London, oct. 14.-Several Hundred
suffragettes, screaming, with hair and
clothes dlshevelled, after last nights
rioting, today made a concerted rush
upon the police wagon in which sever
al women were being taken to Jail.
In a fight with the police later,
several wom/l were injured as they
stormed the court where the suffra-
gettes were arraigned as prisoners
When placed in the police wagon a
great crowd Of women attacked the
wagon. seized the horses and held
them while others climbed into the
wagon under the blows of police
mems clubs. The mounted police fl
nally put the women to flight after
swinging their clubs vigorously.
All the prisoners could have gone
free II they had promised they would
never participate again in a demon
stration. but they refused to promise.
Fourteen were sentenced to Jail from
one to two months and other cases
were postponed.

on a tour of inspection which may
result in a new o. r. & n. depot for
Pendleton high officials of the o. r.
& y. and Southern Pacific system Wis
tied Pendleton last evening.
The inspection proper was the work
of the Southern Pacific men who were
in the private car California. The
party included General Superinten-
dent Buckley, Division Engineer VIM.
Bollins, and other officials of the
Hartman lines. among whom were
said to be Erastus Young, general
auditor, and Master Mechanic Gra-
ham of the Southern Pacific.
The inspectors went carefully over
the buildings of the local station and
II Is rumored that their report will
contain some recommendation as to
new depot. They also carefully in
spected the yards and the equipment
of the road here.
1t is said that during the visit the
officials mentioned that plans for 4
new depot for Pendleton We're already
drawn and that there might be some
thing in Pendleton's Christmas stock
ing that would make noise like a
new depot.
on the other hand it was suggest
ed possibly that only such a blessing
in disguise as befell Wallula Monday
night might bring to this city an ade-
quate depot, because. it is reported,
the business and profits of the o. r.
& y. during the past year have fall
len off under the recent panic to so
great an extent that few except the
most essential improvements are be-
ing made under the present policy.
This is said to be the reason that
the depot for this city has been held
up, but the railroad men look for less
after the election and 1t
is thought that by the first of the
year business will justify such an ex-
penditure as would be necessary for
he depot
