions in Chihuahua City that especial refer ence was made. Carranza was given plainly to understand that the Wash ington administration looks to him to keep General Villa in order. If Villa cannot be made to obey, It was said Carranza probably will lose all chance of American support when President Huerta is driven out of office.
