PASTOR
ELDERS OF CHURCH AT
TEMPT TO BALK AD-
VERTISED EXPOSURE

Cincinnati, Aug. 6.-Members of the
Methodist church of Westchester, o.,
who were arraigned before the con
gregation last Sunday by their pastor
Rev. j. Spencer Smith, on the charge
of permitting him and his family to
go hungry, are anxious to have the
Eastor silenced.
Three OF the elders, headed by F. r.
Phillips, came to Cincinnati today
and appealed to prominent officers OF
the church here to help them.
They said Rev Smith had tackled up
signs all over the town, proclaiming
that he wanted everybody TO come
next Sunday evening and hear him
preach on why Our Church is Dead. y
He says on these llacards that he
will tell some of the inside facts about
the ruling of the congregation, and
that his talk will be startling.
Elders were told that no one here
has any authority over Rev Smith
and so they went to Athens, o., to con,
suit with Bishop David H. Moore.

THAW CAST:
NEAR END
ATTORNEYS WILL SUM UP
THEIR SIDE EARLY
TODAY
THE DEFENSE RESTED

White Plains, Aug 6.-Thaw rest
ed his case this afternoon. Attorneys
will sum up in the morning. By p.
m. everything will be finished so far
as the lawyers are concerned!
Then it only remains for q decision
of the judge TO come.
Mrs Thaw was on the stand a few
minutes again this afternoon testify
ing as to Harry's associates. ~.
Dr.. Schaid, one of Thaw's alienists,
DR.. A, l. Harris, another, and ]. N.
Schroeder schoolmate of Thaw's,
gave testimony in his favor.
There is no doubt abort it now;
shall never go back to Matteawan."
With these words Harry X Inaw
Friday entered the final stage of his
battle for freedom with an assurance
in his own mind that he has made out
a good case, and that Justice Mills
will declare he is sufficiently sane to
be released. He expects to decide the
case by next Thursday.
Thursdays and Fridays testimony,
of the white-haired mother Of the pris-
oner, was the climax of the Thaw
case, and the apparent effect it pro-
duced on Justice Mills created
strong belief that he would free Thaw
from the insane asylum.

Pittsburg, Pa, Aug GA hundred

Her pitiful screams for mercy were
heard by woman living nearby, at
2 o'clock.

ooh, don't. Please DON'T Don't do it..
Please and her beautiful voice
died away into a choking gurgle, fol-
lowed by perfect silence.
Then a struggle was heard, and the
sound of falling body, and then all
was still.
A foul murder had been committed,

S. w. Richards, from Justice Blake's
court in Canton, came to Youngstown
Thursday with a warrant for William
Rodenbaugh, William Marshall and w.

charged with jumping a board bill.
Constable Richards after being de-

1t was shortly afterwards that the
three strike breakers were employed
at the sheet department Of the Youngs-

Kinney, chief of police at the East
Youngstown mill, refused to admit the
officer because the warrant that he
held did not bear the seal Of the justice
court where it was issued.

that a certain clique of men are being
transferred from one mill TO another

TRAFFIC

NEARLY EVERY PORT
ALONG LAKE
VICTIMS FOREIGN ERS

Cleveland, o., Aug. 6.-White slave
traffickers are operating in a syndi-
cate covering the entire state, Immi-
grafton Inspector Cullen said today.
So perfect is the organization that
great difficulty is expressed in break
ing it up.
Fourteen arrests of foreign girls at
Youngstown last month furnished In
spector Cullen with clues on which to
back up evidence he already possessed
as to the existence of the syndicate.
Inspector Cullen unearthed a series
of operations by the traffickers that
led him to almost all of the Northern
Ohio lake ports and to Buffalo as
places of entrance for the women and
girls.
Many are coming into the country
by way of New York and Baltimore,
but a large percentage arrive through
Canada.
The inspector spent several weeks
at Youngstown and vicinity. In one
Youngstown saloon he found three
women and later at a place that he
says the chief of police had denied
contained women, he arrested ten
women.

that the entire state is covered by a
white slave syndicate. The girls at
Youngstown are all foreigners. Only
two or three of them speak word Of

ance the cans containing the fish had
to be carried on the backs of men en-
ployed by Mr.. Cassidy for the pur-
pose. The roads were so muddy from
the rain of the previous day that six
hours was required to drive from here

ty. where they will be turned loose in
