DIDN'T ASK PLEDGE.
Suffragists Merely Wanted Sen. Page
to Hear Their Plea.

Hyde Park, Oct 26.A delegation o.
ladies representing the Vermont Equa
Suffrage association visited Senator
Page Monday and laid before him q
statement as to their position regarding
equal suffrage. These ladies were; Mrs
J. b. Estee, Mrs. j. L. Kelton, Mrs. j.
b. Bailey of Montpelier; Mrs. N. II
Morse of Waterbury, Mrs. NJ. M, Taplin
Mrs. j.. T. Keys, Miss Il. 5. Eaton OF
Orleans, Mrs. Annette w. Parmelee OF
Enosburg Falls and Mrs. w. 4. Ascough
of Hartford, Conn, the latter being one
of national note in the cause. They ar
rived in the morning and were taken
to the senator's home, where they ad-
dressed him regarding the suffrage ques-
tion.
The senator asked them "if they had
come for any pledges or any statement"
from him, and they replied emphatically
"No." They called attention to the pro-
posed Anthony" amendment to the con
stitution, which asks that the word
color" be changed to "sex" and argued
that If this was done it would save a
large amount of labor and other perplex-
ing bills.
The senator expressed no opinion, but
gave close attention to the remarks Of
the several ladies, nearly all of whom
spoke. Sufficient to say that these Ia
dies are decidedly earnest and very san
guine that sooner or later the cause
for which they are so Jealous viii be.
come reality. At noon they were en-
tertained by the senator at luncheon at
the inn. They departed pleased with
the reception and hearing given them.

FEDERAL CHARGES
AGAINST GERMANS
They Were Immediately Re-arrested on
Being Released in Local Court
at Weehawken, N. ].
To-day.

| New York, Oct. 26.--Robert Fay, a
lieutenant in the German army, Walter
Scholz and Paul Dasche were arraigned
in police court at Weehawken, N. D.,
to-day, charged with connection with an
alleged plot to blow up steamships sail
| ing from New York with munitions for
the allies. The men were discharged
| by the court but were Immediately re-
arrested by federal agents on charges
of conspiracy.
The complaint charged that the three
men in conjunction with DIR. Herbert
Kienzle, who was held in $4,000 bail
yesterday, and Max Brietung, still at
liberty, conspired to commit an offense
against the United States. Chief Flynn
of the secret service said he was in pos
session of information which showed
that Fay had told a man named Veig
the proper way to stop the munitions
shipments was TO blow up the chemical
works which were the fountain head and
could not be readily repaired. Fay also
said, Chief Flynn asserted, that when
he left Holland for America he had
with him a letter to very high official
but on the first day out he destroyed
it, fearing search.
Chief Flynn, when asked if he consid-
cred Captain Boy-ed and Captain Won
Papen implicated in any way, said that
Fay had absolved them from all partici-
patton.

ment OF Officer Henderson that he was

men on Granite street Saturday night to
