ed to be arrested and taken to Gang
Memo. where they have been subject.
ed to a rigid examination concerning
their knowledge Of night riding.
Now that their work is done. II is up
to the court to convict.
The court is in special session at
Union City now for that purpose
and developments may be expected
by the latter part OF the week.
1--WE know who fred the shot and
put the rope around Rankin's neck, "
said Gov. Patterson.
1.-The proof which has thus far de-
veloped is positive, as the guilt of
some of the men under arrest and
duplicates many others. This will
all be presented to the court at the
proper time and a long step has been
taken to discover and suppress law
lessness in this region. Conditions
have been extremely bad, the night
riders going from one lawless act to
another until elimination came with
the murder Of Capt. Rankin and the
attempted murder of Col. Taylor.
We know who fred the shot and who
put the rope around Rankin's neck.
"The number of men actually at
the killing was probably not more
than ten men, while some stood guard
and others held the horses. The
whole number engaged in the under
taking did not exceed thirty-five.
The inquiry will be further prescott.
ed and the state will have ample
evidence to convict"
It is learned that Frank Ferriner's
confession was full and complete I;
that he says he was with the men
Who took Rankin and Taylor TO the
bank of the slough that he told the
name of the man who pulled the rope
lifting the mob's victim into the air
and the name Of the man who fred
the FIRST shot into Rankin's body.
The confessions of Hogg and Morris
are also said to be complete. Hogg,
it is said. was one of the four men
who guarded the horses near the
scene of murder, while Morris stood
guard around the house when the
leaders went in after Rankin and
Taylor.
The confessions of Ferriner, Hogg
and Morris substantiate, it is said,
that of It'd Burton, who is said to
have spread the news among the
night riders that Rankin and Taylor
we're at Walnut Log. These three
will be used as states witnesses.
Ferriner, who is well known in
Hickman, where he has spent much
time in Jail. is the oldest of the trio,
being about thirty-fve years old g.
The others are mere boys of sixteen
or eighteen years of age-apparent-
ly uneducated country boys.

TOrturing Animals
To Assist Science
Is A Cruel Method to Follow, But II
/ Has Saved Many Human Lives.

Prof. Pawlow, OF Russir. was en-
gagged for many years in experimental
work, trying TO learn the workings OF
digestion. especially the digestive
glands.
He. with able assistants. operated
upon dogs, cats. guinea pigs. and other
animals
His methods were seemingly painful,
but h. gave to science a work. which
won tie Nobel prize and made for him
an unc ying fame.
Science penetrated the secrets OF na-
ture. Prof Pawlow saw animals digest
food He analyzed juices from every
part OF the digestive canal and stom-
ach under all conditions OF digestion
He spent years Of ceaseless study amid
the bowling and dying beasts. but he
won, and science today looks upon him
as a great man.
ITO do a great right do a little
wrong Shakespeare said and Prof.
Pawlow obeycd this trite saying.

WithholdS Action Only Be
cause of Suspicion
Against Powers.
BELIEVES AUSTRIA
WOULD SHOW ARMS
Sultan Turns to England, and Ex-
presses Willingness to Submit
Trouble to The Hague.

CONSTANTINOPLE. Sept. 29.-An ul-
innate declaration of war by Turkey
against Bulgaria was clearly indicated
today by the Sultan'S refusal to accept
The resignation Of the grand vizier. The
latter rendered his resignation because
the Sultan was tempOrizing IN the dis
pute with Bulgaria over the seizure or
the Turkish Oriental railway.
The refusal to accept the resignation
is believed to foreshadow the SuItan's
adoption Of the grand yizler's advice and
a movement against Bulgaria.
Turkeys indecision results from her
suspicion of the attitude or Russia, Ger
many, and Austria-Hungary. Despite
the protests of these countries against
Bulgarias conduct. the Sultan is con-
WINGED that in the event Of conflict these
powers would aid Bulgaria, Russia and
Germanya by their moral support, and
Austria-Hungary by arms, if necessary
In her dilemma Turkey has turned to
England, and today the Porte informed
