* THE CENTRE DEMOCRAT, BELLFFON'LZ, PA. SEPTEMBER 19, 1907. Caleb Powers’ Strange Case. HE statement of Caleb Powers | that he knows who killed Gov: | ernor William Goebel and that James Howard, now in the penitentiary charged with the erime, not the man attention once more to one of the most remark-| able cases In the criminal and political annals of America. Powers Issued the statement whiie preparing for his fourth | trial the charge conspiring to} murder Goebel, and his assertion was | prompted by the declaration of Judge | 8. W. Hager, Democratic candidate | for governor of Kentucky, that in case | of his election he would not pardon Powers or commute any sentence the latter might receive If his fourth trial resulted in a conviction. Powers criti. cised the Democratic candidate for making any promises regarding him while his case was still before the courts of the state for settlement. An- other Interesting aspect is given to the affair by the assertion of ex-Governor William T. Durbin of Indiana that he was offered a bribe of $03,000 if he would turn over to the Kentucky au- thorities for trial the fugitive Repub-| lican governor, William 8. Taylor, bel’s rival for executive honors in Ken- tucky, who fled into the Hoosler State and has since it his home when charged with complicity in the murder of Goebel. Taylor was recently offer | ed immunity from arrest in Kentucl if he would testify in the Powers “After seven tio ) have at last discov able to point out the Senator Goebel Howar prosect tal tire innocer prived ance str breaking great state Is calls on of (oe made has made years o r as | shi mp ——_—t) ; kT CALED rowdy 1 nat incar erward, and the has spent In confinemen courage and after each convl curing a new tri He clal been that ted ng composed of bel Democrats, Ills efforts to have removed from the state courts and in a federal court were un successful When his fight for his liberty and good name exhausted all the funds at his command, ald came to him from all over the country from those who had been of his innocence or who desired that he have a full opportunity to prove It.

He is tall and fine looking, but | he has had to make a fight tn retain his health while In confinement. Ie once attended the West Point aecad- | emy, but had to leave before complet ing his course on account of the cond) tion of his health. While In Jalil he has exercised several hours each day | with Indian clubs and usually walks | a great deal about his cell, with every | aperture open for the admittance of alr and sunlight. Tle estimates that he has walked enough to girdle the globe in his dally perambulations. He has written a book containing his life story and the account, from his point of view, of the troubles culminating In the shooting of Goebel, and this work has alded considerably in swelling his defense fund. His correspondence I» heavy, and, though he operates a type. writer himself, he sometimes has had to employ a stenographer In order to attend to It. Thousands of people have visited him In his cell, he has bad seventeen offers of matriage from ro. mantic young women, and, according to his own statement, opportunities to escape have not been lacking.
