WHITE SLAVES TRAFFIC.
Spanish Girls Purchased from Parents
 Are Sent Home.

Corunna, Spain, July 25.--The em- barkation at this port of a number of young women on board the Spanish steamship Isle de Panay prior to the sailing of the vessel, nominally for Teneriffe, aroused the suspicious of the local authorities, who to-day conduct ed an Investigation. Dozens of young girls mostly minors, were found stow ed away on board the steamer The authorities forced all the women they could find to disembark, Some of the girls 1t was learned later, had been bought from their parents, while oth- CTS had run away from home. As far as possible they all will be returned to their homes.
 The crew claimed the ship was bound for Teneriffe, where the girls were to become household servants, but if is believed that the steamer was going on to Cuba, where the white slave trade is said to flourish.
