TORN AWAY
Bars Ripped From White
Slave Dens in the
Windy City.

Chicago, Sept. 9.--1ron bars are
being ripped off the windows of dis
orderly houses by order of Chicago 3
new chief of police TO whom the
Woman's World committee furnished
Information of the places where
white slaves were held prisoners and
where white slavery. in its crodest
form glowered It's menace to pos
sible girl victims. Chief Steward had
an investigation made of the facts
reported by the committee and when
they were confirmed he took prompt
and vigorous action.
: That traffic in girls, their capture
and sale by cadets and procurers to
keepers of disorderly houses, not only
existed but prospered on great, even
international scale was discovered n
few years ago when barred windows
were found In a house which had
been used as a brothel. IT was then
proved that girls who were enticed
or tricked into that place had been
kept as prisoners. as slaves to com j.
merciallzed lust and even as drudges.
They had disappeared utterly from
the knowledge of their friends and
relatives. Their tears and pleadings
had been in vain and no communica-
ton with the world outside the bar
red windows was permitted. Ernest
a. Bell. secretary of the Illinois Wig
lance Association and q member OF
the committee. made that discovery
and he is was who showed Chief
Steward photographs of place after
place on Armour avenue where grim
iron bars across the windows told of
the white slavery within. and which
resulted I'm energetic official measures.
Raids mhde by prosecutors for the
state and federal government have
confirmed the fact that girl captlves,
often daughters of excellent homes,
we're held by lock and force to do
the degrading bidding of their pur-
chasers and procurers. These meth
ods were not followed in Chicago
alone but in other cities. The bar
red windows, however, were the ba-
sis for the new Illinois act prepared
by the Woman's World committee
against the detention Of girls In such
places by force or under pretense of
dept, law enacted in April and now
In force. Investigations in Boston
and other cities show that similar
law Is needed in nearly every state
OF the union and efforts are urged to
secure both such law and its enforce
ment.
