A ROYAL WELCOME
Shown thc American Fleet By
Japanese Government
ENTERTAINED IN GREAT STYLE
Tremendous Procession of Miles of
Madly-Cheering People Reviewed
hy Admiral Sperry and the Ameri
can F:eet Officers.
Tokio, By Cable.-The eapitol of
Japan witnessed Thursday night- the
most extraordinary evidence of the
spirit of the new Japan. After hav
ing an audience of the officers of the
American battleship fleet on Tuesday
the Emperor issued an order directing
thc people to increase in every way
possible, the enjoyment and pleasure
of the American visitors, who came,
he said, as historic friends of the
Japanese nation. Thc . response to
this imperial mandate was seen and
heard at night.
Originally a torchlight procession
of .15,000 people was planned as part
of the day's programme, but this
feature went far beyond expectations
?and developed into a great popular
demonstration. Japan's war celebra
tions after peace with Russia, ' ??Lon
don's Mafeking Night," and even
New York's election night revel
would seem almost insignificant com
pared with Tokio 's celebration.
: Mile after mile through madly
cheering people, the great procession
wound its way. Representatives of
various guilds, universities, schools
of every class for boys and other
organizations took part, each individ
ual carrying a lighted dantern held
high on a long pole with American
and Japanese flags interwound.
Admiral Sperry and the other chief
officers of the American fleet viewed
the procession from a special grand
stand, standing with bared heads
above the sea of waving lantors,
the deafening roar of cheers and ihe
clash of the music from scores of
bands which played thc American
national hymn continuously. So
I dense became the crowds around tue
stand that the entire procession was
blocked until Admiral Sperry was
forced to leave in order to keep an
engagement at the dinner given by
Minister of Foreign Affairs Komura.
Again at the American embassy
the great procession halted and the
climax of the enthusiasm was reach
ed. When the head of the procession
arrived at the embassy and_. halted
I Mrs. O'Brien and the other lt,
the'embassy appeared upon,
xr.nda and received, a prolong
tion from the crowds, every man
boy among \ha paraders liftin;
hat-. to the ladies, while there
continuous shouts for the Am'
ambassador, who had also left
tend the dinner.
The entire grounds surround'
embassy were lighted with a ...
lanterns and the demonstration last
j ed for two hours. Every band in
Tokio turned out for the parade and
their favorite airs were "Yankee
Doodle" "Dixie," and "John
Brow."
Thousands of the paraders were
fantastic costumes characteristic of
Japanese celebrations.
Every foreigner in Tokio was deep
ly impressed by the night's remarks
able demonstration, coming as it did
from an ordinary undemonstrative
people.
The entire day was taken up by a
series of ch?rate entertainments to
Admiral Sperry and the other ad
mirals of the American fleet and
their aides.

Quinten Rankin, both prominent at
torneys of Trenton, Tenn., were tak
en from Ward's Hotel at Walnut Log
Tenn., fifteen miles from here-Tues-,
day night by masked "night-riders"
and 1 was murdered. Capt. Rankin 's
body was found Tuesday morning
riddled with bullets and hanging
from a tree one mile from the hotel.
Tiptonville, Tenn., Special.-Un
harmed, save numerous scratches re
ceived in a thirty-hour trip through
unfamiliar woods and the fatigue in
cident to the trip without food and
Che mental strain, Col. R. Zachary
Taylor reached here' after a miracu
lous escape from the night-riders at
Reel Foot Lake, who mudered his
partner, Captain Quinten Rankin.
His own story of his experiences
was told by him as follows*- "Mon
day night last Captain Rankin and
I rent to Reel Foot Lake in re
sponse to a letter from a Mr. Carpen
ter of Union City, who wanted to
lease some timber lands. On our ar
rival at the lake we went to the Log
House, or Wc rd Hotel, and early af
ter supper retired. Some time dur
ing the night we were aroused bj
some one knocking at our door, and
on opening the door a mob of mask
ed men was found standin? in the
hall. Wc were ordered to dress, and
as the leader of the mob said he
wanted to, talk to us, we put on oui
clothes and accompnied the men to
the back of the lake some distance
from the hotel.
"The leader of the mob talked
with us telling us we were associat
ing too much with Judge Harris aud
were taking entirely too much inter
est in the lake. He said that thc
course of Harris and the West Ten
nessee'Land Company in prohibiting
free fishing was causing the starva
tion of women and children, and that
something had to be done.
"I never dreamed that the mob in
tended us any harm, but just then the
mob threw a rope around Captain
Rankin's neck and swung him to a
limb. He protested and said: 'Gen
tlemen, do not kill me,'' and the reply
of the mob was a volley of 50 shots.
"This was the first evidence of any
;?*ontion to harm us and when the
* ?.*-- ? rta von.
went tu au ^.?...v?_
remained all day Tuesday. At mn m
I started out 'and walked all ni?ht,
coming up>to a huse at 6 o'clock
Wednesday morning."
Governor Directe Search.
Union City, Tenn., Special.-Gov
ernor Patterson, who arrived here
Wednesday night, bepran early Thurs
day to direct operations' toward ap
prehension of those concerned in the
murder of Captain Rankin at Reel
Foot Lake. One hundred and fiftv
militiamen, under command of Col.
W. C. Tatom, arrived and were dis
tributed throughout the district.
Posses started from this city tc
search for Colonel Taylor.
Governor Patterson gave out the
following statement before ,it was
learned that Colonel Taylor had not
been killed:
"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 military should be the last
resort of a State governed" by law but
the time has now come when it is my
duty as Governor to use all the pow
er at my command to restore order
in the region where these assassina
tions have occurred and to assist the
courts in the apprehension and pun
ishment of the perpetrators. It must
be taken by all as a purpose deliber
ately formed and I hope no man or
body of men anywhere in the State
will fail to .understand it. We have
had enough of lawless acts, of
thefts', intimidation and other meth
ods of terrorizing citizens and com
munities. These should ".be stopped
and must, be stopped, or the conse
quences will have to be accepted.
For the present I have left th* cam
paign for the Governorship, believ
ing the upholding of law and order
in our State is of more importance
than political discussion."
