The Women Can't Vote.

LANSING, MICH, Oct. A.-The Su-
preme Court this morning handed down
a decision on the womans suffrage law,
passed by the last Legislature, permitting
women 10 vote at municipal elections.
The court declares that the law IS utterly
unconstitutional and void.
The proceedings were instituted In De-
troit I'm the name Of Mary Stewart Cof-
I'm et al, TO test the validity Of the act
granting women the right 20 vote IN
school. village and city elections In the
State. The court holds that the Con-
stltution does not extend the franchise
10 women, that the Legislature cannot
confer the right Of franchise on them,
ard therefore the law granting women
electorate provisions is unconstitutional.
The court Is unanimous In It's decision.
