Des Moines. March 9.-As result

Of more than 100000 During the
fire two members of the fire depart
ment were killed by walls of the burn

at which place the fire had its origin,
paying $4,000 for the property. Al
few days before the fire he increased
the insurance carried to 10000 On
account of this excessive amount of
insurance, coupled with number of
other suspicious circumstances, it i

KAISER PLANS TO SPREAD IN
pUsTRIAL REVOLUTION.
LENINE THE TOOL or THE HUN
Germany To Crush United States,
England, France, Italy and Japan
by Means Of Great internal
Disturbances.
(By Robert ]. Benders.l

Washington, March 9. Germany
with the aid of Nicholai Lenine, Boil
sheviki prime minister, is planning
to bring about an industrial revolu-
tion in the United States, Japan,
France, Italy and England.
Lenine is kaiser's Agent. 7.
The United Press is able to present
, for further information received here
from the highest of authorities but of
chinations of Lenine in his campaign
against the militarism of the allies,
while he is acting as the cats paw of
the Teutons.
Propaganda is Dangerous.
Following the statement of Lord
Robert Cecil, British Minister of
Blockade, that certain elements of
the Bolsheviki acting in collision
with the German agents have adopted
an openly anti.entente attitude, in
formation reaching the state depart
ment at Washington today revealed
the fact that the German-Lenine pro-
paganda~ now under way is of the
most dangerous character since the
war began.
Aeitators At Work.
Already it has great points, one of
which the Germans have laid before
the Bolsheviki leaders, a proposition
whereby the German agents sailing
in Russian ships are to be landed in
Japan the United States and the
British East Asian colonies, to do the
work as agitators.
Prisoners Freed.
Already this government is inform
ed of the freedom granted by the Ger
man officials to the German prison
ers of war now in Siberia.
To Ineite Rebellion.
In the meantime through a move
Iment OF the Swedish socialists and
Lenine's carefully CHOSEN agents the
work of spreading ultra-propaganda
among the workmen in all of the
allied countries is to go on in the
hope and aim of stirring, up an in
dustrial rebellion.
The following was received in
German cable received here today:
To Spread German Agents.
"The Petrograd representative of
the German navy has received in
structions to propose to the peoples
commentaries to allow several steam
ships to be operated for the purpose
of transporting German agents at
Valdivatok, to be loaded as merchan-
disc vessels and sent into the United
States. Japan and the British colonies,
in Eastern Asia, the cargo which is to
carry German agents as agitators in
those countries"

not want to miss a single name, but
this is big job and the cooperation
of the parents and friends is neces
sary in order to avoid mistakes. Tel
ephone the Office so that your boy
may be represented on the service

means of honoring these fellows will
be adopted little later.
