UNPRECEDENTED Never was known such a Sale in Astoria before GOOD GOODS HAVE SIMPLY BEEN GIVEN AWAY Great Sale for 4 Days Positively Ending Saturday, March 3 1st C. H. COOPER'S GREAT UNPARALLED SALE DASTARDLY TRADE Harris Wanted Girls For Chinese. Rich WOULD SHIP THEM TO CHINA Suspected Procurer Offered Girls Dance Hall Employment, Simply as Pre text to Kidnap Them for Shipment to Orient. That linile Harris, the man arrested in Salem Sunday night, while persuad ing girls to accept an offer to come to this city for immoral purposes, is the agent for a concern that is shipping American gifts to China and Japan and scllinc them into lives of slaverv. is the assertion of the police. Members of Ihe Salem police force who mre-ted liar lis after they had heard him urging a gill tu accept hi- offer and go to t hi city as a dance hall habitue, assert that a tar darker motive was behind tils pui-pose. They think that the Astoria storv ii'u a concoction, the eaicr to act '.'iris to consent. Ihe real purpo-c was to ship tJiein across the seas. As toria police officers are inclined to con cur in the same views. Harris is not known here and he ha never had dealings with the A-toria police, nt least under that name, though from the description given of the man, it is believed he was once a violin player in one of the local dance halls. Harris claimed in Salem to tie an agent for the Bijou dance hall in this city, but neither the proprietor of this or any other will acknowledge any con nection with tin- man. His dealings with them cannot be traced. If Harris is the mnn who played in the dance hall, he is also the man who shipped a number of girls to Japan sev eral years ago. The girls were shipped to Tokio and there sold into slavery. The man who procured them in the United Slates was a Polish Jew, answer ing description of Harris. This former escapade strengthens the belief that he had the same object in view now. Procurer Himself Reveals Plan.' Harris told a man with whom he talked Sunday, that ho was after girls to ship to China and the Orient. The plan he outlined was to bring girls to Portland and place them aboard a ves sel soon to sail for the Orient, under the deception that they were bound for Astoria. After being once aboard, how ever, the girls were to be imprisoned and prevented from escaping or making their condition known to the ship's offi cers till too late. AVhite girls are much sought after for the harems of wealthy Chinese, and for some of them fabulous prices are paid. The extraortlinnrv inducements are sup posed to have caused Harris to embark in the dastardlv trade. In San Fmncisco some years ago, a similar gang was found to be working to the same end. Harris registered at the Willamette Hotel in Salem Saturday as Ben Harris, of Portland. He stayed all night and We are goiug to continue this left Sunday morning. Later he return ed and asked for the same room, this time registering as Ii. Harris, of Port land. As an e.eu-e, he said that he had ini-scd his train and would remain an other day. However, it is said, none of tht Port land police or detectives remember ever having run across the man. and he is thought to have registered from Port land to throw suspicion off hia move ments. Harris is a young man of medium stature, dark curly hair and apparently a Polish Jew. He savs he has been in this city about two weeks, representing the Bijou dancing hall during that time.
