Commons Passes Measure to
Second Reading With Ma
jority of 109.
ACTION IS THEN SHELVED
Property Qualification Is Provided,
and This Feature Is Source of
Objection . by Opposition.
Asquith Makes Speech.
LONDON, July 12. The House of Com
mons, by a vote of 299 to 190, tonight
passed the second reading of the woman's
suffrage bill for which David James
Shackleton, labor member from the
Clltheroe division of Lancashire, is the
sponsor.
The bill provides for granting the par
liamentary franchise to women who have
property qualifications and who already
exercise the franchise in municipal elec
tions. The unprecedented large majority of
109 gives an Impetus to woman suffrage,
but many obstacles must yet be overcome
before the principle Is legalized by the
necessary majority of 145. The House
subsequently referred the bill to commit
tee of the whole. This means that the
bill will be shelved until next year.
Dill Meets Objection.
The interesting debate showed that
many leading men. Including Winston
Spencer Churchill, secretary of the Home
Affairs, and A. J. Balfour, leader of the
opposition, who favored the principle of
woman suffrage, objected to the present
bill and contended that the whole country
must pronounce Unreservedly in favor of
women voting before Parliament sanc
tioned such a change in the constitution.
Premier Asquith, In a strong speech
against the bill, declared that if women
had a vote, they must inevitably have
seats in Parliament . and might take the
, Speaker's chair or sit In the Cabinet.
Women Gather to Hear Result.
Mr. Balfour contested this view. He
said that it was not government by con
sent to exclude a large class of the com
munity from voting.
Chancellor Lloyd George, as a strong
supporter of woman suffrage, said if the
promoters of the biii would promise to
reintroduce the bill in an acceptable
form he would support It. Austin" Cham
berlain opposed women's suffrage in any
shape or form.
A great crowd of suffragettes awaited
the result of the vote outside of the
House, but there was no disorder.

make arrangements connected w!th the
new scheme.
Some official announcement is expected

FRANCE MAY CHANGE TIME
Cabinet Considers Adoption of West

PARIS. July 12. The Cabinet has
decided to submit a bill for the adop
tion of Western European time In
France. During the old days of en
mity toward England the French
steadily refused to accept standard
time, maintaining the solar time of
Paris, which is nine minutes slower.
The confusion resulting, especially in
telephone communications with Eng
land, as well as the change In Franco
English relations, is responsible for
the decision

REVOLT PLOT FAILS
Stockbroker Behind Cuban
Conspiracy?
INTERVENTION IS SOUGHT?
Revolution 1-ke, Declares One of
Prisoners, Who Kxpected to Re
ceive $20,000 Plan to Break
Market by Speculator.
HAVANA, July 12. The purpose of
the conspiracy for which the mulatto.
Colonel Jorge Valera, and his associ
ates were arrested yesterday, was to
compel American intervention, accord
ing to the government's information.
The Secretary of the Interior has is
sued an official statement that it was
learned some days ago that it was de
signed to blow up bridges and rail
ways, and destroy property of foreign
ers with the hope of compelling this
result.
The suspects, being poor and ignor
ant and .most of them negroes, the Sec
retary believed they were acting under
the instigation and orders of persons
of superior intelligence. Further In
vestigation resulted in the discovery
that the ' .suspscts were in constant
communication with a stock broker
whose name Is unknown.
Stockbroker In Deal
A description of him has been ob
tained and the police are making a
search for him.
The arrests were delayed until the
four conspirasors had started for Viaja
Bremeja, whither a trunk containing
arms and dynamite -had been shipped
the same day and where, it is believed,
they Intended to begin operations.
When arrested, one of the conspir
ators, named Valeriano Pico, made a:
voluntary statement declaring that the
whole conspiracy was a fake and mere
ly an attempt to make a pretense of
uprising. Its purpose, he said, was not
to cause American intervention, but
simply o break the local stock mar
ket by committing some damage not
serious to property.
Only four persons were concerned In
the conspiracy, he said, the rest of the
eight arrested knowing nothing of the
plot.
Government Agent Accused.
The prisoner further declared that
the plot was first suggested by an
agent of the government, who informed
him he knew an individual willing to
pay Pico and his four comrades $5000
each, and to furnish explosives if they
would go into the country and start
a fake revolution.
The government agent declined to
give the name of his principal, but as
sured Pico he was connected with the
Bourse and desired simply to depress
the market.
A few days later three conspirators
started for the scene of operations,
Pico remaining in Havana to receive
the promised $20,000. According to a
statement made to Vlcento Blanco,
who i professed to have some knowl
edge of the conspiracy, Pico informed
him that Senor San Miguel, the editor
of La Lucha, was the person financ
ing the conspiracy.
The authorities apparently attach no
importance to this charge as Senor San
Miguel sailed for New York yesterday.
HUGHES AND T. R. MEET

We discussed direct nominations. That
is all I can say."
Woodruff's Visit Important.
The general opinion is that the first
tangible results of tonight's conference
will not .be made known until the Initial
steps In the programme outlined by the
Colonel and Governor Hughes are taken.
On the other hand, It Is possible that
the full plan will not be disclosed until
the Saratoga convention has been called
to order.
Nothing was learned here tonight as to
when the Governor and the Colonel will
meet again. Mr. Woodruff's visit tomor
row .is awaited with, interest, for he is
one of the men with whom the Colonel

ROOSEVELT TO TALK TO ALL
Pittsburg Speech to Be Heard by
Labor and Capital Alike.
PITTSBURG, July 12. American
workmen Germans, We'lsh, Italians,
Poles, Hungarians, Croatlans, negroes
all will sit side by side with captains
of industry and representatives of the
Chamber of Commerce and other civic
organizations to hear Theodore Roose

Civic Commission last night when they
planned to extend invitations to the
various organizations of men of foreign
birth. Only those who have sworn al
legiance to the United States will be
eligible as guests.
The Roosevelt audience will therefore
be representative of more than the
wealth of Pittsburg, and will be an as
sembly unique in the history of public
gatherings.
DR. WILEY STANDS FIRM
BELIEVES HE WILL WIS FIGHT
OX BEXZOATE OF SODA.
Action Nof American Institute of
Homeopathy in Rescinding Ac
tion Subject of Comment.
WASHINGTON", July 12. Although
the American Institute of Homeopathy,
at its convention at Pasadena, Cal., yes
terday adopted a resolution rescinding
Its action taken last year condemning
the use of benzoate of soda, as a food
preservative. Dr. Wiley, chief chemist
of the Department of Agriculture, has
stronger opinions than ever before on
that subject.
But Dr. Wiley's views did not prevail
in the Department of Agriculture as the
board appointed by Secretary Wilson to
consider questions arising under the
pure food law sanctioned the use of
benzoate of soda, as a food preserva
tive. "The developments in the last year,"
said Dr. Wiley today, "have accenuated
my opinions as to the harmful" charac
ter of benzoate of soda as a food pre
servative. I expect to see that view
sustained by the Federal courts, as
evidence submitted recently in Indiana
cases points that way."
HOMEOPATHS ASSAIL WILEY
Convention Praises Taft and Wilson
for Their Position.
PASADENA. Cal., July 12. Following
their action of yesterday, rescinding the
vote of last year condemning benzoate of
soda as a food preservative, the dele
gates of the 66th convention of the Amer
ican Institute of Homeopathy by unani
mous vote denounced today the section
of the pure food law which prohibits the
use of preservatives in food and the use
of sulphur in the curing of California
fruits.
Immediately after the vote was taken
telegrams were sent to President Taft
and James H. Wilson, Secretary of Agri
culture, statihg that the action repre
sented the sentiments of 12,000 physicians,
and congratulating Mr. Taft and his
cabinet officer on their firm stand "in
favor of the farmer, fruit-grower and
preserving factories and against the per
nicious rulings Of Dr. ,A. H. Wiley, chief
of the United States Bureau of Chemis
try." Narragansett Pier, R. I., was chosen
for the next convention place of the
homeopaths. It will -begin June 25, 1911.

Brings Cheers.
HERRMANN IS " ELECTED
Rose City Herd Confident of Success
In Securing Convention Ad
dress by Moser Starts Out
burst of Applause. ,
DETROIT. Mich., July 12. (Special.)
With cheers of enthusiasm the Grand
Lodge of the Elks' opening session at
the Lyceum Theater this morning ten
dered Gus C. Moser and JPortland Lodge
an ovation, when Mr. Moser In a splen
did address tendered Portland's hos
pitality for the 1912 convention.
Mr. Moser's address, though brief,
was to the point, and when he had
finished the continued cheering. left no
doubt in the minds of any that the
Grand Lodge was glad of the oppor
tunity to hold the 1912 session in the
beautiful City of Roses. Mr. Moser's
address was well timed and was made
immediately after the Atlantic City
invitation was extended for 1911 and re
ceived even more hearty indorsement
and support than the great Atlantic
resort.
Prolonged Applause Given Portland.
Dwelling on the. manifold advantages
of Portland asthe logical place for the
convention, Mr. Moser was compelled
to wait, at several instances, for the
applause to cease that he could pro
ceed. There is joy in the heart of every
Portland delegate tonight, for they feel
assured they have cinched the Grand
Lodge. During the last three days'
advertising campaign of the Portland
headquarters In the handsome parlors
of the Ponchartrain, Detroit's fineist
hostery, had been visited by thousands
of people. In-fact,- from 9 in the morn
ing until midriight standing-room has
been at a premium. Beautiful Oregon
roses have been given to every lady
visitor, while souvenir badges, watch
fobs, Oregon booklets and postal cards
have been distributed with good re
sults. Rose City Headquarters Popular.
Refreshments as well as the souven
irs have at all times been at the dis
posal of the visitors, gratis, and there
is no doubt whatever that Portland's
headquarters have been by far the
most popular. The' success practically
securing the convention for Portland
means much for the Rose City, as It
is evident here that It has been of In
estimable benefit to Detroit. Portland
Lodge will continue to keep open house
in the Ponchartrain parlors until the
close of the Grand Lodge.

the selection of a grand secretary.
Fred C. Robinson, of rubuque, la..
Lodge No. 297. incumbent, was opposed
by David McArron, of Port Huron, and

Mich. The largest vote ever cast for
an officer of the order. It is said, was
polled in this contest, completely
swamping for the . time the election
committee. Robinson was re-elected.
