IGOOD HOPE FOR POWERS

Strengthens His CaseEvidence Tends to Incriminate

Youtsey

The week In tho Twois COM hasboon glvon up to witness to provePowers fctbrr and a few to disproveYouUttys There has been oonsldwablevidence to show that Youtsey tolddifferent stories outside from those hohas told on the witness stand Also Itbaa been shown that bs made threats I

against Goebel and said that If no ono

else oould be round to kill him hewould do It himself

In almost ertry bit of evidence giventhere has been hopo for Powers Thetestimony given has gone a long way I

towards exonerating the prisoner andIprlnelIIIIThe story gun suppoe ¬

have done the killing has beenfully told and Is about what Tho CltlIzen outlined a week ago Albert Hoi1ton from whom Grant L Roberts theowner of Ute rifle said he got It lastwinter testified that he went Into thestate house after the shooting and sawa number of men trying to break downtho door of an office Ono of themhe says gave him the rifle He was un ¬

able to find tho owner and so tookJaItorstool bullets Ho was not sure whogave him tho rifle but had been toldthat It was Youtsey There was no ex-ploded shell In the gun when ho got It

Another piece of strong testimonyagainst Youtsoy was that of ReubenR Mlllor who said that ho saw Yout ¬

sey open a window and point a rifleout of It and squat beside It for sometime When asked what was up ho an ¬

swered It Is on and nothing more I

It was expected that Jim Howardwould take the stand on Tuesday orWednesday of this week The defenceIs no well satisfied with tho waythings aro going that It has announc ¬

ed that It will not need lotI the wit ¬

nesses It has summoned and many ofthem havo gone home Both the pris ¬

onor and tho Jury are In such a hur¬

ry to get tho trial over that they pet1Itioncd the judge to hold court onChristmas day and thin will be done

Thero seems to have been an at¬

tempt by somo of the newspaper menIn Georgetown to spread misleadingstories about tho trial and ono of themwas fined 20 last week He hadtwisted things In favor of Powers andwhen called to tho stand admittedthat ho had no basis for hU story It istoo bad that things like this shouldhappen All that can or should beasked for Powers la a fair trIal whichhe has not had yet and no matterhow untruthful reports havo beenpublished about him It will not helpIn any way but will do tho greatestharm to tell lies that will makethings seem better for him It is al-

ways a mighty good plan to let theother side do tho lyIngthey are sureto get caught sooner or later I

TOBACCO PEACE NEAR

Gov Willson Scores a Victory In Con ¬

ference Trust May Buy FromPool

Gov WHUon has scored his firstgroat vletory In bringing together thetobacco grocers and the trust Thomeeting which ho called In Frankfurtlato last week resulted In a better undorstaudlug and may lead to an endof the troubles As a result t fIt tho tobacco buyers agreed to go toWinchester and look at the pooled tobasso with a view to buying and Infew weeks 0000000 of the trustsmoney may be on its Way to Kentuckyfarmers

Ono of tho features of the meotliiiwas a wild speech by Judgo ORear Inwhich he said that the sending of

droops to Hopklnsvlllo was uncalledfor and defended the lawlessness andOovysoon ¬

lessly rebuked the judge and an-

nounced¬

again that ovary thing he

orderlInconference wcro from the sectionaround Hopklnsvllle and It Is fearedthat at that point there will still be agreat deal of trouble unless the Cloy ¬

ernor gives protection as he doubtlesswill do-

outside complication has beenbrought Into tho case by tho fact thatthe Italian government which controlsthe sale ot tobacco In its territorieshad about 12000 worth ot tobaccoburned at Hopklnsvllle Italy has de¬

manded of this government Indemnityfor the burned tobacco and SecretaryRoot has written to GOY Willson de-

In spite of this Secretary Taft thePresidents choice has gained strengtha great deal since he got home lastFriday Just how this has happenedhas not always been clear but he Ismuch farther ahead than he was sweek ago This Is partly due to thefast that Gov Hughes of New Yorkgot a bad set back A meeting of thestate committee was hold at which hisfriends announced they were going toham a vote endorsing him Butwhen the committee met the motionfor such a vote was put over tilt thenext meeting which will be In abouta month It may win then but evenIf It does ho will have been put be¬

the men who are supporting him arothe very ones that the people moatfear the trust officials who havebeen the cause of the present panicand Odoll a former Republican bossof New York state who was thrownout ot his place because of chargesof corruption This and the fact thatthere Is so much money to be usedagainst the President has hurt hisboom a great deal
