JURY TO TRY POWERS
Composed of Eight Democrats, Four
Republicans.

Republicans.
GEORGETOWN, KY, Nov. a.
The jury to try Caleb Powers, charg-
ed with the murder of Governor Goe-
bel. was completed this afternoon.
There are eight democrats and four
republicans on the jury. Eleven
are from Grant county, and one is
from Harrison county. At the after
noon session witnesses for the COM
monwealth were called and attach
ment issued for those who did not
answer. The indictment of Caleb
Powers found by the Franklin county
grand jury April 17,1900, was read
and Attorney Williams stated the
case of the prosecution, reciting the
crime and defining the term conspir-
acy. Judge Williams touched one
political feature of the case and ad-
dressing the jury. said that the only
man meaner than a republican who
would acquit a prisoner guilty of a
crime because of republican afilia-
tion, would be democrat who would
rob a prisoner of liberty because of
political bias.
He gave brief statistics of the
present history of the period sur
rounding the commission of the crime
purposing to show a motive for Caleb
Powers alleged participation In it.
He recalled the bringing of armed
men from the mountains, the respon-
sibility for this being placed on Pow
ers.
Judge Sims for the defense re-
served his statement until the close
of the testimony for the common
wealth. and court adjourned until
tomorrow.

AN OFFICIAL CALL
NATIONAL RIVERS AND HARBORs
 CONGRESS TO MEET.
To Assemble in WaashingtOn fin Early DecembeR-TO Urge a Broad and Liberal Policy in Water
 way Improvements.

Cincinnati, Oct 27.-The official call for the meeting of the National Rivers and Harbors Congress has been sent out by President Ransdell of Louisi- ana, and Secretary Ellison of this city. The Congress will assemble at the New Willard in Washington, on December 1, adjourning on the evening of Decem- Der 6. It will be the fourth meeting of the Congress and the second since It's reorganization.
 The call is specific in its declaration that no special project for river or for harbor improvements will be advocated O reven considered by the Congress, and that 1t will stand only for broad and liberal policy by the National Gov ernment for all such Improvements as have been favorably considered by the Board of Engineers of the Army and by that board recommended to the Congress of the United States.
 It is the design and purpose of the National Rivers and Harbors Congress to demand that more liberal pro- portion of the revenue of the Govern ment derived from commerce, shall be expended in the interest of commerce in improving the national channels of trade and transportation. the amount heretofore appropriated for such inn provements having been about three per cent.
 All preparations have been made at Washington, and it is expected that the congress will be more largely at- tended than any preceding meeting, and mainly because of It's openly an- nounced program that it stands for a policy and for no special project.

. QUESTION OF RANK
AMERICAN FLEET TO BE COMMAND
 ED BY A vTCE-AD1fIRAL.
Roosevelt VIII Endeavor to Have Rank of vaee-Admlral conferred on Rear-Admiral Evans by
 Next C0nEresa.

Washington. Oct. 27.-The great bat tleship fleet which is about to make it's way from the Atlantic to the Pacific. probably will be commanded by a Yice-Admiral and that officer Is now Rear Admiral Evans. Of course this Is conditional upon Congress giving it's sanction to the proposal that will be made by the chief executive to estab- fish this new rank in the American navy. .. Rear Admiral Evans is going to sail in command of the most powerful fleet that ever gathered under the American flag, not only that he commands more battleships of modern type than any other naval officer in the world. and the only other officer whose blue pen nant floats over a more numerous fleet of all kinds of warships is Lord Charles Beresford. and he Is of greater rank than a Vice-Admiral, even an Ad- miral, like Dewey.
 On this cruise, the American fleet Is to touch In many foreign ports and is to exchange courtesies with foreign fleets and in several places-in Brazil, in Chile, in Argentina--the American commander. supposing he is retaining his present title of. Rear AdmirGi, would be outranked, Tor the navies of all of these countries contain officers of the grade of Vice-Admiral, which would make the American command CTS position humiliatlng.
 As Admiral Evans retires next Au- gust. the office will be of short dura- ton.

 Onlcer Opened Fire.

courtland, Oct. 27.-(Special. )--Rob- ert Ross mortally wounded. Lee Cosby in jail, and the officers in hot pursuit of Sherman Cosby, is the result of burglary on the store of s. Moore. in this town last night
 For more than a month, MT. Moore has been missing large quantities of goods from his store in Courtland. Silks. satins, clothing. shoes and dry goods were stolen with liberal hand. Two weeks ago he put a watch on the house and since that time, T. M. Crow. town marshal, has been sitting up in the store at night.
 This morning at about o'clock, while Mir. Crow and his son, Lacy Crow, were in the store, the heard the back door open. Grabbing their shot guns, they commanded the intruders to halt. The command was not obeyed and the marshal fired two shots. Rob ert Ross. a negro, fell to the floor. sherman Cosby, who was with him, got out of the door.
 Ross who was mortalIy wounded, told all the details of the affair. He said that this was his first offense and that he was gotten into the scrape by the two other negroes, sherman Cosby and Lee Cosby. The house of Lee Cosby was searched this morning and silks and fine goods to the value Of mort than $1o0 were found.
 Sherman Cosby was not caught. At the fire of the gun, he ran out of the back door and jumped into a buggy that was waiting for him. The off, cers think they have him located and have gone out looking this morning. There is no sympathy expressed for the wounded man, or the others en- gagged in the plot. by the negroes of the community. They think that they were treated right. and hope that Sher- man will be caught.
