French and Italian immigration
services have connived for years

In towns in Southern Italy the
women outnumber the men ten to
one, so many men having emf
grated to the United States. Sc
agents of the slave traffic have
found it easy to persuade the
women to follow. At Naples, their
chief port of departure, they are
instructed how to proceed on their
arrival at New York. They are
met in New York by other agents,
usually women, who are paid on a
percentage basis for every head
passed by the authorities. OF late
however, it has been difficult for
unattended women to land. The
word of certain societies and per-
sons who had been making it a
business to look after immigrants
has not awaited.
Most of the women, because of
the abundance in Chicago and
New York, are tagged like baggage
to italian camps in the Southern
states.

Whitla Kidnaper Has
Secret Fund Back of Her
HELEN BOYLE, "DOING" 20
YEARS, ASKS TO HAVE HER
CASE REOPENED,

PITTSBURG, Nov. 12.-Much
interest is manifested here over
the announcement that Helen
Boyle, the Whitla kidnaper now
doing" rs years in Riverside
prison, has applied for a reopen
ing of her case and that she has
an immense secret fund behind
her.
1t is the general opinion that
public clamor over the way in
which both the woman and her
husband, Jimmy Boyle, were rail-
roaded to prison through the
Mercer county courts has induced
certain persons to come forward
with the money, though secretly.
The Western Pennsylvania pub
lie knows that not only did Helen
Boyle beg to be allowed to go on
the stand in her own defense. but
when she was about to be SEN
fenced she begged of Judge Will
l1ams to be permitted to say "a
few words" but this was denied
her by Judge w. A. Williams.
Boyle was treated in a similar
way, but later got part of his
statement before the public. 1t is
claimed by friends of the impris-
oned woman that Judge Williams
is a relative of the family of Willie
Whitla, the kidnapped boy.
Western Pennsylvania has been
OF the opinion that not one-tenth
OF the truth in the Whitla case
was ever brought out, and it is
understood it will be revealed if
the woman gets a new trial.

Destroying Loc / SITS.

The method Of discriminating To-
Gusts most generally adopted in Pan
anna has been to dig a trench about
fifty feet in length, two feet wide and
one foot deep, with perpendicular
sides, in which the locusts are driven
by men beating the grass and trees
with switches In this way millions
are collected and are destroyed with a
solution of strong lye soapsuds. The
trench is then retilled with earth so as
to allay the odor.
