REPUBLICANS AT WORK.
Some Representations as to What
tho Convention will DO.

Washington, Jan. Especial: The
Republican National Convention,
when 1t meets in Chicago on June 16,
will contain $50 delegates This
number was fixed when the Republi-
can National Committee met here in
Washington on December 6, and al
lotted two delegates to each of the
territories. Each State has two del
egates for every Senator and Repre-
sentative in Congress.
1t will take 491 votes, a majority,
to nominate. None of the candidates
mentioned has anything approximate
ing the number Of votes necessary.
No delegates have been elected or
even pledged by the action of party
convention to Secretary William H.
Taft, except six from Alaska, and
this number has been cut down to
two by action Of the National Com
mittee. Grave doubts are entertain
ed as to whether Taft will get a ma
jority of the delegates from Ohio,
his own State. The "a votes Of Illi-
nois are committed to Joseph G.. Can
non, and III addition, two delegates
have been elected and instructed for
him in the eighth Michigan District.
However, under the call Of the Ma
tional Committee, these two dele
gates must be elected over again.
Vice President Charles w. Fairbanks
will set the 80 votes of Indiana. and
Senator Lafollette is expected to have
Wisconsin's 26 votes. Governor
Hughes, Of New York, is far from as
sured c. the rs votes of that State.
Senator Philander G. Knox, Of the
State Of Pennsylvania, has the 6S
votes of that State pledged to him
by the unanimous action of the Re-
puDliran State convention. He thus
has more real, visible strength than
any other candidate. His record in
the Roosevelt cabinet and in the SEN
ate has made him strong in his party
in all parts of the country, so that
there are several other State delega-
tions that consistently can be placed
to his credit. The vast majority Of
States are fighting territory for all
the candidates. Senator Knox's
friends are actively engaged in laying
mis- claims before the voters, and they
expect him to go into the convention
with a formidable number Of dele
gates supporting him. From the first
the Knox people have refrained from
any sort of pyrotechnical politics,
and the steady growth of his strength
Is leaving a more substantial impress
sion than that of any other candi-
date

quainted in our city, and Is we'll
known as true gentleman. He has

MISTRIAL IN POWERS CASE.
Jury Unable to Agree in Noted Ken
lucky Murder Trial.

Georgetown, KY, Jan. t.--After
being out more than 4S hours the
jury In the case of Caleb Powers,
tried on a charge Of complicity in
the murder Of William Ccebel, to-day
reported for the second time that
they were unable to agree upon a ver-
dict, and were discharged by judge
Morris.
This wa; the fourth tlial OF Pow
ers. In two Of the former trials Pow
ers was convicted and sentenced to
life imprisonment, and in the third
trial he was also convicted and given
a death sentence.
After the discharge of the Jury
court was adjourned until afternoon,
when the defense's motion for bali
will be heard.
The jury stood ten for acquittal
and two for conviction. J. L.. Price.
the foreman, and j. w. Renaker. the
Harrison county juror, held out for
conviction.
Powers was showered with con-
gratulations. He said he would
make statement later, adding: ~
am pleased"
There came near being an acouit-
tai to-day. Mr.. Reneker made tbe
proposition to Mr.. Price to vote for
acquittal. Price held out, although
sick man, and Renaker said he
would vote with him. c. J. Marshall
first voted for conviction, but soon
changed. The jurors were greatly
wrought up, there being much iii
feeling, and two of them shook Pow
ers by the hand and actually cried.
Powers was charged with being an
accessory before the fact, and the
open window in his Office has played
a large part in the various prosecu-
tions. His fourth trial, just conclud-
ed, continued for seven weeks.
