TWO BIG RAILROAD FIRES
Fires at Clinton and Clarion destroyed roundhouses and damaged thirteen locomotives. Total losses are estimated around a quarter of a million dollars with Clinton alone valuing the roundhouse at not less than $200,000 and $25,000 for the Clarion roundhouse plus locomotive damages. An investigation is planned as the fires’ origin remains unknown suggesting possible sabotage.

Guard enlistments across the state meet satisfactory levels with officials predicting all companies will soon reach a peace strength of 100 men each despite orders to discharge married men. LeMars leads as first to report peace strength, aided by a local citizen who donated $500 for recruiting prizes. Two companies remain short of the goal, including Ames, as wartime directives affect additions.
