MYSTERY MAN At KEOkUK.
Stranger Demands Admission To city's
Manufactures.

Keokuk. Jan. Who is the man
dressed in dark clothes who is de-
manding admission to some Of the
Keokuk factories. especially those in
which war supplies are known to be
In the process of manufacture?
This is the question which Is bother
ing some of the heads OF the plants
in Keokuk II the stories OF the strange
visitations of this unknown man told
by their employees are true.
The man attempted to get into one
Of the factories the other day. HIS
actions aroused the suspicion or the
employees and they kept him out OF the
factory until the head OF the factory
arrived. 1t was learned from other
sources that the man has been inquir-
ing around about certain plants here,
and that he has been seeking adinis-
sion to some OF these.
While there are only a few plants
here actually making war orders, 1t
would not be hard matter to get into
some Of the other plants, especially
those where food products are being
made and TO put poison or glass into
the product 1t is of curse probable
that the mans course is an innocent
one, and that the people are SO excited
over everything that has the slightest
thread for a plot in it that they are
exaggerating the mans actions.
