To CEASE PIckETING

Washington, July 20.-CIothing, baths
and toilet water was the unanimous
cry of sixteen suffragists when they
arrived here from the District work
house at Occoquan, Va, after having

tired, soiled and out of sorts. They
had had no chance to wash their faces
since morning and had not been able
to dress their cOiffures to the best ad-
vantage before the little workhouse
mirrors, and the ride had played havoc
with their hair.
All the women believe that their SEN
tences and the action of the president
has served materially to strengthen
their cause. Z hey look for further ac-
tion In their behalf from the White
House. Temporarily they have drop
ped their picketing plans. Tonight
they will hold an open air demonstra-
tion at the foot of the monument to
Benjamin Franklin In Pennsylvania
avenue.
Dudley Field Malone, collector of the
port Of New York, attorney for the
suffragists, made this statement:
''The pardon Of the president is ac-
cepted by the defendants as an ac-
acknowledgement of the grave injustice
done to sixteen American women in
their efforts to obtain personal liberty
in the passage of the federal amend
ment."
