England, voluntarily stood guard
while the Orduna under full speed
and In almost utter darkness, dashed
through the Irish sea. News OF the
sinking of the Falaba was secret
among the Orduna,s officers until the
liner reached Liverpool today. Her
passengers knew nothing Of the de-
stroyer convoy until they went on
deck this morning.
Officials OF Elders line announced

the Falaba- Eight bouies have beeh
recovered, 104 passengers and mem.

the Elder line officials are positive
that these have perished. Many of
the survivors were penniless. The
company provided them with trans
portation to their homes.
An inquest 1T Milford Haven TO-DAY
resulted in the formal finding that
the eight known victims OF the Fala-
ba disaster came to their deaths
through exposure, following torpedo

Holland Less Excited.
THE HAGUE, March 30-Public
opinion in Holland regarding alleged
German attacks upon Dutch shipping
apparently has quieted down.
This is due to the report Of the
Dutch marine authorities, disproving
the charge that German trawler
fired on the steamer Mecklenburg and
other information that the German

sons was that they saw in this coun-
try women engaged with men In polit-
ical warfare"
Just in this part of Mrs Pankhurst's
speech came her trump card.
''The Germans are not good pyscholo-
gists," she said They should have
known that the country In which the
women have courage to fight is a
country where you will find courage
in men. Where you have women
crushed, you will find men Of inferior
quality"
This paragraph in Mrs. Pankhurst's
speech always brings roar OF cheers.
"The Germans thought the suffra.
xists would continue their fight in
wartime" continued the militant
leader. What a mistake!
when you are attacked by the
enemy without, you have to shut your
eyes to your own troubles and form
up sideIby-side in defense of the ma
tiona1 interests.
I'VE all hate war, but there is this
difference between ourselves and the

termine to prosecute this war to such
an end that for generations to come,
we may be spared war"

LONDON, March 30.-Escorted by

Orduna sped up the Mersey and into
Liverpool today. Her officers had
been warned by wireless Of the fate
of the African liner Falaba and every

expectation OF a submarine attack.
The Orduna's wireless picked up the
news Of the sinking Of the Falaba
last night. The Orduna is but one
knot faster than the Falaba, which
was easily overhauled by the eighteen
knot German raider. Consequently
her officers were genuinely concerned
for her safety and took most extra

BROWNSVILLE, Texas, March 30.
Fear that a smallpox epidemic may
add to the perils Of the Vilhsta- Car
ranzistA fghting at Matamoras, Just
across the border, was felt here to-
day. following the discovery that a
wounded Mexican with the disease
had been brought here. He was i'm
mediately sent back across the bor-
der, but the city was apprehensive
that this case may mean others. and
that 1t may spread here.
Early indications today pointed to
another delay In the main battle.
Desultory firing and outpost skir-
mishes thus far have been the only
cessfully attempted to capture the
rison Saturday.
The city was somewhat calmer to-
day because OF dispatch OF United
States troops to protect the border.
Indications today were that Villas
forces would shift their operations
westward in an endeavor to comply
with American demands that shells
must not drop into the United States.
There was still grave danger, how
ever. that this, will not be avoided en-
ttrely. and that Americans will suf-
fer as result.
