ing the L'Detucci girl She readily
admitted she had given birth to a
child shortly before December 2, but
said that II had been taken from her,
and that her relatives had given hes
no satisfaction when she questioned
them as to what had become of II.
She supplemented this statement
with another that led Detective Cod
frey to. arrest both her and her
brother-in-law. The conversation be-
tween her and Godfrey was carried
on with the assistance of Joseph
Federico, a court interpreter.
Laudis stoutly maintains that he
knows nothing of the disappearance
of his sister-in-law's child. He
named another brother-in-law Of the

WOMEN SENT TO
PRISON FOR PUTTING
ACID into MAIL
English Suffragettes,
Including Cripple,
Get s Months.

LONDON, Jan. 9-Long sentences
were passed today on two of the
militant suffragettes. many of whom
in recent months have engaged in
campaign of destruction Of the mails
May BiIlinghurst and Louisa Gay.
two of the first to be arrested in con-
nection with these outrages. were
brought up for trial at the Old
Bailey today and condemned to eight
months imprisonment each.
May Billinghurst, who is cripple.
and is unable to get about except on
a tricycle.. already has been impris-
oned on several occasions in connec-
ton with the suffrage campaign.
The evidence given today showed
that letter boxes throughout the cen
tire and the west end of London had
been damaged, together with their
contents, by means of acids, sticky
fluids of various kinds. varnish and
ink In some cases infiammable ma
terials, such as rags soaked in lamp
oil, had been inserted through the
Sits in the boxes for the admission
of the mail. Many valuable docu-
ments had been destroyed in this way
These included money orders, con-
tracts. checks and bank notes.
It was matter of difficulty TO cap
ture the perpetrators of the outrages
in the act, as in most instances the
destructive fluids were passed into
boxes in uncorked bottles contained
in ordinary envelopes.
