PITTSBURG REFUSES TO JOIN IN
WHITE SLAVE WAR
Pittsburgh, Pa, March .21.-The
third city in the big Four" of the
national white slave trade today re-
fused to join with Chicago in the at
tempt to stamp out the traffic.
The Illinois commission on its way
here today wired Mayor Magee of
Pittsburgh, saying they would arrive
in Pittsburg at $50 O'Clock and
would be glad to meet him and carry
his message with them to their meet
ing with Gov. Tener at Harrisburg.
Magee did not answer the tele-
gram, and did not even have the or
binary courtesy to meet the Illinois
senate commission at the train. Gov.
Tener is not likely to be much better.
The Illinois commission has de-
cided on how it will present its re-
quest for a national conference to
consider a minimum wage law for
women to President Wilson. Out of
respect to Wilson this plan has not
been given out.

Potter's Field at Dunning, were at
tended by a large number Of the
members and their friends from all
parts of the city.
The inspirational influence of the
unique service, the mute appeal from
that city of thousands of unknown
dead, and every unmarked mound,
impressed the lesson upon all OBJ
servers and inspired the several
speakers to moral protest against
that boosted civilization which has
utterly forgotten the Golden Rule in
the mad rush. and competition for
material pleasures and vanities. In
that environment of thousands of
dead, the human waste and driftwood
carelessly thrust into this public
dump from the workshop of a great
city, lies an indictment against our
boosted Sciy1c pride and justice"
which dwindles the 1tmagnifcent'
skyscrapers, public charities and
"city beautiful into grim prisons,
public shame, and places of horror.
The details of the ceremonies were
in charge of a committee which,
when the large number of graves was
noted, realized that it would require
the help of a small army to decorate
the individual graves in the short
space of one day. They thereupon
arranged the many contributions of
flowers in the form of large mound |

Felix Diaz had bombarded the city
for ten days Soon after their ar

by which he was freed to rdn under

dead under their bullets.

president, was taken under a

and lodged in the arsenal There he
was a prisoner of General Diaz in the

The rebel troops are not to be re-

Gustavo Madero was regarded as
a much more powerful man than the

quarreled with DR.. Vasquez Gomez
he and Gustavo forced Jose Pine sua-

though he was then little known.
This the enemies of Madero never
