OVATION GIVEN MASSACHUSETTS,
 PROGRESS|VES
Charles Sumner Bird and Daniel CosgrOve Are Greeted by Greatest Pc litical Outpouring in His tory of Lowell
Especial to The Republican,


 LOWELL. Mass, oct. 21.-By far the filled Association Hall tonight to hear Charles Sumner Bird and Daniel Cos grove. The neighbors and friends of the progressive candidate for lieuten- ant governor occupied every seat. damned the side aisles, stood eight deep in the rear and even coveted the stairs to the balconies. The estimate of the size of this greatest of all political outpourings in Lowell for many a day was 1900.
 When Bird and Cosgrove came down the center aisle to the platform every body stood and gave rousing cheers. while both bowed repeatedly Bird was grave and a little flushed by the warmth of the welcome and Cosgrove was all smiles and a little upset
 Last year when these progressive candidates entered the hall there was hardly a handclap and the audience numbered a scant 15O. Certain as he was that Lowell would turn out strong for the first progressive state ticket rally of the year Honest Dan" Cos grove had hardly looked for such an ovation and it put much more cheer into his heart when it came his time to speak and he was given the honor place on the program.
 Perhaps no outburst of the evening was wilder than when Bird, giving his views against restriction of immigra- tion. had this to say.

For the time being he got no further from all parts of the hall came yell after yell and out of the bedlam some thing that sounded like Bird and Cos grove" There was another storm of clapping when Bird ended the sentence resurrection v

Emmeline Pankhurst, in Madison Square Garden, addressing her first American mass meeting tonight ex- plained why militancy methods for the cause of woman's suffrage were followed in England. but not in America, and defended the employ ment of such methods. She criti cized the British government the it responsible through failure to enact the legislation desired by wO- men for the advocates of suffrage resorting to violence to obtain the ballot.
 Only through drastic means. she said, could the English women hope to secure a law dealing with white slavery, industrial evils and other conditions affecting women.
 Preparations had been made for an overflow meeting at Madison Square Garden. but the big hall with a seating capacity of about F, 900 persons, was scarcely one quarter filled. This was attributed by the suffragettes to the uncertain ty until almost the eleventh hour as to whether the immigration authori- ties would allow Mrs. Pankhurst to land in this country. She told of her experience at Ellis Island, prais- ing the immigration authorities. Some of the leading suffragists of the country and a few hunger strikers"

ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH


 LOS ANGELES, .Oct. 21.-Jess Willard, heavyweight prize fighter, and ten others of the twelve con- cerned in the bout in which John Young was fatally injured at the Vernon arena on August ?. must stand trial for alleged violation of the state law prohibiting prize fight ing. Judge Craig of the superior court today overruled the demurrer the defendants entered to the com pIaint and denied a motion to set aside the information. Upon motion of Assistant District Attorney Ford the court dismissed information against Eddy Webster, a second on the ground that he had not figured prominently in the case.
 Then Willard and the other ten including T. J. McCarey, Al Green waTd, promoters, and Charles F. Eyton, referee, were called upon to plead. Each said not guilty and the trials were set for January next The judge said he though a jury should hear the case and decide whether the particular bout in ques- tion was a prize fight or a boxing match. He defined a sparring con- test as one in which two persons attempt through skill and science. to strike each other and avoid being struck, but in which no attempt is made to inflict serious injury, in which the incentive to win is not through knockout but through skill at boxing"
 The arrests of the other prize fighters are expected to follow the overruling of the demurrer.

Because of Failure to Segre- gate Items in the Pro- posed $250,00O Issue, At torneys Decide City Could Not Sell
MUST NOW BE
 THRESHED OVER
Not Only Must There Be Another Election, But There Must Also Be An other Registration of the Property Owners

That the election recently held for the purpose of voting upon the ques- tion of whether or not the city of Phoenix should issue bonds in the sum of S25O,000 to take care of $125.00O indebtedness. s75,OOO for fire department improvements, $25.0O0 for the purchase of public parks and S25,000 for the widening of Van Buren street, was illegal and that before such bonds can legally be is- sued and offered for sale, another election must be held, is the opinion of City Attorney Tom Prescott. ex- pressed before the common council at it's session last evening. In this opinion, Mayor Lloyd B. Christy and every member of the common coun- cil concurs. To remedy the error a special meeting of the common coun- cil was last evening called to be held this evening at 7:30 o'clock at which time formel call will be issued for new bond election, calling for vote upon each of the subjects indi- vidually instead of collectively as in the instance of the election of Octo- Der II.
 Like a thunderbolt from clear sky came the announcement last eve-
 
 proposition to the taxpayers of Phoe- nix in a collective form and without segregation of the four distinct items, the election was made illegal. The sale of the bonds under the cleo ton could not be effected, attorneys for concerns ready to purchase these bonds say as this would foist that much paper upon the hands of the purchasers and leave them without standing at law. With the law clear upon the subject and a careful search of the authorities having been made, the common council last night ad- mitted the illegality of the previous election and decided upon the only other step open, that of calling for another election with the four items segregated This means, that there must also be reregistration, the former registration not being applic- able to the proposed election. It means, too. that there must be de- lay of nearly six weeks more before the city will be in a position to of fer for sale bonds that will pass muster with bond experts. And further. it means that there is a pos- sibility that some of the bonds may not carry, while some of the other bonds may go through with 8 good majority There was some oppos1- tion in the days before the previous election to some of the features of the proposed bond election but the entire issue asked for carried be- cause of the popularity of some of the other items.
 It was a busy session of the com- mon council held last night. After disposing of several minor matters such as granting M. M. Elders per mission to speak three evenings a week at First and Washington streets. and authorizing F. W. Grif- fen to go ahead with the construc- ton of concrete sidewalks in front
