NEW YORK, July Mrs. Charles
G. Gates, of Minneapolis, Mimi, en-
phatically denied to-day that she and
her husband had quarreled. The re-
port of the quarrel became current
last week, when it was published also
that Gates father-in-law knocked

14-YEAR-OLD
VICTIM Of
SLAVERS
TAKEN
Child Tells How She Was Lured
by Girl, Sixteen-Chief Is
Stirred by New Facts.

A sensational story of being entieed
into a life of shame by 16-year- old
girl was told to the police Friday
morning by 14-year-old Dora Roth
stein. II Broyles Street. who was ar
rested by detectives Thursday night
after she had been missing from her
home since Monday night.
Chief Beavers is making thorough
investigation of the statements Of tn.
girl and Is confident that the develop
ments of her story will unearth an
other angle of the vice system Of
which Hattie Smith became the VIC
tim.
The girl named by Dora Rothstein
as a procuress. Corlnne Wilson, SS4
Highland Street, was placed under
arrest at the same time as the Roth
stein girl. Two men were arrested
early Friday morning. after the Roth
stein girl had told her story A charge
OF kidnapping has been placed against
one and the other is charged with dis
orderly conduct.
Four To Be Tried Friday.
The four-the Rothstetn gin and
the three who are alleged to have
brought about her downfall-will be
tried before Judge Broyles Friday
afternoon, and IT is expected that she
will name other men besides the two
who are under arrest.
The girls story to the police was
one of the most sensational Chief
Beavers has heard since he inaugu-
rated his vice investigation. She had
been missing from her home since
Monday night. and after her father
had failed to locate her he asked the
police to help him.
Plain Clothes Officers Green and
McKibben arrested the two girls as
they came out Of downtown NOV
ing picture show at o'clock Thurs
day night.
The girl declares she ran away
from home at the request Of Cor
rhine Wilson.
Il went out to White City Monday
afternoon" Dora Rothstein said, land
met the Wilson girl about supper
time. We went around the park to-
gether. and she suggested that we go
down into the woods and pick some
blackberries
Slept in Ball Park.
When we got there she told lot Of
bad stories, and we had a great time.
Then she began telling me how much
money could make and what a good
time l could have with the boys, and
suggested that we hunt a couple of
men.
Il didn't go home any more that
night. and have been with the VIII
son girl until last night. when We
were arrested. We met the men ear
ly in the week, and one night we all
slept in the baseball park. And ons
afternoon they took the Wilson girl
and myself down to the old Mount
Gilead campmeeting grounds, and We
stayed out in the woods all night.
They brought US back to Atlanta
the next afternoon and since thar
time Corrinne and have been roam
ing the streets. meeting some Of the
boys"

metal at the rate of 6i,00O,Oo0 tons per
year. In steel ingot output, too, up to
October, 1912, production was the largest
in the history of the industry The steel
corporation alone produced approximately
i,6O0,OOO tons. Another impressive fact is
that open hearth furnaces now building
with an approximate capacity of 2,00O,O0O
tons annually will become active before
the close of the year while another 900. 900
tons capacity will become available dur
ing the first half of 1914
This outlook has caused some stee,
companies to seek market for prospec-
tive billet and sheet bar tonnage during
the third quarter at concessions as cur
rent steel prices are relatively above
those prevailing for finished rolled nro-
6uction.
On the other hand inquiries are not in

circle facing two other chairs Is feet
away in each of which were placed four
bright colored balls. At count the two
children ran to these chairs, too.f the
balls one by one and carried them across
to the chairs they had just left. The one
transferring his four balls and seating
himself In the now empty chair first won
the game.
The object? Why, the brownie game
emphasizes team work, and develops the
sense of rythm. the skipping game teaches
quickness OF thought, in selecting a part
ner without vascillating among three or
four; the first game with the ball requires
quickness and deftness of movement, and
counter-movement, and the other ball
game teaches swift movement and firm
grasp. All of them, besides entertaining
the children, cultivate concentration, at
tention and good nature, and isn't that
worth while?
Careful lest the children should become
tired with one sort of work, Miss Smith
played a soft air and all seated them
selves in the kindergarten chairs which
were placed around the tables, and as the
music changed to a slow, steady rythm,
each head went down on the table and
every child went to Sleep while the
music continued; there was time for a
long, long, map. Then Miss Smith took
her place at the tables, all the kinder
garteners walked up, and all sang a mo-
ton song initiating various musical in
struments. Each small fist went down Oh
the tables to represent the big base drum
and each child blew Justify on an imagi-
nary gay tin horn. There was one little
girl especially who had a true musician s
lingering for both piano and violin, and
another little maid sang with spontar-
iety, and clearness that was delightful
We left them busy with scissors and
pretty colored cardboard, which was to be
cut and folded into work baskets. To ap-
preciate how much these little people are
gaining, one must remember that they
are very small folk, that they have gone
but very short way on the road to learn
ing. The names of colors are not quite
familiar to them yet; it is not easy for
them to cut exactly along given
straight line. To share with others and
not to expect first place in everything is
another lesson, that wonderfully impor-
tant requirement, concentration, is an
other-and they are learning all of these.
Miss Grim began the work with sew
ing class for the older girls, then she
opened the kindergarten, next cooking
class Now a night school and Sunday
afternoon talk have been added. There is
much of the play ground work done, the
new movement which we are just now
beginning to appreciate The urgent
need is another instructor, for there is
much more than enough work for the
two.

If you are fond of children you would
enjoy a trip to the Fourteenth Street
kindergarten at Ensley, and second visit
would be as great pleasure as the first,
for there are some of the most attrac-
tive and interesting children there one
could find.
Early In the present year Miss Grim and
Miss Smith came here to establish a kim
dergarten to be carried on under the aus
pices of the womens societies of the
Methodist churches. The Tennessee Coal,
Iron and Railroad company gave the use
of cottage, and on the same lot built a
kindergarten room. This room is truly
beautiful; it is very large and has plenty
of windows, which are supplied with
green shades, and the walls are painted a
soft, restful cream At one end of the
room is rostrum, on the left of which
are two compartments for kindergarten
supplies. There are blackboards, electric
lights, so new folding chairs, three hand
some kindergarten tables, and supply
OF little green kindergarten chairs No

for little folks to work upon 1t, and still

Painted on the floor is the customary and
very necessary circle for use in games.
A piano stands at one end oil the room
There are no pictures on the walls. In
stead there is an 1S-inch border of buff
paper extending all the way around the
room. On this border, colored pictures of
animals and birds have been placed In
very artistic manner. In one place
there are turkeys, roosters, fluffy baby
chicks and hens; in another there are
several kinds of dogs; in another gray
cat cycling a mouse. Farther along are
all sorts of pigeons, followed by swallows
in different positions. Much has been said
and written about the effect upon the
mind of the colors, decoration, and ar

FORCE IN WHEAT
Greater Momentum Than
Any Time Since Adverse
Weather Reports

Chicago, May 31.-Buying force in wheat

time since the beginning of adverse
weather and crop reports from the south
west. Notwithstanding setbacks due to
heavy profit taking, the market closed
steady at an advance of 1449s@fc net.
Corn finished AG1Ac up; oats with a
gain of 1smAc and provisions varying
from &C down to an increased cost of lOc
Blistering temperatures and absence of
reeded rain worried not only Kansas, but
Oklahoma and Missouri, and Nebraska
as well. What was worse, no forecast
gave the slightest hope of a general rain.
A material cut in the official wheat crop
of India tended further to disturb the
bears and there were also predictions of
small world shipment. Floods of selling
orders from fortunate longs appeared to
be all that prevented considerably higher
prices than were reached in the wheat
market. On all hard spots the offerings
invariably grew to such volume as to
turn the course of trade.
But then quickly lessened. A notable
feature of business was Improvement IN

the eastern millers.
