Ames, March 3.-Fire in the base
ment of the central college building
when it was crowded with students at
classes, caused much excitement for a
time, but all marched out in order and
no one was injured. The alarm was
given by ringing the victory bell, .
which usually is rung only on celebra-
ton of athletic victories. Captain
Kraft of the track took charge of the
situation and succeeded in maintaining
good order.

Des Moines, March 9.--Because of
the announcements made in Washing
ton by Congressman Mckinley, the
millionaire street car magnate, that he
has succeeded in inducing President
Taft to take a hand in the Iowa cam
paign previous to the primary election.
and later to approve the plan of ADAM
doning to the democrats congressional
districts that do not nominate Cannon
men for congress, there have already
been several informal conferences
among the Iowa republicans to see
what should be done in defense. 1t is
entirely possible that some sort of an
informal conference will be held soon
to consider what attitude to take.
ave have been getting along very
nicely in the campaign thus far SAID
one of the most progressive and yet
conservative of the republicans yester-
day. 1--WE have not had much of a
campaign On state matters and else
where it is largely personal. In every
congressional district the campaign is
being conducted with a view to electing
the men afterwards at the general cleo
ton. eve do not need any advice nor
money from Illinois or Washington. OF
COURSES we understand this man Mckln-
ley is very sore because he failed to
get what he wanted in Des Moines and
that he is naturally resentful because
he failed to make small fortune out
of specializing in a Des Mones fran
chise, but that should be no reason
why all Iowa is to be plunged into
hot political campaign which will have
little effect other than to lessen the
chance of republican success in NO
vember But if Congressman Mckin-
ley, assisted by the small coterie OF dis
gruntled politicians which has been
going to Washington to tell the presl-
dent what bad men the Iowa republi-
cans are, succeeds in dragging the ad-
ministration and the Cannon-Aldrich
organization, and alletheir methods, in
TO the Iowa campaign there is going to
be such a storm as was never seen be-

There has been a sudden revival of

NARRATIVES in STAMPEDE TO
GET.THE EAR OF THE COURT
AT COUNCIL BLUFFS.
FEDERAL OFFICIALS ON HAND
TO AID IN CONDUCTING TRIALS
Postoffice Employe From South Bend,
Ind, Present to Give Evidence
Against HERMAN, Brown and Moore
Ono Of South Bend Branch Of Gang
Now Doing Time-other Iowa News.

Special to Times-Republican.
Council Bluffs, March 9.-It is quietly
intimated that since the publication of
the story that Mabray and others of
his alleged associates are to plead gull
ty to the charges in United States dis
trict court, of swindling by means of
fake horse races, fake wrestling
matches, etc.. others of the accused
have been failing over themselves to
get the ear of the court in a tentative
way with the view of pleading guilty.
An official of the federal government
is authority for this statement. Post
office Inspector Swenson, Ranger and
Alnaon, Of Council Bluffs, st. Louis and
Sioux City, are here assisting in pre-
pairing for trial.
An interesting parsonage here ready
to go upon the witness stand for the
side Of the government in these cases,
is J. H. Award OF South Bend, Ind, a
box clerk in the postoffice of that city.
His testimony will have special refer
ence to the operations of branch
"store" which, it is claimed, was OPP
Grated in South Bend in the spring OF
1908 by r. B. HERMAN, Frank w.
Brown and Ed C.. Moore, after the trio
had separated from Mabray in New
Orleans.
Awards testimony will show, says
one of the postoffice inspectors who
was interviewed by your correspond
ent, that Herman, Brown and Moore
had letter box at South Bend, and
that they dispatched and received a
large amount of mail. The trio had
been associated with Mabray, it is
claimed, in swindles pulled off in the
southern metropolis. Their operations
there included some of the heaviest
deals in the history of the syndicate,
one of their victims being J. E. Cav
anaugh, who lost $37, 900, he says.
Some Of Their Victims.
The principal affair charged to the
account Of Herman, Brown and
Moore and their association in the
South Bend "store," was that of j. G
Springborn Of Cleveland, o., who is al
legged to have been swindled out Of
$4,000 on a fake wrestling match soon
after the South Bend store" was
opened for business.
The career of the South Bend "store"
was brief. The Springborn swindle
was promptly reported to the author
tiles and William Fleming, alleged to
have been the steerer in the affair was
arrested, tried and convicted. He will
be unable to respond to the indictment
against him in the federal court here
because he is filling a prior engage
nent in the Indiana state peniteptiary.
Herman. Brown and Moore are in
tSan Francisco, where they have been
for months fighting removal to this
city. The fact that neither they nor
Fleming will be present at the Coun-
Gil Bluffs trial now will rob Awards
story of some of it's interest, but he will
be used to show the use of the mails
in the operations OF the gang.

Waterloo, March 9.-"Pat," the large

ton one day about seven years ago and
he has been there ever since. Nobody
knows where he came from and nobody
ever claimed him.
He knows every restaurant and ev-
cry hotel in town. Every morning he
starts out and visits those places. The
first restaurant that he goes to puts
something for him to eat in paper
sack and gives it to him. With this
sack in his mouth he will visit all the
others In turn and by the time he has
made the rounds the sack is full. When
the sack is full he returns to the sta
ton and hunts up the officer, Charles
Dahl, who is always on duty there at
that time in the morning. He knows
that the officer will take out enough
for one meal and give it to him. also
that he will save the rest for him and
give it to him later in the day. He
has learned that his sackful will last
him all day. Nobody but the officer
named can get the sack from him. If
the officer is not there just at that time
he will wait until he comes.
