HOLD CHILDREN AS
SECURITY IN ITALY

Spokane, Wash. - When Daniel
John Kranish on his Moran Prairie
ranch, five miles from Spokane, ca
bled a money order for $1,000 to &C.
noa, Italy, today he released his four
sons, ranging from 20 to nine years of
age, held there as security for funds
he borrowd several months ago to
bring his wife and four daughters to
Spokane. Prominent residents of
Spokane county have interested them
selves in the case, and they say if a
ship agency at Bremen that suit will
be instituted to recover damages.
Swindled I'm Brazil.
Briefly told, Mann's story is that
he and his family of 10 left the viii
lage Of Kuraka, Russia, on October
3, 1908, for Germany, intending to
sail from Bremen to New York and
travel thence by rail to eastern Wash
ington that when they reached the
sailing point the steamship agent in
duced them through msrepresenta-
tion to go to Brazil; that they were
forcibly detained in an immigrant
house in the forest near Prosttenort
where one of the children died, and
finally Mann was swindled out of
$1,000, the savings of a life time of
toll in the czar's land. The family
managed to reach Genoa, where Mann
was forced to leave four sons as a
guarantee to repay money advanced
by Michael Loufti, who took pity on
the family's plight.
Conditions DcpIorable.
1--WE found thousands of men, wo-
men and children on the densely tim
bered and rocky lands in Brazil be-
wailng their fate" Mann said.
Like ourselves, they were immi-
grants from Europe We were warn
ed there not to tell any one about the
real condition Of the country, and, in
fact, We were told that death by
hanging was the penalty for saying
anything about what we saw and the
way we were treated by the officials
in the immigrant house. l was told
that dozen others had been executed
for disobeying this Injunction"
