by Mime. Caillaux, wife of the min

the greater in view of the imminence
of the elections. M. Caillaux, broken
in spirit, resigned from his post to-
day and the cabinet was subjected to
several changes. The Hobbies are
seething with all sorts of reports and
the resignation of Ernest Monis, min
lister of marine, and even of the whole
cabinet, is rumored. The most reli-
able opinion seems to indicate that
while the elimination of M. Monis is
possible the resignation of the minis
terry is far from likely the deputies
being unanimous that the budget must
pass before the elections.

headquarters shall be in Belfast.
I'VE pledge the organization our
loyal support so long as it shall prove
true to the princ-.les of equal rights
and privileges for all and special
privileges to none, demanding that a
square deal shall be given in politics,
as we'll as in social and business life.

Newport, r. l., March 17.-Mrs. Elsie
Whalen Goelet, prominent in society cir

granted a divorce today from Robert
Goelet on the ground of extreme cruelty.
BY mutual agreement the terms of which
were not made public, both are to have
custody of their older son, Ogden, aged
six. The mother is to keep Peter, aged
two years. their only other child, until
six years old, when she is to share the
custody of the child with the father.
Neither Mr.. nor Mrs. Goelet was in
court All the testimony was by deposit
tions which were read in tones so low
as scarcely to be heard by any of the
spectators.
Justice Barrow of the superior court in
announcing his decision said:
Extreme cruelty may consist of in
sulting and abusive language as well as
physical violence. The testimony shows
the continuous use of insulting, vulgar
and abusive language by Goelet toward
his wife, accompanied by numerous petty
acts to annoy and embarrass her, and
accomplishing this result. The effect has
been, according to the testimony, Sc
rious impairment of her health, and the
conditions fully warrant granting this
divorce

Senator in Defense
Of Suffrage Says
Amendment Is
Impractical
SAYS CAN'T CARRY 50
NECESSARY STATES
WHILE NEGROES VOTE

Washington, March 17.-After a Wig
orous defence of woman suffrage in
the Senate today, Senator Borah of
Idaho shocked Suffrage advocates on
the floor and in the galleries by de-
claring that it was Impractical and
impossible to obtain the vote for wo-
men by Constitutional amendment.
He predicted that after 10 years of
vain endeavor, the women would re-
new their abandoned request for the
ballot before the people of the states,
because. in seeking an amendment to
the federal Constitution, they had
loaded themselves down with the Ne
gro question, the Japanese question
and a dozen other states right prob
lens.
You will never carry the required
Sc states for a Constitutional woman
suffrage amendment" said the sena-
tor, until you repeal the 18th
amendment" Asserting that the 18th
amendment giving the Negro the right
to vote, was a blunder in the first
place and now was a dead letter. not
being enforced in a single state of
the Union, Senator Borah asked wheth-
er the advocates of the woman suf-
frase amendment, now pending, for a
moment supposed the states of the
South would add 100000 to the lis:
of those whom they must disfran-
chise
Violation of law is a bad thing" he
added. TT is demorallzing to the Ne
gro race to place in the Constitution
the form of rights that we do moi
mean TO see they shall enjoy"
The 18th amendment, the senator
declared was a blunder. engendered in
spirit of retaliation, with the re-
suit that after the first blush of sat-
sifaetion the North had connived al
the Souths violation of it.
The amendment infringed upon
states rights and might furnish a
precedent for an amendment declar-
ing that the right to hold real estate
or attend school should not be denied
because of race or color.
IT have no desire" explained the
senator, Ito bestow the franchise on
the 10000 Japanese on the Pacific
slope. or yield up to the federal gov
eminent the control of the school
questions of the Pacific coast. I would
count myself derelict to those great
Pacific states and to the frame work
of our government if l were to here
set a precedent as to who shall own
property in the states"
