" UESTS of Kate J. Adams, % Of the

at Towards theater5 last Monday night,
says the Chicago Tribune. Miss Adams
is superintendent of the il stitUtion, and
IN explanation Of hera desire to have all
the young women in her charge see this
play, she said;
Very recently witnessed a perform
ance of The Traffic in company with a
girl who had herself been a white slave.
This young woman agreed with me that
there was not shade of eXaggerattOn
IN any single detail of the play, and
that facts as they exist today in many,
many cases that are daily coming to
light in Chicago exceed in atrOcity the
scenes depicted in the play
Il have heard considerable comment
a play and condemnation of it. In the
first place, it should be remembered
that this play is witnessed almost ex-
ClusiVely by an adult audience-nOt
such an audience as we see in the NOV
ing picture shows, composed largely
of children.
'If a girl is to be protected and shell
tered all her life, perhaps there is no
reason why she should witness a play
like The Traffic. but personally feel
that every girl employed in the indus
commercial life is out in the world
alone, would be safer and better
equipped for her life struggle If she
knew the methods employed by the
prOcurers and panderers.

nave a girl under my care at present, a
federal white slave witness, who was
held as a prisoner by two Italians with
loaded reVOlYers for several weeks, IN
til her chance came to escape and re-
port the facts to the police; another
beaten to insensib1ity by a man be-
cause she did not earn enough money;
another locked in a room above a
Greek. restaurant, the room being IN
der guard of two men when the raid
was made. White slavery is a reality
and those who say it is a myth do not
know the facts.
DO the people of the big cities know
that men doing business along the
Identical lines followed by Sacco in
The Traffic are being convicted in the
morals court every week, and that the
committee of Is is fighting the bust
ness tooth and nail and calling on the
citizens of Chicago for moral and finan-
cial backing?
1T is much better that these condi-
tons should be shown up at the thea
ter than continue to exist in the dark
ness where they have thriYen so many
years. The Traffic is scarcely a play,
it is more of a photograph of actual

Title to Six-eighths of Land
Is Given Railway in
.Decision.

BY a decis Pm Of the eighth court of
civil appeals, handed down Thursday,
the Galveston, Harrisburg and San An
tonic Railway company was given title
to a six-eights share Of property val
ued at approximately $2000,O0O. The
property involved in the suit extends
from Mesa avenue to Cotton avenue,
comprising about % acres AS to one
eighth Of the property the railway
company was awarded the easement
by the higher court, of using it for
ceases on the part Of the company,
then the property is to revert to w.
W. Mills and the Hague heirs, who the
higher court held, were the owners.
Litigation Stnrts in 41st Court.
The suit was first instituted in the
41st district court against the rail-
road company by f. =. and Charles
Stevens, w. W Mills and the Hague
heirs about two years ago.
Mr.. Mills and his wife were the own
ers Of a portion Of the property in
vOlved in the suit and j. P. Hague
was the owner of another portion. u
T. White and the Stevens were the
assignees OF the original grantors
The claim of the plaintiff was that
the defendant company had only been
granted an easement in the property,
thai easement comprising the right to
use che property for railroad purposes
and depot grounds
The rail road company had estab-
Hshed its tracks and built the Stanton
street depot and had used the prop
srty for about 80 years. The plain
tiffs in bringing the suit claimed that
the conditions Of the easement under
which the land had been granted had
been violated The real purpose of
the suit was to establish the rights
CT the different plaintiffs to the prop
erty.
Is Carried 70 Appeals Court.
Judge Waithall, OF the district court
returned a Judgment in favor OF the
defendant company, and the plaintiffs
in the lower court carried the case
up on appeal to the civil court Of ap-
peals-
The higher court let Mr. White and
the Stevens out on the ground that
there could be no assignment in their
case. The judgment of the lower court
as to Mr.. Mills and the Hague heirs
was reformed to the extent that their
right was established to One-eighth of (
the property and the railroad company |
had the right to use the property only /
so long as that use was for railroad I
purposes.
Judge W NJ. Coldwel, who prose- !
Cuted the appeal Of the case to the
civil court Of appeals, stated that the /
case would be taken to the supreme /
court
