SAILS FROM FRANCE OCTOBER 4

Definite announcement that Mrs. En-
incline Pankhurst, the English mill
tant sufragist leader. will sail from
France for the United States on Oc-
tober I. Yesterday caused Secretary of
Labor Wilson to institute an investi-
cation to determine whether Mrs.
PankhUrst shall be barred from this
country as an undesirable alien.
Commissioner General of Immigra-
tion Caminetti, after a conference with
Secretary Wilson. said that the deci-
sion Of immigration officials as to
whether or not Mrs. Pankhurst can
enter the country will not be made
public until Mrs Pankhurst actually
applies for admission at a port.
immigration officials intimate that
il Mrs. Pankhurst's violations OF law
in England are found to have involved
moral turpitude," a hint may be given
Mrs. PankhUrst that her application
for admission will be denied. Such a
hint would be unofficial, and can be
disregarded by the militant leader.

old WASHINGTON Inn
WILL Be TORN down
Was Reconstructed from Two Resi-
dences that Were Built by
George Washington.
WILL MAKE WAY FOR PARK

The Washington Inn. in North Capitol
Street, between B and c Streets, is to be
destroyed to make room for the addition
to the park of the Capitol. This inn
formerly was the Kenmore Hotel II
first was known as the Hllman House.
having been reconstructed from two resi-
dences built by George Washington.
All around this old inn are houses of
colonial date. many of them extremely
well built with carved mantels and other
adornments OF olden days. About forty
years ago the grade of North Capitol
Street at this point was considerably
lowered and props were put under the
old houses of that day and additional
stories built underneath the old struc-
lures to make them level with the street.
This was done with the old Washington
residences. Washington addressed A let
ter 10 William Thornton. the architect,
at Federal City" from Mount Vernon
in December. l79S, in. which he inclosed
money on account. TO proceed in laying
in materials for CARRYING on my buildings
in the Federal City"
Washington wrote to the architect:
Il saw a building in Philadelphia of
about the same front and elevation that
are to be given to my two houses, which
pleased me. II consisted of two houses
united. doors in the center. a pediment
in the roof, and dormer window on each
side OF it in front. skylighIs in the rear.
IF thi is not incongruous with rules Of
architecture, | should be glad to have
my two houses executed in this style"
The architects and builders carried out
Wasi ihgton's request. and the structure
had two entr, 7ces for many years, al
though many changes were made after
ward from time TO time. Washington
paid 1886 for the two lots, and he valued
the two houses in his day at $1,000.

Also Commend. Senator Poindextcr
for Advocating suffrage Here.
w. D. Mackenzie, of the North WASH

Z. VIII. executive secretary Of the Dis
trict Equal Suffrage League, indorsed
last night at a meeting at Eighth Street
and Pennsylvania Avenue Northwest the
work of the new Board of Commissioners
and praised Senator Miles Poindexter of
Washington and Roy c. Claflin, chairman
of the District Delegate Association, for
their work in behalf or political recogni-
(ion for the District.
1t was said by the speakers that the
Board OF Commissioners had shown their
interest in the District In the changes on
the Board of Assessors, and that the bill
providing for delegate in Congress from
the District, framed and fathered by
Senator Poindexter and advocated by the
association, of which Mr.. Clafiin is chair
man, was in principle excellent
II was said by the speakers, however,
that there were several points in the bill
on which Senator POindexter had been
misIed. Among those mentioned was the
part which, Mr.. Will said, provides that
only persons paying S or more personal
or real estate taxes shall be entitled to
vote. This, Mr.. Will claimed, would dis
franchise a great part of the residents of
the District.
Both OF the speakers asserted their ad-
vocacy of enfranchisement for the Dis
trict on nonpartisan plan. They said
they favored strongly a commission form
of government such as that at Des
Moines, Iowa.

DISASTROUS fire
ON HARVEY farm
Barn and Garage Near Silver
Spring, Md, Totally
Destroyed.
RESIDENCE NOTDAMAGED
Bucket Brigade Manages to Save
Home-Loss Estimated
at $500.

Fire of an unknown origin last night
destroyed the barn and garage on the
farm of B. S. Harvey. on the Blair ROAD,
about a mile and a half from Silver
Spring Md. The heroic work of a bucket
brigade. composed of farmers from the
adjoining country, saved from the flames
the residence of Mr.. Harvey, formerly
the country home of Justice Ashley NJ.
Gould, of the District Supreme Court.
Mr.. Harvey was sitting on the porch
of his house with friends about s o'clock
last night when suddenly flames were
seen to shoot from the roof of the barn.
The party rushed to the structure, but
only succe eded in pulling out a horse,
COW, and a wagon. The advance of the
flames checked their efforts to save some
OF the other. contents OF the building.
skies Are Illuminated.
Between the barn and the house-a dis
tance OF about $50 feet-were a garage, a
chicken house, and a corn house. An au-
tomobile was taken from the garage just
as the flames began to reach the struc-
turc. The bright illumination of the skies
brought hundreds of farmers from the
neighborng country. They speedily
formed a bucket brigade and commenced
their efforts to save the residence.
At $50 o'clock Fire Engine Company
No. - received orders from Acting
Chief Engineer Sullivan TO go to tho
scene Of the blaze. The long run of
about six miles was made in record
time, hut upon reaching the farm the
nremeE saw that the flames had made
too much progress to be checked.
There was no water available for
pumping purposes. and the firemen
were compelled to resort to their
chemicals in an attempt to check the
flames from spreading to the house.
Both the barn and the garage burned
to the ground. The barn contained a
big supply OF hay and number of
implements. The damage last
night was estimated at about $500.
The buildings are said to have been
fully insured.
Mr.. Harvey purchased the farm
about two years ago from Justice
Gould. 1t contains about eighteen
acres. The farm is located near Four
