DIES MONIES, Ia, July 1.--(Special Tele-
eram.)-United States officers today placed
aboard train and started back to Russia
Miss Krawsa. a girl said to have been i'm
ported to this country for immoral pur-
poses, and decided that Adam Simons
should be tried for white slavery" in be-
ing concerned in the importation.
A license had been procured for the mar
riage of the girl with Miller, bartender
employed by Simons, but the officers de-
clare there was in fact no marriage and
1t was only ruse to head off the prose
cutions.
Many Saloons Close.
1t Is estimated that at least 50 per cent
of the saloons in the cities OF the state
closed today under operation of the mulct
law. All saloons in Ottumwa and Marshall
town closed and twenty-five closed in Cedar
Rapids and a number in Waterloo The
situation as left in Des Moines owing TO
a muddle in granting the licenses, leaves
II possible that all the saloons here win yet
have trouble.
