POWERS THIRD DAY.
ssys Taylor Was Responsible for
Mounta1neers.

Georgetown, KY, August 1.-Secretary
of State Caleb Powers, on trial for al
legged completely in the shooting of Gov
Goebel, began his third day in the wit
ness box this morning. Hs was submit
ted to a rigid cross-examination regard
ing the organization of the mountaineer
army. He said that Taylor and himself
were the primary spirits in getting it
up. The military companies were
brought along, he said, because they had
some discipline and could be more easily
controlled. Moreover, he says, they
were already armed. The witness said
he had urged Gov. Taylor while the con-
test board was sitting, to call out the
military companies and to send the bulk
of the other mountain people home and
had secured partial promise from the
governor to do it. This was to be done
in order that they might hold possession
of the state offices till the supreme Court
of the United States has passed on the
merits of the case.
The witness cOntradicted the Statement
of Banker John A. Black, who sWOre
that Powers, in discussing the noun
taineer excursion to frankfort, referred
to it as mob Powers says Black so
referred to it but that he told Black he
would do all he could to keep it from
degenerattng into an organization of that
character.
Rev. John Stamper, brother-in-law of
Wharton Golden, and whose testimony the
defence hopes to contradict, created some
thing of a sensation on cross examination
by admitting that he sought to get Gold
en- to leave the state and indirectly
offered 5000.
1t is reported today that ex- Governor
Taylor is resented at the trial by
counsel who are keeDino I'D with the
evidence as it bears on Taylor's case.
WITNESS CHARGED WITH PERJURY
Georgetown, Ky, August L. George e.
Weaver the witness who in testifying
against former Secretary OF State Powers
claiming to hail from Colorado and who
asserted that he saw gun protruding
from the window Of the Office of the Sec
rotary of state at the time GoebeI was as
sassinated was arrested today on a war
rant charging him with perjury, sworn
out by the attorneys for the defense, de-
claring that they learned that Weaver
was not in Frankfort on the day OF the
assassination and that he visited Frank
fort last Saturday for the first time.

Conditions Imposed Not
To Be Considered.
Meanwhile No Change in Mill
tary Programme

Washington, August 1.-The Chinese
imperial government is putting forth the
most powerful efforts to secure through
negotiation the Abandonment of the in
ternationaI movement on Pekin. The
cablegrams received at the State Depart
ment today from Earl Ii Hung Chang all
tend to demonstrate his desire to secure
the succor of the ministers at Pekin and
their delivery at lien Tsin if this can be
safely effected, trusting that in return
the international column can be halted.
PROFESSIONALLY proper assurance Of
the safe delivery Of the ministers would
have some effect upon the temper of the
powers and it is possible that the United
States government would give ear to
overtures in that irectiOn, were not the
attempt made by the Chinese to impose
conditions upon the delivery shat are al
together objectionable Such for in
stance, is a stipulation that the Chinese
imperial authorities shall be absolved IN
advance from the consequences of the at
tempt and for liability for what has
taken place in Pekin.
The first stipulation might be regarded
as direct Invitation to the Boxers to
murder the ministers on their way to the
coast, and therefore our government will
leave it to Mr.. Conger himself whether or
not he regards it as safe to leave Pekin
when the opportunity is held out.
Meanw lille, there has been no change
as to the military programme, so far as
our government is advised. The senior
United States naval officer at Taku is al
ready under the most positive instruc-
lions to urge a forward movement, these
having been sent by Secretary Long just
after the receipt of the original Conger
message, and he was advised also OF THE
intention of the COVER nment to add to his
force. These matters are referred to il
the belated despatch from lien Tsin
which touches upon the military situa.
ton and the prospects of a speedy for
ward movement. But no additional in
structions on this point were sent to tn
United States army officers today and tn
government is allowing It's officers on tn
spot to shape their own campaign, rely
ing particularly upon the full and com
prehensive instructions previously 9iveI
to Gen, Chaffee both in person and b.
cable upon his arrival at Nagasaki
Secretary Root said today that there ma
been no developments in the diplomat
situation which would delay the advanc
on Pekin, and that Gen. Chaffee had OF
ders to cover any contingency who
might arise A statement has been mad
in the dispatches from Europe to th
effect that the United States is pushin
Gen. Chaffee for commander in chief.
was said at the war department tOda

such as to make it necessary for him t

ONE Way 10 STOP ADVANCE.

Washington, August 1.-The safety of
the ministers at Pekin being temporarily
assured, the attention of the government
is now being directed toward two Objects
first, to effect the permanent safety
of the ministers by bringing them away
from Pekin, and, second, to hasten the
advance on the Chinese capital.
The Chinese goverpent is employing
every device automatically to prevent
the forward movement of the interna.
tionaI column. Ii Hung Chang is the
main reliance to encompass this purpose,
but he is hampered by the obtuseness of
the Pekin officials.
Our government is willing to render
such assistance as it properly can, but it
must be upon the terms alrea ly laid
down. 1t is said here that the one pos
sible means of stopping the forward
movement of the column within the
reach OF the Chinese government, is a n
instant compliance with the first Of the
demands Of the powers, namely, that the
ministers be put in free communication
with their governments.

SINKING OF EMBLETON.
Court Asks How Campania's Speed Can
Be Explained.

London, August I'm the Admiralty
court today testimony was taken in the
matter OF the sinking of the bark Emble-
ton by the Cunard liner Campania dur
ing fog, July 81, which resulted in the
drowning of IL members of the Emble-
ton S crew.
The defendants witnesses testified that
the Campania was making from nine TO
ten knots.
Mr.. Justice Barnes asking what the de-
fence would be, said ''But what about
your speed, you plead nine or ten knots
and you cannot see much more than a
ships length. Is it to be justified?'
The Cunard S counsel said he preferred
not to commit himself at this stage OF the
case. The hearing was then adjourned.
