Disclosures are predicted for to-morrow which will show that Rnfug Cantrell and his gang, now In custody, are not the only ghouls that Save been robbing graves In ami arennd Indianapolis to supply tbe medical colleges of this city and other colleges In the West. Cantrell acknowledges that other gangs of grave robbers make Indianapolis their headquarters, and that already robberies have been discovered which were committed by these other parties. Two white men find one negro make Indianapolis their headquarters, and con-line their robbing to graveyards and cemeteries between this cltv and Marlon. Hardly city or town in tbe gss belt baa escaped the depredations of these grave rohlKrs.

This is an admission of Cantrell, and he sirs that local colleges have procured a number of hmlies from these partita, but he refused to divulge thelf names.

The-majority of the bodies stolen by these giiouls are shipped to Louisville and to medical colleges In that cltv. A few, Cantrell iayr, re shipped to Cincinnati.
