B yAssociated Press.


 WASHINGTON, July 1S.-President Wilson today issued pardons to the sixteen suffragettes who are serving a sixty day sentence in the work house for an attempt to re-establish picketing in front of the White House gates few days ago.
 When the women appeared before the police court judge Tuesday, much to the surprise of everybody he sen- fenced them to term of sixty days in the work house after declaring that the previous leniency shown the wo- men had produced no other effect than to make them bolder.
 The judge declared that the women could go on hunger strike If they wished to pose as martyrs to the suf- frage cause but they would be con- pelled to serve their sentence just the same
 In announcing the granting of exc cutive clemency to the offending wo- men Secretary Tumulty stated to the newspaper correspondents that the pardons must speak for themselves and the White House would have no statement to make concerning the reasons for the presidents action.

the decisive stage of the conflict be- tween the forces of order and disor- der is rapidly approaching and the next few days may witness the final denouement. The ultra socialist ele- ment is apparently determined to un- seat the government it possible al though large number of the lead CTS have been apprehended and order ed to leave the empire. A letter from General Brusloffs chief of staff, re ceived by one of the cabinet mem- bers Says that Nikosas Lenie, the radical socialist leader, who is cur rently believed to be behind the re- cent disturbances, is again attached to the German general staffff, posi- tion he occupied before the revolu- ton permitted him to return to Rus sia to commence his work of sedition against the new government.
 Evidence that Lenie was working in the interest of Germany has also been disclosed by the confession Of one of his former lieutenants, who ad- mits that the socialist leader had enlisted his assistance in. spreading disaffectlon in the hope of bringing about an early peace with Germany.
