 Nashville, Tenn, July 22.-A Hop lxinsvflIe, Ky, dispatch says:
 Night riders burned station houses of the Illinois Central Railroad early this morning at Gracy. in Christian Ceun- ty. Ceruelan, in Trigg County and ot- terpond in Caldwell County.
 Each depot was set on fire shortly after 1 o'clock. Yesterday the Illinois Central gave permission to Madison vile soldiers on duty in night rider regions to camp on its property at Cobb. near Otter Pond. The action aroused much indignation. Two weeks ago when a squad of soldiers visited Cobb, they were ordered off. food re- fused them and they were told they would not be permitted to establish a camp. At Gracy. shortly after 1 o'clock this morning. twenty masked and arm ed night riders captured the telephone I exchange. took two operators with them to the station, set the house on Are and rode away. At Cerulean the burning was quietly accomplished.
 At Cobb, after the building was fired l the night riders shot guns and pistols and then rode away. Each raid was | by a different squad of night riders.

Train Moving Slowly at Time

Sterling, O., Oct. 14.-The first cas-.
ualty to the Taft special in all its
travels occurred as the train pulled
onto siding at this place. The front
truck of Judge Taft's car and the rear
truck of Pullman just ahead of 1t
left the track. The train was coming
to stop and the car of the candidate
did not move a length after the acci.
dent. One of the journals of the truck
was cracked, but was pronounced to
be safe. The delay on account of the
derailment was just thirty minutes
but this, added to the time which had
been previously lost, put the special
an hour behind in leaving Sterling.
The cause of the accident was ascribed
to the spreading rails of the siding on
which the special was moving in its
transfer from the Erie to the Balti.

his speech to the people Of Sterling

SUIT WILL CHARGE LIBEL
Haskell Preparing to Begin Action
Against Hearst.

Kansas City, Oct. 14.-Governor
Charles N. Haskell of Oklahoma has
arrived here from Guthrie to consult
his attorneys with reference to suit
that he says he intends to bring
against William Randolph Hearst,
charging the New York editor with
libel. The governor stated that he
had already placed the matter in the
hands of his attorneys and that the
petition would be filed by them when
ever they saw fit. The suit, he said,
probably would be brought in the cir
cult court, but just when he was un-
able to say. The case grows out of
the publication of the Standard Oil
story, the controversy over which led
to Governor Haskell's resignation as
the treasurer of the Democratic ma
tiOnal committee.

SHIFTS BACK TO BULGARIA
Servia No Longer Danger Point ir
Balkan Crisis.

Paris, Oct. 14.-Advices received
here from French official sources in
dicate that the danger point in the
Balkans has shifted back to Bulgaria
While there is no confirmation of the
report that Bulgaria has delivered al
ultimatum to Turkey regarding thu
recognition of her independence in
side of three days there is reason tt
believe that Bulgaria is determined tC
make a move on Turkey in case the
powers persist in their refusal to ac
cept her independence as an accom-
plished fact.
1t is believed here that If the Bull
garian army crosses the Turkish from
tier Great Britain will land troops fol
the protection of Constantinople.
