The hobble skirt has received it's
~vindication. A woman up before a

kicking another of the fair SIX proved
that she was wearing a hobble skirt
at the same time and, of course, the
magistrate had to discharge her.
The moral obviously is; put hobble
skirts on the ladies and keep them
from kicking.-Chief.
If the hobble could be applied to
the mouth a great many men and
women they could wear them with
benefit to the communities in which
they live.

NEW YORK. May 5. District
Attorney Whitman's entire staff is
today preparing raids on stoekades
where white slaves" are kept on
exhibition for purchasers.
That these stockades exist,
where women are kept to be sold
10 Keepers OF resorts, Is part OF the
startling revelations made by Har-
ny Levinson, confessed white
SLAYER
Three men and three women
have been named as keepers of the
sto-ckades and Levinson has fur
nished the district attorney with
specific information as to their To-
cation and the manner in which
the stockades are operated.
A number of arrests have been
planned and before night IL is ex
peoted the machinery Of the dis
trict attorneys office will have
been put In motion and that the
raids will be under way.
All Of Story Not Vet Told.
Edward Carpet. Levinson's at.
torney. admits that his client has
not yet told all he knows.
Carpet. who urged Levinson to
plead guilty. has asked his client
to give the district attorney all the
information he can about the slav-
ers' system. believing that the time
is ripe 20 stamp out the traffic.
"The story OF white slavery reeks
with the filth of the underworld"
said Carpet. "Levinson is one OF
the rats lie is victim of the UNI
holy system.
"Levinsons confession has
shown that New York is a great
clearing house from which imma-
ture. innocent girls are sent
throughout the country. These
girls are sold from stockades run
by women. financially backed by
men. They are sold as SO many
cattle and are delivered as such"

curing girls is terribly efficient be-
