be the parties involved, Agents of the
society. as well as the police, are veri-
flying the statements of the girls who
arrests will be insisted upon as soon
as the evidence is in shape for pre-
sentation to the courts with a reason
able assurance of conviction.
Backed by Public Opinion.
In this course the society is backed
by public opinion. Indignation against
the ruler of Persia in this city is ex-
ceedingly great. and IL is thought that
President Loubet may be forced to ask
the Shah TO pay heavy damages to the
parents of the kidnapped girls. who. of
course. Will have to be returned and
to make a formal promise not TO at
tempt to induce any more French girls
10 join his harern.
The Shah of Persia has already in his
harem more than eight hundred wives
many OF whom are European girls OF
GOOD family. 1t is said that as a rule
ne treats them quite well, and especially
while they are newcomers showers
gifts upon them. On December q Of
every year an official notice is sent to
Ine parents OF pretty daughters to get
tnem ready TO bring before the Shah.
Over Two Hundred Children.
A month later an exhibition takes
place. and twenty-five new wives are Sc
lected by the Shah from the most beau
uful maidens of the country. II is not
known how many children the present
Shah has. but 1t is thought that the
number Is considerably over two hun

PARIS. Sept. 2.-Paris is stirred by
the discovery that the Shah of Persia.
during his recent visit to the French
capital. employed agents to lure beau
tiful young French girls to go to Per-
sia and become inmates of his harem.
Since his departure the police have been
besieged by the relatives of an un-
usually large number of young girls
who have disappeared. and an inves-
tigation led TO the discovery of the
work of the shahs agents.
Two young girls. who were rescued
at the last moment, just as they were
going aboard a steamer at Marseillcs.
told an interesting story of how they
were induced TO leave their home and
parents to become the wives of the
king of kings" Both of them adj
mitted that they knew that they were
going to tkc harem of the Shah. and
said that they had been offered hand
fuls of diamonds and precious stones
If they would consent to go.
French Officials Implicated.
What makes the affair even moro
sensational is that these two girls in
plicated several very high French Off
Gals and leaders of society, who they
say were paid a commission by the
Shah for every girl they procured fer
his harem.
The names of some Of these persons
are so prominent that II is feared that
the government may drop the investi-
cation to avoid national scandal.
The national society for the protec-
ton of young girls has taken up the
affair. however, and its officers declare
that they will not permit the matter 10

Will Be Hard Task.

1t will be hard task for John Fulton.
His wife cannot swear positively that
ne Is her husband and he cannot swear
positively that she is his wife. The
only person who might clear up tho
trouble Is Andrew Fulton, collector of
delinquent taxes, former mayor of the
city and one Of the best-known politi
cians in Allegheny county But he is

Mrs. Fulton Puzzled.
Mrs. Fulton is as soreIv narnIaxad
over the matter as is her alleged hus-
band She is all the more puzzled ow-
ing to the fact that this John Fulton
claims to be a brother of Andrew Full
ton. In all the years that we lived
together as husband and wife 1 never
heard him say that he was a brother
OF Andrew Fulton. In fact, 1 thought
that all his relatives were dead, but
then, on the other hand. the Fulton

1t is certainly strange and has al

goes before the court on Tuesday John

provide sufficient witnesses to prove
whether he really is or not.

There is no reason why an amateur
