day-WOmen Witnesses
Driven from City.

Three more indictments charging
white slavery will be handed down this
morning by the grand jury investigat-
ing police graft and vice. One of these
will be against a man who, it is al
legged, enslaved young stenogrspher
employed in a Broadway Office build
ing. The case. according TO the
District Attorney, presents a strong
contrast to those already exposed and
shifts the scene from the lower East
and West sides 10 Broadway and Forty
second Street.
Charges of interference with wit
nesses against the men already under
Indictment and those against whom IN
dictments are under consideration were
preferred yesterday by James h. Smith,
Assistant District Attorney, in charge
of the investigation.
"More than seventy-fve witnesses, all
women. have been located by our de-
tectives in Philadelphia" said Mr.. smith
last night. "They were driven out OF
New York under threats by friends OF
certain policemen and by white slavers
against whom we are working. They
say there is nothing to interfere with
them in Philadelphia as long as Ihey
do not talk too much.
"Our detectives found most OF them
in the vicinity of Noble Street, Cailow,,
hill Street, North Franklin Street, ana
from North Sixth Street TO North Tenth
Street. and on Vine and Race streets IN
the Chinatown section Of the city. Two
of those who were witnesses against
Yushe Botwin end were discharged
from the House OF Detention when Bot
win pleaded guilty were found In North
Seventh Street. Several more were
found in Paterson. They all believe
that if they stay away and keep their
mouths shut they will be able 70 re-
turn to New York when this investiga-
tion is over and won't be put on the
blacklist
Two additional indictments will be
returned to-day against David Parish,
alias Dave Siberia" who was indicted
last Tuesday on the testimony of Ida
Cohen, eighteen years old. A similar
tale Of injury at his hands was told to
the grand jury yesterday by Bessie
Schneider. Of 32 East Third Street, on
which additional indictments will be
found

Trenton. n. j., Aug. 28.-United

candidacy six years ago caused the
break between President Wilson, then
Governor Of New Jersey, and James
Smith, jr., the Democratic boss of the

ton here to-day. This time, however,
Mr.. MARITIME has the President against
him, and he will have 20 fight the DEM
ocratic machine, which has lined up for
John W. Westcott. The chief distinc-
tion Of Mr. Westcott is that he twice
nominated Mr.. Wilson for the Presi-
dency and is now seeking his reward.
No particular fault has been found by
the Presidents friends with Senator
Marines record, except that he showed
too much independence and refused to
vote as directed on certain measures.
The President, however, has sent word
10 his New Jersey friends that Mr..
MARITIME must not be returned, and he

We arc constantly receiving lessons

which is nothing more or less than Il

large powers in an effort to stop waste

will begin closing at =. NJ. and res

TO close their doors an hour earlier.
Theaters and operas will be closed on

and music halls on Wednesdays. The

consumption of coal for lighting.
These facts should be extremely sig
