Taylor's Deposition
Read at Powers 'TriaI
Ex-Governor Denies all hnowl-
edge Of Cosbel's Slayer

Georgetown, Ky: AS evidence In
the case of Caleb Powers, his counsel
Thursday afternoon filed the deposit
ton Of former Governor w. s. Taylor
of Kentucky, now located at Indian
apolis, Ind The deposition Is made
up OF responses to 1i2 questions d.
rect and no cross4nterrogatories and
1t is being considered one question at
a time by Special Judge Robbins. Fiji
ty-one questions we're read and an
sWers given at the afternoon session
of court, and but six of them ruled
out as not competent.
The deposition contains general
denial by Taylor to the charges pre-
ferred against him returned in the
Franklin court of completely in the
murder Of william Goebei; also a de-
NAL of any knowledge of the compile
ity of any OF the others indicted for
or charged with being in the alleged
conspiracy to assassinate Goebel. He
denies any participation in or lNnowl-
edge of any attempt to intlmidate the
members of the Legislature Of 1900,
just and right in the settlement Of the
contest for the Governorship. He de-
MES that he had any of the incriminat-
ing conversations alleged to have
been had with him by commonwealth
witnesses, with w. H. Coulton, Har-
ton Golden, Frank Cecil and Robert
NoalSes, aud adds that he never saw
Cecil in his life
He declares Caleb Powers to be in
nocent, so far as he knows, of any
completely in the murder of Goebel,
and says It was for that reason that
he gave him a pardon. He says he
never saw Jim Howard, until after the
death of Goebel, and never gave him
pardon for that or any crime. The
responses ruled out by the court are
immaterial

Reliance Wins
the First Race
American Boat Drew Away from
Shamrock from the Start

New York: A distinct vision of still
another Shamrock must have drifted
across the fancy of Sir Thomas Upton
Saturday when he saw the most trium-
plant creation of the genius of Fife of
Fairlie splendidly vanquished by the
American-built boat Reliance in a fif-
teen-mile tussle TO windward and a
fifteen-mile run home in a registering
breeze, through choppy fOam-fringed
seas.
The infiexible Irish knight surely
will have to try again with a ship of
greater sail power if he wants to ac-
complish what now seems to be the
desire of his soul After all the shout
ing is over, however, he may return to
England with the assurance that he
has brought here the swiftest. hand
Gomest and best-sailed yacht that has
ever engaged in battle with a Yankee
racing craft in seas on Sandy Hook,
She did marvelously we'll in the
windward work, but the immense and
superior volume of the Reliance's pic
turesque sail-spread made the chal-
lengeT's run home seem something in
the nature Of a procession. The Re
lance beat Shamrock over the 30-mile
course by nine minutes, elapsed time,
and by seven minutes and three sec
onds corrected time. The Reliance ale
lowed Shamrock one minute and So
seconds. AS the challenger is to be
re-measured, because she did not, as
the rule requires, have an anchor and
chain aboard when she was first
measured, she may have TO give up
few seconds of her allowance. This,
naturally, will affect only the races in
which Shamrock may DO slose astern
of the defender.
