their homes and taking them into
Canada, where he made white slaves
of them, Jack Bratton of Crookston,
Min, received a sentence OF one
month in the provincial Jail at Winni'
peg, says a dispatch from the Cana
dian city.
Bratton left his home town and
went to Canada, and after his arrival
there he wrote to Maude and Edna
Pierce Of Fargo asking them to come
to him. They did so and he married
Maude, while Edna, cousin, stayed
with them for company. After being
in Canada for a short time with the
two girls he took them to the houses
in Winnipeg's red light district and
received their ill-gotten gains.
= There were two charges against
him, and the first was dismissed for
want of evidence, owing to the abb
sence Of three of the principal wit.
nesses. At the second he was found
guilty and sent up to take his trial.

The announcement from Washing.

to be sent to the boundary line has
had disturbing effect in Mexico,
where it is not understood.
Senior De LaBarra, in his afternoon
interview, said that he had three rea.

"the relations between the two coun-

Learning that the police were on
his trail, he took the girls around
western Canada, making them prosti-
tute themselves to all who came
along, while he took the money they
made. After this tour they again
