heard OF the wealth Of Iowa, she told
friends. M 4 is
| Being possessed Of strong per-
sonality which built friends with
whomever she associated, she soon was
acquainted in Muscatine.. The first
Sunday here she attended the German
NJ. e. church and after the service
sought out the Rev. Kettlekamp. He
was to be her victim so she confided
in him that she wished to purchase
Iowa land.
Could he advise her concerning any
| bargains? she inquired. :
The Rev. Mr.. Kettlekamp introduced
her to a local real estate man who
w'hirled her over miles and miles of
Muscatine county land which ne
Offered for sale. She was q willing
customer and soon he has disposed Of
320-acre tract.
Needed Cash Temporarily.
At the close OF one day the deal was
contaminated. The only thing she
needed was few hundred dollars to
bind the transaction. But her money
was temporarily tied-up in Minnesota,
she informed the real estate agent.
There was one thing, that she could do
however, she said. That was borrow
the money from the Rev. Mr.. Kettle
kanlp. She did and few days later
was apprehended in Burlington
charged with operating a swindle. She
was returned here and indicted on two
counts by the grand jury.
Since her sensational escape from
Muscatine, when she feigned illness
in the early hours Of the morning and
won the confidence OF Sheriff Wiley's
wife who was taken of her guard,
Mrs. Mohr has earned the title Of
slippery Ann" In cities in several
states, the authorities reported several
times that the trail OF Mrs. Mohr had
been discovered but each time it
proved fruitless. The person under
surveillance always turned out to be
someone else or she mysteriously
vanished before arrest could be made.
10 Woman Of Brains.
Mrs. Mohr Is undoubtedly one Of the
cleverest women with whom the local
authorities have ever dealt. Altho at
every turn she exhibited remarkable
cleverness. she possibly excelled all
efforts when she executed her escape
from the local county Jail.
In the middle Of the night. Mrs
Mohr apparently became critically i'll.
From her mouth flowed stream OF
red which, Mrs. Wiley believed was
blood and she was apparently helpless
when the sherifrs wife left her cell
door open to hasten to the medicine
case for camphor. Hardly had she
left her cell when Mrs. Mohr recovered
herself. Stealing silently along the
Jail corridor. she made her exit out OF
the side door of the Jail before her alb
sence was discovered
With several minutes start she made
her way downtown and found a
farmer residing near Nichols whom
she induced to give her Tiff to the
neighboring town. in order that she
might make train connection
Altho bloodhounds were placed on
her trail she was not located from the
time she climbed into the farmers
vehicle and was taken to Nichols, un-
til she was arrested at St. Paul.

Muscatine, Feb. Annie Mohr
woman Of means" alleged CRATER and
Jail breaker for whom the police OF
almost every city in the United States
have been on the lookout since she
escaped Jail here and made her escape
year ago, has been apprehended at
st. Paul, MINI. according to word re-
ceived by Sheriff r. J. Wiley.
Mrs. MOhr is the same woman OF
congenial personality who is alleged to
be the head of a clever gang Of land
swindlers whose operations have ex-
tended across the continent In Mus
catine the swindle was worked sue
cessfully. 1t is claimed and the Rev.
L. E. Kettlekamp pastor of the Ger
man Methodist Episcopal church who
befriended Mrs. Mohr, was defrauded
out of several hundred dollars.
That Mrs. Mohr did not give up the
swindlng game after her apprehen-
sion and Imprisonment here, is indi-
Gated in the communication to Sheriff
Wiley from ST. Paul authorities. At
that place she is confronted with eight
indictments charging swindle, all OF
which have been returned since she
made her escape from Muscatine In
other cities turnout the United States
there are ALSO charges against her.
which makes 1t doubtful if she will
ever be returned here to be tried on
the two indictments now pending IN
the district court. However. Sheriff
Wiley expected TO leave today for st.
Paul to begin extradition proceedings
against her in case the st. Paul au-
thorities are willing to give her up.

"MOVEMENT WORK OF ENEMY
AGENTS" FEDERAL OFF.
CIAL DECLARES.

After caerful investigation, we
have reached the conclusion that the
entire I. w. w. movement is the work
of enemy agents. We have under
surveillance Germans who are guiding
the acts of these vandals. These men
are not working for labor; they are
working for the Germans"
With this assertion, made in a for
NAL statement by Assistant District
Attorney Caspar A. Ornbaum of San
Francisco, federal authorities Of
Washington. Oregon and California,
in conjunction with the federal grand
jury at San Francisco, began an in
vestigation this week Of the activities
Of the I. w. w. of the three coast
states.
Presidential warrants for alleged
German agents working with the ].
w. w. have already been requested
by Assistant, District Attorney Orn-
baum. 1t was said these warrants, II
issued, will charge treason.
The announcement, made Tuesday.
followed reports of further destruc-
ton of crops in California and Of
fresh attempts to hinder industry in
Oregon and Washington. Federal
authorities, it was declared, have as
certained that hundreds of tons Of
hay destroyed in Sonoma county, Cal
ifornia, was caused by phosphorus
placed in haystacks, and that loss Of
cattle in Stanislaus county was due to
poison which was fed the animals.
