WOMAN SUFFRAGE FIGHT
INTERESTS ALL ENGLAND
House of Commons to Decide
Matter.

London, July 15.-The fight for wo-
man suffrage in England has reached
the crucial stage and the police au-
thorities are gravely making elaborate
preparations to preserve order in the
event the House of Commons tonight
defeats the Shackleton Cancellation
BILL granting the ballot to women.
The threat of the militant suffra>
gettes to start a revolution if the bill
is defeated is accepted seriously by
the police.
The authorities are massing as
many policemen as possible in the
vicinity of the house of Parliament,
ordering them to use no more violence
than is necessary.
To force the police to use untoward
violence would, according to politic>
ians, be a great feather in the caps Of
the women, giving them a battle cry.
A great crowd is expected in the vi
entity of the House tonight when the
vote is taken. The fate of the Shackle-
ton bill is problematical, for it is con-
coded that party lines will not be a
criterion for the vote Members of ali
parties, especially the dominant ones,
are badly divided on the question and
the vote is sure to be taken amid
scenes of disorder.

DETECTIVES on HAND
TO STOP KIDNAPPING

New York, July 15.-Mrs Helen
Kelly Could and Ralph Hill Thomas
were married today ,at the apartments
OF Mrs. Gould, at $40 Park
avenue. Only relatives and a few
intimate friends were present at the
ceremony, which was performed BY
the Rev. DR.. Webster, of the Brick
Presbyterian church.
The bride was given away by her
mother, Mrs. Eugene Kelly, and JOS
eph Thomas, a brother of the bride
groom, acted as best man. Miss Eu-
genia Kelly, who is a pupil at the
Convent of the Sacred Heart, decided
that her religious scruples against
divorce would not permit her to act
as maid of honor, but she did not stay
away from the wedding.
The real excitement of the occasion
was provided by nine detectives, who
stood about the entrance to the apart
ment house from the middle of the
morning until after the departure OF
the bridal couple, and who admitted
that they were there to see that moth
ing happened to the Gould children,
Helen and Dorothy.
The little girls who have been stay
ing at the country place of their aunt.
Miss Helen Gould, at Irvington-on-
the-Hudson since the first of May,
came down in the morning to be
present at their mothers marriage
and to say good bye to her before she
departed on her honeymoon trip.

OR nIQUIT0Us GAME LAW

With tae coming OF yesterday, the
fifteenth day OF July. sportsmen are II
liberty to shoot doves in the state 81
Georgia
The provisions Of the present game
law Of the state allows such condi-
tons to exist. Our lawmakers per-
nit doves to be slaughtered when the
birds are still so young and unsuspee-
ting as 10 be unable TO escape from
even an ordinary gunner.
Those wIo are familiar with the
nature and habits Of this popular game
bird know well tina. there is no other
explanation Of the scarcity of doves in
Georgia than the failure on the part
Of the state legislature to givs the
birds protection. TIE open season in
Georgia is longer than that of any
state in the Union, which is manifestiv
a disgrace TO Georgia. Doves. for in
stance, may be shot legally at any
time between July Is and March Is.
TIE Georgia State Game and Fish
Protective Association has placed the
matter before the lawmakers OF the
state through a bill which was intro
duced at the last session of the legis-
Nature Al that time the general as
sembly failed to remedy matters by
lhe passage of any remedial legisIa-
ton. The question Of more adequate
game protection is still before the leg
islacuTe and it Is hoped that the mem
bers Of the general assembly will see
fit TO come to the rescue Of the fast
disappearing game of the state.

BUSINESS Is GOOD.

There is no better barometer OF
business conditions than the new in
dustries which a city affords.
The beginning of the construction
of the new plant for the sixth fertil-
izer manufacturing company that
Americas boasts is an unmistakab.e
sign of the enterprise of our citi-
zens.
The fact that so many fertilizer
plants find Americas a good place for
the manufacture and distribution OF
their products is indicative of the
broad and diversified farming opera
tions that are being carried on in the
immediate vicinity and which furnish
the very backbone of business prog
ress.
That Americas is the center of an
agricultural section of unusual re-
sources, which are both varied and
practically inexhaustible, is but stat
ing trite and commonplace fact.
There is nothing, however, which will
do more toward a broader develop
ment of all these resources than the
furnishing of high class fertilizers TO
the farmers of this section. Americas
is certainly prepared to do it's full
amount toward contributing to this
end.
1t is not true that the good results
to be gained by the city will end with
the simple exchange of fertilizers by
our manufacturers for the price that
is paid by the consumers. There will
be more benefit than this to be deriv.
ed from the interchange. Many Of
the products that are made with the
aid of fertilizers sent out from Ameri-
Gus will be sent back to the city to be
sold in the local markets, thereby add
ing more to the benefits to be derived
from the city's enterprise in manufac-
turing.

In the olden time when the oracles

subtle means it is related that the
pagan priests often found it difficult to
keep their faces straight. Yet we
find a suspicious circumstance in the
fact that on such occasions all con-
cerned did smile feebly-and that they
said nothing.
There is almost as much secrecy al
Sycamore as there was at the fnterna-
tional conferences at Berlin and Algc.

there is at rural surprise party.
There is as much tiptoelng as there
was at dark-lantern conclave OF
Know Nothings. Even members of the
cabinet here and abroad talk guard
eddy. They do not grin and hold their
tongues. Even the Grand Vfzier, crawl
ing away from the Sublime Porte on
hands and knees, winks and asks his
intimates to meet him around the
corner and hear the news.
Thus far no regulars of the shell,
back variety have appeared at the

SUBMARINE ATTACKS"
THE GUNBOAT CASTINE
Mimic Warfare Like the.
Real Thing.

ProWncetown, Mass, July 14-Tde
gunboat Castine, flagship of the sub
marine flotilla, was rammed by the
submarine Bonita in the manoeuvres
today, and was beached to prevent her
from sinking. No one on board was
injured.
Two of the plates of the Castine
We're loosened. Her dynamo and
boiler compartments between frames
No. 10 and No. 81 are flooded, but
the bulkheads are said to be holding
firm.
The accident happened in a mimic
attack on the Castine by the subma-
rines, the Bonita apparently misjudg-
ing the distance and striking the
gunboat with considerable force. The
men on both boats felt the impact AMI
some were momentarily stunned. The
Bonita escaped with the slight dent
ing of portion of her armor and the
loss of small portion of her rail-
ing.
1le aIJdck on the CaSLlne was en-
tirely unexpected. Several members
of the crew were in swimming when
the Bonita suddenly rose beneath the
gunboat and as she came up scraped
her whole Lengths across the bottom
of the Castine.
Water poured into the lower engine
room and the dynamo room compare
ments Of the Castine. flooding them
and threatening TO extinguish the fires
under the boilers. The doors of the
watertight compartments were imme-
diately closed asd the Cas,ine started
full speed for the shore. She reached
the beach under her own steam and
rested easily in shallow water. ALL
ler crew remain on board.

OUR SUMNER CAPITAL,


The glory Of Reno is fading away
Since they pulled off the champion
scrap,
And TIE eyes Of the nation are turning
TO-DAY
To another red spot on the map;
But the question that every ones ask
ing. alas
Is one that is unanswered still,
For some say its surely at Beverly.
Mass.
And some say at Sycamore Hill.
To Mecca the faithful 90 year after
year,
Their follies and sins to atone
In the Kaaba, the spot to all Massul-
mans dear,
And with reverence kiss the black
stone;
So the Mussulmans here Of political
class
Their duties would likewise fulfill
II they knew whether Mecca is Bev-
erly, Mass,
Or the Kaaba's on Sycamore Hill.
To the Barney stone there, though the
weather be hot,
They would faithfully, cheerfully
toll,
For this is the time the political pot
For the feast is beginning TO boil:
At the forks Of the road some are
waiting TO pass,
While others rush on with a will,
And some take the highway to Bev-
erly, Mass,
And some trail up Sycamore Hill.
The wall of the patriots sound like a
dirge:
'Oh, where is the capital at?"
While they try TO determine if they
Will insurge
Or whether they'd better stand pa
But answer there's none, and they
don't know, alas,
If Mahomet is Teddy or Bill.
Or whether to journey to Beverly,
Mass,
Or go charging up Sycamore Hill.

ALLIANCE With

Democrats Refuse to Sign Com
pact With Regular Re
p.,blicans.
OUTCOME STILL UNCERTAIN
Administration Faction May
Again Wrestlc With 1nsur-
gents for Aid.

Washington. May 19--Beginning the
ment between the Regular Republicans
and the Democrats which would permit
an early vote upon the railroad bill.
the Senate concluded to-day's session
in as great uncertainty as It has been
at any time on that and all other
points. When adjournment was taken
shortly after o'clock there was more
talk of an understanding between the
Regular Republicans and the Insursent
Republicans than between the Regu-
lars and the Democrats.
The first reports Of the day indi-
Gated the strong probability that
large majority OF the Democrats. II
not all of them, would agree to ac-
cept proposition of the Republicans
to strike out the last three sections
or the bill relating to the capitaliza-
ton of railroads This arrangement
was to have carried with II the adop-
ton of an amendment presented by
Senator simmons to prohibit the lower
ing of railroad rates to destroy water
competition, and give place OF adj
vantage to the New Mexico and
Arizona Statehood bill. In return, the
Democrats were expected to expedite
the railroad bill by voting against
most of the amendments offered By
the Insurgents and assist in laying
some Of them on the table.
Refuse to sign.
When this proposition was put In
writing and Senator Johnston. OF Ala
bama. began to circulate 1t on the
minority side OF the chamber. he met
with much opposition. Among those
who refused to sign the compact were
Senators Bacon. Rayner. Frazier. Over
man and Smith, OF South Carolina.
They raised the objection that the
agreement would he construed as
surrender to the "Aldrich Republicans"
With such large detection, the
movers for an agreement practically
decided before the close of the day
to refrain from further effort In that
direction.
The failure to put through this for
nal plan did not. however. nave the
effect of causing complete dlscon-
tinuance of the efforts to bring the
hill TO an early vote. Senator Aldrich.
who was the prime mover in this d.
rection. expressed the opinion that
some arrangement soon would be made
which would insure the passage of the
bill at an early date. Senator Hale.
in an open talk in the Senate, said
that a vote should be reached by the
end of next week In the hope of
bringing these prophesies 10 realiza-
ton the railroad bill was sidetracked
until Monday.
Even in the face Of the failure OF
the proposed Democratic alliance the
Regulars express much confidence In
their ability to get enough Democratic
votes to insure the passage of the bill
after making such concessions as were
specified in the proposed compact, and
some Of the Democrats admit this to be
true
Senator cummins's amendment re-
uuiring that before going into effect
increases in railroad rates shall have
the approval of the Interstate Com
merce Commission was not disposed OF
when the Senate adjourned.
