Enthusiastic Meetings.


After Mrs. Pankhurst had been sent
to Holloway Jail the suffragists re-
newed and extended their demonstra-
lions. Enthusiastic meetings took
place. and large funds were raised for
the campaign.
At one meeting, in Albert hall. $T5.-
600 was subscribed by the women in a
short time. One contributed
her wedding ring and a gold chain.
Others also gave jewelry.
The largest individual subscription
was $4,000. and the next largest was
$1,000. Mrs. General Drummond.
who presided. is reported to have said
in announcing the subscriptions:
Money talks, and the members of
the cabinet know it. What we have
raised tonight would buy a lot of
matches and paraffin."
At the same meeting Mrs. Drum
mond read the report of the physician
who examined Miss Emerson immedi-
ately after her release from Jail. 1t
said in part:
81 find the mucous membrane of the
throat entirely gone and the throat
very badly bruised; also the mouth
and gums are in very bad condition,
Miss Emerson is suffering from Sc
we're nervous prostitution"
Miss Emerson's condition was at
tributed to forced feeding while she
was in Jail. The reading of the re-
port created the greatest Indignation
at the meeting.
Another sensation was created at
the meeting when . former member
OF parliament Urged the formation OF
a militant league OF men to emulate
the women in destroying property.
Activities Continued.
Following Miss Emerson's release,
the suffragists continued their demon
stration with what seemed increased
violence. An empty passenger car on
n train proceeding from Waterloo to
Kingston-on-Thame was entirely de-
stroyed by fire. The other cars on the

ARE THE ENGLISH
RETARD|NG
Question Raised by Second
Defeat of the Cause
In Michigan.

IT, w.
women to carry their state for
suffrage after a determined
campaign has raised the ques-
ton of whether the methods of the
militants in England are harming the
cause In the United States.
While American s%uffragists generally
deplore the sentencing OF Mrs. Pank-
hurst to prison and the treatment
which, according I o dispatches. was
given to Zelie Emerson. an American,
in Holloway Jail. many of them do not
indorse the extremely revolutionary
plans of the Engllshwomen.
1t has been many n day since some
part of England did not have some
kind of disturbance created by women
who want the right TO vote. Even the
king has not escaped annoyance, for
%cablegrams tell of his having been
called up by the suffragettes by tele-
phone. Since the kings telephone
number is private there was instantly
a suspicion that a suffragist sympa-
thizer in the palace had supplied the
number to her friends outside.
Recently a militant was able to get
King George on the telephone through
having knowledge of his private call
number, and IL report has it that he
snapped to an equerry:
"Some oma here has given away
the private royal call number. You
must find out who she Isl"
Queen Mary asked three women about
this, but when they denied all knowl-
edge of it she dropped the matter.
Politics In Palace.
Still another phase of the suffrage
situation has caused trouble in the
royal household of late, il the cable
grams are to he accepted as true.
The agitation of the suffrage ques-
ton became so extended and bitter
that it spread to the ladies in waiting
in the royal household.
The king and queen are supposed to
have no political sympathies, and poll
ties must not be discussed in their
presence. Lords and ladies' of the royal
household. however, have Il drawing
room and dining room of their own,
and in these the discussion of votes
for women grew so bitter that Queen
Mary made it plain that II any further
trouble occurred she would reorganize
her household.
Her majesty called in two of her
ladies in waiting recently to explain
their part in q quarrel. Soon after one
of them, the Countess of Shaftesbury,
resigned. Both were prosuffragettes.
S~uffragettes burned the pavilion at
the Tunbridge Wells cricket field. The
building was totally destroyed.
A large photograph of Mrs. Emme-
line Pankhurst was left at the scene
of the fire.
The following morning, on the rec
ommendation of the prison physician,
Mrs. Pankhurst. greatly weakened by
her nine day hunger strike, was re'
leased from Holloway jail. The Jail
ers declared she had not been fed
forcibly.
