DEFENSE IN POWERS TRIAL.
Surveyor Coolmnn Is Allowed to
Make an Explanation,
Georgetown, Ky., Aug. 9. Testimony
for the defense In the trlnl of Former
Secretary of State Caleb Powers,
charged with complicity In the Goebel
shooting, probably will be concluded
today or tomorrow. Surveyor Cool
man, who testified yesterday, wns nl
lowed to mnke an explanation regard
ing some of the statements made by
him, nnd also to correct some of his
nnswers, which, he explained, were
made on a misunderstanding of some
of the questions.
The prosecution cross-examined
Coolman, again going over the greater
part of the giound covered by him
yesterdas. Tho defense had shown by
the witness that the bullet, If fired
from tho secretars of state's ofilce and
passed through Goobel's body at 11 3-1G
Inches depression to the foot, It would
have entered tho ground near the
fountain and to be cut of the hacko
berry tree could not be fired by the
assassin. The prosecution sought to
break down this contention and the
cross-examination was strung out at
great length.
Professor J. J. Bucker, of George
town college, was on the witness
stnnd when court recessed for lunch.
Professor Bucker gave expert testi
mony regarding the shooting and In a
general way supporting Coolman's
mathematical demonstrations.
At the afternoon session T. C. Da
vidson, of Adair counts, testfled that
Caleb Powers got him to bring a squad
of men to Frankfort, Jan. 23. Witness
said Powers told him to get good men.
Robert Noakes, re-called, dcnled the
substance of a number of alleged con
versations with B. A. Bice and J. II.
Wilder, of Bell counts.
Nelson Cummlngs testified ns to the
character of the members of the Cor
mln military compans, which Noakes
had testified was made up of disreput
able persons, as In accordance with In
structions from Powers. He said the
men with whom he was acquainted
bore good reputations.
L. F. Sinclair, one of the nttorness
for the defense, testified ns to nn nl
leged conversation with Wharton Gol
den In April, In which he said Culton
and Youtse.v were fools to have con
fessed, as thes would got nothing for
It. Witness said he was In the hall
wns of the executive building when
the assassination occurred. The shots
sounded to him as If fired from the
step of Ihe building. Saw no one ols
In the hall or at the door. Witness
then passed Into the governor's recep
tion room and met Governor Taylor,
who was standing In the door of his
olllce. He was vers much excited.
Witness pushed him Inside the otllec
and pulled the door to. Governor
Taylor had a pistol. Witness and Tay
lor walked to the window and saw the
body lying on the pavement. Witness
recognized It ns Goebel. On cross-ex-nmlnntlon
witness admitted that he
testified before the April grand Jury
nt Frankfort, but did not upon that
occasion tell of the things he hnd re
lated on the stntul this afternoon.
THE SCRANTON DELEGATES.
They Were the Cause of a Row In
the C. T. A. U. Convention.
Philadelphia, Aug. 0. The greater

gntes had failed to pay their per cap
ita tax before the expiration of the

dentials recommended that the dele
gation be denied recognition on the
lloor. After a lengthy discussion It
was llnally decided that as the dues
had been pnltl the Scranton delegates

DE WET OVERTAKEN.
Methuen Engages Portion of Boer
General's Force.
London, Aug. 9. The following re
port, dated Pretoria, Aug. 8, has been
received from Lord Roberts:
"Kitchener was Informed yesterday
by an escaped British prisoner thnt
De Wet's wagons had crossed the
Vaal. Afterward I heard the sound
of guns which, I think, must have
been Methuen's, as I directed him to
take up a position between Potchef
stroom and Llndlqtie, where he could
Intercept the enemy, who crossed the
river at De Wet's drift.
"Kitchener Is crossing the Vaal with
cavalry and mounted Infantry.
"Hunter reports that he made 4,140
prisoners In the Bethlehem-Harrlsmlth
district, u majority of whom are now
en route for Capo Town. Three guns
and 4,000 horses were captured nnd
ten wngon londs of ammunition and
195,000 rounds of ammunition were de
stroyed. "The garrison at Eland's river, which
1 fear hns been captured, consisted of
about 300 Bushmen nnd Rhodeslans.
I had hoped that Carrlngon hnd been
in time to withdraw the garrison; but
it seems that Delarey, learning of Ian
Hamilton's approach to Rustenburg,
hurried westward and surrounded the
garrison before Carrington arrived.
"Methuen telegrnphs that he engaged
a part of De Wet's force yesterday
near Benterskroom. He drove tho
enemy off of n succession of hills,
which they hold obstlnatels. Our cas
ualties were seven men killed or
wounded, including four officers.
