WOMAN SUFFRAGE BILL
Tabled AFTER 1T PASSED

ALBANY, -Special.-At alt p. N.
Friday Fred w. hammond, clerk or
the Assembly. finished calling the roll
on the Woman Suffrage bill and an
nOunced that il had passed by q vote
of 80 TO 81.
AT 2:1S the applause and cheers OF
the suffragist lobby died away.
AT 2:1S 2. M. Mrs. Harriet Stanton
Blatch, State boss OF the suffragista.
and a score of voteS-for-wOmen work.
ers finished exchanging fluctuations
and hurried to the Senate, expecting
the bill would be delivered TO the up
per house forthwith for action.
At 2:45 P. M. several assemblymen
who had loyalty supported the suf-
fragist measure left for home, highly
delighted over the victory"
At 2:40 p. M. Mrs. Batch began to
move about the Senate nervously. The
bill had not yet arrived.
At 1850 p. M. an excited young We
man rushed up to Mrs Blatch. en-
claiming: "Oh, Mrs Blatch, they've
gone and reconsidered the vote by
which the suffragist bill passed. The
vote to reconsider has been tabled.
and II looks as though our measuEe
is killed. Hurry to the Assembly.
At 1851 p. M. Mrs. Blatch stormoA
into the Assembly. She found Speak
er Merritt (figuratively) sitting on the
votes for women" bill. From 1:S1
+. NJ. until the hour when the As
sembly adjourned sine die tonight
Mrs Batch and her energetic helpers
worked to overcome the vote OF 80 TO
81 by which the bill was tabled At
no time We're they assured or naa-
jority necessary to take il from the
table.
With nine OF their original votes
lacking, due to the departure OF mem
bers for home, the sunfragists found
themselves in a helpless position.
Votes for women" had been killed
by a parliamentary trick. Later t0-
night Mrs. Batch vowed vengeance on
Speaker Merritt and Assemblyman
Cuvillier, Of New York. who frankly
confessed that he waited untn enough
of the suffragist supporters had de-
parted from the Assembly to put
| through the motion that killed the
bill. Cuviller, whose election was
bitterly opposed by the suffragist
speakers last fall, feels that he has
paid the ladies for the many unmerit-
ed things they said about him because
he wouldn't agree to support their
bill.
Every influence that the women
could command was trained on Speak
er Merritt until the closing hour in
the vain hope that he might release
the bill. The suffragist propaganda
has announced its determination to
invade the Speakers district in st.
Lawrence county with n battery OF
female orators between now and cleo
ton day, intending to bring about his
defeat If they can. The same plan
will be pursued with Mr.. Cuvillier.
Mrs. Blatch denounced Merritt as
grossly unfair" TO The World CORE
spondent, saying "Only a week ago
Mr.. Merritt ruled that seventy-six
votes were necessary to table a mo-
ton TO reconsider the vote by which
a bill had passed. But this was q
, corporation bill i'm which he was In
terested. II makes a difference. ap-

The first explosion was the most
severe of the three. 1t broke some
