ESCAPES BY DELAY
Root Blocks Extradition of
Russian Rebel.
NEW EVIDENCE IS FOUND
3IagiMrale Found Against Poureu,
but Koot Orders Case Reopened.
Prisoner Tries to Assault
Czar's Lawyer.
NEW YORK. Oct. 21. A letter from
Kcrtary of Stale Root to Jacob H.
So h Iff, of New York, was made public
here today dealing with the attitude of
the Govern mens tn securing equality of
treatment for American citizens visiting
Kusslu, and also explaining the Govern
ment's position in the case of Jan Janoff
I'ouren. the Russian refugee now de
tained in New York City by the Federal
Court. Mr. Root's Tetter brings out for
the first time that the United States has
aked Russia for a complete revision and
amendments of the treaty of 1S32. which
provides for reciprocal rights of residence
and travel for the citizens of the two
countries.
In this letter Mr. Root says:
Vailed to I'rove Innocent.
Of course thtir Government doe not for
a moment contemplate sending Foui n or
any one else brk la Kuftvln or to vaiy other
country to be trlcU for a political offence.
An extradition case, how ever. Ik a ju
dicial prot-fedtng in which testimony is
taken brfore a committing maKt.trate In
at-rorlnre with the law and In which the
magistrate decides upon the evidence be
fore him. H:s decision then comes before
the St.it tirtment for review. In this
rase the decision of the commissioner n
New York, together with the evidence, was
received br the Plate Department at lash
lnjcton on the lith of last month. Thj
magistrate's decision was araint Pouren
and H itppeared. when the law officers of
t ,ie department examined the record, that
no substantial evidence had been produced i
before the magistrate to show that the
offends charged aeatnst Pouren were to
Htical. so that, if the State Department had
acted promptly in the case it would have
been obliged to decide that the mflRistrate's
derision was correct upon the evidence be
fore him and to issue a warrant for Pouren' s
extradition.
Root Orders Ct Reopened.
In view, however, of statements after
ward brought to the attention of the de
partment, tending to show that Pouren was
in fact a political offender and not an
ordinary criminal. Instead of an adverse
decision being made a casual Inquiry was
made by the department and. upon its
appearing that there whs substantial evi
dence in the form of affidavits which had
not been produced before the magistrate
to show Pouren's acts were political, the
magistrate was directed to re o pet. the
case and give Pouren's counsel an oppor
tunity to Introduce such evidence. You
will perceive that the delay in deciding
this case, far from being injurious to Pou
ren. has been altogether favorable to him
and for the purpose of giving him an
opportunity to prove his real defense, which
he failed to prove originally.
Pouren Hushes at Coudert.
During the argument before Commis
sioner Shields on the question of re-opening
the Pouren case today, Pouren
rushed at Frederick E. Coudert. counsel
for the Russian government, but was
stopped by United States Marshal Penfce.
Mr. Coudert had opposed re-opening the
case on the ground that the Commission
er is now without Jurisdiction, having
once decided the case. Congressman
Herbert Parsons, counsel for Pouren.
urged Pouren's claims for a rehearing
and the Commissioner said he was In
clined to proceed with it. but would give
Mr. Coudert until tomorrow to prepare
a brief.

Judge Taylor Tells Story of
Escape From Night Riders.
TARGET FOR RIFLEMEN
Jumped Into Rayon and Swam to
Safety Tramped Strange Woods
for Two Days Militia
In Service.
TIPTONVILLE. Tenn., Oct 21. Un
harmed, save numerous scratches re
ceived In a 30-hour trip through un
familiar woods, and the fatigue inci
dent to the trip without food, and the
mental strain. Judge R. Z. Taylor
reached here today after a miraculous
escape from Night Riders at Reel Foot
Lake, who murdered his partner. Cap
tain Quintln Rankin, night before lasc
Make Dash for Liberty.
Judge Taylor's escape 1s due to a
daring dash for liberty while the Night
Riders were disputing among them
selves the best way to kill him. Dur
ing, the heat of. the discussion, at a
moment when the guards' attention was
diverted. Judge Taylor broke for free
dom. Dashing a few yards to the bank
of a small inlet of Reel Foot Lake, he
plunged In, a fusilade of bullets follow
lag the fugitive, whose figure was
dimly discerned in the growing dawn
of approaching daylight, swimming, the
aged attorney pushed forward. Bul
lets and shots fell on every side, but
none struck him.
Judge Taylor told the story today
of his capture an-escape. He said:
"Monday night last Captain Rankin
and I went to Reel Foot Lake In re
sponse to a letter from a Mr. Car
penter, ot Union City, who wanted to
lease some timber land.
Saw Rankin Hanged.
"On our arrival at the lake we went
to the Loghouse. or Ward Hotel, and
after, supper retired. Sometime during
the night we were aroused by some
one knocking at our door and. on
opening the door, a mob of masked men
was found standing in the hall. We
were ordered to dress and, as the lead
er of the mob said he wanted to talk
to us, we put on our clothes and ac
companied the men to the bank of the
lake some distance from the hotel.
"The leader of the mob talked with
us, telling us we were associating too
much with Judge Harris and were tak
ing entirely too mush interest in the
lake. He said that the course of Harris
and the West Tennessee Land Com
pany in prohibiting free fishing was
causing the starvation of women and
children and that something had to be
aone.
"1 never dreamt the mob Intended us
any harm, but just then they threw a
rope around Captain Rankin's neck and
swung him to a limb. He protested
and said 'Gentlemen, don't kill me," and
the reply of the men was a volley of
at) shots.
"This was the first evidence of any
fhtentlon to harm us, and when the
firing began I jumped into a bayou
and made for a sunken log. Behind
this I hid and the mob fired several
hundred shots into the log. They evi
dently thought I was dead, for I heard
one of them say, 'He's dead and let
him go, and with that they rode away.
"I remained in the water until after
the mob was out of hearing, and went
to an sland in the lake, where I re
mained all day Tuesday. At night I
starteaout and walked all night, com
ing to a house at 6 o'clock this morning."
MILITIA START OX MAS-HCXT
Governor Determined to Pnt Down
Further Lawlessness.
UNION CITY, Tenn.. Oct. 21.
Governor Patterson began early today
to direct operations toward apprehension
of those concerned in the murder of
Captain Rankin, at Reel Foot Lake. One
hundred and fifty militiamen, under
command of Colonel W. C. Tatum, ar
rived at Union City, and will be dis
tributed throughout the district.
Governor Patterson gave out the toU
lowing statement:
"I have offered the largest reward
the law will permit for the arrest and
conviction of the assassins, and have
ordered out troops. I have believed that
the militia should be the last resort in
a state government, but the time has
now come when It Is my duty as Gov
ernor to have all the power at my com
mand to restore order In the region
where these assassinations have oc
curred, and to assist the courts In the
apprehension and punishment of the
perpetrators.
"We have had enough of lawlessness,
of threats. Intimidation and other meth
ods of terrorizing citizens and communi
ties. This should be stopped, and must be
stopped, or the consequences will have
to be accepted. For the present I have
left the campaign for the Governor
ship, believing that the upholding of
law and order In our state Is of more
Importance than political discussions.'
Under. command of Colonel W. C. Ta
turn, of Nashville, 11 men of the Third
battalion First Regiment, Tennessee Na
