ly blocked all entrances to the thor
oughfare and twenty of the more mil
itant suffragettes, who tried to break
through the lines, were arrested
charged with interfering with the po
lice. For a time there was a scene of
great disorder, women time and time
again throwing themselves valiantly
against the double line of police, only
to be forced back, or. If they were
unusually persistent, to be handed
over to constables, who marched them
off to the police station amid cheers,
hoots and hisses from the throng.
The police finally cleared the street
and the women who were not arrested
returned to their hall, where they

hoped to clear up the mystery In de
