Dating from the hrst group calieoo
Pin convention IN lS4S TO discuss
woman's rights, the national associa-
ton, under various names and with
eyer-eXpanGing ambition and inten-
ton, holds the record for 90 years
OF organized work for woman suffrage,
distinguished alike by unswerving
devotion to the cause and consistent
dignity of method. Every year for
the eighteen years between lSiS and
1896 woman's rights conventions held
the women OF the country together.
In 1866 the American Equal Rights
Association was formed and the
woman's Fighters merged into it. That
was the first national effort TO secure
reoogn On OF the fact that the sut-
trage Lestlon reverts back TO the
United States constitution. BY 1869
It had become appai ent that woman
suffrage needed It's own special or
ganization, and under the initiative
OF Susan b. Anthony the National
Woman Suffrage Association was
formed. Next year another national
suffrage organization was effected
under the name OF the American
Woman Suffrage Association and the
leadership OF Lucy Stone. IL 1925
the two joined forces as 'he National
American Woman Suffrage Associa-
ton. There, in nutshell, is the
seventy years of history of the organ
iZation whose officers are leading the
fight today for nationwide suffrage,
For years Miss Anthony was at the
head OF the National" In 1900 She
was succeeded by Mrs Carrie Chap

later and was succeeded by a woman
whose golden oratory has made her
famous from coast to coast, ~ Anna
Howard Shaw. Dr. Shaw served for
q bakers dozen or years and when
she resigned in turn in 1915, once
more the choice OF the organization
fell irrcsistibly upon Mrs. Gait, DR.,

A World Famous Leader.
Mrs. Gait Is world famous Tor her
comprehensive grasp OF the woman
question and for her genius for organ
ization. Not this country alone, but
nearly every other country in the
civilized world has felt and responded
TO her effort to organize it's women
for suffrage. Besides being president
OF the national association she is at
the head OF the international Woman
Suffrage Alliance.
Federal and State Ro1ds TO Suffrage.

About coo, ooo-Flower Of
Teuton Empires Marine.

New York, April 6.-Federal officials
seized German merchant vessels that
took refuge in Atlantic ports at the
beginning of the war, almost imme-
diately after congress passed the resO-
luton declaring a state of war be-
tween the United States and Germany.
The collector of the port at Boston
was the first to act.
Port officers acted on orders issued
by the secretary of the treasury. It is
! understood that this move does not
involve confiscation and that the YES
sells are held for the present as a
measure of safety.
German vessels now in American
ports number 81, with gross tonnage
Of about 100000 This includes %
ships in refuge at the Philippine
islands, IL at Honolulu and one at
Pagopago, a port of the Pacific islands.
The ships lying at their slips at the
Hamburg American and North German
Lloyd docks at New York and Ho-
boken include some of the flower of
| the German merchant marine. The
Vaterland, one of the largest vessels
in the world, is by far the most valu-
able. Next in size is the George Wash
| ington, 25,57O tons. Others of more
than $4,000 tons are the President
Grant, President Lincoln and Kaiser
Wilhelm II. Four Austrian steamships
also are tied up here.
The ships taken, with their value
and tonnage, is officially announced as
