3 THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. WEDNESDAY. MAY 7. I'M:’,. SUFFRAGETTES TRr II WRECK Bomb Squad Nearly Succeeds in Attempt to Dynamite Saint Paul's in London. Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian. LONDON, May 7.—The suffragette liynamtte squad to-day attempted to blow up St. Paul's Cathedral, the larg est and most magnificent Protestant church In the world. A few minutes later another bomb was discovered near the building oc cupied by The Star, a Liberal news paper which has been supporting the Government in its tight against grant ing the franchise to women. A third bomb was discovered in the business district near a building oc cupied by a firm of wholesale chem ists. But for the vigilance of the police and of special watchmen a larg e area of London would have been blown up. A policeman on his beat near St. Paul’s Cathedral saw two women emerge from the church during the early morning hours. His suspicions were aroused and he investigated. At the foot of the altar he saw a spir- terlng fuse and extinguished it with his foot. Near Explosion When Found. The fuse was attached to a pow erful bomb and had almost burned to the ignition point when the police man arrived. Delay of a. few mo ments would have meant the possible destruction of the Cathedral. The bomb was taken to Scotian 1 Yard where it was examined. it was found to contain gunpowder, guncotton and dynamite. It had two detonators. The bomb which was discovered near The Star office in Boverie Street was of similar con struction. Since the defeat in the House of Commons last night of the female suf frage bill by a vote of 266 against 219, the militants have been aroused to a pitch of frenzy heretofore not seen in their campaign for the vote Government is Alarmed. Their anarchistic actions are caus ing grave alarm to the officers of the rnment. who are becoming more and more perplexed as to how to stop the outrages. Leaders of the militants are threat- ■ ning to destroy all the imposing aibredals in England. Another threat is made to kill every prize-winning dog and race horse. This threat was contained in a letter received by Miss Violet Cross, owner of Choo-Tai, the $10,000 prize-winning Pekinese, which was poisoned by mil itants. The letter said: Will Stop at Nothing. “Madame—We are very sorry your pretty dog was sacrificed, but our rules must be inexorably enforced, and we are resolved to stop at noth ing now. Every valuable prize-win ning dog or race horse will be maimed or killed when the chance presents itself until we get votes.'' Never before in its history has Scot land Yard been so active. Special squads to deal with suffragettes are being formed to patrol the city. A constant guard will be kept around Westminster Abbey, for the women are threatening to blow up that mag nificent edifice. Tried to Assure Blast. From Scotland Yard the St. Paul's bomb was taken to the Home Office. It was found that in addition to the fuse the bomb had an electrical ap paratus to insure an explosion in case the fuse went out. Private watchmen have been guarding the cathedral since the suffrage militancy became acutely dangerous, and the police are puzzled to ascertain how the women entered the church with out being seen. As a result of the attempt upon the cathedral, the edifice was closed to the public. Even foreign tourists who were unable to prove their identity were refused admission. Hanging Is Urged for Suffrage Dynamiters. NEW YORK, May 7.—Lady Swayne, wife of the Governor of Brit ish Honduras, declares hanging is the best cure for English suffragettes who throw bombs.
