VICE RUN BY" TRUST
G. J. Kneeland Gives Secrets of
White Slave Traffic.

ness Is Specialized.
New York. Commercialization of
vice in New York city is described in
the first four studies of the social evil
to be published by the New York bu
reau of social hygiene. The book, pub
lished by the Century company, is en-
. titled "Commercialized Prostitution In
New York City" and is written by
George J. Kneeland. the chief investi
gator of the bureau, who was also the
chief of the workers under the Chi
cago, vice commission.
The report, which is introduced by
a foreword by John D. Rockefeller.
Jr., says 15,000 women of the under
world ply their trade in one borough
of New York alone. It scores the low
dance hall as a chief cause of vice.
Poverty is given a secondary place as
a cause. Mr. Kneeland hoids that of
tener women are victims In their Ig
norance of the agents of commercial-
. ized vice.
J'Jt is idle," he says, "to explain
--away the phenomena on the ground
that they are the results of the inevit
able weakness of human nature; hu
man weakness would demand far few
er and less horrible sacrifles.
:Most of the wreckage and the
worse of it is due to persistent cun
ning and unprincipled exploitations;
to the banding together in famous en
terprises of madame, procurer, brothel
.keeper and liquor vender to carry on
deliberately a cold blooded traffic for
r their joint profit, a traffic but it add-
ed, from which the girl involved pro-
cures at the most, with few excep
tions, her bare subsistence, and that
only so long as she has a trade
value."
"Prostitution has become a busi
ness," Mr. Kneeland writes, "the pro
moters of which continually scan the
field for a location favorable to their
operations, and the field is the entire

Steamship Agents Blame Decrease of
30 Per Cent. Chiefly on the ,
' Recent Floods.
New York. Up to May 8 the first
cabin passenger traffic between this
port and Europe was 357 ahead, of the
same period in 1912 west-bound and
'138 bookings ahead east-bound. . The
. second-cabin passenger traffic showed
an increase of 15,000 west-bound and
2,434 east-bound from Jan. 1 to May 8
over last year.
Traffic east-bound from now on will
he about 30 per cent, below last year,
according to the steamship agents.
I This, they say, is chiefly due to the
number of cancellations of bookings
made in January and February by
persons who were sufferers by the
floods in the middle west and by the
tornado In the Mississippi valley. -
Generally the year of the presiden
tial election is a poor one for foreign
travel, but 1912 was a very good year.
Cancellations have been made in
:the last few days not only on the older
Oriental Traveling Courtesies. ;

civilized world. No legitimate enter
prise is more shrewdly managed from
this point of view; no variety of trade
adjusts itself more promptly to condi
tions, transferring its activities from
one place to another as opportunities
contract here and expand, there. -
"While keepers of houses are also
procuers, there is a group of men who
devote themselves singly to this work.
These are the typical 'white slavers,
whose trade depends entirely upon the
existence of houses of prostitution.
The cadet has not yet developed into
a professional procuer or keeper of
a house. He enters the business when
he either ruins a young , girl for his
future profit or becomes the lover and
protector of a prostitute already in the
business. '
"The women who run houses have,
as a rule, risen from the ranks. They
were once street walkers or parlor
house -inmates, who possess unusual
business talents. They have learned
the scerets of the trade; they know
the kind of Inmates to get and where
to get them.
"For several years thirty $1 houses
of prostitution In the tenderloin have
been operated as a 'combine' under the
direct control of 15 or more men. The
Individuals in question have been in
business for many years in New York
city as well as in other cities, both In
this country and abroad. They: buy
and sell shares In these houses among
themselves, and it is seldom that an
outsider, unless he be a relative, can
break into the circle and share in the
profits.
"The value of the shares depends
upon the ability of the owners to
maintain . conditions in which the
houses, being unmolested, are per
mitted to make large profits.
"If a composite photograph could be
made of typical owners of vice resorts
it would show a large, well fed man
about 40 years of age and 5 feet 8
inches in height His clothes are the
latest cut, loud in design, and careful
ly pressed. A heavy watch chain
adorns his 'waistcoat, a large diamond
sparkles in flashy necktie, and his fat,
chubby fingers are encircled -with gold
and diamond rings.

look to the middle' west and the -west
for the . bullc of their summ er, tourist

the demand for cabin accommodation
and the cancellations came, as a sur
prise to them. . A few of the more op
timistic agents', hope that there will
be a boom in the European tourist
traffic later on, but . it will have to
come soon to have any effect on the
trade. , -.' ... ' ' . ' ; . ...

Battle Ground, Ind. Guy Fisher, a
farmer boy living near Battle Ground,
Ind.. stumbled on to a strange find a
few . days ago near the mouth of
the Tippecanoe river that may be of
considerable historic interest Many
small mounds of earth are to be seen
In the neighborhood which is named
for the battle of Tippecanoe between
Gen. Harrison and Tecumseh's war
riors. Some of these have been open
ed ' from . time to time, and ' relics of
the red men have been found in them,
hut the latest is considered one of the
most important yet unearthed in that
district. ; ; :
Recent high "water from the Tippe-.
canoe and. Wabash - rivers and "Wild
Cat creek inundated the entire coun
tryside. Young Fisher was going
over the territory contiguous to the
joining of the Tippecanoe and Wa
bash rivers after the water had re
ceded and found one of the larger of
the mounds washed out.Uncoyerel
by the "waters but undisturbed were"
five skeletons. The center one of the
quintet was larger than the others,
and upon It rested a heavy , cross,
known to antiquarians as the "Jesuit
double cross.".
The young man, after making these
discoveries, dug lower Into the f pot
and found a stone pipe, several hand
fuls , of arrow and spear heads of
stone, a curious copper ornament, two
metal buttons and several other small
stone articles, both Implements of
peace nd war.
It is supposed ' by some that the
larger of the five men for all the
skeletons have been determined as
those of males was a Jesuit mission
ary, while the others are supposed to
have been Indians.
History tells of the burial of De La
Salle, the French explorer who was
in the Northwest territory in the
year 1680, In the Mississippi river,
after he had been disappointed in his
venture of the. Griffin, which he dis
patched from the head of Lake Huron.
The boat never returned from its voy
age to Niagara and the Frenchman
started on the long trip of 1,500 miles
to Canada, first going down the Mis
sissippi for supplies in two canoes
with an Indian hunter and four
French companions.. It is supposed
that the skeletons found are' those of
men who either were In De La Salle's
party or who. met the Jesuit mission
ary, Marquette, who . later went
through the section.
It is known that Marquette was
through that part of the country and
some students are of the opinion that
the skelentos are those of four fol
lowers of the Marquette party and one
of the Jesuit's group of missionaries.
Some have asserted the larger body
is that of an Indian and not a white
man, that he was the chief of a tribe
and had been converted to the Chris
tian religion by the Marquette party.
The position, of the body and its con
dition seem to Indicate this, accord
ing to those holding the; latter view
of the case.

TO FIGHT THE TRUST
PRESIDENT WILL ASK NEW LEG
ISLATION . TO STRENGTHEN
SHERMAN LAW.
'REYNOLDS WILL GET BUSY
Department of Justice Has Investiga
tors at Work. Securing Evidence to
Be Used in Many Cases To Force
. Competitive Conditions.
By GEORGE CLINTON.
Washington. It has ' been made
plainly apparent that President Wil
son and the Democratic ' leaders In
Congress think that if this country'c
manufacturers and producers 'would
change their methods of work they
would have no reason to fear ap
proaching tariff changes. The Presi
dent has expressed himself as believ
ing that because high protection has
afforded such good shelter for Ameri
can concerns they have neglected
opportunities to conduct ' their busi
ness In a way which would make high
protedrirn' ' unnecessary y and which
would enable them to sell things at
a lower price and ' to earn as much
dividend money as they earn today.
This is the expressed Democratic
vivw. -
" It was in connection with his words
on pernicious lobbying that the Pres
ident allowed his -views on business
methods to become known. He thinks
app&rantly that this country can com
pete with the world and "with itself,"
continue to pay high wages and con
tinue to -make money even if certain
and sundry articles are put upon the
free . list.
For New Trust Legislation.
When V-e tariff bill is. passed and
signed, taking fcr granted that the
law will read nearly as the bill reads
at present American competition will
have an opportunity to show what it
can do when brought Into the contest
against products which are manufac
tured or grown in other countries.
Attorney General McReynolds, who
under ' Theodore Roosevelt and Will
iam H. Taft had considerable experi
ence as a government investigating
and prosecuting officer, is still on tho
trusts' trail, and when overtaken each
trust is to be led to court, in which
a good many of them already have
had experience. When the Sherman
aw is amended In accordance with
Mr. Wilson's view of " what proper
changes should be, the Attorney Gen
eral probably will have to " go into
court or send others into court for
him, to present cases under new con
ditions. Mr. Wilson's thought, as he
has expressed it 3 veral times, is that
every combination which is found to
be in restraint at trade can be dis
solved into integral parts and each
part forced to compete with every
other part for business, and that each
part can do it without bringing hard-
ships, to holders of stock or to the
interests of the business community
generally. - - .
Want. Actual Dissolution.
It is the intention of the Democ
racy, so the party men say, to make
the dissolution of all combinations in
restraint of trade actual - instead of
merely apparent There are Demo
cratic leaders 'willing, to say that the
great corporations . which seemingly
have been split up can be actually
split up, and that they can be made
to compete, to sell their goods at a
lower price and yet continue to make
money and; pay good dividends. To
accomplish these things is the Job
which the Democratic party In Con
gress and in the White. House has
ahead of it after the tariff and cur
rency, are out of the way.
As things are now. the Attorney
General is busy. He has investigators
at work in the New England railroad
field to get all the facts not yet
brought to light concerning the , trans
portation monopoly there - said to
exist. In Oregon and Washington
representatives of the Attorney Gen
eral's department are looking into
telephone matters with a view to de
termining if a trust contrary to law
is there exploiting itself.
Policy of Old Line Republicans,
Washington politicians of all parties
still continue to be actively interested
in the outcome of the meeting of the
Republican national committee- which
will be called by Chairman Hilles at
any time that he chooses within sixty
days after the adjournment of con
gress, whenever that may W - -
Republicans of the' progressive and
conservative factions are still talking
about what was done when the exec
utive committee of the national com
mittee of the party met here and what
is to be done in the future, but it is
plainly evident from "what they say
that the strongest belief of all of them
is that the regeneration of the Repub
lican party will not come" from' a con
vention; but from disaster which the
Republicans think and say is to be
brought about by a Democratic tariff
and a Democratic currency system..;
It is thev old line Republicans who
are the more insistent that the party,
Instead of holding a convention with
the" hope of . getting the two factions
together, should "wait on ' the other
party's follies for the chance of restor
ation to power." The Republicans
known as Btandpatter3 apparently do
not want 'the national committee ' to
call a convention They seem to be
convinced that only a few reforms in
party methods are necessary and that
there is no tieed of giving heed to
progressive-Republican demands for
changes looking to the initiative and
referendum, suffrage, presidential pri
maries or any ; of the ether . thlnjjs
which progresslvism has demanded
ftor years and oa the denial of which
by the last Republican convention
some millions of Republicans split
away and formed the Progressive par
ty, v:-;: ' -
. No Certainty of a 'Convention.
There seems , to have been a very
wide misunderstanding about what
was done by the executive committee
of the Republican national committee
when it met in Washington. This mis
understanding, has grown with the
days since the committee departed, for
certain words of the leading commit
teemen were misinterpreted at the
start and it was taken for granted that
the national committee would be cer-"
tain to caira convention. The fact
Is that all that was done by the execu
tive committee in Washington was to
call a meeting of the national commit
tee end to ask it to decide certain
questions. "
It Is known definitely that the ma
jority of the members of the national
committee do nolf want to call a con
vention and that all they want to do
Is to "change on their own authority
the apportionment of southern repre
sentation in Republican conventions,
to declare for the principle of the pres
idential primaries and ' then - to ad
journ. "
Progressives Are Content.
The Progressives in Washington say
that they are entirely content with the
action of the Republican party's execu
tive committee. By Progressives are
meant the members of the new party
and not the progressive-Republicans.
The nevr party men say that the freely
expressed belief of old line Repub
licans that' the results of Democratic
law making alone will be sufficient to
return the old party to power is in
itself enough to hold the Progressives
together as a ' party . and to . further
alienate from the old party the affec
tions of progressive-Republicans.
The Progressives, and the progressive-Republicans,
too, for that matter,
6ay that unless the Republican party
declares for the advanced policies for
which ' progressivism. both with the
small p and a capital P has stood, the
Progressive party will have many ad
ditional members drawn from the
ranks of progressive Republicanism.
immediately after it is made plain that
the old line Republicans will not stand
for the platform of advanced princi
ples. The old liners, however, say
that the Democrats are bound to fail
and that hard times will put the old
Republican party on its feet. The
Democrats see no failure and are con
tent and perhaps happy as they view
the troubles of their opponents.
Senate Is Changing.-
Hereafter members of the congres
sional committees of the three parties
that is provided the : Progressive
party shall decide that a congressional
committee is necessary will have the
additional duty of directing the cam
paign for the election of United States
senators... The coming change in the
method of the election of senators ia
affecting the proceedings in the up
per house. Realizing that they are
now directly responsible to the peo
ple rather than to the legislatures,
some -of the senators are showing si
change of manner and method.
For years numerously, signed peti
tions praying for or against legisla
tion have been received daily by the
senators of the United States. : These
petitions - have been duly and -with
proper formality presented to the sen
ate, but only rarely has there been a
word said at presentation time con
cerning the nature of the petition or
the standing of the persons or organ
izations who had giv.en it their sig
natures.' Today some of the senators
are presenting these petitions with
spoken words enough to let the peo
ple back home who ' are ; Interested
know that their upper , house repre
sentative is on duty and will give
their cause ajl proper consideration,
and ."support If It seems best."
New Methods For Old Timers.
Some of the old time senators
seeking re-election will have to learn
new lessons in politics, or else must
restudy those which , they learned
when they were 'members of the low
er house or of the home states' legis
latures. It is one thing to prepare
for a campaign before a legislature,
and It is another thing to prepare for
one in which some hundreds of thou
sands of ' voters will ; have a direct
shot at the target. Time after. tim
th direct election of senators pro
position . was ,voted down in the sen
ate of the United States. It finally
was given to the states to decide by
the votes of upper house men who
stammered with reluctance when
they voted "aye." The dreaded: thing
Is to come and "hereafter the honor
ables and more or less ancients not
to put It; the other: way. will be com
pelled to make a plain case before the
people. ; - ,
Washington wants to know what
effect the direct election of senators
Is going to have on the rules and the
general nature of the proceedings in
the upper house. Prior to the time
that direct election was assured
there were occasional threats : that
the rules of t'ae ' upper . house would
be changed I s order that debate
Wight be shut off and the passage of
legislation expedited. Former ' Sena
tor. Aldrich" once made a , threat to
this effect or" rather ."'.suggested a
threat ': . ': - . ..
Some of Ihe senators today fear that
the result cf direct elections is to be
the making of a second .house tint of
the senate. Other senators say that
this fear, is groundless because the
"deliberative character" of the senate
is the thing which' makes for proper
consideration of - legislation passed
hurriedly by the representatives, and
that the country realizes the necessity
of adequate discussion of all bills be
fore their final adoption.
