LE TONG HELD FOR WHITE SLAVERY New London Chinaman and 19 Year Old Girl Arrested in New York. Le Toi 36 years old, who con- was grrested at the same time. The arrest of Le Tong and the Carson girl took place at the One Hundred and Twenty-fifth street sta- tion of the New York Central station soon after their arrival there. They were both locked up in the Third Branch Detective bureau. The Carson girl told the detectives that she was a companion of Mrs. James Loomis, a wealthy woman. Officer Gaffney Caused Arrest. It was Patrolman James D. Gaffney of New London who caused the ar- rest of the young Chinese restaurant proprietor, Le Tong, and the girl, Tong being charged with a violation of the Mann white slave act. Officer Gaffney noticed the pair at the Union station in New London on Tuesday afternoon. They were not fogether at the time, but the man- ner in which the Chinese watcheq the irl and kept close to her aroused the officer’s suspicions. Inquiry at the ticket office disclosed the fact that the man had purchased two tickets to New York. The girl, whose iden- tity is unknown to Patrolman Gaffney, sat in the waiting room. Her com- panion stood a few feet away, with his_eyes riveted upon her. The officer was fully satisfled that they planned to take the 3.57 n, which, however, was 30 minutes late. Gaffney communicated his_suspicions to Captain Haven, who authorized him to continue ' the investigation. When_the train pulled in, the officer saw the Chinaman speak to the girl as the pair got on board. They oc- cupied the same seat for an instant long enough however, for the girl to have been handed her ticket, and then her companion took another seat nearby. A _telegram to New York police headquarters did the rest. When the train reached One Hundred and Twen- ty-fAfth street, detectives boarded it and kept watch on the pair, arrest- ing them in the Grand Ceniral sta- tion. Officer Gaffney received word from New York that Tong haa $600 with him. He has been connected with the management of the Chinese restaurant at the corner of Green and Golden streets and is sald to be one of the owners. Who the girl is the police are not certain.

The so- ELLIOTT REVIEWS CAUSES OF FREIGHT EMBARGOES Heavy Buying of Coal Last Fall Start- ed All the Trouble. A communication signed by Presi- dent Howard Elliott of the New Haven Toad has been sent out to shippers, consignees and trade organizations in circular form asking for co-operation in removing all _embargoes on ship- ments into New England and in avoid- furtber patrons of the road should re- ceive a portation of the best quality. This cannot be given under embargoes, says President Elliott. Under authority of the embargo com- mittee of the eastern freight accumu- lation conference, the company has al- ready lifted many of the eml The date upon which all embargoes can be released depends upon the co- operation the company receives from its patrons.” Shippers and consignes can increase the amount of transpo: '.-.Lt:on the New Haven road can fur- nigh. During tke mon'ths of November and December, 1915, the average number of cars in position for unloading each day was from 10,000 to 11,000. The a; erage daily unloading was 5,600. Dui ing March and April, this year, no withstanding an increase in the aver- age number of cars in position for unloading each day, up to 12,000 and 13,000, the average daily unloading was| only 4,200 to 4,300. ‘While the capacity of the New Ha- ven has been proved- sufficient for an average day's delivery of 5500 cars, | the average daily unloading for severai months has been considerably less. Ind ‘Commerce Commissioner E. B, Clark, chairman of the embargo committee, recently stated that capacity of the road had been decreased §0 per cent. by reason of slow unload- ng. Last fall, when shipments of coal were ordered forward far in excess of consignees' ability to unload, these cars were stored on tracks which should have been kept for receiving, classifying and forwarding trains, thus making it more difficult to move freight of greater importance. Consequently patrons found certain shipments that they desired were being delayed. To reduce the number of cars on the road, embargoes had to be resorted to. “Shippers at the same time, fearing a possible shortage and desiring to pro- tect their supplies of raw material, ordered a considerable number of cars of a commodity on the theory that by 50 doing they would be assured of re- ceiving part. In order to meet this serious situa- tion, and to increase ‘the number of cars piaced so more rapid unloading would be possible, the company put into service additional crews, new heavy locomotives purchased and en- gines leased from other lines. The cost of transportation increased enor- mously, as well as the hire of -equip- ment—over $1,300,000 for this item alone for the six months ending April 30. The company suffered a financial 1oss, the increases in revenue being oft- set by much greater increases in ex- penses. The remedy of the present situation is continuous co-operation of the rail- way and the shipper to the extent that the maximum use may be made of each car and each track. This may be brought about by promptness in load- ing and unloading, ‘together with the maintenance of an average, regular rate of ehipment, equal to the ability to unload. ~Such methods will enablo the company to furnish the maximum service with the present facilities. The road also will be able to protect better fts timetable and give such preference as is necessary for any particular business. Sugg ns. The company offers the following suggestions in order that better results may be obtained, embargoes lifted and the service restored to a more satis- factory condition: 1—Ship at en average rate, only as rapidly as unloading is assured. 2—1If there is any failure on the part of the railway representatives to ad- vise you promptly of the receipt and D! nt of your freight, or to co- operate with you, bring this to the at- tention of the officers of e company. $—Help avold accumulations in the freight houses. and unload every lllr'hfllmbll!—'.h. day it is placed, if sible. $—Endeavor to get all cars on any car pos- a1ot and main tracks required for important and fast trains. 6—Get in your ly of coal for during the season of ‘was the over quantities last fall that us congestion during the past L E2g affiagifi ‘Mr. Ely's best man was Henry Page of Virginia and New York, and the A Phi Kappa Sigma Hold Last Meet- ing of Year—Iinstalling Organ—Per- on | calluses, warts and “Gets-It" is sold e itable and missionary lines j | complished.
