.SUFFRAdSTS LATENT
MLITANTs, SAY ANTS
Association Opposed 10 Womans Bal
lot Challenges Sisters to De-
clare Themselves.
DRASTIC EXPRESSIONS QUOTED

That there are outspoken militants
among the suffragists of this country Is
weu known. But the suffragist party OF
the United States owes It to the pubhc
and TO itself to declare definitely whether
It is militant or nonmilitant, or whether.
as We believe. a majority of-its members
favors militancy. but fears to confess its
real beliefs at this time"
Following its statement OF Wednesday
against Mrs. Pankhurst. the English mill
Htant, the National Association Opposed to
Woman Suffrage came out yesterday
through its washington headquarters
with the direct charge that American suf-
fragists are prepared at any moment to
adopt militant tactics.
TN view of what has happened since
Mrs. Pankhurst landed in this country
last Saturday" the statement continues.
'it is the height OF folly for anybody to
deny that there is militancy among the
American suffragists.
For instance, DR.. Anna Howard Shaw,
head of American suffragism, agreed to
preside over the Yankhurst meeting, but
later refused, saying the Pankhurst ex-
nloiters would not guarantee her and her
followers s, 900 of the gate receipts. The
public does not know whether she is
against militancy or not when properly
financed. But she gave this significant
clew to her real attitude last year when
she said:
1--WE hope that we will not come to
militant methods. but I say that, IL we
are played with. made fun OF. and greeted
with supercilious smiles by Congressional
committees we will come to it,
Miss Alice Paul, chairman OF the Com
gressional Union for Woman Suffrage in
Washington. has served term in prison
in England for militancy.

Nothing counts but votes for women.
Acid throwing and bomb-throwing have
their places
Mrs. o. H. p. Belmont, the New York
hostess of Mrs. Pankhurst, said:
Women in America will choose their
own militant methods, and use them, too.

NEW WHARFAGE PLAN
WILL BE ADVANCED
Robert F. Bradbury Would Build
Slips on Anseostia
FIats.

Robert F.. Bradbury. a member of the
Randle Highlands Citizens Association,
yesterday made known a plan to pro-
vide wharfage facilities along the pro-
posed bulkhead line of the Anacostia
/, fats reclamation project This plan will
be laid before. the next meeting OF the
association.
The plan would mean the establish
ment OF several slips along the bulk
head line. some for commercial purposes
others for pleasure boats, and still
others for private use. slFfe lays special
emphasis upon the value OF establishing
! these slips for the accommodation Of COM
mercial vessels.

last night in the local Masonic Hall.
The members were advised OF the series
af visit&tions that the grand officers

At the. next meeting of the Randle

question of asking the Commissioners to
include In their estimates to Congress an
appropriation for drawing plans for a

BREAD REGULATION
URGED In REPORT
Col. William C. Haskell Wants Sale
and Manufacture Of Loaf Gov
erned By Law.

Adoption of a law for the better regula-
ton of the sale and manufacture OF bread
and the development of the scope of the
municipal fish market are the two most
important Recommendations contained In
the last annual report of Col William c.
Haskell. superintendent OF weights,
measures. and markets. The report was
transmitted to the District Commissioners
yesterday.
Revenues from the operation Of the fish
market will add materially to the income
Of the District, COL. Haskell thinks. He
states that IL Congress allows the item
included in their estimates hy the Com
missioners for the establishment Of a
model market and Improvement Of dock
ing facilities on the site Of the present
market, this place should become an i'm
portant distributing center for the sur
rounding country.
, The total revenue Of the office of
weights and measures for the fiscal year
ended June 90 last amounted to a.65f. 50.
The net receipts of the office showed a
gain OF sss76A over those OF the preced-
ing year. This gain was largely owing to
the moneys collected from the fish wharf.

of Public Comfort sta.
tions Ii Delayed.

Objection by residents near Franklin
and Lincoln Parks to the location OF the
new public comfort stations IN course OF
construction In thise reservations neal
the street line instead of in the interior
Of the parks has caused Secretary OF
War Garrison to order suspension OF the
work until he returns from his inspection
Of the Panama Canal. The Secretary will
not return to this city from his tour OF
inspection until November.
The site selected for the station In
Lincoln Park was on the Thirteenth Street
side, just south of the line OF East capi.
tol Street. At the request of residents
Of Thirteenth Street the superintendent
Of public buildings and grounds selected
a site about 100 feet further back in the
park, providing the protestants would
contribute the additional expense en-
tailed, estimated At $50. 1t was objected
that the expense was excessive. Secre-
tary Garrison then ordered the work held
up. Similar action was taken against the
location Of the station in Franklin Park.
