to $4,000, with insurance OF about
half that amount. Tho fre which Is
Of unknown origin. started In straw
stack near the barns and outbuildings
and they being In tho direct path Of
the wind, 1t was evident from the start
that the two large barns. cribs. silo.
windmill, and other buildings. together
with the contents were doomed to de-
struction.
Besides the buildings burned. there
were four head Of horses. thirty hogs.
seventy small pigs. some calves, farm
machinery, 1900 bushels Of corn, a
large amount OF hay and straw and
much other property.
When 1t came to saving the house,
the fire department did excellent work.
The furniture was all removed for fear
their efforts would be In vain but they
succeeded well in fighting the fire away
and the home was saved. The house,
together with q couple Of summer
Kitchens and one corn crib were the
only buildings on the place saved. The
loss is estimated at SIC, 900 with insur-
ance Of less than half that amount

mated Because Of Opposition at
Home.

Special to Times-Republican.
Webster City, May 27.-The political
pot in the big Tenth congressional dis
trict is beginning to sizzle. Congress
man Frank p. Woods, who is just now
completing his second term. has not yet
announced his Intentions as to the
third term Close friends OF his say.
however that when he returns home to
Estherville upon the close of the special
session he will make due announcement
to the voters OF his Intentions to again
be a candidate.
Senator Joe Allen, Of Pocahontas, Is
looked upon by many as very likely
candidate. Senator Allen was in Web
ster City in attendance upon the an
nual session Of group two Of the Iowa
State Bankers Association. Approach
ed by a newspaper man Senator Allen
disclaimed being here on any political
mission. Asked directly whether he
would or would not be a candidate for
congress from the Tenth district, Sem
ator Allen said he had not yet made up
his mind But in any event." said he,
Il. would do Congressman Woods the
courtesy not to announce 1t until his
return to the state"
Announcement IL Expected.
There is every reason. however, to
believe that the big senator from Poca-
hontas IS casting serious eye over the
situation. o. H. Raleigh, of Estherville,
a former warm supporter and private
secretary to Congressman Conner and
later a warm supporter and private
secretary to Congressman Woods and
last winter an assistant clerk in the
Iowa senate, Is making quiet trip
over the Tenth district with his ear to
the ground. He always says a good
word for Senator ALLEN and indications
are that he Is playing the cole of a
John the Baptist, going before and pre-
pairing the people for the announce
ment in due time Of the candidacy Of
the big Pocafontas man.
Hammili Out Of IL.
OF course Paul Stfllman, OF Jefferson,
will also be in the race, he having
already announced his candidacy in his
paper. the Jefferson Bee. The name Of
Senator John Hammill, Of Britt. has
also been much mentioned. The last
issue Of the Britt Tribune, however,
rather puts Hammill out Of the run
ming by coming out Tor e. A. 11ori:;iS,
Of Emmetsburg, whom It says would
stand the equal OF any congressman in
Iowa"
The situation over the district As still
in rather chaotic condition and the
chances are that before the June pri-
tmaries roll around there will be men
out seeking the office whose names
have not yet been mentioned. Also 1t
Is possible that some of those now
spoken Of will have been dropped by
the wayside. Politicians over the dis
trict, however, are looking for the live
lest scrap ever pulled off in the dis
| ..rict. with the chances favoring . final
nomination.

Special to Times-Republican.
Mason City, May 27.-owing to the
sudden death of p. s. Maroosis there will
be quite a little more difficulty in set
Ting the Greek situation in this city. AS
president Of the Greek community Of
minneapolis Mr.. Maroosis stood very
highly among the Greeks not only Of
this city but all over the northwest
territory, for the Minneapolis church
is the only Greek church west of Chi
cago until one strikes the coast Many
Of the Greeks of this locality were
mem bers Of the community over which
Mr.. Maroosis presided.
Situation Strained.
The situation is terribly strained
here at the present time and the COM
missioner and his deputy departed
without finishing the work. The trou-
BILE is that there are at least three fac
lions here and all seem to be quite
evenly divided In strength. 1t Is prob
able that at, least 500 Greeks are en-
p1oyed in the city, Some weeks ago
a representative OF the Greeks from
the east came here and after looking
into the situation his report was that
system of grating was carried on.
He stated that the interpreters would
charge IS to get one Of their number
job; that he would hold it for some
time and then he would be dismissed
without any known reason. After he
had rested" for several days the in
terpreter would get him back at the
work but not until he was paid an
other IS. According to this report this
has been going on for some time.
These interpreters have quite q large
following and quite number Of the
Greeks are in sympathy with them.
Employer Not Involved.
Those who are employing large num-
bers of the Greeks as laborers say
that they know nothing about any such
graft as this and If it is carried on
they are ignorant Of it. It was this
situation that Mr.. 3Maroosis had lent
his time and ability to solve. Tonight
a large delegation. from the Greek
community together, with his brothers
William and John. arrived in this city.
There will be no postmortem. The
body was taken to the Great Western
depot and at 2 O'clock this morning
was started for Minneapolis. In the
death of P. S. Maroosis the Creeks
Of this country have lost one OF their
most influential and best men
