ESCAPED TO FRANCE.
Principal Offenders IN "White Slave
Traffic May Jump Bail.

CHICAGO, Oct l3.-That the
great crusade that the federal gov
ernment, through the district at.
torney's Office, is waging against the
white Slave" traffic, has suffered a
defeat in its most important case,
was discovered yesterday when il
was learned that Alphonse and Eva
Dufour, two of the principal offend.
ers indicted last July, had slipped
through the net Of the law and es'
capped to France.
They we're held in prison for some
time because they we're unable to
furnish the bail, which was fixed at
$4,000 for each Of them. In August,
however, they succeeded in having
the amount reduced to $4,000 for
both Of them. This amount was
turned over to the government in
cash and property and they were re-
leased. They are now in France.
The United States has no exradition
treaty with France, covering the
class Of offense with which they are
charged.
Proceedings leading to the for
feiture OF their bonds viii be started
before Judge Lands today. The
court will set a day for their trial
and If they do not appear at that
time their bond will be forfeited.

PUEBLo's SIDE OF THE STORY
Umpires, Ducky Holmes and Sioux
City Scribe All Scored.

City Scribe All Scored.
PUEBLO, Colo, July 1S.-(Special)-So
much has been said by the papers around
the circuit regarding the recent games
here between Sioux City and Pueblo and
the scenes which followed that a statement
Of the Pueblo side of the story is forth
coming.
For two weeks Patterson's Indians nave
received the rankest kind of deal at the
hands of Umpires Brennan and Davis. For
a time the fans were passive and Davis
got off lightly. When Holmes and his pen
uant aspiring Sioux struck town, 1t was
expected that Brennan would have his
troubles. Holmes began his blufflng tao
tics In the first game Sunday and no less
than eight close decisions were handed to
the visitors, giving them the game. Bren-
mans decisions became so unbearable that
one heated fan followed him out Of the
grandstand and knocked him down. Bren-
nan showed no Improvement on Monday
and Tuesday, when he was kept in hot
water throughout. The Pueblo police IN
large numbers kept the crowd off Brennan
on Tuesday and after the game Pueblo
ball directors went to Brennan and sug-
gested that he ride to his hotel with the
Sioux City team for protection. At this
point w. A. Winston, sporting editor of
the Sioux City Journal, ran up to Brennan
ana advised him to go out with the crowd
and later said: Take a poke at one OF
them and show them you are game" At
this point Chief OF Police McCafferty. I'm
plain clothes, told Winston to keep quiet.
Instead Winston kept telling Brennan to
nit somebody and after he had been adj
Wsed by the chief to stop several times he
finally insulted the officer and his arrest
followed. At that time the chief did not
know he was a visitor in the city.
"Ducky" Holmes tried his usual bluffinR
game on the umpire and when the fans
stood 1t as long as possible, they took a
hand and "Ducky'' was sore because he
lost at his own game. Brennan was given
protection except on Sunday, when the
first demonstration was made, when one
ran slipped out OF the stand and a~ssaulted
him.
II Is foolish for anyone 10 suppose that
Winston was arrested for so small an OF.
Tense as he has given publicity.
While here both Brennan and Davis are
said to have made the remarks that they
would fix the Pueblo team when they
caught them on the road.
Pueblo has been injured in a sportins
way by the misrepresenting stories sent oul
by a scribe who had no one to blame hui
himself for getting into trouble. He PLAYED
the Happy HoOligan stunt when the troubI,
was all over and now he is setting IN 3

HOLMES PROTESTS ON PUEBLO
Says He Will Not Take His Team to
TINT Town Again.

SIOUX CITY, Ia, July ia Denver spe-
cial to the Journal, says: Because he con-
siders Pueblo an unsafe place to take his
ball players, Manager 'Ducky'' Holmes of
Sioux City has written Secretary Farrell
authority to cut out the August series in
Pueblo.
II have written Secretary Farrell" said
Manager Holmes, that the lives of my
ball players would not be safe in Pueblo
and that 1t would only invite a tragedy to
go there again. To win a game would
mean a riot. The lawless class which at
end the games will not allow an umpire
to render a decision as he sees It,"
Manager Holmes threatens that unless he
shall obtain consideration from organized
ball he will disband his team and disrupt
the league. For fear OF violence members
OF the Sioux City team did not leave their
hotel at night while in Pueblo.
