The Storm
At Camp
Wheeler

Capt Steitz sends in the following,
taken from the Macon Telegraph de.
scribing the recent storm:
The water had just about all drain
ed off in the 121st and 122d Infantry
when the big freeze of early Saturday
morning struck the camp, but the in
fantry machine gun battalions, the
1O6th Engineers and the 123rd and
124th Infantry regiments awoke yes
terday morning to find that much of
the water was still standing around
their tents and in their company
streets.
The officers quarters of the 123rd
Infantry probably suffered more than
any other from the run-off of the
cloudburst in the 121st and 122nd In
fantry of Friday night Not only was
the half foot of water around their
tents frozen over, but several inches
of ice covered the floors of the tents.
Shoes Frozen to Floors
Many of the officers arose from
their sandwiched-in warmness of army
blankets only to place their feet on
several inches of ice in their tents.
Their army shoes were frozen to the
floor hard and fast, the stove pipe
had been blown away, and the coal
and wood frozen in piles of ice, while
outside in the morning air bugler

The enlisted men seemed not to suf-
fer so much from the overf1owed and
frozen habitats. The fact that sew
eral occupied the same tent and the
presence of guards in the company
streets during the night saved them
from the experience of their ranking
brothers in arms. The quartermaster
department was drawn on considera-
bly, during the earlier part of the night
to save the men from having to sleep
on damp blankets. AS far as report
ed to the different headquarters, there
was little suffering because Of the
storm and the cold weather which fol-

Wind Tears Out Tents
The high wind which followed the
storm caused more discomforture
than the flood of the afternoon. Tent
flaps could not be kept down nor tent
flys fastened down. The peggings
were continually pulled up and sol
diers had to get out in their "nighties"
and fasten them down while the
"cussing" which rang out in the cold
air was rich and bracing.
During the big windstorm trans
former fell from one Of the posts in
the 61st Infantry Brigade, causing the
lights in that section of the camp to

Several of the big PANEL windows
in the top of the knights of Column
bus hall were smashed in by the
storm and the rain beat in upon the
furnishings. Four or five soldiers at
each of the big double doors fought
during the storm to keep the storm
from breaking through.
Windows and doors in several OF
the army Y. NJ c. A. buildings were
yesterday reported smashed in Some
of the roofing was blown off the
buildings, but aside from leaks the
water caused them little damage.

GERMAN Ex-PRISONERS
IN BOLSHEvIKIST RANKS

Hardin, Manchuria, March 12-
Gen. Semenoff, the anti-Bolshevik
leader in Siberia, has retreated into
ManchUria before the advance of a
superior Bolshevik force, say advices
from the border. The accuracy of
the Bolshevik fire during the fighting
is taken to indicate the cooperation
of former German prisoners.
Gen. Semenoff brought his dead
and wounded with him in his retire
ment Nurses and a supporting de-
night
Gen. Semenoffs munitions are re-
ported exhausted, as well as the
funds at his disposal.
Officials of the Allies in Hardin
agree that the situation in Siberia
is growing worse. Every plan pro-
posed for the amelioration of condi-
ticns meets with opposition or apathy,
they say, while so per cent. of the
railroad workmen in Manchuria now
are Bolshevik in utilization, whereas
a month ago the percentage was in

planning the destruction of the sup
ply outfit. Loyal Cossacks, however
! forced the movement of the relief
| trains.
Reliable observers, according to re-
| ports received by the Associated
Press correspondent, have found that
| there is a widespread pro- German
propaganda, with speech making by
| Bolshevik orators, among the work
men, with never a word of a pro-
| Ally nature.
The American consul in Hardin has
distributed $4,000 copies of President

$4,000 FIRE
IN BALTIC, CONN.

Baltic, March IAN early morning
fire today destroyed the Shannon
building in Railroad street, a three
story structure, with a loss of about
$40, 900. The cause of the fire is I'M
known. It started in the rear of the
drygoods store of Charles F. Charon
on the street floor, and was spreading
throughout the building when the vii
lage fire department responded The
first effort to call the Norwich depart
ment for help failed because telephone
wires had been burned. Finally an
automobile engine with crew was
brought here by Chief H. L. Stanton.
As the Shannon building was quick
ly doomed, every effort was directed
to saving adjoining property and this
was SusESE=zzSzs
In the burned building were the
stores of Charles F. Charon, drygoods;
John Brown, bakery; the Baltic phar
macy and Fontain's barber shop. On
the second floor was a hall and Offices,
and above that were apartments. Mr.
Charon owned the building.
Among individual losses were these:
ICharon, $4,000 on his store and con-
tents, and $4,000 on the building; the
pharmacy, $4,000; Brown, 5000; and
Fcntain, $500.

ARGENTINA
IS RID OF
LUXBURG
Elk German Minister and
Strike Instigator Flees
to Chile.

Buenos Aires, Argentina, March
FIT is reported here today
that Count Won LlIxburg, the for
mer German minister, las fed
Argentine territory, escaping to
Chile.
Count Won Luxburg had been
granted Il safe conduct by the
British COVE arment to sail for
Sweden and was expected to de-
part soon on Tue steamer VAL
paradise.
His escape was suspected when
reports came from Puente del
Inca, in the Andes, that the for
mer minister, the former German
naval attache and a large group
of other Germans passed there
last night on the international
train for Chile. Inquiry of po-
lice here showed that Count Won
Luxburg had been missing for
several days from the house in the
suburb of Tomas de Zamora,
where he was supposed to have
been under strict surveillance. The
count was allowed to live there
because the German hospital
authorities had informed the gov
ernment that his mental condi-
ton required quiet surroundings.
Count Won Buxburg's escape on
TIE eve of his forced departure
strengthens the long standing be-
lief here that he was making
every effort to remain in South
America to direct the activities of
German agents who have been
folnenting labor troubles and har-
assing Allied shipping.
