Goebei Assassination Case Gives Fur
Their Testimony Frankfort

Frankfort, KY, March 27.-The trial
of Republican Secretary Of State Caleb
Powers, charged with being an ac-
cessQry to the murder of Gov. Goe-
bel, was resumed Monday. Wharton
Golden, one of the prosecutions star
witnesses, who finished his direct ex-
animation Saturday but was taken
sick and unable to be cross-examined,

not in the court room and a deputy
sheriff was sent to the hotel after
him. Court convened at one o'clock
and Golden was placed on the stand
and the cross-examination COM
menced, with ex-Gov. Brown interro-
eating the witness. Golden said he
learned about two weeks ago that he
would be arrested if he did not tell
what he knew about the assassination
and if he did the attorneys for the
commonwealth would try and save
him from prosecution. Golden said he
told Judge Fleming, of Winchester,
that he intended to tell all he knew
about the affair. While he was in
Winchester. he said he was stopped
by two men, DIR. Foster and William
Steele, who grabbed him by the arms
anu cursed MIN LOT exposing the re-
publican party. Golden replied that
he had not exposed the party. The
witness said that when he heard on
his way to Louisville, with Powers,
that Gov. Goebel had been shot, he
told Powers what had happened and
Powers said that it was dirty shame
and outrage. Golden said ne could
not remember that he ever heard Pow
ers say that he intended to harm any
one. Dick Coombs, the alleged assas-
sin, was brought to Frankfort, he
said, by William Cu1ton, one of the
defendants. Culton told him that he
had brought him (Coombs) down.

WANTS IT ALL TOLD.
Senator Allen Insists That Complete Sta
tistics of Casualties in the Philip
pinos BE Given the Public.

Washington, March ga resolu-
ton offered in the senate by Mr..
Allen (Neb.) was taken up Monday.
1t called upon the secretary OF war for
the number of soldiers who have been
killed or have died in the Philippines
since August 1, 1898; the number who
have died of disease; the number who
have been wounded; the number who
have committed suicide, and all other
similar information in possession of
the war department..
Mr.. Allen supported the resolution
IN brief speech after Mr.. GalIinger
had suggested that it ought to go
to the committee on military affairs.
Mr.. Gallinger intimated that the reso-
luton would have the effect of dis
couraging enlistments in the United
States army. Mr.. Allen declared that
to send the resolution to the commit
tee on military affairs was to destroy
and smother it," He said that owing
to the climatic and other conditions in
the Philippines an American army
could not remain there for two years
He was credibly informed, he said,
that the whole American army would
have to be withdrawn within a few
months. He said that illness and sui
eide among the troops were on the in
crease. He believed that the Ameri-
can people were entitled to the facts.
He was prepared, he said, to go so far
as to advise men not to enlist for
duty in the Philippines.
Mr.. Hawley, chairman of the COM
mittee on military affairs, was in
clined to think the inquiry ought to
be made, the statistics from the Phil
ippines being placed side by side with
similar statistics in the wars of other
nations. He believed Mr.. Allen would
be disappointed in the result of his
inquiry. In order that the resolution
might be amended it was on his mo-
ton referred to the committee on
military affairs.

Washington, March 27.-Goy. Steun-
enberg's cross-examination continued
Monday in the Occur d'Alene investi-
CATION before the house committee on
military affairs. The witness said
there had been a continuous state of
rebellion in the Occur d'Alene dis
trict, and while it did not take on
the form of armed resistance, there
was at all times opposition 10 the
policy of the state authorities an eff
fort to thwart them, and to bring a
renewal of the old condition of az
fairs. Mr.. Sulzer pressed for a speci-
fication of names and events in this
disorder but the governor said il was
general in character and specific out
breaks were likely to occur while the
authorities continued to ac: with
frmness.
The governor said he was not in IA
vor of solitary confinement of prison
ers unless they were guilty of some in
fraction of prison rules. If such i'm :.
prisonment had occurred, he said, he
was responsible for it, although ie
did not favor it except on the condi-
tons stated. When asked if he had
conferred with the Bunker Hill Of
hcidlS anu OLneFS Win view TO
breaking up the labor organizations,
the governor said he had not. He
added that, in his judgment, the labor
organizations in Shoshone county ex-
listed only in name, their real Foley
being dominated by criminals
When asked to specify the so-called
criminals, the governor said he did
not care to give names. Gov. Steun-
enberg was asked why he did
not resort to calling on citizens to
aid the sheriff in maintaining order.
He said he did not believe the ordi-
nary civil procedure was sufficient to
deal with the situation. He was
confronted with crisis, he said, and
he acted to the best of his ability aud
Judgment to meet the crisis.

PiLiNG UP THE COSTS.
An Indiana Man Brought Suit for the Dead
Body of Dog, Valued At 81
When Alive.

indianapolis, Ind, March ga
suit involving the possession of the
body of a dead dog has been appealed
to the Indiana supreme court. The
case has already been adjudicated in
two courts and the costs are piling up
toward the thousand-dollar mark.
The appellant in the case placed
value of only 81 on the dog when it
was alive. The 1itigants are Jacob
Vantreese and Ralph Magee, farmers
and neighbors, living in Decatur
county. Magee had possession of the
dog and Vantreese claimed the owner
ship of it. The dispute led to a
bitter quarrel, in which many OF the
neighbors became involved. just as
Vantreese was preparing to sue for
the animal the dog died. But suit for
the possession of the body and 81 was
begun just the same, and although
beaten in the lower courts Vantreese
still hopes to win the case-and the
dogs carcass.

London, March 27.-The continued

planned in a dispatch from Bloom

says the conditions existing in the
occupied territory render imperative
the somewhat prolonged halt at

the effect of the proclamation should
have time to make itself felt. 1t is
declared that danger of annoyance
to the line of communication may be
apprehended unless the territory be-
hind the advancing forces is rendered
absolutely secure The accuracy of
this view is proved by the fact of
the enemy's breaking up into isolated
groups. such as that which attacked
the guards officers Friday. The ad-
justment of financial and municipal
matters in the Free State is now
chiefly occupying the attention of
the governor and his legal and finan-
cial advisers. The military regime is
being conducted with great smooth
ness, but recent Investigations show
that caution must be exercised in
dealing with persons apparently loyal.
Gen. Metheun appears to be await
ing transportation, and with Col. Plu-
mer'S forces on half rations there
now seems little likelihood of the i'm
mediate relief of Mafeking, though
neither from this quarter nor from
Lord Roberts or Butler is there any
direct news. A Lorenzo Marques spe-
cial says the Transvaal authorities are
evidently recruiting actively and large
numbers of French, Dutch and Bel
gian volunteers are constantly pass
ing through that place to join the
Boer forces.
