FOR MORAL TURPITUOE
ENGLISH sUFFRAcETTE WAS
CONVICTED OF CONSPIRACY
TO COMMIT ARSON
AN AMPLE BOND OFFERED
MRS. o. H. P. BELMONT AGREES
TO PUT UP 100000 If
NECESSARY

New York, Oct. 49,. Mrs. Emmelyn
Pankhurst, the English militant suf-
Efragette leader who arrived here to-
day for a lecture tour, was ordered
deported by the immigration authori-
ties within little less than three
hours after the vessel on which she
came was docked
The special board Of inquiry which
decided her case voted not to admit
her to the country under bond, but to
send her back to France forthwith.
Mrs. Pankhursts lawyer, Herbert
Reeves, announced his intention Of
appealing the case Immediately to
Commissioner General Caminetti.
Pending decision by Caminetti, Mr..
Reeves said he would seek to have
his client admitted to this country
under bond SO that she may be able
to fulfill her engagement to speak at
Madison Square Garaen tomorrow
night.
Mrs 0. H. P. Belmont, the New
York woman suffrage leader, who.
vas to have been AIRS. PanlShurst's
hest, was prepared % give bond up to
sl9o'Qa0 for Mra Pankhurst's good
issIe zes8ca
Under ruling Of ths special board
she will not be permitted to do SO,
and Mrs. Pankhurst must remain at
Ellis island until deported, unless the
boards findings are reversed by the
authorities at Washington.
Mrs. Pankhurst's deportion was
ordered under Section 2 Of the immi-
grafton laws. This section provides
for the exclusion Of persons convict |
ed abroad of crime or crimes in
volving moral turpitude. The board
held that Mrs. Pankhurst's conviction
in England of conspiracy to commit
arson brought her within this class.
The militant leaders case moved with
unexceleld celebrity she was inter
rogated by immigration inspectors on
the liner Province on which she had
made the trip from Havre, was de-
tanned but a few minutes aboard the
vessel when it docked, was rushed in
a special rig to the detention station
at Ellis island and taken Immediately
before the special board Of inquiry.
Her examination by this board lasted
little over an hour and she was not (
represented by counsel.
Mrs. Pankhurst told the immigration
officials that her purpose in coming
to America was not to advocate the
militant method for obtaining suffrage
but to lecture on the history and the
progress of the cause in England'
Mr.. Reeves filed his appeal by long
distance telephone with Commission
er Caminetti. and announced that the
commissioner general would hear the
case tomorrow. Mr. Reeves said he
would leave for washington tonight

the Copper Range Consolidated mines.
Meetings of these men were held at
Trimountain, Baltic and Painesdale, to
adopt resolutions of sympathy with

ADJUSTMENTS
"GirI of My Dreams"

Tuneful, effervescent and amusing,
the Girl of My Dreams" materially
added to the Christmas fun of Birming-
ham yesterday and last night. The
play is musical comedy of the well
known Hoschna variety which means
melody and merriment.
There. was practically no plot to in
terrupt the regular succession of fun
and music. What little plot there was
! developed early. Harry Swifton's mo-
tor had smashed into another car and
had spoiled lady's, hat The lady
was riding with German Count, and
such things were frowned upon by the
lady's husband, Generalissimo Bonn
bastino, of duelling proclivites.
The fun maker in chief was Daphne
Doffington, the sentimental millner. 1t
developed that at one time or another
Mile. Daphne had all the principals on
her string, German Count, a South
American General and the American
boy. Miss Won Luke was exceptional
ly good and the audience appreciated
her work more than that of any other,
perhaps.
"The Letters You Shouldn't Have
Sent" and whats Sauce for the Gan
der is Sauce for the Goose" were Miss
Won Luke's spscialties, and numbers
and numbers of encores paid tribute
to the success with which she handled
them,

Resolutions Bitter.

"Since July 20 two of the striking
miners, while peaceably in their own
homes, were foully and cowardly muir
dered in cold blood by the imported
murderers, gunner and thugs brought
there by the copper mine owners to
| drive the strikers back to the mines
like slaves; and
Whereas, these imported despera-
does have also shot part of little
girls head off, brutally beaten up the
striking miners, their women and chill
dren, abused and insulted them as part
of their everyday work. and
Whereas, as direct result of the
determination of Shaw, Agassiz and
other owners of the copper mines to
prevent the organization of their
slaves for self-protection and to per-
secute and drive union leaders and or
ganizers from the copper country, so
many human lives were lost on Christ
mus AA' - many VI bhCAh DClhS Nlllhl
of the striking miners; and
Whereas, the blood of these inno-
cent children, whose lives were lost
in that awful panic, is upon the hands
of the mine owners, who first tried to
starve the parents into submission and
slavery and then after the calamity
tried to force upon the suffering fam
lilies their bloody aims; and
Whereas, citizens of Houghton
county, together with imported thugs
and gunner, brutally assaulted and
shot Charles H. Meyer, president, and
