has caused great excitement among
the friends of other defendants IN
these cases.
Powers had nothing to say regard
ing the verdict except to express his
surprise that such a result could be
reached from the evidence and the an.
nouncement that he would take an ap-
peal and continue the fight to the court
of last resort When Powers secured
his former new trials a majority OF
those on the appellate court were Re
publicans, but it is now composed OF
Democratic judges.
Third Conviction of Powers.
Powers has been convicted twice be-
fore, this being the third trial in which
the jury brought in verdict of guilty
against him. On his previous trials
he escaped with sentence OF life I'M
prisonment. as the evidence was not
sufficiently strong against him to lead
the jury to intlict the extreme penalty.
All three of the trials were held at
Georgetown and in each OF them he
had the assistance of the most able
lawyers who could be procured. Sub
scriptiOn lists We're circulated In his
interest by friends and sum OF money
was secured to defray the cost of his
repeated trials and the investigation
of the circumstances which preceded
the killing of Governor GOebel in the
interest of the defense. In the last
trial Powers addressed the jury in his
own behalf and his eloquence in plead
ing for his life surprised those who
had watched him carefully in the past
trials of the case.
When the verdict was read Powers
sat unmoved, while his attorneys asked
for time to make a motion for new
trial Arthur Goebel, brother OF the
victim, broke down from the strain on
hearing of the verdict of guilty. He
is a prominent merchant at Cincin-
natl and he has spent his time and for
tune in the prosecution of those ac-
cused Of being in a conspiracy to Kill
his brother.

Proposed Scale Factory in Canada.

The directors of E. & I. Fairbanks &
Co. have been considering for some time
the advisablity of establishing a factory
in Canada where scales can be made for
the Dominion trade and the duties which
are now paid can be saved. If the pres
ent plans are carried out factory will
be built to make scales from start to
finish and which will naturally employ
quite a force of men. Nothing definite
has yet been decided as to the site, but
the wide.awake business men of Canada
are naturally anxious to have the new
industry in their own city or town, and
delegations from various cities and
towns in both the Province OF Quebec
and Province of Ontario have been here
to urge their respective claims and ad-
vantages. 1t is hardly necessary to say
that if the factory is built it will take
away none OF the business from the st
Johnsbury factory as the product OF our
own factory has the world for its field.
