Turner, former coal mine foreman of feudist I'lke county, Ken tucky, tired of beliiB "dead In Ger many," I ngnln In thin rountry to fac chnrt;" of murderlnK the uni dentified miner whon tomlmtone beard Turner name, lie also In ne euHed of the murder of Henry Wll non, another mine worker killed In n mysterious explosion In a coal mine at McCarr, Kentucky. The fntal explosion wan considered an accident until Turner, who blamed other for the affair, pot homesick in Hamburg and wrote to a Kentucky friend a letter that reached the au thurltlen, When Turner, under weight from short rations and with his belonging In a paplerrnnche Hiiitcnse, stepped off the Kangplank of the steamer Resol lute, arriving from Hamburg yester day, he wan greeted by Taylor Hat field, one of tt) famous feudist clan and a deputy sheriff of Pike county. Hatfield showed Turner, a wnrrnnt for hi arrest. Mm. Turner, who tins been living In Trenton. N. J., with her five child ren since she and Turner's sister, Mrs. F. P. Farley of Coral Gables, Flu., col lected $08,000 after Turner's supposed death, said she had thought her hus band dead and had been bringing up her children in thnt belief. She said she had no part In Identi fication of the body. In Williamson. W. Vn Joe Jacks. Turner's father-ln-luw, who was an electrician for the mine at the time of the explosion Inst January, has been arrested also. "We were blasting In the new cut." Turner began his story to Hntfleld and the New York police yesterday. "Henry Wilson nnd some other men were setting dynamite charges. I was In another part of the mine." Ordinarily, according to Turner, It Is a safe nnd simple thing to attach wires to a dynamite chnrge. but the circuit must have closed and the ex plosive went off as soon as the wires touched It. Wilson nnd his compan ion were blown to pieces. "I didn't know anything about. It." continued Turner. "A brother-in-law of mine took me out to drink some white mule. He wouldn't let me go where anyone could see me. He kept making me drink and when I was good and drunk he pulled a gun on me and aald I would have to get out of toiy and stuy out. He tuld me where to go nnd what to do. 1 went." ' The remains of Wilson were Identi fied and when Turner's absence con tinued for several days, the other body, bndlv mangled, but about the right weight and measurements, was Identi fied as his. .An Insurance company paid his "widow" nnd his sister his In FUrnnce without protest. Turner went to Columbus, Ohio, and thence to New York where he was met by Ills fnther-lu-lnw. Joe .lacks, who had tickets fur Norway. T'Vom Norway, Turner went to Hamburg.

EXTENSION (Continued from page one.) Judge O. A. Gardner said It would be a Krent atop backward to dis mantle this road In face of the great timber resources and other natural re sources of Applegate valloy, when an intension would bring a payroll to Mmlfnrd and Jacksonville. He point ed to the preservation of tlio I. & K. niul Its resultant effects, as In wlmt might be accomplished by extending the Jackionvllle Mndford rond. William II. (lore stated that he had lien vory much Interested in an ex tension of the Mcdford-Jncksonvllln line1: that It should be donn and thnt Pol to exceed a 2 per cent grade and m degree curvature could ho obtained in crossing the divide. Ho further elated It would lie ll cnlamlly to Med ford to hove this rond removed Just when there Is such a development In prospect, and thnt the preservation of this road nnd extension of It would mean a duplication of tho I'. K. development. J. I). Cannon, who owns the Trull Lumber company, located on this lino, said removal of the road would put hi Ml out of business: that he controls n body of ino.0Uil.0O0 feel of timber that could be worked by n two or three mile extension.
