RICHMOND women CONFIDENT
At FIRST SUFFRAGE MEETING

Over one hundred Richmond women
assembled on the lawn and porch OF
the North A Street Friends church,
today at noon emphatically informed
about ten men that they and all other
women in the country wanted the bal
lot.
In a resolution read by Miss Ruth
James and a Declaration of Independ-
ence read by Miss Alma Madden the
announcement was made that there
was no reason in the world why wom-
en- shouldn't have the right to vote
and that further delay on this Ques-
ton, which the male Inhabitants Of
the American republic have been side
stepping since 1776, would no longer
be tolerated.
The mass meeting held under the
shadows of the ancient Friends meet
ing house, place of worship Of sect
which has been the loyal champion of
equal suffrage since its origin, marked
a unique event in the political history
of Richmond, and the ceremonies were
simple and impressive.
Expected Demonstration.
A few men, apparently attracted to
the meeting under the impression that
some Pankhurstian stunts, such as
window breaking and house burning,
were to be the principal features of
the program, were greatly impressed
with the dignified and earnest de-
mand of the women to participate in
the government.
Coming to think of it," remarked
one man, leaning over the iron fence,

The meeting was called to order by
! Miss Mary A. Stubs who declared
this day in Richmond and throughout
the nation marked new era; that it
was the year One" and that it was
in the words of the politician, "all
over but the shouting" a prediction
confidently made upon realization that

Of Gen. HUERTA
TBY LEASED WIREl

LONDON, May denomination Of
an army plot in Mexico City to over
throw President Huerta was received
here today in code dispatches from
the Mexican capital They intimate
that the conspiracy was baked by Sir
lionel Garden. the British minister.
who warned Huerta that his army
was planning his downfall, and even
his assassination, IL necessary.
According to the messages, there
was a long session of Huerta's cobb
net at Mexico City last night at which
the president accused Banquet OF
having started the conspiracy and
served notice on his war minister
that he would have to give a pledge
that he would render loyal support
TO the government, or he would be
arrested.
The cabinet meeting was held at
Chapulepec Castle. around which
Huert had stationed 200 loyal soldiers
and it is said that Banquet gave the
pledge demanded, recognizing that
Huerta held the whip hand.

ence. which was being read today
throughout the country.
The 1914 Declaration.
I'VE, therefore, the women citizens
of the United States of America" con-
cluded Miss Madden, "assembled to-
day throughout the nation, appealing
to the Supreme Judge of the World
for the rectitude of our Intentions, do
in the name and by the authority of
the organized womanhood Of America
demanding Acknowledgement, solemnly
publish and declare that women ought
to be politically free. Given
our full citizenship and allowed to
share in the government, we will be
as jealous of the honor and integrity
of our country as we have been in
the past, when in countless ways we
have shown our devotion to the life of
the nation, to the liberty of its citi-
zens and to the happiness of all the
people,
For the first time probably a sharp,
blood-tingling bugle call blared forth
from under the eyes of the old Quaker
meeting house, and then a chorus of
women's voices sang the inspiring
words of the Battle Hymn of the Re
public" Later the women joined in
singing .".America.s
Appeal to Congress.
The resolution read by Miss James
petitions congress without delay" to
proceed in the most feasible and
practical manner to remove the bar
riers which prevent American women
from the exercise of full franchise,
and to make our country not govern
ment in which half the people are de-
MED the right of participation, but in
truth and reality a democracy"
The reading of this brought forth
another round of applause and upon
motion of Miss Frances Robinson a
copy will be sent to the Indiana con.
gressional delegation.
Among the women who attended the
meeting were Mrs. Anna Vaughan,
Mrs. Catherine Wilson, Mrs Emily
Dill and Mrs. Esther King, all over 75
years of age, and Mrs. King, past
eighty years.
This is the first time the women
of Richmond have ever publicly de-
manded the ballot" enthusiastically
stated Mrs. Vaughan. II am glad that
l have been able to attend this meet
ing, it is splendid, and it is so appro
pirate that it should be held at a
Friends meeting house."
At the conclusion of the ceremonies
a lunch was served in the basement OF
the church.
Preceding the meeting an automo
bile, trimmed in yellow, paraded the
streets. bugler sounding army calls

penditures by the city government the
first four months of this year in com
parison with the expenditures of the

ments made at Glen Miller park. The

total expenditures for the same period
last year were $2S,74662.

ter of 1913 and for 1914 in the five de-
partments under the board of public
works are as follows:
Street depart. IS s.7SO.49 5 s.51961
