OF the Accused and Proceedings In
Court-slione Likely to Suffer.
NEW HAVEN, July g. 1873.
A case OF no little interest occurred before the
City Court here this morning. 1t arose in this
way A few days ago Mr.. Potter member OF the
state Board OF Education, came here to see n any
Italian boys we're employed by taskmasters asstreet
musicians, intending to prosecute such masters
tor violation OF the Education law, which foroIds
masters employing boys under fourteen who have
not attended school for three months in the year.
He found one Giovanni Siione employing four
Italian boys whom he had recently brought from
New York. and he caused his arrest. The exami-
nation took place this morning and attracted much
interest The accused was charged with the viola
ton OF
THE PERSONAL LIBERTY LAW
of Connecticut and with violation OF the Educa-
ton law. Mr. Cassali, editor of the Echo d'itdltd,
was present in behalf or the prosecution, as well
as q representative of the Italian Association
in new YORK, formed to prevent tranic in Italian
boys. The state put in evidence the recent act
of the Italian Parliament making Illegal contracts,
selling the service OF boys by their parents and by
the bows it was proved that they were badly
treated aud led, were threatened with arrest II
they attempted TO run away, and were sometimes
beaten when they did not earn enough. The de-
CONTRACTS MADE ny THE ACCUSED
with the boys parents under which he was TO
have their services as musicians. ana IL WAS
claimed that the Italian Parliament could not an
null previously made contract; and further, that
the contract was In the nature OF an ndenture ap-
prentlclng the boys. L..
fne Court found that the contracts were void in
this State az contrary to puDlc feeling that they
were not In the nature of indentures; and further,
| that the evidence showed that the boys were de-
| prived OF their liberty by the accused inc court
| rcontinued the cases one week, and gave notice
| that at that time 1t would require the accused
| TO APPEAR BEFORE THE SUPERIOR COURT
| for trial and that the cases were continued IN
order to give time to make arrangements to have
the boys taken care OF until the time OF trial. Inc
accused had his bonds OF $4,000 continued, ana In
| default OF bail was committed. 1t IL generally
| believed he viii be convicted under the Personal
Liberty law. The penalty Is two years In the state
| who had q large number Of boys similarly en-
t! ployed In New York.

Inc Mayor Iumeul2teiy detailed an O11Cer TO
lead me to his chamber, and Immediately upon my
entrance said--
''Sir, am glad that you have called my atten-
ton to this matter and have given the Captain Of
the police special orders to follow out your wishes
In every particular. You Will, therefore, arrange
all matters with him, and any action upon your
part will meet with my approval. My policy, as
you have been pleased to cali 1t, has, indeed, been
aggressive, and we shall follow 1t un1inchngly to
the end. We receive many threats from those who
are our enemies, but they serve only to show that
practical benefits are resulting from our labors,
and that in their development a great many evils
are being strongly combated and greatly inter-
fered with"
We we're IN the chamber during the next half
hour, in the course of which Mayor Stokley in
formed me that only few hours before girl had
been brought before him, enticed from the country

audience In which they might learn their future and
ascertain at how remote day the spirits had
fixed their marriage and yet, in face OF this, we
smile at the unlimited superstition of the past,
and In glowing sermons grow eloquent concerning
the glory and grandeur OF the present century, as
though their maudlin sentimentallty did not exist
ana az II the mountebsnks were, indeed, all dead.
Oh! Eben Bonapben was right when he said that it
was this love- this gross animaity for which there
seems to be no other name than love, was danger
GUS knowledge, was the cause of half the Ills Of
earth; that care sorrow, weary days and sleepless
nights were It's attendants; that 1t withered the
bloom and
BLreHrED THE JOYS OF YOUTH
and brought on the griefs OF premature old age
All these things are not, Of course, the result Of
the turning Of a card, the upturned face OF q die
or the lugubrious dissertation Of vulgar female
with closed eyes but the cards and the dice and
the empty speeches OF these sinful women are not
used simply as the medium through which le w
silly girls may discern, as they foolishly
imagine they do, the mysteries OF the
hidden future, but they are In reality the
means by which healing mediums and
others OF a similar class drag down to the lowest
ranks of crime and prostitution many of the giddy-
headed maidens who suspect IL least and who, all
unaware, come there simply to have their fortunes
told. speak from positive proof when I say that
almost all OF these fortune telers prostitutes
themselves and that they are employed by a GER
tain class of men, who pay the rent OF their homes
and the amount of their advertising bills simply
for the sake Of the chances Afforded to
ENsNARE INNOCENT GIRLS
and entice them from the paths of rectitude and
virtue; while In case OF difficulty these same
women act as abortionists and then conceal from
the law and from what rev relatives the victims
may possess all external evidence OF their misery
and disgrace. This is most certainly q diflcut
statement to be trusted, but we feel sure that 1t
will be most substantially corroborated before this
letter draws to its close.
