TTTE MORNING OREGOXTAX. TUTTItSDAT, JUNE 11, 1914. 8 SYLVIA PANKHURST IS ARRESTED EARLY Police Defeat Militants - At tempting to Interview Pre mier at Westminster. STRATEGIC MOVE WINS Lady Carlisle, as Head of Liberal Federation, Denounces Spurious . Chivalry That Stays Penal- ties Because of Sex. LONDON. June 10 Miss Sylvia Pankhurst was not even permitted to approach Westminster tonigrht to in terview Premier Asquith. The proposed visit to the Prim Min ister was arranged some days ago by Miss Pankburst and other ' militant leaders, and . it was decided that she should be carried shoulder high in the precession, as she was not considered strong: enough to bear the strain of what promised to be an arduous Jour ney. Before the procession had gone a mile Miss Pankhurst was arrested for the eighth time since she was sen tenced to mix months' imprisonment for Inciting: language in Byde Park and conveyed to Holloway JalL Dramatic Effect Studied. The demonstration was organized with all the cleverness of the suf fragettes for dramatic effect. A. crowd of 10,000 people gathered at 8 o'clock at the Junction of Commercial road and High street. White Chapel, where two processions were to Join about the same hour. Suddenly from an upper window of the house where Miss Pankhurst re sided appeared the surpllced figures of Rev. Mr. Wills, and Sylvia by his side, looking: ill and careworn. The clergy man addressed the waiting: crowd, ad jured the people to keep order and of fered a prayer. Invoking divine pro tection for the militant leader. Miss Pankhurst also addressed- the crowd to the effect that It might be the last time she would have such a privilege. "But if I sacrifice my life in this cause," she said, "it will not have been in vain If you will carry on the fight in the same spirit." Miss Pankhurst Borne on Litter. The procession then formed, headed by Mr. Wills, Miss Pankhurst being borne In a litter by four stalwart car riers. The band struck up the "Marsel laise" and the procession started under escort of a large body of mounted and foot police. The crowds grew steadily, but the police had carefully laid their plans and when the procession had ar rived at a point where the narrow road and the tramway traffic compelled It to divide a sharp command was given. The street was quickly cordoned by police and, before her supporters were aware v hat had happened Sylvia Pank hurst was under arrest and was being whisked away In a taxicab to Jail, fol lowed by a few shrieking women. Disheartened at the loss of their leader, the women re-formed their ranks, but made slow progress. A body of students attempted to interfere with them and create disturbances, but were foiled by police, who arrived in such numbers all along the route that they were as numerous as those in the pro cession. There was little enthusiasm among the marchers and the openly-expressed hostility of the populace dampened the ardor of the demonstration, so that by the time it reached the Strand the po lice had little difficulty in dispers ing it. . Mrs. Pankhurst Escapes. Mrs. Emraallne Pankhurst again suc ceeded during the night in evading the police, who were 'closely watching the house in Grosvenor Square from which ehe had been recently conducting the campaign against the peace of the members of the royal family at Buck ingham Palace and other places. The raid on the offices of the Wom en's Social and Political Union yester day, like the previous one early in May, dkd not produce the results expected by the police. The documents seized re vealed few names of public interest. Chief Inspector James McBride said today the published report of the dis closure during the raid that members of the royal family, including the Prince of Wales, had contributed to the funds of the suffragettes was ab ' solutely groundless. A resolution strongly condemning militancy and demanding urgent action by the government to stop the reign of anarchy was adopted today by a large majority at the conference of the Women's Liberal Federation, now in session in London.'1 Lady Carlisle, the president, de nounced as "spurious sentimentality and a travesty of chivalry" the theory that women should not be made to suffer the same penalties meted out to men under the law. Miss Bertha Kyland, the suffragette .vandal, who yeBterday destroyed with a butcher's cleaver George Romney's "Portrait of a Boy," in the Birming ham Art Gallery, was today commit ted for trial. During-' the hearing she created a scene in court, shrieking without cessation and quoting scrip ture. She used the text: "I came not to send peace, but a sword." as Justifi cation for her act and she declared the militants were "working with divine guidance for purity and righteousness." "No surrender," was her parting cry as she went to the cells. HOMESTEADER MAKES PLEA Malheur County Man Says Big Stock Company Harasses Him. SALEM, Or., June 19. (Special.) complaint Dy ij.
