FRANK BALL
Will Return TO Middlesboro, and
Face Bell County
Jury,
WHEN ASSURED OF A FAIR TRIAL.

Frank Ball, the alleged Bell
county fugitive-murderer, says
he will return to Middlesboro for
trial when satisfied he can have
a fair and impartial hearing.
The troops at Middlesboro spent
a quiet day and there was no
further trouble with the outlaws
in the mountains, who are now
said to be under the leadership
of Riley Ball, sixteen-year-old
boy. Under a misapprehension
Col. Roger Williams, of the 2nd.
Reg, X. S. g., ordered all the
companies of his regiment ready
for service in the mountains, but
it is not now thought they will
be needed.
Houston Ball, brother of Shell
by Ball, who is the reputed lead
er of the gang in the mountains,
and of Frank Ball, accused of
Jack Bolen's murder, and uncle
of Riley Ball, a sixteen-year- old
boy, indicted for completely in
the murder, gave out an inter
view, in which he said that
Frank Ball had left the country.
Shelby Ball, he says, is i'll unto
death of consumption and heart
disease, and he believes Riley
Ball and the gang have left the
mountains. He says that he has
been in communication with
Frank Ball, and that he will re-
turn and surrender to the author
tiles within two weeks. 1t is
said that an effort is being made
to receive assurance from Cir
cult Judge Moss that he will be
given bail before he gives him.
self up.
| Despite the reported conflict
In the mountains yesterday, two
hold-ups were reported from
Cumberland Gap, and it is
said $97 in money was obtained
from the men who were stopped.
| is now believed that Shelby Ball
is not the leader of the gang, but
that Riley Ball. the boy, is the
Header. Houston Ball said that
he had positive information that
the hold-ups had been committed
by Charles Burch, former con-
vict, from Tennessee, and Pat
Gully, who is with the gang.
Ball is not sure how many
men have been hiding in the
mountain fastness, but believes
there are only few.
A reputable resident of Cum
berland Gap visited the camp
last week, however, and counted
twelve men. Among them were
Burch, Gully, Shelby and Riley
Ball, two men named Linger and
Wilder ond jim Stewart, who, it
is said, owns and operates the
blind tiger. This same resident,
who visited Middlesboro Monday,
said that two men had been held
up in the mountains and robbed
of $97. He was not sure of their
names, but said they had re.
ported the case to the Tennessee
authorities. He also said that
Shelby Ball was seen in Cumber-
land Gap yesterday.
There was report rife at Mid
dlesboro Monday, verified from
Cumberland Gap, that Shelby
Ball and one son are now staying
at a house known as the Crosby
place, just over the Tennessee
line. 1t is reported that this has
become the headquarters of the
gang, and upon this evidence the
Tennessee authorities will be APP
pealed to for assista nee in the
arrest of the gang.
Houston Ball is the owner of a
saloon in Middlesboro. He has
high reputation as a business
man, and his statements regard
ing the brothers are regarded as
correct. He said this afternoon

parliamentary law that a minority
member forfeits his rights and priv
