HOW ALLEGED WHITE sLAVERs
Piled THEIR TRADE
One of the favorite stunts Of the
Saratoga hotel alleged white slave
gang in trapping girls was to have
one of the pack of wolves represent
himself as a reporter for the Tribune.
When the girl victim had been
lured to room 900 of the Saratoga on
promise of a good job with travel
ing theatrical company, an attempt
was made to attack her after the
doors of the room had been securely
bclted.
If the girl was a hard one to get
around, often a member Of the gang
would knock at the door when the
struggle to despeil the girl was on.
'Who is it," the gangsters in the
room would ask
"a reporter for the Tribune. What
is going on in there?" would be the
answer,
Then the members of the gang
would tell the girl to be quiet or the
newspaper man on the outside would
call the police and the door would be
broken down and the whole affair
would be printed in the Tribune.
This argument, according to at
taches of the states att'y's office,
often forced the girl to do the bid
ding of the men when all other
means had failed.
TWO more arrests were made by
police from the states attorneys Of
fee last night on the Saratoga case.
A woman and man we're taken. They
are said to be members Of the most
powerful white slave gang that has
been unearthed in Chicago in years.
Their names were withheld by the
nrosecutor's Office because at least
four others are sought in connection
with the stories told by Marian and
Charlotte Palmer, two girls who fell
into the wiles of the wolves when
they were looking for job after they

p: 4 VS. 10; Atwater ..
With both pitchers in good form but
inconsistent support on the part of
the two teams, the p, & w. game,
played at Atwater last Sunday, ended
in favor of the former, with the score
10-s.=
Slow grounds prevented any. sensa-
tional playing and was responsible for
q number of costly errors The first
two runs on both sides resulted from
errors and 0verthrows. Willmar's ten
runs from thirteen hits and =Atwater's
nine runs from nine hits show some
rather slow playing ON the part CT
both teams. Kavanaugh struck out
thirteen men during the game and
walked two; while SHaroldson struck
out twelve, issuing no passes.
. Williams was the star slugger Of
the. game getting three singles, and,
one three base hit out Of I'VE trips to
the plate. Lipsit. Of Atwater, came
next with three hits out Of five times
up.
At the beginning of the sixth inning
with the score eight to three in favor
Of the WiAmar bunch, 5Atwater, started
things going. Four hits and number
q, errors resulted in three runs in
this inning and by tallyipg one run
in each OF the last three innings they
.caWe up to within one run! Of tying
the:score. Lipsit' attempt to stretch q
three base hftsin a home runrin the
seventh Is all that prevented tie
game. - ..~E..1~
Wulmar's runs came in the second,
fourth; fifth and ninth innings and
were the result of punched hits and
errors, with Ntf1liapns showing some

and Tucker scoring three runs apiece.
