After Creating
Scene SuHs are
Sent to Lookup
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS,

London, July S.-The brief respite
in the militant suffragette agitation
ended today when Mrs Emneline
Pankhurst resumed command of the
forces of the women's social and po-
litical union at their London head
quarters. Mrs Pankhurst was, how
ever, permitted to remain in active
command of the militants for only
very brief period. When she emerged
from her headquarters to go to lunch
she was arrested and taken to Hollo-
way JAIL
simultaneously with the reappear-
ance OF Mrs. Pankhurst, a violent
scene was created in the central GRIM
inal court when Mrs. II. +. Alice-Ha
Miss Grace Roe, Miss Julia Jameson
and Miss Ellen Armes were brought
up for trial for conspiracy. The
charge against them was "conspiring
with others maliciously to commit
damage and injury and to spoil GER
tain real and personal property of the
Liege, subjects of our Lord the king
The prisoners had been arrested dur
ing raid on a West End fiat on May
81. In their rooms were found new
shrapnel grenade Of ingenious manu-
facture, coils of fuse and plans of
houses with instructions how to reach
them and as to the usual movements
of the police in the vicinity.
Miss Hoe and Mrs. Hall, when
brought into court surrounded by
women warders, refused to plead. They
threw papers and pens from the pris-
oners enclosure and shouted a COM
mentary on their treatment in Hollo-
way Jail. Two policemen and five
women attendants started to take
them out of the court to the cells be-
low. When the judge decided to pro-
ceed with the trial in the absence of
the two women. Mrs. Hall threw her
self on the floor and kicked several
policemen and it took some minutes to
remove her.
The other prisoner pleaded not
guilty.
Mrs. Hall and Miss Roe were SEN
fenced to three months Imprisonment
each. Miss Armes was found not guilty
and Miss Jameson was discharged for
lack of evidence.
The accused created further disorder
while the judge was summing up, and
friends Of the prisoner shouted you
coward, you ought to be hanged"
The court was thereupon cleared.
Sydney Drew, the publisher of the
newspaper The Suffragatte who had
been found guilty earlier in the week
of publishing articles inciting to acts
Of violence and arsen, was sentenced to
two months in Jail.

London, Oct. 6.-The City of Ant
werp, the temporary capital Of Bel
gium, one of the most beautiful towns
of all Europe and the fourth largest
| seaport in the world, is in imminent
| danger of bombardment, according to
dispatch received here late tonight.
A message to the war ministry
stated that all the citizens had been
notified to leave the town at once and
that all roads and canals from the
city were crowded with women anu
| children packed to the limit with theii
household goods and other possessions,
making their way to places of safety.
| This dispatch was taken to Indicate
that the outer forts of the great Bel
gian stronghold had fallen although no
official mention was made to substan.
tiate this theory.
Besides the outer forts there are two
more great barrier lines with which
the besiegers have to contend in the
attack on Antwerp, and then there is
the great inundated area. This ex-
tends along the rivers Scheldt. Ruppel
and Nethe as far as Duffel, as we'll as
to the north and east of the town.
If Antwerps forts have fallen, the
Germans have accomplished task
heretofore believed impossible, within
so short a time. The latest news at the
war office before the word came to-
night that preparations were being
made to lombard the city proper, was
that the forts were holding their own,
and that the Germans had found a
more difficult task than they antici-
pated. However it is believed now that
the big Teuton guns have just been
put to test, and for the first time their
real strength tried.
The German losses have been ter
rfiic during the weeks siege of Ant
werp. One whole German regiment
was wiped out at Waelhem and hun
dreds were shot dead, or wounded, by
| the terrific fire poured into the ranks
of the invaders from st. Catherine,
| Woevre and Lierre.
The dispatch, which was from the
burgomaster and sent at 10 o'clock
Tuesday night, said:
The military governor has in
formed the burgomaster that bonn
bardment of Antwerp is imminent and
people who wish to. flee the town are
requested to leave
The sixty-third day of the great
European war saw repetition OF
what the peoples of all the countries
concerned have forced themselves to
expect, perhaps for months to come
no decisive conflict on land or sea.
From Berlin to London came moth
ing in the way of claims to progress
| or reverses.
