Secretary Martin of State His

TT has always been a mystery" said
Geo. w. Martin of the State Historical
society today, why there never ap-
peared to be any treaty between the
white settlers and the Kaw Indians for
the right to lay out the old Santa Fe
trail through the Kaw reservation.
Within the past week this mystery has
been solved, and we are able to add this
missing link to the records of the state
That there was a treaty entered into
with the Usage Indians was well known
but even the Oldest settlers seemed to
know nothing about any treaty with the
kaws. 1t remained for ex-senator Geo.
P MorehouSe of Council Grove to dis
cover the true state of affairs. In look
ing over the old field notes of the sur
VeyorS who laid out the trail through
the Kaw reserve, Mr.. Morehouse found
a record of the treaty which was en-
tered into with that tribe. The treaty
was made at point a few miles south
or where Mcpherson, Kan, now stands.
The Indians were paid $500 in money
and $3OC in merchandise for the right to
build the road through their land. APP
parently the white men who made the
treaty moved away, and the Indians
kept very quiet about it. Within a few
years, all remembrance of the treaty
had been lost, and the Indians were
careful not to revive 1t. They wanted

TERRIBLE STORY.
Katie HOllenbeck, Example of
Youthful DepraVity.
Tells a Story That Causes PeO-
pie to Shudder.
PUTNAM WOMAN HELD
Must Answer for Enticing the
Girl Away.
Child Will Probably Be Sent to
BelOit.

: Testimony was taken in the court
of Topeka today before Judge Simon
in the preliminary hearing on the
charge against Mrs. Irene Putnam,
that she enticed Katie Hollenbeck
away from her home for immoral pur-
poses. There was a crowded court
room of the morbid, and otherwise as
there always is when such a case
comes up, and there were some rather
distressing features to the hearing.
not the least of which was the pres
ence in the court room of Mr.. Put
man, the husband of the accused wo-
man, and their little three-year-old
boy. ,1C---
Until few weeks ago Katie Hollen-
beck, who is one of the six children of
Mr. and Mrs. John Hollenbeck of No.
2407 Fillmore street, has lived at
home with her parents. She is just a
little over fifteen years old and for
more than two years has been work.
ing around in laundries. She is rather
attractive looking and of the brunette
type. Probably one of the results of
the hearing today will be her incar-
ceration in the girls industrial school
at Beloit on a charge of her being in
corrigible.
Three weeks ago. or Whereabouts,
Katie was missed from home and an
Investigation by her parents led them
to believe that she had been enticed
away to Kansas City by Irene Put
nam. After considerable search the
girl and the Putnam woman, who is a
tall blonde and does not look to be
more than twenty-five years old, were
located in a Kansas City rooming
house by private detectives and the
girl was brought back to her home by
Mrs. Thorpe. the police matron. On
Mrs. Putnam's return to the city later
she was arrested on the charge pre-
ferred against her and when 1t came
time for her hearing a week or so
ago. it was discovered that the Hol-
lenbeck girl was missing again. Mrs.
Putnam's hearing was postponed
from time to time until the girl could
be located and she was finally found
again in Kansas City, where she was
taken into custody and brought back
to the city last night by Sheriff Wiki
erSon.
She was the first and of course the
most important witness called to the
stand by J. ]. Schenck. the county at
torney. It was hard work to get the
girl to tell a connectedly straight
story but she insisted in most posi-

the insane woman who came back to
the county JAIL demanding admittance
on the grounds that she was abused by
her brothers family, says that his

transferred to the county jail to make
room for a violent patient, until 1 re-
turned recently from Colorado and
found her in jail. I thought I could
take care of her at home, and the
sheriff consented. But my sister got
worse, and began wandering around
among the neighbors. When told her
she must not do so. she became
angry, and frequently whipped my
children while my wife and I were
avay from home. On the night she
came to the county Jail and demanded
admittance I have learned that she
went first to the asylum, but they
would not let her in. I shall make
application to have her admitted to

tive ways that she had not been en-
ticed away from home by Mrs. Put
nam.
Katie told quite as remarkable
story as has been heard in the courts
of Shawnee county for many a day.
She and Mrs. Putnam had met in the
city park a couple of months ago and
had become pretty good friends.
They got confidential and told each
other that their past lives had not
been just what they should. Katie
declared that Mrs. Putnam begged
her to reform but she replied that she
had not seen just enough of the world
yet. Then they fixed up a deal with
Miller and Vernon Bell, whereby they
would go to Kansas City. Katie said
that it was their intention to live with
these men in Kansas City for week
and then leave them and reform.
They went to Kansas City with the
men and lived with them in rooms at
No. 1928 Oak street, and were living
there when the officers located them
and she was brought back home.
Katie showed little If any shame in
telling a rather terrible story of
youthful degradation, of which the
above is but an outline. She admitted
that she had used the name of
Genevieve Mccoy on various occasions
here in Topeka and on her last trip to
Kansas City, which she said she took
of her own volition and not for the
purpose of shielding Mrs. Putnam.
She insisted that Mrs Putnam needed
no shielding as she had gone with her
and the men to Kansas City of her
own will and that Mrs. Putnam, had.
as a matter of fact, urged her to mend
her ways.
She declared that she took the sec
ond trip to Kansas City because she
wanted to get away from Topeka and
not because she hoped to meet. Mrs.
Putnam there again for the purpose
of running away with her sasl was IN
timated by questions from Mr..
Schenck and letters he produced.
John Hollenbeck Katie's father and
her mother took the stand, told the
girls age, and then stated that they
had never given their consent to have
the child go on the trip to Kansas City
and for the purpose for which 1t was
made.
A. NJ. Harvey, counsel for Mrs. Put
nam. asked Mr.. Hollenbeck: You mean
to tell this court that you took this girl
out of school at the age or thirteen
years and let her work in laundry
Mr. Ho1lenbeck answered in the affirma-
tive.
Mrs Thorpe was an important wit
ness and declared that when the Put
nam woman was taken into custody In
Kansas City, and this was day before
Katie was located, she at first denied
that she knew the girl and then after
wards that she did and next made the
following rather strange statement to
Mrs. Thorpe:
THE last thing I saw of Katie was
back in Topeka. 1 heard she had gone
into the open sewer in the city park
for the purpose of singing to hear the
echoes and the high water came up and
drowned her"
Mrs Thorpe said that the women was
pinned down so closely that she finally
admitted that the girl had come to Kan
saS City with her and she led the police
to where the girl was found.
Considerable other testimony was
taken at the hearing at the conclusion
of which Mrs. Putnam was bound over
for trial in the district court under
81, 900 bail, which was furnished.
