sUFFRAGETTEs SCORE POINT.
Secure Ear of King Edward I'm Eng
IIsh Fight.

London, July S.-Mrs. Despard and
the contingent Of suffra gettes who have
been Investing the House of Commons
for the past week In the hope Of catch
ing Premier Asquith, have scored
point IN their fight for the contention
that they have a constitutional right
to present a petition. to a responsible
minister OF the crown.
The suffragettes appealed directly to
the King, who informed them that the
Home Secretary was the constitutional
channel OF communication and his
majesty apparently followed this up
with a hint that Mr.. Gladstone would
be advised to receive the women's dep
Utation.
In the face of Premier Asquith's per-
eistent refusal to meet deputation
of suffragettes, it is hardly conceivable
that his lieutenants would consent 10
this course. as he has, without strong
pressure. The suffragettes deputation
will be received by the Home Secretary
this evening.
