Horrible Traffic Carried on in Russia.
Gear Nicholas has issued an order
to the governors of southeastern prov
inces of European Russia that they
must Immediately put an end to the
disgraceful sale Of young women, that
has become common since the begin
ming of the war. Owing to the de-
preston in industry and commerce,
caused by the war, fathers and hus-
bands have openly sold their daught-
ers and wives to agents, who have
them exported to South American
ports. The sale of the women has
been carried on in open market with
out any attempt at concealment.
The average price paid for young
women is about $50, and the trade
has been enormously profitable to
them, as the Russian consuls at Rio
De Janeiro and Buenos Ayres have
reported that prices paid in these cit
les by owners of disorderly houses
average $500. In future any man
found buying or selling a woman will
be banished to the Siberian mines for
life.
