Nears Los Angeles.
MOTHER'S SEARCH IS CLEW
Daughter ot Rich San Diego Parents
Lured From Home Is Recognized
by Captain, Who Warns Her
and Sends Her Back.
SEATTLE, Oct. 6. (Special.) The
Btory of how a beautiful 19-year-old
Kirl. daughter of wealthy San Diego
parent, was rescued from the clutches
of a white slaver after she had been
persuaded to leave her home is recited
by officers of the steamship Governor,
of the Pacific Coast Steamship Com
pany, which arrived in Seattle today
Xrom California.
Credit for the safe return of the
younj- woman to her home in San Diego
Is given by the officers to Captain H. C.
Thomas, master of tiie Governor.
Mother Provides Clew.
A few minutes before the sailing the
frirl's mother, almost distracted with
apprehension, appeared at the dock and
sked that the ship be searched for the
girl, who, she said, had written a note
raying she was to go north on the
Governor.
Soon after the vessel left port Cap
tain Thomas, from the description fur
nished him. recognized the girl and is
sued instructions that she be taken to
his office.
There Captain Thomas closely ques
tioned the frirl as to her plans. He dis
covered that the runaway not only was
totally unaware ot the danger she
faced, but was determined to continue
with her companion, who, officers of
the vessel say, was a woman of a type
readily recognizable by anybody with
worldly experience.
Truth Shokine to Girl.
The girl told Captain Thomas the
woman had promised her remunerative
employment in San Krancieco.
It was only after Captain Thomas
had explained to her the real motive
of the woman with whom she was
traveling that tlie young girl was
shocked into listening to reason.
After the purpose of the woman was
made plain to the girl, her effects, with
her consent, were moved to another
stateroom, which was occupied by a
girl friend, who happened to be on the
Governor.
When the Governor arrived at Los
Angeles Captain Thomas, out of his
own money, bought a railway ticket
to San Diego and placed the girl in
charge of the steamship company's
agent, with instructions to see that
she boarded the first train out. He also
telegraphed to the girl's mother asking
her to meet the train.
Because the girl was of legal age the
woman was allowed to escape prosecution.
