Suffrage Leader Released from
English Jail in Fear She
Might Die.
TAKEN TO HOSPITAL
Head Of Militants Ate No Food for
Nine Days-Violence to
Continue.
TAKEN TO HOSPITAL
Ennneline

London. April 1c-Mrs. Emmeline
Pankhurst. president OF the women $
social and political union and leader OF
the militant suffragettes, who was sem
fenced to three years on April 3, for
melting women to blow up the home OF
Chancellor David Lloyd-George with
bombs, was released from Holloway
Jail today after serving nine days of
her sentence.
Mrs. Pankhurst's release was brought
about by a physical collapse brought on
by hunger strike" Not a mouth
full of solid food passed the lips OF the
famous militant leader during her stay
in Holloway Jail, although she drank
water in large quantities. During the
first week of her fast. Mrs. Pankhurst
bore up so well under her abstinence
from food that the prison doctors be-
lieved that she had carried food tablets
into jail secretly and was sustaining
herself upon them.
Mrs. Pankhurst was very weak when
she was liberated from the prison. and
her friends fear that she will suffer
serious consequences.
Mrs. Pankhurst was sentenced by JUS
tice Lush. in old Bailey Court, on April
3, and Immediately was taken to Hollo-
way Jail.
Taken to Hospital.
Sylvia Pankhurst, daughter of the
militant leader, was notified of her
mothers release and had Mrs. Pank-
hurst removed to a private nursing
home.
MY mother is in very bad health"
declared Sylvia Pankhurst. ''She was
subjected to brutal treatment in prison
by physicians and wardresses,t who at
tempted to feed her forcibly when she
refused to eat voluntarily. She is very
weak, and we fear that she will suffer
permanently from the treatment she has
undergone"
News Of the release of the leader OF
1.-THE cause" brought great rejoicing to
the headquarters Of the Women's Social
and Political Union. However, ii was
made clear that violence would not
cease. Lieutenants of Mrs Pankhurst
declared that militant methods would
be pursued until the government yielded
to the pressure and granted the fran
chise to women.
Phyllis Brady and Millicent Dean, two
suffragettes arrested in Mitcham on
April for carrying implements of de-
struction upon their persons. were ar
raigned today, and a sentence of six
months Imprisonment imposed on each.
When arraigned Phyllis Brady insisted
her name was miss Durell.' Quanti-
ties of patent fire lighters, kerosene,
gunpowder and other articles were found
in the possession of the girls.
Militants got busy throughout the day
at London, where they poured acid into
the letter slot in the postoff1ce, de-
stroying a large quantity of mail.

longer. She told the nurses she climbed
on her bed, put her smouth over the jet
and then turned on the gas.
Corrine will be able to return home to-
day. Her parents are at loss to un-
derstand her action. saying that she had
never before revolted against home dis
