SUFFRAG|STS WILL
INDORSE NOTHING
Will Back Neither Candidate
Nor Party, Three Plans
Are Proposed

Atlantic City, n. j., Sept. 6.-To no
party or no candidate will go the in
dorsement of the National Woman Suf-
farge association which went into con-
vention here today. This much was
decided upon after struggle in the ex-
ecutive committee which began early
yesterday afternoon and lasted until
well towards morning today.
The program arranged by the execu-
tive committee calls for the reelection
of Mrs. Carrie Chapman Gait as presi-
dent and the election of a vice-presi-
dent to succeed Mrs. Frank NJ. Roens
ing.
More than thousand women, repre-
sentatives of 100000 suffragists,
were present at the formal opening of
the convention in st. Paul IS church to-
day.
Suffrage leaders supporting three diff
ferent views as to the best manner of
obtaining votes for women engaged i'll
three cornered fight this afternoon.
Following the discussion the delegates
were to vote whether the association
should concentrate its efforts on getting
the vote through national congression
al legislation or through action of the
state legislators, or whether they should
continue the present plan of supporting
both federal and state campaign,
Miss Laura Clay, of Lexington, KY,
a states rights advocate, urged the suf
fragists to center their activities on get
ting suffrage legislation through their
state legislatures.
"Coercion of some sort will be neces-
sary to force enough states to ratify a
woman suffrage amendment to obtain
the necessary twOthirds," said Miss
Clay.
Mrs. Ida Hustled Harper, of New
York, who advocated concentrated eff
fort in behalf of the federal amendment
said:
"We have now obtained enough
equal suffrage states to make our mea-
sure q national political issue and to
force its endorsement by the platforms
of all five parties.'
Mrs. Raymond Brown, vice-chairman
of the New York State Suffrage asso-
citation, urged the association to con-
tinue its support of both national and
state campaigns and to maintain strict
neutrality in regard to political par
ties.

Market Unusually Brisk

New York, Sept. 6.-The New York
Evening Sun financial review today
says:
On wide and active market, which,
however, the larger proportion of the
total business was provided by a rela-
lively small group of stocks, prices
moved in the direction of higher lev.
els in the best part of the day, with
new records reported for United States
Steel common, which crossed par, for
the Mercantile Marine shares, for In.
spiration Copper and for several other
less prominent issues. Although the
advance brought out tremendous offer
ings in the leading securities, the mar.
Eet exhibited an equally tremendous
capacity for absorption, especially in
the case of steel, which was sold prac-
tieally in reams on stop orders in the
neighborhood of its high for the day.
The general market was reactionary
in tne late trading but declines from
the high point as a rule were small.
