HAVE THREATENED
MORE MILITANCY
English Suffragettes Ready to Re
sume Work of Destruction—Dis
turb Abbey Services.
LONDON, Nov. 12.—Suffragette
leaders announce that their militant
campaign is about to be resumed
more vigorously than ever. Various
scattered outrages were reported
last week, the chief being the burn
ing of a house at Hampton-on-Thataes,
long occupied by the Chancellor of
the Diocese of London, by two wo
men, one of whom, Mary Richardson,
has a big record of militant outrag
es.
A band of militants interrupted the
morning service at Westminster Ab
bey last Sunday by chanting tho
words:
“God save Annie Kenney, Harriet
Kerr and Beatrice Sanders. Their
enemies torture them, for they know
their cause is righteous. Save all
who are persecuted and suffer for
conscience saks.”
Vv hen one party of women was
forcibly -ejected from the Abbey an
other took up the chant and had i
be turned out by force.
HEAR BECKER
CASE BEC. 1
ALBANY, Nov. 12.—The Court of
Appeals today set the arguments in
the cases of ex-Police Lieut. Becker
and the four gunmen under sentence
of death for the killing of Herman
Bosenthal for Dec. 1. The gunmen's
cases previously had been set for Nov.
17. A statement given out by the
court explained that the new date
was chosen in order that Chief Judge
Cullen and Judge Gray, who retire
on Dec. 31, may participate in the
decisions. Said the statement:
“The records are voluminous, and
it is necessary, under the plenary
power conferred upon the court in
capital cases, that the whole evidence
should be read and examined, besides
which the cases may involve nice
questions of all what will require
careful consideration. The court
should not feel constrained to hurry
its deliberations lftcause of the nec
essity of rendering a decision before
a given time. Oh the day that has
been fixed for the arguments, Dec.
1, a full court will be constituted, of
which neither Chief Judge Cullen nor
Judge Gray will form a part.”

MASKED BANDITS
ROB A BANK
Make Getaway With $10,000 and Have
Running Fight With Citizens—
One Hundred Shots Fired.
NEW HAZELTON, B. C., Nov. 12.—
Five masked robbers entered the
Union bank here today and shot the
cashier before he had a chance to
'draw his gun, which was under the
desk counter, then they stole $10,000
and made tneir getaway in spite of
the fight made by the police and citi
zens, who opened fire upon the ban
dits.
The citizens kept up the fight for
twenty minutes, following the fleeing
bandits until they stole an automo
bile and disappeared. More than a
hundred shots were fired and several
citizens were slightly injured.
The Northwest mounted police have
started to trail the robbers and a
description of them has been tele
graphed to all towns through which
the men are likely to pass.
The cashier, it is expected, will
live, the ball having passed through
no vital organ.
