SUFFRAGE DEFEATED
 IN HOUSE OF LORDS
Reject Bill Giving Ballot to
 Women By Vote of 1O4 to 60

London. May 6.--The woman's sus- frage bill was rejected tonight by the House of Lords by a vote of 104 to SO.
 Baron Courtney of Penwith, the Earl of Lytton and Baron willoughby de Broke, spoke for the bill. while Baron Weardale, the Marquis of Crewe, and viscount St. Aldwin spoke against 1t.
 viscount St. Aldwin said arguments for the extension of the parliamentary suffrage to women, which were based on the results obtained in those states of the United States where it had been tried. did not apply In the United Kingdom because in the states men were in the majority. while in the Brit ish Isles they were in the minority. Consequently, he argued, the granting of the parliamentary vote to women in the British Isles would mean the hand : ing over of the destinies of the country and of the empire to female electorate which. he sald was perilous step to take.
 Among those who voted for the bill were viscount Morley of Blackburn. the Archbishop of Canterbury and the Bishop of London. Hereford. Bangor and St. Asaph.
 Those who voted against the bill in- cluded the Marquis of Lansdowne, Wis count Esher, the Marquis of Salisbury. the Earl of Haldsbury and the Duke Of Northumberland.

 In the past there has been consid- erable criticism of all legislative ac- Ition promoting army officers over the heads of their brother officers, but this bill eliminates the cause for criti- cism because 1t also provides that these general officers are to have these ranks especially created for them and in reality 1t will create vacancies SO that some of tt'eir brother officers

LEO M. FRANK AGAIN IS DENIED NEW TRIAL I Expected That Action Says Condemned Man When Told of Decision--'I Have Nothing to Say-Await Hearing
 of Annulment Motion For Further Action

was set for Saturday by Judge Hill today. The defense alleges that the re- turning of the verdict against Frank while he was absent from the court room violated the constitutional rights of the defendant
 Absence Agreed ! ..Ahssuee of the oefendant was agreed By the two mc4shets Of Frank \ e10lsel and was sugg ssted by l.. <. Roail. the presiding judge at the trial, It was feared by the judge that physi- cal violence might be inflicted on the factory superintendent by persons in the audience in case a verdict of ac- quittal was returned. The annulment motion was filed by lawyers who had no connection with the agreement
 The extraordinary motion for a new trial oNerruled today was based on the claim of newly discovered evidence and criticized methods used by persons con nectci with preparing the case for the state. Many of the affidavts presented reflected on James Conley. the negro fac- tory sweeper. who was convicted as an accessory after the murder.
 In its counter showing the state intro duced sworn statements repudiatlng many of the affidavits and charging that inn proper means. including bribe offers, had been used in getting the reputed new evidence Forgery was charged in some instances.
 Third Denial
 Today was the third time that new trial has been denied Frank A previ- GUS appeal for a new trial was refused in both the superior court and in the state supreme court, Information was then gathered for the extraordinary mo- ton, which was denied today. Frank has twice been sentenced to hang. the execution in each instance be ing stayed by motions foi a new trial He was convicted on the first ballot Of the jury on August 25, 1913. and sen tenced to be hanged on October 10. When final denial of the first motion for a new trial was made by the state supreme court his execution again was set for April F this year.
 The body of the factory girl was found in the basement of the National Pencil company here on the morning of April 27. 1913. She had been struck over the head and afterward strangled. Frank had charge of the pencil factory.
