Peterson to this state,
There Is some Joubt as to the iden-

only be settled by the sending OF a
man who knows Peterson to Tucson

If Knudson left for Arizona over the

ConstantinopIe, April 20-The revo-
luton In Turkey is far from an end
1t Will never end until the sultan
and his chamber of horrors have
passed into history.
In the sultans park is the torture
chamber of the government, which is
roDularly called "the garden of suf-
fering." The existence of this relic of
earbarism has been well known to the
turks for many years. but never
have the horrors of it been depicted
to the world so graphically as during
the trial OF Nedjib Pasha. The crime
for which Ncdjib Pasha is on trial is
the torturing, even to DEATH of the
suspected persons who came into his
lands as the result of the bomb
throwing about four years ago, in
which 70 persona were killed. the
sultan himself being aimed at by the
aSsassins. Among those captured
were many innocent parties. but Ned
iibs tortures were not spared pending
an investigation The tortures carried
on almost within the palace itself and
vision Of the sultan can scarcely he
believed In civilized land.
Day after day Nedjibs victims
those of them who have managed to
survive his tortures-have appeared to
testify against him. Scared, crippled,
and prematurely aged, Many of them
tied under his hands and can never
testify. The pitiful procession of
wrecked and ruined men who haze
hobbled into court TO tell what they
suffered has shocked and Mortified the
city.
A favorite punishment Of his maj
osty's and one which was first dis
covered and recommended by Kla-
thane-Imamy. the sultan's clown, con-
sists in the gradual squeezing of tho
body by means of weights. This en-
tails horrible suffering and rarely
leads to death. but there have been
Instances OF men subjected TO this
torture dying in the hands OF the ex-
ecutioner
Another kind OF torture. almost az
simple, consists in the application oil
hot eggs, taken from boiling water,
under the armpits- Experts here-and
Turkey contains many experts on This
sLDject-say that the suffering thus
caused gives such shock to the nor
ycus system that the victims who m
icrgo 1t soon go mad.
This form of torture was applied to
the eunuch Morzeffer Aga, who was
cxiied TO Mecca about two years ago
