TELEGRAPHY IS
VERY FREAKY

The strike breaking operators, of
which the Western Union local Of
fee claims to have plenty, seems
to have little troubles of their own.
For instance, a man here got tele-
gram signed Heffron Tanner Co.
He had never heard of such firm.
When the puzzle was finally work
ed out he discovered that this was
only the strike breakers method of
spelling H. H. Franklin Co. There
are a number of other unique ex-
amples of the present satisfactory
service"
Practically no change, locally.
marks the opening of another week
of the strike. None of the Spokane
union men have deserted and none
of them have any intention Of so
doing. They are having great luck
with the tickets for the benefit ball
at Masonic temple Thursday, and
their struggle is attracting other
forms of substantial assurance from
organized labor.
Nothing more has been heard of
railway operators being discharged,
and it looks as IL theh railroad
companies had awakened to the
danger of drawing on share of
the trouble when there was no need
Of it. All the operators ask is for
the railroads to remain neutral,
something railroad operators as
sure them will be maintained.

agement wanted the pool ordinance
fixed and someone had to be sent
along with Mayor Moore.
Roy Is possibly home in advance
on scouting duty to ascertain just
when 1t will be good politics for
the mayor to show up.
He says that after 3 weeks of
travelling. at the city's expense, and
being more or less interviewed by
the newspapers. they have secured
the services of S. II. Knight, the
man recommended by the Wallace
Coates company. to superintendent
the new bridge building. Mr.
Knight is in Portland. Ore. quite
a distance from Chicago. but 1t did
not prove necessary for the mayor

They were able to secure him by
merely going to Chicago, lndianapo-
lis and few other eastern cities.
Mr.. Roy thinks the mayor will
arrive home about Sept. l. He is
now visiting in Wisconsin.

ALL NIGHT CAR
SERVICE

Councilman John Gray says he
will try to have the hours extend
ed in which street cars are oper-
ated. His idea is that some kind Of
service should be given the men
who are going and coming to work
at all hours Of the night. There
are others also that would doubtless
appreciate an all night service.
Gray holds that the number of
men who work at night is con-
stantly increasing and there are
several hundred now. Train crews
and trains that come in during the
night or early morning are increas-
ing. The railroad employees have in
many instances to go and come at
all hours and many have to walk in
all kinds of weather.
Besides the railroad men there
are other crafts that are COMPEL
cd to work until after the cars stop
running and have to trudge home.
Councilman Gray proposes to call
the attention Of the officers of the
w. w. P. Co. and Traction Co. to
this matter and ask them to investi-
gate the matter thoroughly with a
view Of lettering the situation If
possible. He said he did not be.
lieve that there was enough traf-
fic at present to make it a paying
proposition, but that it would be a
great accommodation to the public,
and when people knew they could
reach their homes at a later hour
than at present the business would
increase rapidly.

CHIEF RICE ACTS AGAINST
WOMEN SLAVE EVIL

Chief OF Police Rice this morning
ordered all women who live in dis
orderly houses and who contribute
in any manner to the support OF
men, shall leave town before Oct.
or suffer arrest.
The expose of the custom OF
French and other breeds OF
parasite OF keeping women en-
shaved In an immoral business and
so frightening and beating them
that they are forced to turn over
their money. has caused the chiefs
order. The aim is principally at
French women, every one OF whom
is some Frenchman's slave. Police
men predict that the Frenchmen
will pull up stakes, leave the county
and take their white slaves with
them.
Chief Rice has tried to control
this matter with the least trouble.
Frenchmen have been arrested on
vagrancy charges, but as in the case
of Peter Gouyet, beat the prosecu-
ton on the fact that they have a
Legitimate business and therefore
are not to be classed as Migrants.
Gouyet is proprietor of Minnehaha
park.
Frank Aitelle, another OF the
class, was also arrested and dis
charged on the showing that he was

PRINTERS AID
TELEGRAPHERS

Although they are compelled by
their working contracts to handle
"rat copy" which means setting up
telegraph sent by strikebreakers,
the Spokane printers are doing all
they can to help the operators win.
Yesterday the local union voted
a strike benefit levy of 1 per cent
of their earnings for the telegraph
operators, which will yield $40 or
$50 weekly, for as long as needed.
The printers also bought a liberal
supply Of tickets to the ball Thurs
day.
The printers decided that they
did not care to parade on Labor
day. The men who work nights
would find it difficult to get up at
the time Of the parade, and the
day men employed on newspapers
could not very we'll leave their
work before noon.

other masters and who tell even the
barest secret, are taken to the
ranch" and then thrown into the
lake. One of the peculiarities OF
the lake Is that where the greatest
depth Is, body never rises to the
surface. All evidence of any crime,
therefore, remains at the bottom
and the disreputable French slavers
rest secure in absolute safety from
fear of arrest.
Or, If an arrest should sometimes
be made, there would be no body in
evidence. To convict of murder
there must be dead body. The

was taking her for vacation.
She never came back.
Every city IN the united states
where the French organization
keeps these women has been COM

unheard of. Several Of the girls
now in the Main block and who
chummed with Marietta, loved her

They believe she was cruelty

ACTION on
OLD PEST HOUSE

The option on the new site for
the isolation hospital expires next
Wednesday and residents and
property owners are hoping that
the city council will come to the
relief of the ward and move the
hospital to the new location on the
Spokane river.
The Fourth Ward Improvement
club has worked hard to secure IA
vorable action on this proposition
by the board of health and the
council. The board has recon-
mended the new site and it is now
up to that body to grant the people
of the district in proximity to the
hospital the relief asked for.
John A Finch has increased his
former offer of $4,000 for the old
hospital to $500. This is said to
be a good price for the property
and Is due to the desire on the part
of Mr.. Finch and associates to have
the old hospital torn down.

Instance Cited to Show That Girls Who Tell Are
Never Heard Of Again.

What has become of French girls
who have mysteriOusly disappeared
from Spokane in past years? Have
they been murdered?
There seems to be but conclu-
sion Of police officers who have
taken an interest in The Press
crusade against the nest of dis
reputable slave-owners who are
harbored in this county-that these
girls have been taken to the noun
tains and cruelty done away with.
The organization that deals in
these women Is stronger and more
far-reaching than the Italian Malta.
1t embraces operators in all cities
of the world who are engaged in
traffic in women-young women in
duced to come to this country ex-
pecting to get work or find hus-
bands and are forced into immoral
lives.
In years past efforts have been
made to get French women brought
over to tell of the Vaccinations of
the organization which keeps them

FRAUD IS
ALLEGED

Charles Hill this morning brought
an action against the Washington
Home Co. to recover $71S.4O paid In,
and also for the appointment Of
receiver. Among other things, he
alleges that E. E. Martin, the sec.
rotary treasurer, has appropriated
$4,000 received on contracts to his
own use; that the company has tn-
lawfully and fraudulently issued
contracts amounting to $4,000;
that the contracts are a lottery and
the maturity thereof depends upon
chance and the will and manipula-
ton Of the manager; dummy
board Of directors; no real capital,
but alleged capital of $4,000.
