Castalia man in jail on forgery charge at Decorah
Chas Fox of Castalia is jailed in Decorah awaiting trial for forging supervisor M J Nicholson’s name on a 23 40 bridge warrant and passing it to H J Etteldorf Ossian merchant.

A West Union report in the St Paul Dispatch describes a new farming scam in Iowa where real estate firms solicit lists of farms for sale then promise 60 cents per acre commission for advertising. The contract is vague and can claim payment regardless of sale, prompting farmers to settle with firms to avoid disputes. West Union warns farmers to beware and avoid being injured by such contracts.
