DANZIG Prussia, September 12.-lt
transpires that during the recent imperial
army maneuvers E. G. Claasen, Ger
ma. American. who belongs in the United
States, was arrested on suspicion OF be-
ing a spy. Claasen satisfied the authori-
ties of his innocence and subsequently
was released.
Claasen came here to visit his old home
and improved the opportunity to witness
the operations. His many questions re-
garding the movements of the combatants
excited the suspicion of the military au-
thortties and although the visitor ex-
hibited letter of credit and gave first
class references in Elbing, the officers
refused 10 telephone to that city for in
formation, but detained Claasen and sum-
moned military police officials from Dan
zig. The latter examined the prisoner.
and, reaching the conclusion that he was
harmless observer, ordered his release.

birds of Iowa, which are rapidly be-
ing decimated by hunters, the Audu'
bon society and the conservation com.
mittee Of the State Federation OF
Women's clubs win conduct a cam.
paign OF education and circulated pet
itions in the various counties OF

cies that the people Of Iowa will de
clare their views on conservation OF
the game birds SO emphatically that
the lawmakers will be compelled to
act. 1t is pointed out by those who
are back Of the movement that un.
less something is done the game
birds in this state will soon be en-.
tirely extinct.
