by Dr. John 4. l.anford, pathologist
OF Tulane university, who assisted Dr.
,-.nyal with the antopsles, The news
aper quoted both pathologists as
saying that In their opinions the
bodies were those of the kidnapped
men.
Governor Parker Of Louisiana re-
pcatedly has stated that the More
house parish Ku Klux Khan was re.
Hponsiblc for the Kidnapping and al
legged murder of Daniel and Richard.
while members OF tho Morchouse khan
organization have charged that the
bodies found In the lake were not
those OF the Mcr Rouge men, but that
they were "plantcd" there shortly he
fore discovered In order to fastcn the
crime upon the khan. That the bodies
were taken from n 81. Louis medical
school to Morehouse and placed In the
lake. has been charged by Captain J.
*. Skipwith. exalted cyclops OF the
parish khan.
DR.. Duyal made his statement when
he was asked by the newspaper re-
garding the testimony given yesterday
In Atlanta in the Ku Kiux Khan re-
Ownership suit that an investigator
who visited Morchouse parish had
said that the bodies identified as
those of Richard and Daniel had been
spread eagled" on a log wagon and
their heads thus crushed off. DIR.
Duval said such procedure might
have crushed the victims heads or
mashed off their feet but could not
have been the method by which their
bones from head to foot had been
symmetrically broken at about four
inch intervals
Many of those who have contend
ed that the bodies identified sas the
missing men were planted" in Lake
La Fourche have expressed the belief
that the bodies were taken to the lake
in two huge boxes, shipped to More
house as part of the equipment of a
diver who was employed to explore
the bottom of the lake a few days be-
fore they were brought to the sur
face by dynamite charge.
Others have advanced the. theory
that the bodies of the kidnapped VIC
time were concealed and when the
search became intensive they were
thrown into the lake to prevent dis
covery.

Canal Discloses Tools
Dating Back Centuries

Rome. Oct si.--A complete set OF
workman's tools were cNcavated re-
Gently during some repairs 10 the
canal used to carry off the water Of
the river felino. The tools are said
TO date back to the construction Of
the canal by Manius GURUS Dentatus
In 272 r. C.
The Velino is so impregnated with
lime that the bed of the river is con-
stantly rising and II was necessary to
construct the canal to carry off the
water The canal is in use to this
day. Its construction incidentally re-
suited in the making Of the finest and
most beautiful waterfalls In Italy,
Those of the Anio at Tivoli. and the
cascades called del Marmore." Here
the Veino preciptates itself in three
leaps from height of nearly 500
feet.
