SECRETARY POWERS HELD
Judge Moore Binds nd Him Over to the
Grand Jury--More Arrests
Are Made.

Frankfort, KY. March 29.-Immedi-
ately after the opening of the trial of
Secretary of State Powers this morn
ing Governor Brown, for the defense,
announced that no testimony would
be introduced for the defense and
they waived further examination. The
pardon issued Powers by Governor
Taylor, contendcd Ex-Governor Brown,
was bar to prosecution and he asked
that defendant be dismissed. Colonel
MED Taylor's right to issue a pardon
at the time the pardon was granted.
Brown moved that the prisoner be
dismissed upon the evidence. The mo-
ton was overruled. Bail was asked
for. Judge Moore said: ut is not my
belief that Powers fired the shot
which killed Goebel. From the evil
dcnce, in my opinion, he was connect
ed with the conspiracy to kill him. I
shall therefore order that he be held
over without bail to the Franklin
county grand jury that the case may
be further investigated"
Court then adjourned until
O'Clock.
AT so this morning Detective Dee
Armstrong arrested III. T.. Youtzey, re-
publican Auditor Sweeny's private
secretary, as the man with the black
mustache whom Golden mentioned in
his testimony as the man John Powers
gave the key to the office of Caleb
Powers. Youtzey is a half brother OF
Hon. j. T.. Crawford, prominent re-
publican of Newport. The warrant
charges him with being accessory be-
fore the fact to the murder of Goebcl.

COloninlists.
Ladysmith, March a. delayed by
/. Censor -Bitter complaints are heard
throughout the colonial government It's
at the lenient treatment apparently
proposed for the rebels. The ridicnlc
with which Lord Molverton's speech
has been received in London has given
satisfaction in Natal, in spite of feel
ings of loyal colonists, who have
fought SO gallantly for the empire.
earnestly hope and urge that gener-
Gus and forgiving policy be followed.
III military operations are prosecuted
furiously and tirelcssly there will be
neither necessity nor excuses for Civ
ing the rebels who surrender lesson.
The wise and right course is to beat
down all who resist, even to the last
man, but not to withhold forgivene IS
and even friendship from any who
wish to surrender. The Dutch farm
'crs who have joined the enemy are
only traitors in a legal sense that
they obeyed a natural instinct of their
blood to join men of their own race.
Although no Justification is an
excuse, certainly their conduct is
t tfss N mfoT2y repre chen than
liltb vi HSllSnmen VINO are regular
burghers of the republics and who are
fighting fiercely as proper belliger-
ents against their own countrymen.
Yet even these latter would deserve
some tolerance where they are not
legally protected by their citizenship.
The Dutch traitor is less black than
The renegade Dritish-born burgher,
but both are the results of our own
mistakes and crimes in Africa in for
mer years. On purely practical
grounds it is most important to'differ-
entiate between rebels who want to
surrender and rebels who are caught
/ fighting. All influence should be
brought to bear to weaken the enemy
and make him submit. On the one
hand are mighty arms advancing ire
sistibly, staying and shifting with all
the fearful engines of war; on the
other hand, the quiet farm life with
wife and children safe under the pro-
lection of a government as merciful as
it is strong. The policy which will
hold these two pictures even before
the rise of republican soldiers is truly
thorough and therein lies the short
Test road to peace with honor.

ANGEREO BY ACTION

Dcs Moincs, Ia, March 26.-A special
from Washington says:
he news that he Iowa house had

bonbshell among Iowa congressman.
Speaker Henderson was enraged when
inc news was taken 10 him by Il rcpol.-

Iowa does or says ON the Puerto Rico
tariff bill. We have our views here
just the same as they have, and what
they think about it will have no effect
ON the measure in the house There
arc things the legislature of Iowa does
not know much about, and this is one
OF them. We are going ahead ON ll,c
lines we have mapped out legislature

BITTER AGAINST CAPE coLoNls1s
Beers Expected u General Rising
Against British.

Durham, March 2g.-William Cox,
the newspaper correspondent, who
was released from imprisonment at
Pretoria, has arrived here. He adds
his testimony to the stories of good
treatment of prisoners by the Trans
vaal authorities, though subordinates
sometimes subjected captives to am
hoyances. Cox say Secretary Reitz
and says he is evidently worried at the
turn of events. Prominent persons
at the Transvaal capital bitterly ac-
cuse Hofmeyer, Afrikander leader,
and Premier Schreiner of deserving
them. They say they expected 100000
Cape Colonists to join the republics.
Joubert is apparently suspected of
half-heartedness and Cox gathered
that his life will be in danger at the
hands of irate burghers if Pretoria is
besieged. At Delagoa bay Cox saw a
we'll known Transvaal secret service
agent purchasing and forwarding all
kinds of goods to the Transyaal.
