JOHN URBAN EXPECTED pAUoH
TER FROM CHICAGO AND MET
pAzEp STRANGER.
POLICE WIRED MISS URBAN
WAS IN TROUBLE THERE
Police Matron Takes Charge OF IN
known Girl Who Had Address Of Ur.
loo Miss States Working Companion,
Not She, 10 in Difficulty.

Waterloo, May li.-Expecting to re-
ceive his daughter. whom he thought
had been in trouble in Chicago, John
Urban early this morning found at h!s
door stranger. young girl who had
every appearance OF being waif or
outcast. She said the police in the
big city had sent her to Waterloo with
Mr.. Urban's address, 1Oi Jaskson
street
Who the girl is and the train OF
events which brought her. penniless
and without friends. to this city con-
stitutes a tangled web OF mystery
which will require patience and time
to bring TO a lucid explanation The
police department was notified Of the
strange circumstance OF the girls
comins and she was placed in charge
of Mrs. Myrtle Barr, police patron.
Chicago Crossed Wires.
AS near as the story can he gath
cred at this time, Mr.. Urban received
a communication purporting to come
from the chief OF police at Chicago, in
forming him that his daughter was in
trouble there and IL he would forward
money she would be sent home, stating
it would require about $50. The ma
ture of the trouble was not stated.
Alarmed at the information the
father sent $50. by telegraph. to hasten
the release of his daughter. dis
patch came later saying that she was
on her way home. Evidently the other
CIR, was substituted but why and
what became of the $40 after carfare
was paid has not been ascertained.
A partial explanation is seen in a
letter received by the parents from
their daughter this morning. in which
she says: DOUBTLESS You have. heard
from the police here. Don't worry; It's
not me- but girl who worked in the
same house with me last summer
Girl Seems Dazed.
Little information could he extracted
from the girl who so Unexpectedly Is
thrust upon the authorities here TO
care for. Huddled IN q corner of the
big divan at headquarters she pre-
scented a pitable and woebesone APP
pearance. Very small and slight she
is not over II years of age. but has
the appearance of having been up
against hard living. She wore cheap
shabby black shoes and dark colored
cape a black poke bonnet was
pulled well over her face, and thin
veil helped to conceal her thin fea-
lures. However. she was clean and
neat, and but for the distressed look
might be called pretty.
In small piping voice scarcely
audible she told a mixed and rambling
story. She was sent to Chicago from
New York. she said as waif ana
never had home. She had worked in
a hotel in Chicago. She was sure an
aunt lived here. she said. and had told
the authorities in the big city that.
They gave her only the ticket to come
here and no money She did not know
about the $50 sent. The latter state
ment is borne out by the fact that she
had not a penny when she arrived
here
The chief Of police has started an
investiga ton which will trace the
whole affair if possible. In the mean
time Mrs. Barr will keep the girl in
charge awaiting developments.

KENYON ATTACKS NEAT PRICES.
Senator Seeks inquiry on United
States Control Plan.

Washington, May Ex-senator Ken
yon OF Iowa said yesterday that he viii
propose a congressional investigation
OF the decision by the war department
to dispose Of 0,O00. 900 pounds of sur
plus army meats In cooperation with
the Chicago packers so as to aVoid
lowering the price Of meat on the
American market
In conference with the packers the
war department; agreed to endeavor
first to sell the surplus canned meats
abroad and. failing in that. to place
the food on the American market
under the supervision of the packers
as to distribution. The packers frank
.ly asserted they desired to avoid
slump in prices.
Those people who can AFFORD TO eat
meat at ALL" said Senator Kenyon,
would like to eat more, and folks who
have been compelled to forego that
article Of diet by high prices would
like to taste meat once more. Congress
certainly should inquire which the war
department is aiding. the packers In
holding the prices up instead of aiding
the American consumer TO bring prices
down"
