GERMAN GIRLS ARE VICTIMS
Foe of White Slave Traffic Sees Grave
Menace in Utah Sect.

NEW YORK, Aug. 24.-Mormonism
is the great menace to the young wo-
men Of Germany today, according to
Miss Maria Lydia Winkler, author and
representative of the national commit
tee for the suppression of the white
slave traffic in Germany. She has been
sent to this country by the German
emperor
Her mission is not only to investi-
gate Mormonism, but to dig up the
secrets of the white slave traffic which,
she says, is conducted by an organiza-
ton of international proportions,
backed by practically unlimited cap
ital.
The name Of the organization in
France is the knights of Love. Presi-
dent Roosevelt, Miss Winkler says, is
interested in her cause. A number Of
persons have promised financial sup
port.
Before leaving here for Utah today
Miss Winkler said: 'In Europe there
are two great centers for the white
slave traffic. Hungary supplies the
orient. France has become the central
station for sending the unfortunates to
America.
There is in New York a hotel to
which they are sent to work." contin-
ued Miss Winkler eff they will not do
the bidding of their masters they are
sent to the laundry in Chicago, where
they are given the hardest kind of
work. If they still hold out, they are
beaten into submission. In all cases
the men seek their consent with view
to possible complications with tho
law"

LOOKS SLIGHTLY THE WORSE FOR WEAR

Seattle, Aug. 24-After a fierce en-
counter with a Mexican wildcat weigh
ing thirty pounds, in which his cloth
ing was torn and his leg lacerated by
the cats sharp CLOVIS, D. M. Haglund
of Alki Point came forth a victor yes
terday morning and set at rest an in
tense feeling of anxiety and alarm
caused by the depredations of the VIC
ious animal, which had killed chick
ems and attacked dogs and human be-
The wildcat had been brought from
Arizona a kitten some months ago, and
when it attained maturity the inherent
treachery of the feline cropped out,
forcing the owner to make her captive
with a strong chain. The animal was
allowed to walk over the beach the
length of it's tether and during this
captivity it resented all friendly ap-
proaches.
Some time during the night the ami
NAL broke it's chain and this morning
half a dozen chickens were missing
from Alki roosts. A bowling of the
dogs throughout the night indicated
that the cat was mixing it up with
them and several bear the marks of
her sharp claws today.
The loss of the chickens was discov-
cred simultaneously with the escape Of
the cat and during the search for the
animal Alki Points residents were in
a fever of excitement. this being ag-
gravated by the report that a news
boy had been attacked by the cat.
Eventually D. M. Haglund discover
ed the animal in an unoccupied build
ing in the rear of his home, and he
armed himself with an axe and en-
tered her lair The first blow from
the blunt end of the weapon stretched
her out unconscious, but she rallied
quickly, showing that she possessed as
many lives as the ordinary feline is
possessed with, and flew at him.
Mr.. Haglunds trousers were torn
by her claws and several long, deep
scratches were inflicted on his leg,
but he managed to land another blow,
this time with the sharp end of the
axe, and the wildcat keeled over in
its death-throes. The owners of the
animal were as much pleased as any
body at the death of the cat, as the
animal had been giving them consi-
derable trouble lately, but the love
for the pet they had raised from a
kitten saved it the fate melted out this
morning.

WILL MOVE TENDERLOIN.
SeattIe's Mayor Will, However, AT
tempt to Head OFF Spectators.

SEATTLE, Aug. 24.-"Despite the
threats that have been made by par
ties interested in Seattle's restricted
district to call a grand jury, the policy
outlined by this administration for the
regulation of vice of that character
will be carried out. 1t is the inten-
ton to move the district to a loca-
ton that will be less obnoxious, but
this will not be done until certain
options that have been taken by spec
ultaors have expired"
Thus Mayor Moore outlined the ac-
ton he proposes to take on the re-
moval of the restricted district from
the vicinity of the railroad passenger
terminals.
"When the new order increasing the
fines of the owners of houses of Hire
pute was placed in effect" said the
mayor, IAN attorney in the employ of
certain of these owners called on the
chief of police, Wappenstein, with a
threat that unless the order was re-
scinded a grand jury would be called
to try the chief and myself for allow
ing places of this character to exist.
The same threat was put up to me.
The agent was informed that the adj
ministration has no fear Of a grand
Jury to investigate it's acts.

One of the Most Curious Freaks OF
Nature in California.

One of the most curious freaks Of
nature is the gigantic fig tree near
Woodbridge, California. 1t is over
29O feet in circumference. It was
planted in the early SOS by some of
the first miners that came to Califor-
MIA after gold was discovered.
The tree was neglected and as the
branches became ladened with the
fruit they dropped to the ground, ana
taking root again grew and intertwin-
ed with the main trunk until it is now
almost a solid tree with the exception
of the base which is divided into seven
chambers or rooms
The tree is used very frequently by
picnickers and small parties as a din
ingroom, there being benches and ia
bles made in it. There is room to
accommodate nearly 100 people. 1t
is estimated that the tree has borne
over 1000 worth of fruit since it has
begun to bear.
