ACT IS UPHELD
TRAFFIC IX W03EEX DKCIARED
SUBJECT FOR REGUIATIOX.
Supreme Court Rules Wlilte Slavery
May Be Curbed Same as Ship
ping of Diseased Cattle.
. WASHINGTON. Feb. 24. On the
theory that traffic m women in inter
state commerce may be regulated by
legislation as well as the traffic In
drugs, goods or cattle, .the Supreme
Court of the United States upheld to
day the validity of the Federal white
slave traffic act of 1910. It had been
contended this question of morality
was reserved for action by the states.
Justice McKenna delivered the court's
opinion.
"Our dual form of government has
Its perplexities." said he, "state and
Nation having different spherea of Ju
risdiction, but it must be kept in mind
that we are one people and that the
powers reserved to the states and those
conferred on the Nation are adopted to
be exercised, whether independently or
concurrently, to promote the general
welfare, material and moral. This Is
the effect of the decisions and surely,
if the facility of Interstate transporta
tion can be taken away from the de
moralization of lotteries, the debase
ment of obscene literature,, the conta
gion of diseased cattle or persons, the
Impurity of food and drugs, the like
facility can be taken away from the
systematic debauchery of women and,
more Insistently, of girls."
The Supreme Court had several cases
before it in which the constitutionality
of the act was attacked, but made its
decision on the case of Effle Hoke, of
Beaumont, Tex., and Basile Economldes,
a New Orleans saloonkeeper, sentenced
to six years each for illegal transporta
tion of women from New Orleans to
Beaumont. The conviction was af
firmed. Other convictions affirmed
were Louis Athanasaw and Mitchell
Sampson, operating the Imperial Thea
ter at Tampa. Fla., and Emma Harris,
Delia Harris and Bessie Green, of Cin
cinnati. All are under varying sen
tenced for violation of the law.
The Jack Josnson case did not figure
In the decision, as It previously had
been settled.

DENVER. Colo., Feb. 24. Harold F.
Henwood will not be tried on the charge

Louis balloonist. In the barroom of a
Denver Hotel on the night of May 24,
1911. Judge Charles C. Butler today
dismissed the Von Phul charge, on the
ground that three terms of court had
elapsed since the filing of the informa
tion, during which the defendant had
not been brought to trial.
John T. Bottom, attorney for Hen
wood, immediately moved to dismiss the
rase in which Henwood is charged with
killing George E. Copeland.

Offense With Wblcli Suffragette Is
Charged Is Punishable With
Penal Servitude for'Term of
Fourteen Tears.
LONDON, Feb. 24. Mrs. Emmaline
Pankhurst was arrested today in con
nection with the destruction of the
country residence of David Lloyd
George by a bomb explosion last week.
The warrant for Mrs. Pankhurst's
arrest was issued today by a Police
Magistrate at Epsom near Lloyd
George's country house. It charges the
suffragist leader with "incitement to
commit damage." Mrs. Pankhurst is to
be arraigned at Epsom tomorrow.
Cheers Great Announcement.
The announcement of her arrest was
made at a big suffragist meeting In
London today and was received with
cheers.
Under the malicious damage act, the
offense with which Mrs. Pankhurst is
charged is punishable with penal
servitude for a term of 14 years. i
Mrs. Lillian Lenton, who was detained
for trial on Thursday for setting fire
to buildiners in the Kew Botanical
Ga-rdens, was released today- on the
ground or ill health. She started a
hunger strike on entering the House of
Detention and had not eaten anything
since that day.
Submission Cause Anger.
Public feelinar Is high against the sur
render on the part of the authorities
every time a suffragette goes on a
hunger strike. Unless the government
announces in the King's speech Its de
termination to introduce legislation to
cope with the subject, the opposition
officially will move an amendment to
the address.

of cars upon request of shippers, by
directing the dismissal of the railway's
suit In the Federal Courts of that
state.
The court declined to annul the
law as being a regulation of inter
state commerce, but did not find !t
necessary to decide the validity of the
law from all attacks because of the
showing made In the "bill" Institut
ing the suit.
