Vain Attempt to See Henry.

Mrs. Fran els I. du Pont and Mrs. E. r.
CARMEL came from Washington, Del, in
vain yesterday to get audience with
Chairman Henry of the House rules COM
mittee in an effort to convince him that
it is just to allow the suffrage amend
ment resolution to come to a vote in the
House at this session of Congress. The
best that Mrs. du Pont could do was to
leave letter on Mr. Henry's desk setting
forth her views.
Mr. Henry has expressed his desire that
no more suffrage delegations call upon
him seeking special ruling, for he is
determined to abide by the democratic
caucus program for the rest of the ses-
sion.
He has been approached almost daily
since the caucus by delegations OF suf-
frage workers from various states and
associations.
