TO Hulet Smith, chief Of detectives,
however, his name will not be placed
on h regular docket until he is able
to be taken to police headquarters. The
gravity OF his gunshot wodnd win not
or four weeks.
Gates, according to Chief Smith, dis
closed but few details Of the train rob-
berry. In his weakened condition he is
unable to talk freely and detectives
were content with obtaining from him
an admission OF his own guilt and the
names of his four c~onfederates. Smith
says Martin and Franklin we're named
by Gates as being In on the deal.
Little change Is apparent in Gates
condition since he was found lying in
the weeds near where the three ban
ats leaped from the express oar and
fled, Gates vas shot in the back, the
bullet emerging through his abdomen,
Surgeons found II necessary to remove
a kidney TO save his life. Gates has
laughed at statements that he may die,
confidently declaring he will recover,
In view OF the fact that he has wealth
cred more than four days without get

prediction probably will come true.
Gates will not discuss his arrest with
anyone, following orders given him by
Chief Smith after his confession.

quarters. 1t is unlikely they will be
arraigned before Gates is able to appear
IN court. So far there is no indication
that either win be able to furnish bond.
Chief Smith expressed surprise that
the bandits selected the accommodation
train to rob, Smith said that this train
selGom carries money or anything else
or exceptional value, and that as rail
road men the robbers should have
known that, A package Of pistols and
a parcel Of jewelry were seized by the
three men who leaped from the express
car when the train came to an unex-
pected stop in the Nonconnah yards.
Detectives have found no trace Of the
loot and Smith say Gates said nothing
about It,, The fact that Gates was
abandoned in the flight is easily ex-
planned. He was the last to leave the
express car and his two c~onfederates
were q considerable distance away when
he was shot. II is doubtful that they
would have stopped to render him aid
even II they had known that he had
been wounded.
Detectives are still searching the city
for the remaining two men. Smith Is
confident they are still In the city but
other police officials, In view Of Gates
admissions, think there is little doubt
but that they have placed as many miles
as possible between themselves and

COUNTY ATTORNEY MAcoMeER
MAKES GOOD ON ANNOUNCED
INTENTIONS.
HOLDS PARDON VOID
AND WITHOUT REASON
Prosecutor Sets Up Claim That Fraud
Was Resorted TO in Evidence Pre-
ssnted Before Goverwor-Case Be.
ing on Appeal, Governor 10 Hold to
Be Without Power to Intervene.

Ida Grove, Jan. 23.-County Attor-
ney Macomber has made good his an
nounced intentions to fight the pardon
Of Ernest Rathbun, who was freed by
Governor Harding after having been
convicted Of rape and sentenced to
long term In prison. He has filed
petition in the district court OF Ida
county asking that the pardon OF Err
nest Rathbun, who was convicted OF
rape and sentenced to the penitentiary
for life, be set aside.
The petition states that the pardon
is absolutely void and of no force or
effect. and as grounds therefor holds
that the governor of Iowa had no au-
thority vested in him on Nov. 10, 1919
to execute pardon, inasmuch as the
case has been appealed from the lower
court to the supreme court and II that
court should decide that there was an
error in the case II would stand in the
lower court as if there had been fno
trial.
AS a second reason, the county at
torney alleges that the pardon was
obtained in fraud in that there were
in the proceedings before the governor
a suppression of the truth a suggestion
of falsehood. and misrepresentation OF
the evidence submitted at the lower
court.
In fact, it charged that the crudcst
form of fraud was used in presenting
the case to the governor, in that the
abstract included the evidence of a
witness who claimed on the night OF
the crime to have seen a car near the
bridge with iour persons in 1t. two men
and two girls, and to have heard them
talking and laughing.
This evidence was presented without
showing ii had been stipulated at the
trial that Pathhun and O'Meara we're
not in the car that witness saw.
