LONDON. June 30 (By the Asso-
eluted Press).—Lady Astor. tugging at
the coat tails of Sir Frederick George
Banlmry in a vein effort to induce
him to stop speaking so that she and
her liquor bill might have the right
of way. sent the Home of Commons
Inio pools of laughter last evening in
which the grave speaker was obliged
to join. '
The opportunity of finishing the li-
nsi stages of her measure had arisen
1nd Lady Astor was csgerly hoping
that the! bout could get to it if only

"with disteroé'upon the" Mimi-ion of
women to parliament.
As the time approached for consid-
eration of her measure, Lady Astor
took a seat on the step at Sir Freder-
lck's feet. He however. was well
warmed up to the debate on the ag-
rlculturai credits bill and paid no at-
icniion to the pleading she addressed
to him. . - .
Displaying great impatience Lady
Astor finally tugged at his cost tsils
trying to force him to sit down. while
the House laughed heartily.
At last nanbury stopped. There
were five minutes left for considera-
tion of the liquor bill. and great was
Lady Astor's disconlriture when ‘Sir
Frederick immediately began moving
amendments to it. Her lady-ship
made a desperate and futile attempt
to move cioaurc. This only served to
increase the. merrimcnt. and when the
time limit expired with Bunbury still

iatc dto some future time. the laugh-
ter burst out anew. A
Then Lady Astor arose 'from her
seat. shook her'mt at the enemy and
hastened toward him. gave him a. re-
sentful punch; half in fun and half
in petulance, while the members
shouted with mirth. ,
The bill. however. was not lost as
the government has promised to grant
facilities for its eventual passage.
