l.tndou, Oct. 23. The sensational ac
tivities of the militant cuffragettes lis

a cnusidenible degree the solid, sub
stantial, and really effective eumpaign
work being dime in F.nglniul by the

the policies, methods and aims of the
two antagonistic camps, Mrs. Millicent
(1. Fawcett, leader of the non-militant,
has piepnred for tho t'l'itcd I're.'s the
following article!
"The National I'nion of Women's
Suffrage Societies is the largest, the
oldest nud ah we believe, the best or
ganized mllriigp society In the I'nited
Kingdom, It is non party In character,
in the cure that it welcomes among its
members sympathizers with all political
parties or with nonp, It is, and always
has been strict in its methods of work.
The tion-mllitmit character of tho na
tional union is a matter nut only of ex
pediency but also of priuciple.
''Wo believe that the best mothod of
promoting the surer of our cause is to
appeal to what is the highest and best
in man, and not to what is worst; to
10110 ki sympathy, hi conscience, bis
sense of justice ami his courage, and
was warned that if he tried to loavo
he would be locked iu a cell immediate-lv.
Situation Vory Serious.
Washington, Oct. 23. Cipher mes
sages received at tho state department
today reported tho Mexican situation
extremely serious. It was denied that
intervention was under consideration.
Iluerta was understood to have de
cided to violnto tho constitution by run
ning to succeed himself as president
without even tho formality of a resig
nation to servo as a break between his
two terms. It was said he feared to
surrender his power to another for u
moment.
Monterey Surrounded.
Dallas, Tex., Oct. 23. A dispatch to
a newspaper hero today declares that
Monterey, Mexico, is surrounded by eon
stitutioiiulistas, who aro preparing to
make an assault. Tho report lacks con
firmation. ( not his terror and cowardice. Wo com-
; if nu mat nil too women s victories or. (
Uhc past fifty years have been won on j
, these lines. Women havo by peaceful i
irtniis, by education, by appeals to ex
I perienco and common sense, broken
diwii tho barriers which a generation
o ago shut out their sex from high-
er education, the professions, municipal
mii) local franchise, eniploymeii in tho
civil service, etc. The enormous pro
1,'iss of the women's movement him
ibeen unstained by crime or violence of
'uny kind.
I Peaceful Motliods Win.
" Moreover, in those cmintrieH and
'states where full parliamentary suffrage
,h,.s been won it has beeen won as tho
'result of peaceful propaganda. I need
u.lv mention the countries which have
already enfranchised their women, New
-aland, Australia, Norway, Finland,
'ten states in the l'nite.1 States and the
territory of Alaska, In not one of these

What Do You Think of
Pacific Depot, Mr. Krnttschnitt?
Ancient
It is understood that Julius Krntt
schnitt, Director of Maintenance and
Operation of the Southern Pacific will
be in the city this evening or tomorrow.
It is for thiB reason that The Capital
Journal today runs a cut of tho South
ern Pacific's palatial deiiot building
horo in the state capital and tho second j
city iu tho state. We do this for the
simplo reason that the company persist
ently overlooks it and does not have a
picture ruu in its magazine, tho Sunset,
and done iu colors. It would look bet
ter in colors, and wo would gladly pre
sent it. iu its true coloring if we could,
but our press will not do the coloring
and alas, our brain and descriptive pow
ers are not up to the standard to make
a word picture of it. Wo cannot do it

up with a plain unvarnished description.

and at the time was looked upon as a

bors of rescue parties, returning
to the surface from tho interior
of the wrecked Stag Canyon coal
mine, said this afternoon that
they had seen dozens of corpses
in the workings. Only six had
beeu brought to the surface, ow
ing to the rescuers' ill-termination
to save all their energies for the
possibly living.
Dawson, N. M., Oct. 23. With giant
ventilating Inns forcing fresh air into
the gas filled Number 2 Stage Canyon
coal mine as fast as engines will drive
them, rescue parties were still working
furiously this afternoon to rendi 21"
men' believed to be imprisoned iu the
workings n a result of yesterday's ex
plosion.
It wns estimated that there were 2s"
miners nt wnrk on the various levels of
No. 2 when the explosion occurred. Five
men in the upper level got out nt once.
Th. rescuers had brought It more to the
surface by 4 o'clock Miis morning, lie-
side the living men, 23 corpses had
been counted.
Three Mora Survivors.
This aftornooii three more survivors
were found. To nsieh the surface with
them the rescuers would have had to
carry them through several galleries
where the air wa hirvy with poison.

od big onos out again, but tho faithful
old cowbam has been faithful to all of
them, as it promises to bo to the gener
ations' that shall conio after them. It
Ims been modest in its demand, too. One
or two coats of paint and a few loads of
granito sand has been all it over re
quired in nearly 50 years to keep itself
dolled up and smiling when tho grout
ones of tho corporation stepped off tho
cars and used its gracious and hospita
ble shelter. It is only a couple of
blocks further from tho street car lines
now than it was 10 years ago, and do
spite its age anil decrepitude it still
does its duty uncomplainingly and to
best of its ability. Of course it is not
its fault that tho city has grown away
,ciiers, as they followed one another in
to the mine.
It was admitted that there seemed
small likelihood of finding moru surviv
ors In the mine, but tho rescuers were
taking no chat s. They wore detor
milieu that every man should be ac
counted for.
Most of those who still lived were
Horribly burned. The bodies of tho
dead were charred beyond recognition.
They were left where they lay, to rn
main until tint searchers had satisfied
themselves there were no moro still
alive to be saved from the mine.
May Only Fan Flames,
Mino officials said they were hopeful
the funs would soon clear tho workings
of the gns. Kxperls said they were
probably right, but that if there was
fire lu the mine, the ilmft would only
spread the fbitues more rapidly.
