EXODUS OF ENGLISH GIRLS.
Comment of New York Steamship Of
fcials-Reasons Assigned.

LONDON, September 20.-The remarka BILE
exodus of marriageable young women from
this country to the United States and Can
ada was emphasized yesterday by the de-
parture of 1000 unmarried women on the
Baltic alone. while several hundred more
were among the total of 5000 passengers
carried on three other steamships sailing
yesterday.
NEW YORK, September 2O.-The news
cabled from England that unmarried
women by hundreds have sailed for Amerf-
can and Canadian ports is variously COM
mented upon by steamship men here. Of
fciais of the White Star line, whose
steamer, the Baltic, is reported to have a
thousand such women aboard, are inclined
to think that this feminine contingent Is
not abnormally large for this time of the
year. 1t is simply that servant girls and
maids returning to this country.
1t is also suggested that the Dublin ex-
position drew large number of young
women back to Ireland, where they took
the opportunity to visit their old homes
and that they now on their way
back.
Yet another reason given here for the
exodus is the swift development Of the
Canadian northwest. British emigrants, it
is said, have gotten their newly acquired
farms into shape and have sent word to
their sweethearts to join them.

Agony Too Great to Bear.

Mrs. Smiths part in the treatment, ac-
cording to the testimony before the coro-
ner's jury, consisted in raising Mrs. Green
haulgh's head and holding her while Mitch
ell and his wife attempted to straighten
the wonlan's limbs which had been twisted
by years of rheumatism.
Greenhaulgh broke down and cried as he
told his story. He said that for some time
his mother bore the treatment bravely but
at last the agony became great that she
could not restrain herself, and shrieked
"Oh, Lord, help me- a number of times.
According to Greenhaulgh, Mitchell de-
clared that her cries must not be heard by
outsiders, and he put his hand across her
mouth to smother them.
The five worked over the victim until
she died, shortly before noon. After that,
according to Greenhaulgh, Mrs. Smith be-
came the leader in a resurrection scene"
In this efforts were made to restore the
dead woman to life. When these had failed
the announcement of her death was made.
The case will be further investigated to-
day by the authorities of Lake county, in
which Zion City is situated.

Shouted With Joy at Screams.

The arms of Mrs. Greenhaulgh, stiffened by
rheumatism, were jerked and twisted about
in order that the devil might be driven out.
The cries of the aged woman were consid-
cred to be those of an evil spirit and were
greeted with triumphant shouts.
After a course of this violent treatment
Mrs. Greenhaulgh not only became SO weak
that she could not use her limbs. but be-
came incapable of making any motion
Then her neck was twisted, and for some
time this treatment was kept up.
Walter Greehaulgh testified at the coro-
ner's inquest that Mitchell and his wife re-
Gently had vision in which Mitchell
was ordered to quit work and devote his
time to casting out demons from the sick.
Young Greenhaulgh declared that his moth
er's consent was obtained before the treat
ment was begun. He asserted that hyp-
motto passes were made before his mothers s
face and then followed the muscular force,
which, he said, was strongly resisted by the
demons"
