the couple lived happily. then Collins sud

CHAMBERLAIN is IRRITATED
Appeal of the Boers for Help NettIes
the Colonial Secretary of
Great Britain.

LONDON, Nov. 21.-A I'm. ser re-
lating to the Boer generaf1 f.s, The
world was published today. IN ~
General Botha, Colonial Secretary ~
berlain protests against the "exaggerat4
Of the appeal and the incorrect impress
slons conveyed thereby" and points out
that in addition to the gift Of s15, 100000 for
the relief of the Beers, Great Britain had
been spending 81 ,0OO, 900 monthly since the
close of the war in maintaining the burgher
camps as organizations to enable the peo-
pie to return to their homes.
Mr.. Chamberlain also suggests that large
sums we're remitted by the Transvaal to
Europe during the war He says there
must be a large balance there remaining
and invites General Botha's cooperation
in finding the persons to whom the money
was entrusted and in recovering the bal
ance, when. he says. Great Britain is pre-
pared to add to the sums already provided
for the relief of the burghers.
General Botha, in reply, says that until
Mr. Chamberlain made his speech Of No
vember he understood that the $15,00O,-
900 was partial compensation for war losses.
II he had known that It was solely for the
relief Of destitution the appeal in such
form would not have been issued.
The general declares that he is unaware
that any sums we're remitted to Europe as
alleged and that IL such sums exist he
would be very glad to see them devoted to
the objects mentioned. He concludes with
a congratulatory reference to Mr.. Chamber
lain's approaching trip to South Africa and
an expression of his wish that the con-
troversy regarding the past should be ended
and that both sides address themselves
entirely to the necessities of the present
and future

a raid conducted by the local police on
houses Of ill-repute it is announced that
evidence will be adduced, which will war
rant action by the United States authori-
ties.

it's purpose traflc in young girls, is In op-
Grafton on both sides of the Atlantic, with
agents scattered broadcast TO lure girls
from their homes. especially in foreign
countries, to lives Of depravity in this and
other cities.

by the consular service and the raid re-
suited in the arrest of 113 girls, and a num-
Der of men, some OF the latter suspected
Of being agents In the sinister business.

hend him.

the person of Abe Fink who, the police
ASSERT, is one of the distributing agents.

the raid, are said to occupy similar posi-
tions

the resorts wherein are located German
and Hebrew girls. The police say they
will be able to prove that the head of
the nefarious trade has regularly forwarded
money to the procuring agents in Halle,
Germany
The director of public safety, the super
intendent Of police, Commissioner Rogers
and Rabbi Joseph Krauskopf, devoted much
time today to questioning the inmates OF
the raided resorts, and are accommodating
sufficient evidence to prove the conspiracy
to be international in its scope
