lice Magistrate C. J. Smith this morn
ing in police court when she was ar
raigned before him on u charge or dis
orderly conduct.
Mrs. Brown was arrested by Officer
Frankhouser on Second avenue yester

storv to the magistrate this morning:
"My husband is dead. 1 was keep

wanted me to marry him. I wouldn't

took my baby aw ay from me and I have

DECRY WAR ON DEMOCRATS
"Antis" Call Suffragists Unpatriotic
for Opposing Statesmen.
Washington. D. C, Sept. 22. The
declaration of war by the Congression
al union, a big faction of woman suf
fragists, against all democrats, irre
spective of the services of these men
to the country, occasioned yesterday
afternoon, a slashing attack upon the,
ui.ion by Mrs. Arthur M. Podge, presi
dent of the National Association Op
posed to Woman Suffrage. The union
according to Mrs. Podge, "has no re-1
gard for patriotism" and because of
petty resentment against the party in
power for not having made woman suf
frage a national institution would like
"to destroy able statesmen" and de
prive the public of the services of emi
nent men.
