/ LONDON, March 15. Mrs Drummond's suffragette meeting at Ulster Hall, Belfast, was disorderly. Anger was aroused when Dorothy Evans, who was one of those who had sat on Sir Edward Carson's door-, step, announced that the suffragettes had decided to make war on Sir Edward Carson. Tne latter's name was repeatedly cheered. Electric snuff and evil-smelling: bombs made things very uncomfortable for the speakers, and the latter were shouted down. Proceedings closed with the majority singing the National Anthem. Mrs Pankhurst has been released. Suffragettes in the early morning smashed many "windows in Mjr McKenna's house at Westminster.l Six were arrested and sentenced to two months' hard labor. Mr McKenna was absent at a committee meeting.
