CAMPAIGN OF CRIME.

(Press Assn.-^By Telegraph— Copyright.) TiONDON;' JuIy 17. A decided attempt was made to burri the stands on the football ground at Doncaster. A sorter m the Dublin Post Offioe was stamping a letter addressed to MiDillon when it exploded- and the sorter's hind Aras badly injured LONDON, July 10. While Lord Aberdeen was opening a fate at Kingstown, Dublin, yesterday, a woman rushed up to him saying': "Your' Excellency, how dare you come hero while women are being tortured m prison? You are the representative of the Government m Ireland. Why* did you allow it?" Lord Aberdeen did not reply, and the suffragette was removed by a detective. The London Mail points out that whereas fifteen months ago there iwere 204 suffragettes under sentence only 21 are now iii prison, as a result of the Cat and Mouse Act. A first-class railway carriage that was standing at a siding m Manchester was blown up, the coach being shattered to pieces. Three suffragettes have been arrested and charged m connection with the outrage. The police raided the suffragette offices at Manchester, and arrested the secretary. In tlie wall-work of the building they made some startling discoveries, including several quarterpound tins of gunpowder, a revolver- containing three live cartridges and one •-•pent empty shell, a bomb, wire-cutting instruments, catapults and black masks. The suffragettes held a demonstration m Queen's Hall, at whicli the "Cat and Mouse Act"" — the measure under whioh the miltants are released on lioense — was denounced as a piece of cowardly torture. •■
