London, May 7.—The fate the woman's suffrage sealed last night by against it of more than fifty Nationalists. Even Premier As- quith spoke against the passage of the measure. He _ said that while he to some extent favored extending the suffrage he would most certainly resign before he would give his vote to the mili- tant suffragettes. (Che bill whereby it was sought to enfranchise’ six millious of women was rejected by a major- ity of 47, the vote standing 266 against to 219 for. Whether there is any chance that the pres- ent parliament will pass a bill of a more limited character is doubted. The Nationalists fear- ed to allow the bill to pass even a second reading, as it might lead to a parliamentary struggle which would be likely to end in dissolutign of parliament before the home rule bill becomes law. of bill was the votes London, May 5.—At the close of the ambassadors’ conference in London today an official com- munication was’ issued reading as follows: “The fact that the King of Montenegro has placed the fate of Seutari in the hands of the powers is a_matter of great sat- isfaction. The governments of the powers will now consider what arrangements shall be made in the immediate future in regard to the town. The ambassadors will meet again Thursday.” King Nicholas of Montenegro in his telegram to Sir Edward Grey announcing his decision says of Austra’s threats of coer- cion: DEFEATED BY LARGE MAJORITY HE WOULD RESIGN RATHER THAN VOTE FOR MILITANT SUFFRAGETTES—MORE Two More Outrages.

KING OF MONTENEGRO FINALLY DECIDES TO EVACUATE SCUTARI AGED MONARCH HAS PLACED ALBANIAN CITY IN THE HANDS OF THE POWERS UNCONDITIONALLY—TENSION GREATLY RELIEVED “My dignity and that of my people do not permit me to sub- mit to isolated imposition. For this reason the fate of Scutari is left in the hands of the great powers.” Sir Edward Grey, the British foreign minister, announced at today’s meeting of the ambassa- dors that Montenegro had uncon- ditionally placed the question of the future of Scutari in the hands of the European powers. The decision reached by King Nicholas had the effect of reliev- ing the immediate tension in European polities. It caused un- bounded satisfaction to diplo- mats and the general public. The stock exchange responded at once. A small! audience assembled in the Westholme theatre last even™ ing, and were entertained by a number of children, who went through a series of exercises with considerable precision.
