to Apprehension of Alleged
Criminals

KANSAS CITY, Sept. 1S.-Five ar
rests were made here last night fol-
lowing the unraveling by the police
of what appears to be a Well-devel-
oped white slave" traffic.
Evidence was procured, the police
assert, that will convict at least two
persons of dealing in young girls.
The case came to the police through
a complaint that a 16-year-old girl
was being detained at a house against
her will. The girl was taken to the
station and there told Captain Whit
sett that her mother had sent her to
the house.
"She not only sent me there" said
the girl, but gave me to understand
that it would not be well for me If
refused to remain there"
The girl further asserted that the
keeper of an uptown cafe had made a
business of procuring young girls.
AS a result, the police caused the ar
rest of the woman who kept the
house; the mother of the girl, the pro-
prietor of the cafe and a book agent,
and held the girl as a witness.

DECLARES WIN NEY
HELD BACK FACTS
DR.. COOK EXPLAINS WHY
PEARY is SKEPTICAL
North Pole DlscoVerer Expresses Be-
lief Big Game Hunter Did Not
Tell Naval Commander
of Rivals Success
tBy Associated Press.I

NEW YORK, Sept. 1S.-The reason
that Harry Whitney, the big game
hunter, withheld from Commander
Peary the fact that Dr.. Frederick A.
Cook had preceded him by year to
the north pole is explained in wire
less message from DR.. Cook VINO Is Is
approaching port on the steamer
Oscar II.
When Peary returned to Etah from
his quest for the pole Whitney merely
told him that Cook had gone beyond
the mark reached by Peary in 1906 DR.
Cook in his wireless message states
that Whitney was instructed by nm
not to inform Peary that he had dis
covered the pole, and that as soon as
Whitney returns from his hunting trip,
which probably will include Hudson
bay, he will elucidate matters.
Dr. Cook is of the opinion that Peary
statements against him are based on
the fact that Whitney failed to tell him
he had already been to the pole.
Whitney now becomes an important
witness in the controversy, and his ar
rival will be awaited anxiously.
Commander Peary, who may sail
from Battle Harbor, Labrador, for sgd
ney, N. s., today or tomorrow, has
sent a wireless telegram denying re-
ports that he is soon to head an Ant
arctic expedition in the search of the
south pole

He states that he is through with
polar field work, but that he always
will be interested in the promotion or
organization of arctic and antarctic
exploration.
Plans are progressing rapidly for the
remarkable welcome which is to be
extended to DR.. Cook on his arrival
here, probably early next Tuesday The
steamer Grand Republic has been CHAR
tered by the several clubs and com
mittees interested in the affair, and 1t
will meet the steamer Oscar II when
the latter reached quarantine.

ladder rugged on the side of the ship
