HENRY PUTS THE
CAD TO M'AD0O
Money for Tennessee,
Why Not for Cotton?
Asks Representative.

Washington, Oct. 12.--ln Il caustic
letter sent to Secretary McAdoo to-day
Representative Henry, chairman of the
House Rules Committee and leader in
the flibuster TO force legislation for
the relief Of cotton growers, asserts
that the Secretary Of the Treasury
ought TO deposit government funds i'm
mediately in Southern banks to avert
Impending bankruptcy hanging over
thirty millions of people" Mr.. Henry
says that Secretary McAdoo found .
way TO float a loan for the State Or
Tennessee, that he aided the Dayton
food sufferers and has heretofore de-
posted crop moving funds, thereby
establishing q precedent he should now
follow.
Referring 20 Secretary McAdoo's
statement that the suggested sale OF
Panama Canal bonds 10 raise money is
impracticable, Mr.. Henry reminds the
Secretary Of the Treasury that both
he and the President had approved the
Alexander bill for a government steam
ship line 10 be financed in part by the
sale of such bonds. Mr.. Henry says, in
part:
"If you will announce 10 the world in
r ringing proclamation that, as Secre-
tary of the Treasury, you propose 20
use the public moneys on hand, and 20
be secured by prompt and adequate
legislation, 20 the extent Of any num-
Der of millions of dollars necessary for

Iamity now overhanging the South

ROCHESTER IN
SUFFRAGE GRIP
Pilgrims Turn Verbal Bat

Rochester, Oct. l2.--Sufragc pill
grims were stealing quietly into
Rochester all day yesterday. Registra-
ton ut the Pow rs Hotel, headquarters
Of the convention, showed that during
the course of the day some hundred
additional suffragists from the furth-
est bou Ids Of New York state had
come in.
The people of Rochester were first
fully aware that the citadel had been
entered when, following the Columbus
Day parade, a battery Of suffrage
oratory was turned on the crowd at
convenient street corners. Mrs. Carrie
Chapman Gait entered at noon. and
from that time the leaders were in
conference, while the rank and file en-
gagged in preliminary skirmishes for
waking up Rochester
Corporal" Klstschken called com

there are three thousand copies Of

Mrs. Eleanor Garrison put on her
badge. Suffrage First" shouldercd q
bag of yellow magazines ard tackled
the baseball fan. The fan was good
natured. hut evidently the turned
backs did not put suffrage irst.
The suffragists then made al attack
on the brnquctinR hall TO nail up their
mammoth maps and decorations for
tho beginning Of to-morrow's conven-
ton. A crowd OF walters drove them
from the hall. The Knights Of Column
bus. three hundred trong, were TO dine
there that night.
Attention was then turned 20 the
automobiles TO be decorated for to
morrow morning. parade. Heated dis
cussiOns on speed had led 20 such
strong feeling that the suffrage chauf-
feurs were hardly on speaking terms
with enc another.
Two well known cars will be missed
from the parade. General" Resale
Jones's Victory is still in the hands OF
the physicians, and Mr.. and Mrs: James
Lees Laidlaw's Dresdnought lies many
miles behind.
On returning 20 headquarters the
tutfragists found that they had to run
the gauntlet of hundreds OF decorated
Knights Of Columbus One little
woman declared she would not run
such risks again, but would stay in her
room all evening.
81 do not mind men, plain men, she
said: "but decorated men brighten me.

be followed 10y public luncheon, after
which the convention will sit down %
