Woman Suffrage in England

THE militant campaign in the interests of votes for women in England continues unabated. Mrs. Pankhurst, the head of the movement, has been released from jail on account of her physical condition due to her hunger strike, and an American suffragette who had been imprisoned in London for the same cause is also released for the same reason, and is now under the care of physicians. The reckless attempts to destroy property, and seemingly without regard to the danger to human life, continue. An empty car on a passenger-train was set on fire by a bomb, and destroyed, endangering the lives of all the passengers on the train. A close guard is being kept around Nottingham Palace and other public buildings. A can filled with gunpowder and connected with an electric fuse was found in front of the Bank of England. The can with its lighted fuse was thrown into a fountain.
