WASHINGTON. April 6.-lnvesti-
cation OF the circumstances under
which the American forts at San

German steamer Odenwald and al
legged undue detention of the vessel

uIested Of the state department by
the German embassy here The em-
bassy today issued a statement charg-
ing that no warning was fired as a
gignal for the vessel to heave To, as is
customary in such cases. report to
the treasury department from the col
lectOr Of customs directly cOntradicts
this, saying a warning shot was un-
needed Secretary Bryan said today
an investigation into the Incident had
not been completed.
Secretary Garrison said that in the
presence of the collector OF customs
the German consul and the Oden-
wald's commander had been warned
that force would be uneG II neces-
sary TO prevent the vessel leaving
without clearance"
Government officials pointed out
that the case of the Odenwald was
now in the federal courts I'm Porto
Rico, where the captain could send up
a claim In his defense. Today's nOti-
hcation. 1t was said, was the first in
timatiOn that the German commander
felt he had not been fairly dealt with.
Clearance was withheld from the
steamer because she was suspected OF
preparing to take supplies to n Ger
man cruiser outside the harbOr.

SUFFRAGE WORK
IN NEW YORK
State Has a Million Suffra-
glSts, Says Mrs. Gait.
BY CARRIE CHAPMAN GAIT.

BY CARRIE CHAPMAN GAIT.
TATHEN our campaign opened
NV two years ago we investigat-
ed first of all the causes of
opposition to woman suffrage
We found that, our opponents had GER
tain claims upon which they based
their opposition. They are still stand
ing by those claims and have never
varied them much during the two
years. They are. first. women do not
want to vote; second. woman suffrage
In operation in twelve western states
has not brought good results.
We therefore set out to answer these
two chief objections as best we could
We urged the women In villages, towns
and cities to canvass among women
and to learn how they regarded the
proposal to give them vote. In all the
campaigns to enfranchise men there
has never been any phase which has
Illustrated devotion to a principle so
clearly as this canvass Of the women.
They have taken their baby carriages
and gone out OF an afternoon, stopping
house by house to make their queries.
They have done their homework and
washed their dinner dishes and gone
out for the two or three hours in the
afternoon they have for rest They
have gone without dinner in the cities
in order to go to the homes Of the great
masses of women who are only to be
found at home in the evening.
While New York state has not been
canvassed to the last man or woman.
we are yet in a position to know that
a very conservative estimate of the
number of women who want to vote in
the state of New York and who will
avail themselves of that privilege as
soon as it is granted is not less than
100000. The largest number of men
registered In this state at any one cleo
ton was 1,764,352. Upon the suppose
ton that the number of women eligible
to vote would be about the same. 1t is
