TOLEDO, Ohio. Sept. !2.-Sccret Ser
vice agents tonight visited the home
of Professor Scott Nearing and confs-
Gated several baskets full Of letters and
papers. The same agents visited the
headquarters of the local branch Of the
I. W. w. and took a large amount OF
letters and ether papers. No arrests
in either case were made.

in the East, where he is conducting a
course Of lectures. The confscated pa
pers from both Professor Nearings
home and those Of the /. W. ". head
quarters were taken &c the Office OF
the United States marshal and exam
iaed. Officials were not ready to say
that the papers contained any infor-
nation on which indictments might be
returned.
Nearing's Papers Taken
They took all papers of Professor
Nearing which have been used in his
lectures here in the Peoples Church, a

rapers taken in the rooms of the |. W.
". there were found many on which
the government would proceed against
some OF the officials. The officials az
this place were forced 10 break in a
door, as none OF the local members OF
the |. W. W. were there when they
called. Three OF the members were IN
the rooms when they saw the govern
,nent officials ransacking their desks
/ They were not molested.

the world and to restore mankind to
the rule of reason rather than of

resources, but will also, as urged by
the Holy Father and so we'll stated
by the President himself, place bounds
upon the ambition of the great powers,
restore liberty to the small nations of
the earth, and make America the lead

vance freedom and progress among
mankind.
