AFGHAN CITADEL
ROOM REVEALS
HORROR SCENE
Find Six Bodies, Including
Relatives of DepoSed
Monarch.

BV United Press
LONDON, Oct. 21.-A new tale of
horror is added to the history of
Afghanistan which has had four
kings and at least as many wars in
Xix months.
A locked room in the Ark, central
,itadel of the Afghan capital of
<abul, where the usurper, King
3acha Sakao held forth until driven
rom the city by Nadir Khan last
week, has been opened and has dis
closed the new chapter of fright
illness.
The room contained six corpses,
according to a dispatch from ALA
nadad TO the Daily Telegraph. One
was that OF Abdul Maid Khan,
brother OF King Amanullah, whom
Bacha Sakao dethroned last spring.
Another was that of Hayatulla
Khan, half-brother Of Amanullah.
A third was that of Mohammed Us
man. former governor of Kandahar.
The other three bodies were I'M
identified.
The corpses were in a horrible
condition, the dispatch said. The
manner in which the six died was
not known, although it was recalled
that Bacha Sakao had held royal
hostages in the fortress and threat
ened to kill them unless paid large

Hadir Khan not only has
marched in as king, but has carried
the ambition to modernize the
country. He apparently is I'M
discouraged by the fact that
Amanullah. his friend, was ousted
from the throne partly because OF
his efforts TO modernize the cloth
ing of Afghans.
Madame Andre Viollis, who flew
to the Afghan capital OF Kaoul and
witnessed Nadir Khan's arrival
there with his triumphant army last
week. quotes the new ruler in the
Petit Parisienne Of Paris telling her
in an interview:
Il returned to Afghanistan not
for the purpose of ascending the
throne. but to benefit my country.

ward progress, despite the precarious
state Of my health.
Il intend to reopen the schools,
create new railroads and develop in
dustries.
Il expect the cooperation of all
countries, particularly France, where
I spent the best five years of my
life"
Nadir Khan is not expected to
have an easy time achieving his
purpose. Although tribal leaders
insisted on his becoming king,
United Press dispatches from CAL
cutta indicated that sections of
the large Afghan population in
Indian refused to swear allegiance,
and a small hostile army intended to
move against him.

 Man Arrested Tells Facts
 Jacob Crane, formerly q printer of Springfield, H., was seized on in formation supplies by Albert Carl Barron, one of seven men already in- dicted in the case.
 Crane, according to Roche, said that diplomas of the Rush Medical College, the Northwestern University Medical schof and the University ot Wisconsin Medical school were forged, as we'll as interne's certifi- cates from the Cook County (Chica- go) hospital, and Illinois state li- ccnses and seals.

 Cranes story, according to Roche, was substantially as follows:

 About a year ago he was ap- preached in Springfield by Harry Goldstein, alias Senator Browski' ' also of Springfield, who ordered a photostatic copy of physicians license. Crane made the copy and sent it to Terre Haute, Ind, for an engraving.
 Several weeks later Crane was ap- preached by Barron. who submitted original diplomas of the colleges and hospital and ordered photostatic copy of each. The copies were also sent to Terre laute.
 Soon afterwards several Chicago engraving firms agreed to make counterfeit plates of the Illinois state seal to be attached to the
