THE POWERS TRIAL.

Georgetown, Ky, July 27 - There
we're several features in the evidence
in the Powers trial Thursday. Con-
stable Davis IIarrod. of Frankfort, who
entered the legislative building a min
ute or two after the shooting of Goebel,
testified that he saw n man whose de-
scription tailed with that of loutsey,
close the door of the office of the
secretary of state behind him and run
down the basement steps.
w. II. Wagner, of Williamsburg, the
home of Charles Finley, who arrived
in Frankfort with the mountain men
January 25, and spent much of his time
between that time and the day of the
assassination in Powers office, gave
damaging testimony against both Pow
ers and Youtsey. He said that on Fri
day preceding the assassination sew
eral parties were in Powers Office dis
cussing ways and means Of defeating
Goebel before the legislature. and one
man in the party said: Somebody
ought to kill the d-n rascal" Another
replied: II have made up my mind
TO do that myself" The witness said
he did not know either of the men
talking at that time, but he had seen
Youtsey recently and was almost posi-

London, July 26.-Mr. Conger's letter,
the substance of which has been trans
rnitted to the United States secretary
of the navy, through Capt. Thomas. of
the United States cruiser Brooklyn, has
increased the belief in London that
there is no hope for the foreign lega-
lions in Picking, and that the elaborate
fabric of the dispatches which the Chi
nese are building 10 persuade the civil
lied world that the ministers are still
alive is only intended TO enable them
to gain time to complete preparations
for warfare. The Shanghai correspond
ent of the Daily Mail asserts that a
Chinaman who was employed at the
British legation as writer and inter-
prefer has escaped from Picking to Niu
Chwang and that he declares that at
the time he left Picking most of the
members OF the legations were dead
and the conditions of the others was
hopeless. = He says that Sir Robert

PROBABLY A PROVIDENCE MAN.
Killed by a Train at Cedar Hill Yes
 terday Morning.

Killed Dy Ifdln at CeQdr f1lll 1SS-
 terday Morning.
 The remains of the man killed by a train at Cedar Hill yesterday morning are thought to be those of Philip Pat rick Murrity of 31 Westfield street, Providence. The body was badly man. gled so that Identification would prob ably be impossible even for one who had been acquainted with the man. There were, however, scattered about the track where the remains were found a number of papers which had evident ly belonged to him and from these it was considered that the mans name and address was as stated above. He was fairly well dressed and it is believed that he was a mechanic.
 The remains were discovered strewn along the track near Tin bridge about o'clock yesterday morning and the discovery was reported to Patrolman McKeon. Railroad men think that the man was walking on the tracks on the bridge and stepped from in front of one train in front of another approaching from the opposite direction. The re- mains are at Beecher & Bennett's un- dertaking establishment and no one had yet appeared last evening to identify them.
