DEATH ACCIDENTAL
SAY AUTHORITIES
Wing Man Reached for Gun
When it Went off, is Be-
lief-Wound is Fatal.

Bismarck, N. D.. April 3.-Sherif
Frank Barnes and Coroner Field re-
turned last evening from Wing where
they had gone to investigate tho
death of Aron Baroney who died from
the results of gun shot wound in
the leg just below the thigh. There
was some question as to how the man
came to his death as he was discov-
cred in his shack alone and dead. Mr..
Barnes stated that it was the general
belief that death was accidental.
Az near as the officers could ascer-
tain Baroncy has been involved in
number of neighborhood rows and 1t
is supposed that he thought he heard
someone about the house in the night
and reached for q loaded shot gun
he kept near his hunk and in pulling
the gun towards him 1t was dis
charged and the charge entered his
leg tearing it nearly Off He could
not have lived more than half an hour
and the indications are that he at
tempted to stop the flow of blood by
plugging up the hole made by the
gun with a part Of the bed quilt.
There was no positive evidence that
the wound was self-inflicted and the
case was left open for further investi.
cation.

STATEMENTS LED
TO HER ARREST

London, April 3.-Mrs. Emmeline
Pankhurst, leader of the militant suf-
fragettes. was found guilty and sem
fenced to three years penal servitude
at the Old Bailey sessions on Il charge
of melting persons to do damage.
The trial lasted. two days. The jury
added to the verdict Of guilty, a strong
the Judge pronounced the heavy SEN
tence of three years, the crowd Of wo-
men in the court room rose in angry
protest.
Mrs. Pankhurst's closing address to
the jury lasted fifty minutes. She
said she did not wish to call witnesses
She denied any malicious incitement.
Neither nor the other militant
suffragettes are wicked or malicious" :"
she said..
Speaking with feeling, she fiercely
criticized man-made laws. and said
the divorce law alone was sufficient
to Justify a revolution by women.
"From the very moment leave the
court, / will refuse to eat" she said
impassionately. st will come out Of
the prison dead or alive at the earliest
possible moment
Mrs. Pankhurst almost broke down
when the jury pronounced the verdict.
Three attempts were made early to-
day to burn houses in the Hampstead
district Of London. One residence was
occupied. The damage done is not
extensive.
The crime which led to Mrs. Pank-
hurst's arrest was committed some
time ago. A bomb, placed under the
summer home Of David Lloyd George,
which was in course Of construction,
partially wrecked the structure. Aft
er the explosion. several clues were
found that connected sufrragettes with
1t, but the police were at a loss to
find the guilty parties.
Statements made in several Of her
public addresses, in which she under
took to shoulder the responsibility, led
to Mrs. Pankhurst's arrest.
She was indicted on g. charge OF
having ''counselled certain persons,
whose names are unknown. to place
felontously and maliciously certain
|gunpowder and other explosive SUBJ
stances with intent thereby to dam
age" Lloyd Georges home.
Yesterday Archibald H.. Bodkin,
Counsel for the treasury, had not pro-
ceeded far with his opening .of the
case when Mrs. Pankhurst interposed
with the objection:
II do not mind counsel introducing
reports of my speeches made by jour.
nalists but I object to police reports.
They are grossly inaccurate, very
ignorant and ungrammatical and con-
vey an absolutely wrong impression
Of what I said"

TO C|RCUNVENT'
i, HUNGER STRIKES
Bill Before English Parlia-
ment-Woud Permit
Temporary Release.

London, April Sin discussing a
bill to circumvent hunger strikes" oy
suffragettes, Reginald McKenna, the
British home secretary today urged
the house Of commons not to attach
too much Importance to the terrible
tales of suffering caused Dy iorclole
feeding"
"Publicity," he said. ''is the key
note Of the militant suftragette prop
shock the public by the violence OF
their outrages and attempt to enlist
sympathy by publishing tales OF their
sufferings in prison.
but these prisoners have declared
war against society and the govern
ment is responsible for law and or
der"
Mr.. McKenna said that the propos-
ed law, which provides for the tenn
porary conditional discharge OF pris-
oners whose detention is undesirable
on account Of i'll health. would give
him q power which would make fore
ible feeding unnecessary.
The home secretary explained that
under the existing law only three
courses are open to those responsible
for prisoners who begin a hunger
strike. They must be either released,
forcibly fed, or food placed In their
cells. and the prisoners allowed to die
If they do not take It.
'At the present time." said the
home secretary. I'VE have no power
to release prisoners without remitting
their sentences altogether. If the
new bill is passed We can release on
ticket of leave prisoners whose health
is suffering from want Of food"
Charles A. McCurdy, a liberal men,
ber, opposed the bill. He said legis.
.lation would be wholly unnecessary II
the government would extend fair
treatment to the question of woman
James Keir Hardie. the labor lead
or, moved the rejection of the bill.
declaring that tho government. by
breaking it's pledges to the women.
was itself responsible for the militant
campaign.
Lord Robert Cecil, unionist. opposed
the bill on the ground that it would
not get rid of forcible feeding. Asked
what his remedy would be. Lord Rob-
ert replied deportation" but when
questioned to how he would prevent
the women from going on hunger
strikes during the voyage he gave no
explanation.
Sir Gilbert Parker supported the
bill because he wished the home sec
retary to be given sufficient power to
enforce sentences against laW-break-
ing suffragettes.
Mr.. Hardie's motion to reject the
bill was defeated by vote of 335 to
80, and the second reading of the
measure was then carried 296 to 43.
