LIFE SENTENCE
GIVEN YOUTSEY.
Sentenced by Judge Cantrill-he Pro.
tests His Innocence.
STATEMENT BY YouTsErs ATTORNEYS.


2 :15 o. clock this afternoon Judge
Cantrill ordered Jailer Reed to
bring Henry Youtsey into
his presence. In a few minutes
the young prisoner, accompanied
by his wife and by Miss Payne
and Miss Grissom, of George
town, relatives of Mrs. Youtsey,
entered the courtroom. Youtsey
was pale and thin, but seemed at
his ease.
''Mr. Sheriff, bring in the pris-
oner," said his honor.
Slowly Youtsey entered. His
wife, with tense drawn lines in
her face, took q seat just beyond
him. His attorneys remained in
the doorway of the jury room.
"Youtsey stand up," said
Judge Cantrill.
Silently the prisoner arose. He
was very pale. Briefly Judge
Cantrill outlined the progress of
the case from the time of the in
dictment until the returning of
the verdict.
"Now," continued the Judge,
shave you any reason to give
why sentence should not be pro-
nounced upon your"
Youtsey shifted his position
ever so slightly and cleared his
throat. One hand clntched the
lapel Of his coat, the other rested
upon the table. The courtroom
was perfectly quiet. In a low,
but audible, tone, Youtsey spoke
these words:
81 have nothing 70 say, except
that l am innocent, and that my
conviction was accomplished only
by base and infamous suborna-
tion of perjury
Then he quietly sat down.
For a moment no one spoke.
"That was q subject which
should have addressed itself to
the jury which convicted you,"
answered the Judge.
''It is the judgment of this
court that you be removed by
the Sheriff of Scott county to the
State penitentiary at Frankfort
and there confined at hard labor
for the period Of your natural
life." -
Then after q short pause he
said: ''Mr. Jailer, return the
prisoner to jail"
YOUTsEy's COUNSEL MAKES STATE
MKNT.
Georgetown, KY, Feb. 5.-Mr.
Stephenson, of counsel for Yout-
sey, gave out this explanatory
statement:
""One hundred and twenty-five
jurors have thus far been sum-
moned to try Henry Youtsey. OF
these 124 were Goebel Democrats.
The trial jury consisted Of twelve
Goebel Democrats. Our most
earnest efforts and protests were
powerless to obtain less partial
jury. Under the conditions which
prevail, we cherish no hope OF
ever securing an impartial jury.
'The public has obtained an
inkling of how perjury was pro-
cured and used in these trials,
without the knowledge of the
Judge or Commemorative Attor.
ney. New perjurers can, and We
are convinced will, be found and
thus used in future trials.
"The immense reward fund at
tracts perjurers and suborners OF
perjury as the flame attracts the
moth.
"Our client was unable to re-
alize these conditions and retain
his strength or reason, and we
have no hope that he could do so
upon another such trial.
"We entertain no doubt but
that 'e could secure a reversal
' of th verdict. His helDless con-

somewhere along the lines OF
the Western Union Telegraph
Company between Lexington and
darlington, two ciphers were lost
and these lost figures caused THE
BEE to make erroneous statement
as to the coal output of Ohio and
Muhlenberg counties for 1900,
in our last issue. The following
letter from State Inspector g.
W. Stone is explanatory:
LEXINGTON, KY, Feb. l. 1901
THE BEE,
Darlington, KY.
DEAR SIR:-My telegram given
the operator here relative to the out
put of Muhlenberg and Ohio was
about 10000 mot 2,OOO) gain in Ohio,
and about 10000 (not l,000) loss in
Muhlenberg, but suppose that the
company sent it wrong. 1 suppose
also you got my letter of next day,
explaining the matter. wish you
would correct the matter in yopr
next issue. still lack reports for
December from three mines in Muh-
lenDerg, but think will get them
the first of the week.
Yours truly
g. w. STONE.
Having now a letter from Mr..
Stone giving the exact figures
THR BEE gives below the Of
fetal statement as to the 1900
coal production for Hopkins
and Ohio counties and the ap-
proximate output Of Mullen
berg.
THE BEES article Of last week
stated a gain OF about 1900 tons
in Ohio, county output Of 1900
over that Of 1899. This should
have been 20, 600 tons gain. The
loss Of Muhlenberg county out
put of 1900 as compared with
1899 was stated at abont 1000
tons. This should have been a
loss of 10000 tons. The telegram
was in figures and some operator
dropped cipher from each which
caused the errors in THE BEES
statement.
In order to make the state
ment now exact and official we
publish in full Mr.. Stones letter
written the day after he had
wired THE BEE in answer to our
request for information. This
letter is as follows:
LEXINGTON, KY,
Jan. 80, 1901.
Mr.. Paul Nj. Moore:
MY DEAR SIR:-I telegraphed you
last night from memory, however,
practically correct. The exact fig
ures are:
Hopkins-l9OO, tons. 1853, 1896
1899, '...- l, ,265, ,706,66
---
Gain--l9O0-tons. ~ Ss,033.80
Ohio-l9OO. 9OO................. 585, ,899.sS
1899. ................. 5,S67 90
Gain-l900-tons. ...... l9,S32.SS
Three mines in Muhlenburg have
not reported for December; and, es-
timating IL ese, the loss in 1900 as
compared to 1899, will be about TO-
900 tons. The loss comes from two
causes: First, the strike in April
reduced the county's output from
6O,767.57 tons in March, to only
4297.4S tons in April, But for the
strike In April estimated an output
that month of 10000 tons.

Joke ON the old Man.

A young man threaded his way slowly
among the Chestnut street crowds on
yesterday afternoon, says the Philadel-
phia Record. He was tall and well built
and wore silk hat, frock coat. patent
leather boots, gray gloves and a gray
cravat. 1t was not his really elegant
costume, however, that caused so many
persons to look al him and smile. 1t was
the white card, pinned on the back of his
coat between the shoulders, that read:
Kick me- An aged philanthropist, with
long white whiskers overlook the young
man and detached the card. Here, sir -
he saie, holding it out to the youth, some
