That's the supreme law of this Union, isn't
it, Judge Davis?
Is that the law under which the San An
tonic Good Shepherd Laundry has been sup
piled with forced labor, costing nothing to the
slave-d drivers?
Have you made town-aw that overrides
the Constitution of the United States.
Tell us about it, Judged
The Fourteenth Amendment to the Z. S.
Constitution says that
"No State shall make or enforce any law
which shall abridge the privileges and i'm
munities of citizens of the United States; and
no State shall deprive Any PERSON of life,
liberty or property, aoith0W due process Of
zaao, nor deny to 1NY PERSON within its
jurisdiction the equal protection Of its lars
Judge Davis, are these laundry slaves re-
duced to involuntary servitude by the same
method that you would be willing to see
applied to yOur sister, or your daughter, or
to yourself!
Are you and Mayor Brown, and this Chi
cago woman doing in San Antonio thing
which the Supreme law says that no State
shall do?
IS San Antonio vested with a corporate
power greater than that of Texas, and greater
than that Of the United States?
Tell us about it, Judge Davis!
Tell where you, and the Mayor, and the
Police Chief, and the Police Czarina get the
legal power to confne American citizens in
O. private institution, and where they are
forced to labor for q foreign church.
Police-courts, after giving defendants a
public trial, do exercise the power to send
convicts to the public works-and the legality
of that is most questionable, except where
warrant charges crime, and the accused valves
indictment by grand jury.
But no police-court has a shadow of right
to sentence people to imprisonment and servi-
tude, IN q private January, RIM for profit BY
Il SO-CALLED RELIGIOUS DENOML-
NATION.
Isn't that sound law, Judge?
Before an ugly situation breeds bloody re-
suits, Judge Davis and Mayor Brown had
better read the Amendments to the Constitu-
ton of the Union.
These San Antonio officials are guilty Of
fragrant violations of the highest law Of the
Republic, and presumably of the highest law
of Texas, provided the Chicago importation
has eOr5tten me the truth.
How about it, Mr. Mayor?
How about it, Chief?

methods, how long do these Catholic slave
drivers keep their human chattels?

But the affable Judge told Mrs Bannister
that he did not know of any girl named Laura

That she boosted to Mrs. Bannister of
having brought back to San Antonio, from
Houston, grown woman, 81 years old, and
of having shut her up in the laundry sweat
shop for term Of years
Possibly she refers to this, in her sentence
about "a myth"
Does she deny the use of those words to
Mrs Bannister?
What conceivable motive did that noble
and respectable lady have for fabricating "a
myth?"

everything that Mrs Bannister told me.

statement No. g."
AS to whether the indignant Polce-matron
is fat, at 155 pounds, depends upon whether
or not she is tall and stately. If she is low
and round-shouldered, 155 pounds are enough
to make her look fat, to a slender critic who
is less burdened with flesh.
Her age, she avoids mentioning, therefore
[ presume it must be delicate point with
her
If she is in excellent health-which [ see
no reason to doubt-she has the advantage
of the average slave of the Pope's American
slave-gangs.
AS to this Chicago woman being Presby-
terrain, I have this to say
No honest, sincere Presbyterian would ever
abet the Roman system in violating Amer
lean law, and trampling upon the legal rights
of American girls, as this nominal Presby-
terrain confesses that she has done
If she doesn't know what are the personal
liberties of citizens, guaranteed by our
supreme laws, she has no more fitness for her
position than quack has to practise medicine.
She says she came to San Antonio recon-
mended by the Chicago "School of Civics
and Philosophy"
Wasn't there woman IN TEXAS who had
sense enough to act as Police-matron, and
who knew enough about law to know, that

that Laura Stone was arrested under war

Does the Poice-matron allege that the girl

BERLIN TO TURKEY
American Writes of His Trip on
Train Carrying German
Officials.
MARKS OF THE GREAT WAR

Correspondence of The Associated Press)
London, Aug. 28.-An American
who recently made the journey from
Berlin to Constantinople on the cele-
brated Balkans express writes the
following letter of his trip to the
London Times:
Twice week train of seven cars
pulls into Berlin. 1t is labeled in
foot-high letters throughout all its
length 'Balkanzug. This is the
much-lauded Berlin Constantinople
express, which conveys military Off
GERS and officials to and from the
Turkish capitol.
"The obtaining of permit to
travel on the Balkan express is a
matter Of extreme difficulty. Every
passenger, after a thorough examina-
ton, is provided with a train ticket
like passport, which in fact it really
is. 1t bears the portrait of the trav-
eler and all particulars of use to the
police and the military These par
ticulars are written in German and
Turkish. The train is Turkish
train when it is in Ottoman terri
tory, but Immediately it leaves it
becomes German train. All the
train attendants are German.
with characteristic thoroughness
the Teuton has effaced all the notices
that were printed in English or
French. For instance, the notices as
to hot air for the heaters which
hitherto were printed in English,
French and German, have been alter
ed, the English and French being
BACKED out and Turkish translation
added. All through the train there
are notices warning the travellers az
to talking Of military matters and
suggesting that spies are everywhere.
Populace Interested. J
"As the train passes through the
various countries along the route the
populace is immensely interested. The
stops are short, none longer than 20
minutes; at Dresden only seven min
utes are allowed. Passengers may
not leave the station, but are expect
ed to keep to the platform. For most
part the travellers are herman anu
Austrian officers and officials, but a
few Turks use the train for journeys
as far even as Berlin, where now the
tarbush may be seen in the streets.
Running through Serbia the most
impressive signs of the German occu-
patton were the encampments OF the
troops alongside the permanent way.
There are huge notices up at all sta
lions warning the inhabitants to keep
away from the railway. No one is al
lowed on the platforms, because the
whole country is still infected with
typhus, and there has to be the most
rigorous supervision for this reason.
All along the line may be seen the
trenches and the rusty barbed-wire
entanglements that tell Of the fighting
months ago. AT each little fortified
encampment German soldiers have
planted vegetable gardens, over which
may be read the legend, "Krieg-
sacker" (war garden). There were no
signs OF their having planted any
wheat or grain,
Through Serbia nearly all the
bridges Of any size had been de-
