Adams wrote her husband John Adams

framing the laws Of the infant nation

care and attention are not paid to the
ladies, we are determined to torment
rebellion and will not hold ourselves
bound to obey any laws in which we
have no voice." w. v

Ihe change VIII become effective
in time for the 100000 women
voters of the country to vote in the
presidential elections this fall, unless
the lower house of the Tennessee as
sembly rescinds the action taken in
passing the bill. ~
After passing the amendment the
house adjourned until ten o'clock to-
morrow. ~
Suffrage and anti-suffrage force
heightened their efforts for the final
fight and both sides were claiming
a victory. The suffrage forces have
the advantage of today's victory
The next step in the ratification OF
the amendment will be the certifica-
tion of the action of the assembly to
the secretary of the United States,
who upon receipts of this will issue
a proclamation declaring the amend.
ment ratified.
Fear Court Fight
Suffrage leaders said there would
be no Stacking Of their efforts as
they desire at least one other state
to ratify the amendment, as they ex-
pect fight will be made on the Ten
ressee action because of the clause
in the states constitution saying that
no assembly can act on an amend
ment not submitted before the men,
bers were elected
The Attorney General of the state
has declared that this clause is un-
constitutional.
The action Of the house is the
elimination of fight into which can
didates for the presidency and ma
'tional political organizations were
drawn. On the action of the Ten
nessee legislature, called into special
men that they would win the ballot
this fall. ......... ...
One by one the states of the union
had ratified suffrage. Women saw
their hopes for vote this fall dy-
ing when the Tennessee assembly
was called into session. 1t is the
36th state to ratify. Three-fourth of
the states must ratify an amendment
to the federal constitution. Suffrage
is the 10Th amendment.
Nashville has been turned into
real battle-ground during the special
session, which opened last week.
NEW FIGHT IN n. C.
Raleigh, N. c., Aug. 1S.-Suffragist
leaders predicted today that an at
tempt would be made, probably be-
fore evening, to have the North Car
oina senate to reconsider the vote
by which it decided to postpone ac-
tion on ratification of the federal
suffrage amendment until the next
regular session of the legislature.
The vote on postponement was rs
to 23. ..-
Suffrage supporters were taken off
their feet when Senator Warren, the
opposition floor leader, introduced
the postponement resolution.
Unable to muster their strength
they saw the resolution adopted at
the close of day Of bitter debate.
Suffrage leaders attributed the de-
feat to weak kneed" members who
wanted "to get another word from
their folks"
The Warren resolution makes the
question of ratification an issue in
the general election here in Novem-
Der, and suffrage opponents were
shouting when they left, the senate
chamber that they would "beat it
again in November"
The blow came as a surprise to
suffrage proponents. They had no
advance word Of the opposition's
plan of action and the postponement
resolution went through before they
could move to block it's adoption.

.UMPIRES HOLD
MAYS AT FAULT
FOR 'TRICKERY'
Evans and Dineen Charge That
He Resorted to Rough
ing Ball
CHAPMAN'S BODY HOME

Boston, Aug. 1S.-The explanation
by Carl Mays, of the New York Amer
clans, that the killing of Ray Chap
man, star shortstop of the Cleveland
American League team, was due u
rough spot on the ball Mays pitch.
ed which caused it to take an un-
expected twist was the subject of a
statement issued today by Umpiras
William Evans and William Dineen
OF the American League. ~
"No pitcher in the American league
resorted to trickery more than Carl
Mays in attempting to rough a bal:
in order to get break on it which
would make it more difficult to hit,
the statement reads.
Until the new pitching rules came
into force, which put severe pen
atty on pitcher roughing the ball
Mays constantly used to drag the
ball across the pitching rubber IN
order to roughten the surface. Hun
dreds of balls were thrown out every
year because Of this act.
Poor Alfbi
The umpires took notice OF a re-
mark attributed to Mays that Umpire
Thomas Connolly, who was behind
the plate, was responsible for the ac-
.cident because he permitted a rough
ball to stay in the game. The UNI
pires characterized this alleged state
ment as "an alibi" that came with
poor grace from the pitcher.
"A short time ago" they added, tine
club owners complained to President
johnson that too many balls were be-
ing thrown out. President Johnson
sent out bulletin to umpires to keep
the balls in the game as much as
possible except those where were
dangerous.
Await Speakers Word
The players of the Boston and De-
troit clubs, who were at the point
yesterday of signing petition to
have Mays banned from the game
today awaited word from Manager
Speaker of the Cleveland club as to
his opinion of the pitch which killed
Chapman and his views on their pro-
posed action.
Several asserted that regardless OF
any general action they would not
go to bat against Mays again.
