An incident of this kind occurred re-

WOMEN STORM
PARL LAMENT
MOB OF 100000 RESTRAINED
WITH DIFFICULTY BY
LONDON POLICE.
SUFFRkGET ATTEMPT TO
TAKE POSSESSION OF
WESTMINSTER.

London, Oct 1.-THE climax OF
the suffragette campaign was reached
last night when a mob estimated al
100000 hemmed in parliament and
stopped traffic in all streets leading
to Westminster. For more than
three hours the crowds scufied with
police, interfered with theatergoers,
broke windows and disorganized
things generally in the center of Lon
don. A close triple line of police was
drawn around three sides of the
square in front of the parliament
building. The yard within the gates
was swarmed with police and 200
guarded the terrace in the rear
against assault by water, which the
women twice attempted. A small
fleet of police boats also patroled the
Thames approaches.
All the mounted police in London
and suburbs were modified at this
center. The whole police force, to-
gether with cavalry, infantry and mar.
ines, numbering more than 5000, was
kept busy restraining the struggling
masses.
The heroine of the day was Mrs
Travers Symons, formerly secretary
to James Keir Hardie, socialist and in
dependent member of parliament
who reached the bar of commons and
began frantic appeal, but was ejec
ted. Twenty-four suffragettes and
twelve unemployed were arrested
Many persons tainted in the crush
A few were trampIed upon and taken
to hospitals.
