SUFFRAGETTES ARE
STILL UNRULY
Try To Horsewhip Scotsman
But Get the Worst OF the
Bargain
(By Associated Press.)

London, July 15.--Half a dozen po-
licement were required today to re-
move from the Marlborough street
police court two kicking, clawlng
screaming suffragettes. who earlier in
the day had attempted to horsewhip
the Right Hon. Thomas McKinnon
Wood. secretary OF state for Scotland
But for the Intervention of his butler
1t is probable that the secretary
would have beei, sOundly thrashed.
The secretary was leaving his resi-
dence when a woman rushed up, horse
whip in hand, exclaiming:
"You Scottish pig; II you don't stop
the forcible feeding of women, we will
smasii you"
The militant lashed him across the
chest, but before she could deliver q
second cut the butler. standing on the
steps, threw her to the ground. He
then tackled second woman who
was shouting:
Let me. get at the Scottish pig"
The police took both women to the
police station where they were search
ed. On one was found a dccomposed
egg labelled: Refreshing fruit"
In the court the women gave their
names as Janette Wallace and Ber-
tina Watson. They were fined twenty
shillings each, but refused to pay and
we're sent to jail for four days each.

20 this Huerta's reply was drama
tic and swift. He marched a column
| OF troops to the chamber of deputies
and threw 110 deputies into prison
Next he dissolved congress and took
unto himself the legislative authority
| calling for an election of new mem
bers on October 5. Through Mr.
O'Shaughnessy the United States made
representations Of violence to the de-
puties.
When 1t became known that the
| elections had resulted in no choice
: because Of the failure of the voters
to go to the polls the American gov
ernment pre-emptorily called on HUI
erta to resign. In statement to the
diplomatic corps on November 9 he
announced he would declare the re-
suit of the election null. and order
another election.
On November IL Huerta refused to
accede to the American demand for
his resignation and John Lind left
Mexico Sity for Vera Cruz.
Meantime the United States des-
patched warships to the Mexican
coast and Americans continued to
leave Mexico.
Definite proposals were made by
the United States to Carranza and his
adnerents. fl
Several of the European powers, no.
table Great Britain, Germany and
France. supported the policy of the
United States. The constitutionalists
continued their advance to the south.
