LABOR UNIONS
Prof. Gray Ready TO Make His
Reportto Commissioner Of Labor

Chicago. Sept. 25.-After four months
spent in the investigation OF labor unions
and their effect on production in England.
Prof. John II. Gray OF Northwestern
University has returned to Evanston.
While he refused TO give out the specif-
ic results OF his mission until his COM
plete report had been placed In the
hands OF the United States Commissioner
OF Labor Carroll D.wright, he admitted
that surprising new light would be thrown
on the subject by the statistics gathered
abroad.
English labor organizations are much
stronger than our own" said Prof Gray
last night The members of a union In
England hang together much better and
there is less internal strife to defeat the
aim of the union. AS n result these bod
les are able TO accomplish much more
than their prototypes In this country.
The laboring man In England as distinct
from his organization on the other hand
IN worse of than our American laborer.
This is partly due TO his own short COM
ings for ne is not so capable as the Am
erIcan workman. Cooperative societies
are doing a great work in England for
the toilers. That they are a wonderful
success is indisputable."

Alberta Scott, a Beautiful Art
lists Model, Missing From Home
THREATENED TO EMTRAP HER
More Than a Year Ago She DISAPPEARED
and Was Later Found Wandering Around
Ina Daz,d Condition.

New York, Sept. 25.-Fears are enter
tained by the police that Alberta Scott,
l6 years old, who disappeared from her
home a week ago. is in the power of
hypnotist. who threatened more than
year ago 10 entrap her.
The missing girl is the daughter OF
winifred Scott, shoe and leather mer-
chant, OF Manhattan, whose home is at
S74 East New York avenue, Brooklyn.
She and her elder sister have posed 70!
the art students of Pratt institute and
Adelphi college and are famous for their
beauty Of face and figure.
Late in the afternoon of Sept. IA Alber-
ia left home for walk. Not clue to
the girls whereabouts has been obtained
since then. In the light of fact connected
with her disappearance a year and a
half ago. her family and the police feel
the keenest apprehension.
HER FORMER DISAPPEARANCE.
The Scott family was living at 50 Ber-
gen street at the time, and Alberta was
attending a fashionable, school at Brook
lyn Heights. Sent shopping by her
mother one afternoon. the girl failed 10
return. For days an unsuccessful search
was prosecuted.
Hope was almost gone when Alberta
was found wandering in the convent
grounds OF the Sisters Of St Joseph at
Yonkers. She was dazed and did not fully
recover her senses until she reached
home.
Her story was that on entering a
Bergen street car on the afternoon of
her disappearance, she was annoyed by
the fixed gaze of an unknown man, who
sat opposite her. Slowly but surely she
felt the influence of the mans piercing
eyes growing upon her She fought
against the feeling and finally m" an
effort ~ leave the car, but faile Ter
mind grew confused and she los. on
sciousness.
Il know nothing else" sobbed the girl.
MY mind is blank up 10 the moment
when they found me in Yonkers."
At first the family doubted the girls
story, but two days later corroboration
came in letter mailed from a distant
city. There was no signature to the
letter-nothing beyond threatening line.
II KNOW MY POWER OVER YOU"
IT know my power over you" wrote
the unknown correspondent. ''and shall
not spare you. Do not hope to escape
me-"
Dreading the notoriety which the
publication of the facts would bring, the
Scott family kept this letter secret from
all save the detectives at work upon the
case. No clue to the writer was ever
obtained.
At the time of her last disappearance
Miss Scott wore light brown sack over
a pink and blue shirt waist a dark blue
skirt and black picture hat. She Is n
l.
fully proportioned and strikingly pretty
The police of all neighboring cities will
be asked today TO cooperate in The
search.

available this year But altogether there
are not enough good men. There is
plenty of musical material In college and
another call will be issued by the man

be formed.
The Young Mems Christian association
held its first mid-week meeting last
night. President Faunce gave an address
on Cecil Rhodes Ideal OF Manhood
which was well received.
DR. Faunce first touched upon Cecil
Rhodes life and the terms of his will.
His ideal I'm life had been TO establish
worldwide federation and after death he
devoted his money 10 the same end. In
his will he showed that he considered that
the men who added education and re-
finement to a Character OF truth and in
tegrity were the ones to advance the
world.
Now. everyone has an idea, and 1t
should be high. The Christians ideal,
especially, should be the advancement OF
Gods kingdom. The ideals OF other ages
have all been fulfilled but the ideal of
the Christian will nevsHbe completely
