COL. SCOTT REITER RATES THE SEN
SATIONAL STATEMENT MADE
AT WINCHESTER
FEELS GREATLY AGGRIEvED
Has Not Been and VIII Not Be En-
gagged to Prosecute YOutzey-
Declares He Made State
ment as to Mr.. Taylor.

FRANKFORT, KY, March 3O.-In ref
erence to the report that he proposed
to give Henry Youtzey, secretary to
AUDITOR Sweeney, a part of the 500, 900
reward If Youtzey would confess what
he knew about the GoebeI assassination
Col. James Andrews Scott gave out the
following tonight:
My hands are tied and I cannot talk
for fear Of seeming to betray the con-
hdence of friends The statement that
Youtzey made to me was that of a
client to attorney. He came to me and
invited me to the rear room of my Of
flee and besought me to go to Winches-
ter and see his brother-in-law. At the
close Of our interview, which lasted ex-
actly two hours, L had only time to
catch a train. No human soul except
my wife knew where 1 was going.
went to Winchester where, at the solicit
tation Of this brother-in-law and after
solemn promise to secrecy, I revealed to
him all that YoutZey had told me- as
Youtzey had required me to do. What
this was no mortal will ever know from
me. He did say before he asked me
to act as his attorney that if he told
what he knew 1T would cause an explo-
sion that would blow the Republican
party out of existence and hang Taylor.
and that he would become an outcast,
with every mans hand against him.
with no chance to earn a living, and
that on that account he ought to share
in the reward.
II have never been interested, direct
ly or indirectly, in any reward. / have
refused employment with promises of
fees in the case of two defendants AS
I told Mr.. Youtzey's brother-inlaw. in
the presence of Mr.. Crawford, 1 believe
there Is more in this life than money,
and more happiness In the possession OF
my self-respect than in the possession
Of mere money; that I considered the
assassination of Gov. Goebel a blow at
the very vitals of the state, and to pos
terity. There had not yet been money
enough coined to secure my services in
case so infamous.
81 have not been employed in the pros
ecution. In the absence of both the
county attorney and the commonwea' this
attorney L was requested by Mr.. Justus
Goebel to investigate the case OF Mr..
Taul, and did so, and advised his re-
lease.
81 could not be induced to take fee
to prosecute Youtzey after what has
passed between US. He is my youngest
sons most intimate friend and compan-
ion. I respect that friendship and sin
cerely hope that 1t will turn out that he
is more sinned against than SHINING"

None of That 100000 to Be Paid
for Confessions.
FRANKFORT, Ky, March ok
Chief Justice James H. Lewis, chairman
of the committee selected by the legisla-
ture to have charge of the Goebel re-
ward fund, today made the following
statement concerning the story sent out
from Winchester yesterday that Attor-
ney James Andrew Scott had proposed
to the relatives of II. E. Youtsey to give
him a portion of the reward money for a
confession of the details of the con-
spiracy to assassinate Gov. Goebe
'The money appropriated by the leg
islature," said he, "to be used in run
ming down the assassins of Gov. Goebel
and bringing them to justice will be dis
tributed as provided at the first meet
ing of the reward committee, so much
for the assassin and SO much for the
conviction of each accessory.
1.-THE preliminary work Is in the hands
of Commonwealth's Attorney Franklin,
and no private citizen has authority
from Mr.. Franklin or from the commit
tee to offer rewards for confessions of
alleged accessories. Not cent of the
coo has yet been spent, and I think
you can safely say that not dollar of
1t will be paid for confessions"

MONEY ron A LIBRARY.
City OF Albert Lea tn Raise Fund by
One Mil Tax


ALBERT LEA. Mimi, March 30-(Spe-
cial)-In accordance with the petition
the council has submitted the PROPOSE
ton of levying a tax of one mill for
public library, and 1t will be voted upon
next Tuesday. All women Of twenty-one
or over being qualified to vote upon the
question and they being unanimously In
favor of It, there seems to he no doubt
about it's being carried by the requisite
two-thirds vote Last year II only lacked
a few votes, and many who then opposed
to it, through a misrepresentation, now are
warm supporters of 1t. An 'hold-over city
officials as well as candidates for city Of
fees have declared in favor OF the one
mill tax levy and no opposition will be
exerted from that direction. There Is no
intention OF establishing the library in
the present or new city hall. Such a
building, with its city Jail, fire depart
ment, police courts and city offices, Is no
place for library, and besides, 1t is like
ly to be several years before Albert Lea
can afford to erect a city hall suitable to
its needs. The present library with its
1900 volumes is to be donated free to the
city by the existing association, without
conditions. and 1t Will become city prop
erty, for the free use and benefit of all
the people, as are the privileges of the
city schools.

Proprietor of Hitchcock, s. D., Bank
Trying to Raise Money.

HURON, S. D., March 3O-(speciaI. y
The burning and robbery of the ETHEREAL
wilson bank at Hitchcock, twenty miles
north Of this city, nearly month ago,
IS as much Of mystery today as when
II occurred. The safe was robbed Of near
ly $4,000, two-thirds of which belonged
to depositors, some Of whom are becom-
ing anxious about their money. Mr.
Wilson assured them that he would be
able to make good their deposits in
few days and he is in Ohio trying to raise
money on property there with which TO
meet these obligations. The people Of the
village have abiding faith in Mr. Wilson,
and believe he will keep faith with them.
What was supposed to be clues to the
perpetrators of the crime have failed and
there now seems little probability of ap-
pretending the guilty parties.

DRAMATIC TERMINATION OF The
TRIAL OF MISS HORLOCKER
AT HASTINGS
PRONOUNCED NOT GUILTY
Young Woman Shrieked and Faint
ed as the Verdict Was An
nOunced by the Fore
man of the Jury.

HASTINGS, Neb., March aO-It took
the lawyers several days to try the Hor-
locker poisoning case, but the jury only
required an hour and ten minutes TO get
back into the court room with a verdict
after the case was submitted to them at
1890 this forenoon.
County Attorney McCreary concluded
his argument. and Judge Adams instruct
ed the jury at considerable length.
When the defendant was summoned to
the court to hear the verdict, abe was
accompanied by her two sisters. All three
were evidently decidedly anxious, but the
accused was the least affected of the
three. She was fairly we'll composed,
while her sisters sat wringing their hands
as the jury filed in.
There was a crowd in the court room
when the judge asked the foreman of
the jury II they had agreed upon a GER
dict, and as the paper was handed up
there was a silence so deep that it was
oppressive.
SHRIEKED AND TAINTED.
AS the Jury proceeded with the read
ing Of the verdict and pronounced the
words mot guilty" Viola Horlocker
arose, uttered piercing shrek and fell
back In faint
Her sisters, who had been greatly agi-
tated before, with the assistance Of others
in the court room, revived her. and as
soon as she was able Miss Horlocker
made her way to the jury box and thank
ed each one Of the Jurymen. The whole
scene was a most dramatic one, and there
were many down whose cheeks the teaEN
trickled
After the usual preliminarles the de-
PENDANT was discharged from custody,
and went to the home of her sister.
Now that the strain OF the trial Is re-
Taxed 1t is announced that she Is COM
