DRAWING TO A CLOSE.
Defense in Caleb Powers Case VIII
Rest Thursday or Friday.

Georgetown, Ky, Oct. 22.-The at
torneys for the defense in the trial of
Caleb Powers say they will close their
case by Thursday or Friday. When the
defense rests the jurors will be taken to
Frankfort to inspect the capitol build
ings and other places mentioned in the
testimony. on Saturday the argu-
ments will be heard, and it is now be-
! lieved that a verdict will be rendered
before the term of court expires Sat-
urday at midnight.
P. NJ. O'Reilly. an insurance man of
Louisville. who was In the Senate
| chamber when Goebel was shot, said
that it was his impression that the
shots We're fired directly in front of
| the state house, and not from the ex-
ecutive building.
Former State Treasurer George W.
Long said that on the morning of Jan.
30, the day Goebel was shot, he was
instructed by w. S. Taylor to go to
Louisville with Caleb Powers and Wal
ter r. Day and make arrangements to
bring men to Frankfort from Western
Kentucky. The witness said that when
Powers heard that Goebel had been
shot he said all chances for the Repub-
licans to win the contest had been
ruined.
Ed Mentz of Glasgow Junction. and
Frank Taylor of Glasgow, testified that
on Jan. 30. they received kilograms
from S. w. Long, calling them to
Louisville. and that when they reached
Louisville, Long told them he wanted
them to bring some men to Frank
fort from Western Kentucky, but the
shooting of Goebel had upset all plans,
and that the men would not be brought.
Former State Treasurer Day testi-
fed that he and Powers went to Louis
Vile on Jan. 80 to make arrangements
to bring men from Western Kentucky
to petition the Legislature.
When Caleb Powers heard that Goe-
bel had been shot Mr.. Day testified.
he said: "It Is an outrage and it will
ruin our chances to go into our offices"
A number of witnesses testified that
Powers had at all times asked his
supporters to bring only the best citi
zens to Frankfort and had at no time
counselled or spoke of violence against
Goebel or others.
George T.. Fetter of Louisville said
he was near Goebel at the time of the
shooting and that Goebel was six feet
south Of the fiagstone that marks the
place it is said Goebel was when the
shot struck him. Fetter testified that
there was a third story window in the
executive building open when Goebel
fell and that he looked at the building
but saw no rife barrel at any window.
Holland Whitaker, now under 1000
bond to answer an Indictment on the
charge of the murder of Goebel, was
then put on the stand. Whitaker de-
MED that he had ever heard a CONVEX
sation between Youtsey and Powers
relative to the Goebel murder in the
Frankfort Jail.

SIR REDVERs RELIEVED.
Rash Utternnces at Luncheon
Caused His Retirement.

London, Oct. 22.-Sir Redvers Butler
has been relieved from command of
the First Army Corps, in consequence
of the speech he made Oct. 10 after
the luncheon given in his honor by the
Kings Royal Rifles, dealing with his
famous dispatch to Gen. White at
Ladysmith. He has been placed on
half-pay and Gen. French has been
appointed to succeed him.
In the official announcement the war
office says that the commander-in-
chief, latter full consideration of all
the circumstances and the explana-
tions furnished" recommended that
Gen. Butler be relieved, which has been
done.
The appointment of Gen. French is
to take effect when HIS services are
no longer required in South Africa"
Pending Gen. French's return Gen.
Hildyard will command at Aldershot.
General Buffers supercession was not
expected, but the manner of it has
caused a sensation. 1t s understood
that the government endeavored to
break The fall by giving him the option
of resigning, but that Gen. Butler de-
clined to give way.
The morning papers all express
sympathy for the unfortunate ending
of a brilliant career, but they are unan-
imous that no other course was open
after his indiscreet speech, and they
express the greatest approval OF the
selection of Gen. French to succeed
him

HIS DOOM APPROACHES.
And Assassin CZOIGOsz Seeks the
Consolation of PriestIy Ministra-


Consolation of PriestIy Ministra-
tiOns.
Auburn, N. Y, Oct. 22.-Leon F.
Czolgosz, the assassin of President
Mckinley, who is awaiting electro
cution in the prison here during the
week commencing next Monday, fully
realizing that his death is now a ques-
ton of few days, has asked for
spiritual consolation and this afternoon
received a visit from Rev. T. Szandin-
ski, a Polish priest of the Roman
Catholic Church.
Czolgosz's request for a priest of his
own nationality was made known to
Warden Meade this morning. Father
Szandinski, who is pastor of st. Stan
islaus' Church, Rochester. was in this
city attending the forty hours de-
votions of st. Alphonsus Church and
was asked to visited the prisoner. This
afternoon he went TO the prison and re-
manned there about an hour
The interview between priest and
prisoner proved very unsatisfactory to
both. 1t took place in the condemned
mans cell and the conversation was
carried on in Polish. During the in
terview Czolgosz said that he had been
DdPllECQ III Tic INOlllCl SdlilOIC Id1 III
in the Polish church in Detroit. He
had abandoned the church early in life
and had lost all faith in it's teachings.
Father Szadinski urged him to re-
nounce his belief in anarchy and re-
turn to the faith of his early years.
Czolgosz declared his inability to do so
and he was informed that unless he
could the consolation of the church
would be denied him. The priest urged
the condemned man to consider the
matter carefully and told him that if
at any time he decided to re-embrace
the faith he would return from his
home in Rochester and stay with him
until the end.
Father Szadinski, before taking his
departure, left with Czolgoz some Cath
olic literature printed in Polish, and
also some emblems of the church.
Czolgosz assured Father Szadinski if
he determined to accept the offices Of
religion, he would send for him, but
he did not hold out much hope that he
would renounce doctrines of anarchy.

HARD TO FIND.
Gen. Chaffee Does Not Expect to
Capture Many Armed FiIipinos in
Samar.


Capture Many Armed FiIipinos in
Samar.
Manila, Oct. 22.-Gen. Chaffee does
not expect to hear of any extensive
engagement in the Island of Samar.
He believes the operations there will
not result in an open fight. 1t is hard
to find armed Filipinos, but every man
without occupation will be compelled
to go into a town.
1t is reported that all the rifles cap
tured by the Filipinos at Balangiga are
now in the Island of Leyte, where
many bolomen are known to have
gone from the Island of Samar. In fact,
Leyte is as disturbed as Samar.
The object of the reinforcement of
American troops now being pushed
forward is to increase all the garrisons
to thirty eight men. Some of them
have until recently numbered only
eight men. The reinforcements will
also allow the detailing of a working
force to operate in the field, hunting
for insurgents.
Gen. Wheaton reports that a band of
bolomen has entered Tarlac province,
Island of Luzon, through Bulangan
province, and that the men composing
it are distributing inflammatory bulIe-
tins, which are also posted on the
church doors, warning the people to
prepare to take the field in January.
Some of the friendly natives were in
formed by bolomen that various bands
of armed natives would shortly con-
centrate in the vicinity of Rosales.
A harmonious agreement has
been reached between Governor
Taft and General Chaffee re-
garding habeas corpus proceedings in
mil Iax.
has been amended so as to cover such
cases.

PRESIDENT AT FARMINGT0N.
Mr.. Roosevelt Receives an Ovation
in a New England Town.

Pennington. Conn, Oct. 22.-Presi-
dent Roosevelts day in Pennington
provided quite suitable addition to
the historic annals of this ordinarily
quiet old town.
The intention of the Presidents sis
ter. Mrs. Cowles, to make the occasion
a private affair, was considerably over
come by the anxiety of the people to
see the President and to grasp his
hand.
The absence of a publicly announced
programme gave an element OF uncer-
tainty to the day. Everybody on the
street was inquiring when and where
the President could be seen, but the
mass of people went away satisfled,
for the President made three dashes
through portions of the town. In the
last of these he rode out in an open
carriage through the big crowd assem-
bled on the principal street corners,
just at the conclusion of the ceremony
of planting a Mckinley memorial oak.
Men and women. youths and maids
pushed and struggled to touch the
Presidents hand as he, leaning far out
of the carriage, endeavored to reach as
many as possible.
The Presidents day was filled with
enjoyable rides, walks ana receptions.
1t was concluded this evening with
dinner given at the home of Comman-
der and Mrs. Cowles.
Between his two rides the President
and a few friends took a long tramp to
Pinnacle mountain.
An interesting incident of the morn
ing was the greeting of $50 SCHOOLGIRL
dren, attired in white, waving flags at
the President as he rode by.
The afternoon was chiefly devoted TO
receptions, first to the young women OF
the Porter school, and second to the
guests invited by Mrs. Cowles to meet
her brother
The town was well policed by deputy
sheriffs and constables, the customary
warning having been sent out in ad-
vance by the chief of police at Wash
ington.
The secret service men followed the
Presidents party as far as possible.
but We're unable to keep track always
of the rather rapid changes.
The President will leave Pennington
at $40 a. m. tomorrow and will arrive
in New Haven about an hour later.

CARRIERS REPLY.
Embexzling Ex-Captain of Engi-

neers and His Brothers File De-
murrer.
Chicago, Oct. 22.-The reply of Ober-
lin M. Carter, former captain of United
States Engineers. to the suit of the
United States to regain 1922 900, which
1t is alleged Carter embezzled from the
government, was received here to-day
and placed on file in the United States
Circuit Court. The demurrer of Capt.
Carter and that of the other defend
ants, Lorenzo d. Carter and /. Stanton
Carter were also filed, and Judge
Kohlsaat will be asked on Monday to
set a date to hear arguments, If any,
and to determine just how much, IL
any, of the stolen funds are now in
Chicago. Capt. Carter sent the papers
from Fort Leavenworth, where he Is
confined.
In the demurrer Capt. Carter says he
never received from the contract or
anyone, directly or indirectly. any of
the money or property referred to in
the bill that ever, belonged to the
United States. He never received. he
claims. any reward from the contract
ing firm, and did not conspire with
them in anything prejudicial to the
government.
Capt Carter states further that he is
advised that the court martial SEN
tence was not based on the receipt by
him of money of the United States, but
was founded on a statute which makes
an officer liable for embezzlement in
case he pays out money to a third per-
son by mistake, or where a third per-
son is not by law entitled to II: He
paid all these sums, he says, under a
contract made by his superiors, and
any money which he now possesses be-
longs TO him on his own account.
