SCHOOLGIRLS OF Is.
"SLAVES' FOR men
Taken From Classrooms to Walk
Streets for Masters.

Special to The Washington Herald.
New York, Aug. 29.-As a result of the
unexpected discovery last night by men
working for the district attorneys ONCE
Of band of white slavers plying their
trade in the neighborhood of Grand and
Forsyth streets, the grand Jury today in
dicted four more men. Their arrest is ex-
pected momentarily.
The detectives found that these men
preyed almost exclusively on schoolgirls,
who were taken from their class rooms
and placed on the streets to earn money
for their masters. Two girls, Is years
old, who are still registered in A grade
In public schools, were before District At
torney Swami this morning.
Women of the streets continue to come
to the district attorneys office anxious
to lay bare their lives that the men re-
sponsible may be punished. Tessie Dia-
mond, IS years old, told her story today.
The girl said she had been employed in
milliner's shop when she met a man
who professed n liking for her. Tessie
was married at the time and the man de-
clared he also was married.
Telling her he would get a divorce, he
persuaded Tessie to do likewise. On the
pretext OF marriage he persuaded the girl
to live with him and finally urged her to
SO on the streets, telling her that when
sufficient money was made in that man.
ner the marriage would take place. The
girl worked a year for the man and turn
ed over all her earnings. When she sug-
gested that the marriage take place the
man disappeared with all her savings
Later she found he had never been mar
ried. She has made a charge OF grand
larceny as well as white slavery against
the man.
Sorrowing mothers are also among the
throng which visit the Criminal Courts
Building these days. \ Mrs Boyland
who gave her address as Thatford street,
Brooklyn. came to tell OF the ruin Of her
l7-year-old daughter, Bertha. a short time
ago.
The mother attributed her girls shame
to married man who lived in the same
house with the Boyland family. The man
had three other girls working for him,
Mrs. Boyland said, and she begged the
district attorney TO find her daughter for
her.

"PULMOTOR IMPERILS
LIVES" SAYS PULLMAN
Charges Gfe-Savins Offer War Reject
ed by Potomac Boatmen.

Following the announcement that men,
bers of the boat clubs of Washington
would consider resolutions to be pre-
sented to the District Commissioners for
a more complete patrol of the Upper
Potomac, Maj. Raymond w. Pullman su-
pertntendent Of police, in an Interview
yesterday, advocated a high power launch
for duty In that territory but stamped
AS unnecessary many Of the appliances
which are sought by river enthusiasts.
While not opposed to the use of the
pulnotor, Mai. Pullman said that 1t had
been demonstrated that such an appli-
ance had done more to retard the life
saving record than any invention in re-
cent years. He said that he was backed
up in this decision by the highest off,
ciaIs Of the Red Cross
One OF the salient points made by Mai
Pullman In his rejection Of the pulmotor
in general use, was the fact that on
many occasions when a life Is at stake
which could be saved by the Shafer meth
Cd OF resuscitation, those in a position
to recall life await the arrival Of such
an apparatus.
Pullman said that on many occasions
It required from fifteen minutes TO one
hour to get the appliance in working
order.
In speaking of the shafer method OF
resuscitation, Mai. Pullman said that the
police department OF Washington had
done more by way of instruction in this
direction than any other similar depart
ment in the United States.
Many members OF the police force are
familiar with this method of resusciation,
according to Maj. Pullman, and all are
being instructed. officer F. ]. Drummer.
who has been in charge of the river
lookout, he said. was proficient in this
method Of bringing drowning persons to
life. He said that Brunner's services as
an instructor had been offered to the vol
unteer life saving stations established
at the several boat houses, but had been
declined. Officers OF the clubs, he said.
preferred to wait until after the annual
boating events.
II is the intention Of Maj. Pullman to
bend every effort to reduce the danger
on the river. He realizes, he said that
the present boat in commission by the
police IS not adequate to handle the sit
uation and he will use every endeavor
to replace II with one which will meet
the requirements, when funds are avail
able.

Notes Of Camp Ordway
BY WATSON DAVIS.

A pleasant occupation that the officers
and clerks indulge in during idle hours
Is attempting to keep the different drill
manuals and regulations up to date.
Every week or so the War Department
issues a number OF amendments and
changes to paragraphs IN the army man
uals They come printed in sheets, and
the industrious soldier sits down and
spends the afternoon cutting and past
ing the changes In their proper places
Sergt Mai. ]. D. Hood has been keeping
the Army Regulations and the Infantry
Drill Regulations up to date, and he has
to make changes every few days. In
some cases the changes are changed, and
then changed again. The result is a vol
ume OF little slips and crossed out para
graphs.
The men who were left behind in the
Machine Gun Company when their COM
rades went on the hike have a tale of
woe to- tell. The company got moving
orders at noon and marched out at 8
o o'clock with two days rations Accord
ing to Clerk Palmer Sewers, who has
been made temporary second camp cook
because he can boil eggs this is a list
of the provisions left behind for eight
men for three days: One barrel of -four,
two cakes of soap, one-half can of lard.
nine cords of wood. eight grains Of sugar
Mess Sergt Clayde Kennedy Is supreme
cook, Corp. Samuel Melick is head
waiter, and Top" Sergt. Robert L.
Haney is in command. Some men talk
of deserting to other kitchens.
Now that the moving picture machine
is out Of commission. Maj. John Whita-
ker, of the Quartermasters' Corps, plans
to use the electrical generating plant for
the lighting of the camp. 1t is figured
that the little one-cylinder Easolene en-
gine and dynamo would light eighty in
candescent lights. He intends running
wires to all the brigade and regimental
Offices and putting a bulb in each Of the
staff officers tents. Some lights will be
strung in the streets also.
Quarterma ster Sergt. Ernest Coolidge
of Troop A. spent yesterday numbering
the equipment OF the troopers. Hereto
fore mess kits and other articles could be
identified only by private marks but now
each man has a number and each article
OF his equipment bears that number
There is no chance of a mix-up.
Mess Sergt R. A Burke OF Company
f, was very much disappointed when he
heard that only one escort was going to
be taken to a battalion on the hike yes
terday. He had read In some army book
probably obsolete, that the mess sergeant
rode on the company escort wagon. At
any rate, he hiked with the rest of the
men.
Another sport has been discovered at
Ordway. Company NJ has eucher
team. Privates f. J. Taylor and H. A.
Westcott have defeated all card sharks
OF their company, and are looking for
more contests. Sergt. John Taylor and
Corp. Leo Osborne is the second Company

has a special deck OF cards with extremely
large figures so that the men can play
