LONDON MllHANTS
HAVE DULL TIME
KIDNAPPING CABINET MEMBERS
ONLY EXCITEMENT FOR THEM
THESE DAYS.

LONDON, Feb. 2s.--Y yesterdays
doings of the militant suffragettes did
not amount to much. They were con-
fined to tampering with letter boxes
and cutting telegraph wires here and
there. although there were occasional
rumors that an attempt to kidnap
members of the cabinet had only
been foiled because Of extra precau-
tons which had been taken by the
police.
Another suffragette meeting was
held last night at a public hall at
the Women's Freedom league, but
of the great disorder.
Miss Christahel Pankhurst, who lis
I'm Paris. was interviewed yesterday by
the representative of a London news
paper. with whom she discussed the
recent developments among the mill
tant suffragettes in England. She said
in discussing the question OF the pro-
posed temporary transportation OF
the most pronounced militant suffra-
gettes. said: ''Such a measure will
not be of the slightest use because
for every suffragette who Is trans
ported a hundred will spring up in
her place"
Late yesterday afternoon a fire was
discovered in the Guild hall 1t was
quickly extlnguished, and the dam
age was triiling. According to Scot
land yard the fire was OF incendiary
origin, and 1t is believed that some
OF the militant suffragettes were re-
sponsible for it.

ports in Mexico was the first step.
THE sending of four transports aud
two brigades to Galveston is the next
and final step
Until the president made his state
