Six and Eight Months.

LONDON, March 27.-Another batch Of
suffragettes was sent to prison today
by Judge Robert Wallace, chairman of
the London sessions. at the resumption
of the trial of women accused of win
dow smashing during the raids of March
and March 4. Most of the women

ment, but some of them who had been
previously convicted were given six
months, while one who had been twice
previously convicted had sthe distinction
of getting eight months.
Mrs. Alice Monck-Mason, a grand
mother sixty-eight years old, volubly
protested when she was sentenced
against being released and bound over
to keep the peace for one year.

of another prisoner, who declared that

Indicative of Popular Feeling.
Representative Campbell of Kansas
said:
1T would seem like the primary in New
York and the convention in Indiana was
proof that the people of those two states
are for the denomination and reelection
of the President. The assumption is only
fair that sentiment is similar all over the
country.
Representative Taylor of ONO ex-
pressed the opinion that the decisive re,
suits in Indiana and New York Would
have an excellent effect in the Presl-
dents home state.
Those results demonstrate the fallacy
of the claims of the Roosevelt leaders,
he said, that there is popular demand
for a third term for Col. Roosevelt MT
Taft will be successful in Ohio and else

Delay in Printing Caused.

The only attempt made by any one to
have the names of delegates to the ma
tionaI convention placed at the top OF
the ballot was made by the friends of
Mr. Roosevelt, who appealed to the courts
to have their candidates placed at the
ton of the second column instead of OPP

The courts held against their contention
Thursday. and il was physically. impoS-
sible in the short time remaining for the
printers to turn out and deliver 1,pO,to
ballots for the many election districts In
Greater New York in time for the pri-
maries yesterday. This was unfortunate
in that many of Mr.: Tafts most ardent
supporters were unable 70 vote. But to
assert that the delay hurt one side more
than another, SO far as the proportion
OF the vote goes is absurd.

DEFEATED TO MAKE APPEAL

NEW YORK, March 27.-Delegates to
the republican national convention
favoring the nomination of Theodore
Roosevelt were defeated at yesterdays
New York state primaries in every dis
trict where they opposed candidates
designated by the regular republican
organization and claimed by the fol-
lowers of President Taft. !, The Taft
campaign managers declared today at
least eighty-three of New York's
ninety delegates would go to Chicago
favoring the Presidents denomination.
This estimate includes the four dele
gates at large TO be chosen at the state
convention April 8.
The remaining seven delegates were
designated by the regular district or
CARNATIONS, but conceded to Col.
Roosevelt. Col Roosevelt lost the only
two fights his supporters made up

contested districts in New York city

Will Fight for State Convention.

Col. Roosevelts supporters now are ex-
pected to concentrate their attention On
the state convention, in an effort to pre-
vent the Taft men from sending to Chi
cago an instructed delegation. The PR
mary law in operation yesterday did not
permit specific instruction of the dele
gates at the time they were elected. The
leaders concede that the action of the
New York delegation will be influenced
somewhat by the results in other states
the interval before the New York conven-
ton.
1T can be said from the most conserva-
tive angle that the results point to prac-
tically a solid Taft delegation from New
York." said John w. Hutchinson, jr., di-
rector of the eastern branch of the ma
tional Taft bureau.
Mr.. Hutchinson said that the seven
Roosevelt delegates probably would be
the four chosen from the twentv-fOurth
and twenty fifth districts, which are con-
trolled by National Committeeman Will
liam l.. Ward, City Controller Prender-
CAST of Brooklyn, former Congressman
Lucius n. 1ittauer of the thirtieth dis
trict and Percy c.. Williams of the thirty
second district. Messrs. Prendergast and
Littauer, he said, are strong personal
friends of the colonel, and Mr.. Williams
district was strongly opposed to Taft's
reciprocity stand.
Complaint Of Roosevelt Managers.
The Roosevelt campaign managers con-
fined their statements to declarations re-
garding the confusion that reigned in
New York city from the failure to deliver
an adequate number of ballots. Former
Judge Charles II. Duell, chairman of the
Roosevelt citizens committee. and Chair
man Koenig of the republican county
committee both declared they would ap-
peal to Gov. Dix for a second primary
in New York city.
Roosevelt partisans charged the
failure TO provide ballots in all districts
to the Vaccinations of their opponents
The organization men, on the other
hand, united with the printers in at
tributing the situation to the court
action brought by the Roosevelt forces
in their unsuccessful attempt to have
the names of their delegates printed at
the head Of the ticket. This, the prin-
tiers say. delayed their work a week
and the monumental nature of the task
made it impossible to get enough bal
lots ready in time for the election.
A primary in New York city, it is
estimated, would cost something like
S150.0 600. since ballots costing 10000
would have to be reprinted and the
whole election machinery revived.

Fitz Gerald told such a pathetic story
that the hearts of the local officers
were touched to deep pity, it now ap-
pears that this story was for the most
part fictitious and brands the boy as
more ingenious than truthful. When
j. q. Kilpack the representative OF
the boys and girls aid society of
Portland returned from Pilot Rock
yesterday afternoon, he recognized
the little fellow as a La Grande boy
with whom he had had previous deal
ings and whose mother is still living.
This discovery lead to the acknow-
ledgment by the boy that he had lied
and he explained then that he had
left home because his mother had
whipped him. He will be sent back
to La Grande and will probably be
committed to the aid society from
that city.

Majors Cat Story Goes Rounds.

Major Lee Moorhouse's story boost
ing for the establishment of a cat in
dustry here is going the rounds of
papers all over the United States. Re-
Gently it appeared in the Bingham
ton, New York, Press. 1t will be re-
membered that the major advocated
the procuring of 100000 cats and
100000 rats in order to start the
industry. Each cat he claims will
average ten kittens a year and cat
skins will sell for an average of 80
cents each. The rats, he pointed out,
will multiply four times as fast fed
on the carcasses of the dead cats so
that the industry would be self-sus-
tanning. Major Moorhouse figured
that such an industry would produce
a net profit of $4,000 a day.
