General" Drummond,
Shouting and Struggling,
Pays $40 Fine in Court
BY Associated Press

London, April 8. - Pandemonium
reigned in Marlborough street police
court to-day when General" Mrs
Drummond, the militant suffragette
was brought up again and sentenced
to pay a fine of $40 or go to prison
for two months, for creating a dis
turbance in Hyde Park during the
Unionist rally on Saturday.
Mrs. Drummond was so violent that
three policemen had to pinion her and
remove her hatpins before the magis-
trate found opportunity during a
pause in the uproar to pronounce SEN
tence.
The general" vehemently declared
that she would never pay the fine. She
was forcibly removed to cell.
All the time Mrs. Drummond was in
with the police and warders and
shrieked denunciation of every one
present. Even a sister militant suff-
ragette who was in court, was the vic
tim of a verbal attack because she
did not storm the prisoners enclosure
and rescue the general"
Selling a policeman's metal whistle.
Mrs. Drummond flung it at the magis-
trate's head, but he lodged the mis-
sile..
Taking advantage of the diversion
Mrs. Drummond then sprang from the
enclosure but was seized before she
got far away and was carried back
shouting and struggling.
When Mrs. Drummond became
cclmer she was released, as either she
or some one else had paid her fine.

troduced in Congress last night to
take away statehood from Morelos and
divide Chihuahua into two States and
