THE MILITANTS
DR INGRAM’S INTERVENTION. (London ' Times ’ and Sydney ‘ Sun ’ Services.) LONDON, July 6.
The Bishop of London, in the course of a letter, repeats that ho has no sympathy with the militants, but he still deplores forcible feeding, and publishes copies ot his recent letters to the Home Secretary (Mr M'Kenna), in which he states the results of his interviews with suffragettes at Holloway Gaol. The women there declared that they took nothing to prevent pain. The forcing of a tube through the nostril was more acute in its effect each time it was used. Its frequent and agonising withdrawal was necesary to avoid infection of the lungs. Indigestion, vomiting, and nervous prostration followed.
