WHITE SLAVES.
Efforts Making to Stop the Cursed
 Traffic in Russia.

Traffic In Russia,
 St. Petersburg Cor. New York Times: In view of the International CongI ess to be held in London at the end ot the present month for the dis eussion of the best measure to be taken for the prevention of the white slaye' traffic, the Novosti has lately been publishing detailed accounts of the manner in which this business is car- ried on in Russia. The trade has de- veloped to a great extent in the past few years throughout Western Europe, but the town Gf Jassy is it's center. The women are bought, particularly at Lelpslc, during the great annual fair, but 1t is the capital of Moldavia, which is the central point of the traffic, just as Khartoum was formerly the mar ket place for the human merchandise imported from Abyssinia and Central Africa. From Jassy the merchandise IS directed to Russia and Turkey. Next to Jassy, Brussels has become the most important center for this business. The white slaves destined for Russia are generally sent to Riga or to Wilma, where the wholesale merchants from St. Petersburg and Moscow meet to make their selections. These they transfer at once to the principal cities of the empire and to the remote prov. inces of Siberia There was recently arrested in Odessa an agent of the principal Russian white slave mer- chants, and at his residence a yolumi- nous correspondence, with sub-agents at Jassy, Brussels, Riga and elsewhere, was found. Thanks to this edifying correspondence, the Russian police as- eertained that white slave agencies ex- ist throughout Russia, in rural dis tricts as well as in the principal cities and towns. Tn some of these letters the sub-agents mentioned that they had exceptionally fine merchandise at relatively low price, five parcels (sic) in all" Then there followed a detailed description of the goods. The Odessa agent in question has been exiled to Siberia, where he will spend the next ten years. From what hear, the Rus sian government considers the white slave traffic as an international curse. which can only be successfully eradi- cated by the united efforts of all civil ized nations. It is well known that the czarina Is herself deeply interested in this matter.

INGENIOUS EXCUSE.
Army Chaplain Assigned to Duty in Philippines Finds He Is Too
 Old to Serve.

Rev. J. s. seibold, an army chaplain Ftationed at Fort Canby, Washington, Rnd under orders for duty in the Phil-I tppines, has made curiously timely discovery. He has advised the war de-I partment that he is three years older than he supposed and was recorded on the official files. He says he was born in 1885, instead of in 1888, and this announcement makes him old. enough to be retired fer age. He Is the third chaplain of the ten recently assigned to duty in the Philippines who has asked for one reason or an other to have such orders revoked. The war department officials marveIed pt the belated discovery by Rev. Mr. seibold, but his representa- tion is like y 10 be accepted and he will be trans ferred to the retired list with three quarters pay.

WANTS NAVAL STATION.
Why Britain Is So Anxious to Obtain Control of Harbor on the
 Northern Pacific Coast.

Congressman James Hamilton Lewis, of the state of Washington. who was in London during the consideration of the Alaskan boundary question, rep resenting the owners of property in the disputed territory, has arrived in New York. T was informed by no less a, person than Sir Louis Davies, said Mir. Lewis, that he had assured Mr. Choate that Canada would cede skaguay and Taiya absolutely without any claim, al- though they are within the disputed. territory, in return for Pyramid har- Dor, the remainder of the dispute to be decided upon the basis of the Ven ezuelan arbitration.
 This proposition was pending when the temporary modus was agreed upon at Washington.
 What Canada really wants is not a commercial depot, but naval station like Esquimalt.
 Great Britain foresees possible trou- ble with Russia over the division of, China and knows that she will have to fight it out in the northern Pacific. She realizes that trouble may arise over the Canada boundary at any time that she might have misunderstand- ing with us. She wants d mastering station on the Alaskan coast. We're she 10 have war with LIS, now that we have islands in the Pacific, she could come, out and attack us. That, 1 believe, is the reason Canada would give up so much to obtain port there."
