WHY WOMEN CANNOT VOTE
The Recent Decision by Chief Justice
Jones of Washington Territory.


TACOMA, W. T., August 16.-The full
text of Chief Justice Jones decision that
women cannot vote in this Territory has
been given to the public. This decision
is based entirely upon the construction of
the intent of Congress in comforting leg
islatiye powers upon the Secretary at the
time OF its organization. particularly as
to the intended meaning of the word
" Citizen as used by Congress in defn-
ing the qualifications of electors The
Chief Justice is OF opinion that { ongress
clearly intended the right Of suffrage to
be given 10 male citizens" only.
The Chief Justice calls attention to the
fact that the Congressional act creating
the Territory provides that the Terri
tories shall send one delegate to Congress.
the only limitation being that such dele.
gate shall be a citizen" The court holds
that il was certainly not within the in
tent OF Congress that a woman should
go 10 the House OF Representatives as
delegate. This fact is held by the court
to ST engthen its position in its conslruc-
tion OF the intended meaning of the word
"citiZen."

following resolutions:
whereas we the representatives of six
teen out OF the nineteen States represen

of that convention by heelcrs from New

spective States: therefore,
Resolved, That we declare that the ac-
tion of that convention is no more enti-
tied to the support or respect Of the
American party than IL il had been held
at some underground ward meeting in
New York, the cost of which was de-
frayed by some person interested in dis
honoring the American party.
Resolved, That we apply this denun-
citation 10 the New York delegation, not
individually. but collectively, and in no
way TO the delegations from other States,
who felt forced to retain ther seats.
Resolved, That we reiterate the princi-
piles of the American party whose repre-.
sentatiyes we were and are, and that we
deplore the fact that we were unable to se1
cure harmonious convention and to
nominate American candidates.
General Negley of Pittsburg was nomi-

HYPNOTIC SUGGESTION.
An Operator Makes One of His Subj cots
 Turn Thief and Burglar.

Turn Thief and Burglar.
 May one who is free from vicious tenden cies be made to commit crime, while hypnotized, which he or she, with full command of faculties, would regard with abhorrence? Experiments both here and abroad have abundantly illustrated the wonderful power pos sessed by the operator over his sub ject; the latter wholly subordinating his will-acting, speaking, and. to all appearances, even thinking and seeing as directed. A recent investigator, M. w. A. Croffut, would seem to have gone step further on the road to practical accomplishment by inducing his subject to actually rob ds house; d encouragement, of course, the agent, however, having no knowledge of this This agent, whom Mr. Croffut de- scribes, in recent paper, as of known probity, set out, while in a hypnotic state, to rob neighboring house, which, together with the means of entrance, was fully de- scribed to him; being told that heap of gold was to be found in a certain apartment. The operators assistant accompanying him declares that, after gathering up the imaginary treasure and putting it in the bag pro- vided him, the subject proceeded to purloin other articles, so thoroughly aroused was his cupidity. and getting safely out evinced an inclination to fly with the treasure instead of returning and dividing with the operator, as was agreed. Another subject, under similar influence, took a pistol, supposed to be but not really loaded, and, aiming it at his heart, as directed, pulled the trigger. If from these and similar investigations it should become ap- parent that all manner of real crimes may be committed by innocent per sons while in this hypnotic or mesmeric condition, and if the vicious, having such power as that evidently possessed by MT. Croffut and others, should actually employ the un- suspecting and unsuspected as their agents, how would society protect itselfp How could the innocent agents be distinguished from those not Under such influence, but setting up the claim when caught only to avoid punish ment? A really honest clerk, with the keys of his employers office and safe in his possession, might be made, should he fall under such influence, to commit burglary; the heir to an estate might be induced to kill him. self; trustworthy servant to commit murder or arson.
 These are interesting psychological questions; questions, it may be said, which are by no means beneath the dignity of science 50 inquire into Scientific American.
