The farm home occupied by Mr..

The farm home occupied by Mr.
and Mrs. Avery Pugh west of Dow
City was almost completely destroyed
by fire on Monday of last week, the
cause of which Is unknown. Mrs.
Pugh, better known as Coda Ander-
son, has been spending the past sew
eral weeks at the nome of her mother
in this city and Mr.. Pugh had just re-
turned from a trip to Denison. He
lighted the fire in the cook stove and
went out to do his chores and in a
very short time the house was in
flames. With the assistance Of neigh
bors part of the furniture was saved
but inasmuch as the water had to. be
carried, for a quarter Of mile, the
fire gained such Roadway that the loss
was almost total. The friends of Mr..
and Mrs. Pugh will regret to learn of
their misfortune.

FACTORY PROSPECTS BRIGHT
Special Committee Made Up to Fur
thering Interests Of Prospective
Tire Factory for Denison

w. e. Bonsall, who is in Denison
looking up the prospects for locating
tire factory here, called at the Re:
view office this morning and stated
that he is finding much encourage.
ment to his project from the business
men of the city and believes that he
will have no difficulty in disposing OF
the necessary stock.
A special committee made up of
Carl F. Kuehnle, president of the
Bank of Denison; Sears McHenry,
cashier of the First National bank;
George Naeve, vice president of the
Crawford County State bank; J. w.
Miller, Jr.. cashier of the Commercial
bank; DR.. l.. NJ. Coon, B. Brodersen
and J. F. Pfarr, has been appointed
by Hugo Gebert, president of the Com
mercial club, to investigate the mat
ter and make a report at the next
meeting of the club. We understand
that the committee thus far are we'll
impressed with the project.
Messrs. w. E. Bonsall and J. H.
Bonsall propose to incorporate for
$4,000 and will take $4,000 worth OF
stock themselves. These. gentlemen
have no high financial ideas of estab-
fishing a factory but propose to CON-
mence in modest way in temper
airy building to be leased and put the
capital raised into thoroughly first
class equipment and raw material.
It is desired to get dealers in this
vicinity interested as stockholders. A
factory of this kind would not only
prove a source of profit according to
Mr.. Bonsall, but would furnish en-
ployment to people locally. Denison
needs a factory to employ its labor
ers. 1t is we'll worth investigating.

by the Allies that a recently arrived

have been creating disturbances. bo
moved from the city.
The province commander, Rozpov,
says he moved into the city 1000 troops
early in September to forstall coup

an emergency. The result has been
numerous incidents of friction. including
the murder OF three allied soldiers. one
American, one Russian and one Czech,
and many minor ARRAYS.
During the last year Kolchak repre-

I'm view of this situation, the allied
and associated Governments maintain
the principle of the full responsibility of
the German Government in the carrying
out of the evacuation of the region. and
they mean to maintain the integrity of
the coercive measures announced in the
third telegram of September 27. as long
as the evacuation has not been under
taken and pursued with all desirable
celebrity.
However, for the purpose or en-
couraging the execution OF the operation
and the lending of assistance to the
German Government, the Allied and AS
ISOLATED Governments expect to send al
lied representatives whose mission should
| consist of (a) receiving from the Ger
man Government information regarding
measures decided upon by 1t as well al

| itself may deem advisable; (b) In exer-
| cising on the spot, and with all power
| of action, effective control of the execu'
