MILITANTS KEEPING THE POLICE BUSY Release of Mrs, Pankhurst Their” Price of Peace, London, Dec. 16.—A _ suffragette- threw a hammer through the window of a police station and then followed: the hammer inside when a policeman arrested her. The militants are boasting that they will keep up their annoyances and destruction as long: as the government continues to arrest. Mrs. Pankhurst. The American suffragette, Miss: Zelle Emerson of Jackson, Mich., was: the central figure of a furious scrim- mage between the police and suffra- gettes and their supporters in Bow street. Miss Emerson and three men were arrested. The suffragettes attempted a dem- onstration before the house of coun- cilors. One hundred police, mounted and afoot, quickly corralled the dem- onstrators, and, failing to dissuade: them from their proposed action, charged the procession. They seized Miss Emerson and men and women rushed to her rescue. A wild scene followed and women and@ children were thrown to the ground and trampled. When the field was cleared the injuries turned out not to be serious. The police captured many suffra- gette banners which they tore to shreds. The suffragette arson squad set fire to a lumber yard at Devonport and de- stroyed property worth over $400,000. His Thrilling Experience.
