sent TO PRISON
Large Number Refuses To Pay Fines
For Attacking House of Parlia-
mellt and Homes of Officials.

LONDON. Nov. 24.-Scores OF suf-
frsgettes are going to jail today,
A suffragette in jail is dangerous
for the English government, for the
militant woman have an unhappy
habit OF starving themselves when
forced to remain behind prison bars.
MAGISTRATE De Rutzen. sitting In the
Bow-st. police court, was kept busy
All day trying the hundreds or
suifragettes who participated In the
various attacks on the house OF par
lament, the homes OF several or the
ministers, Premier Asquith and other
political leaders during the past week.
The magistrate imposed average
Hines of FIVE pounds ($25) upon the wo-
men and not one OF them would pay
the fine. Every one chose prison In
stead.
The fear of The government against
action OF the women in prison was
shown when the prosecution, acting
under orders apparently from the
Home ONCE, insisted that no women
should be found guilty who was not
shown actually to have taken part
in the violence. In spite of this plea
on the part OF the governments
prosecutors, Magistrate De Rutzen in
sisted on imposing fines, declaring
that mercy merely encouraged the wo-
men TO fresh riots.
The Home Once has not forgotten
the last batch of suffragettes sent 10
Jail and the scandal they caused.
They refused to eat. and the prison
oficials used stomach pumps and 9th
er mechanical means TO force food
into them. Several women nearly
died. All had to be psrdoned by the
home secretary.
