CLOSE Mill Welshman Who Found His Nationality a Friend in Need. IT WAS A STRIKING CASE. WILLIAM G. POWELL AND A MAN WANTED FOR MURDER OF ONE APPEARANCE. They Are the Same Even to a Finder of the Left Hand, But the Man Sought Is a German The Resemblance Was Remarkable. The police authorities of town were greatly puzzled by n case of striking re semblance on the part of a man found at Yatesvllle and tho description of one charged with committing wife murder at PIttstou last April. The man wanted Is described as' being George Windl-ih, a Gerraau. The body of the murdered woman was not discovered until two days' after the crime was committed, which. gave the murderer a start of two days. In describing the fugitive the police authori ties stated in their circular that his nose was straight and full, complexion dark, that he carried his head to one side aud walked with a shambling gait and with toes turned award The little flugerof the left hand was described as being crooked. Satur day evening a detective spent several hours in town looking for the fugitive without success and went on toPottsville Yesterday afternoon Detective Amour came across the man who so strikingly resembled the man wanted that the man himself said he was almost forced to the conclusion that he was the lndlvl lual wanted. This man accompanied Detec tive Amour to Justice Williams' office and thence to the lockup. He said his name was William G. Powell. While he was in the lockup Thomas Dove, Sr., entered the place to see what caused the excite ment. As soon as Dove stepped through the doorway Powell exclaimed, "Hello, Tom Dove !" The latter looked in sur prise and exclaimed in return, "Well, well, hello Tom Taylor 1" The recogni tion was mutual. Dove said that 'Taylor" and himself were raised in the same place in South Wales. Detective Amour asked the stranger how it was that he had given the name ot Powell. He answered in this manner, "My name Is William G. Powell, but my father was a tailor and I was always called by the nickname of 'Tom Taylor' at home." Amour, in the presence of several spectators then proceeded to note the resemblance between Powell aud the photograph and description given by the circular. Powell conformed to the details as to height, complexion, gait while walking and his right foot was turned inward. He tallied with the des- ciiptioneven to the little finger of the left hand, which was very crooked Irora an Injury and a little cut over one of the eye3. More than this, Powell said the only place at which he ever had his picture taken was at Hazleton and it was a tin type. The picture from which the photograph circulated throughout the country was taken was a tintype made at Hazleton. But after nil these remarkable comparisons there was one Insurmountable stumbling block. in dish had been described as a German. It was then thought possible that Powell notwithstanding the Welsh accent he used here, was able to speak the Ger man language and passed as a German at Plttston. Amour decided to have another investigation uud Powell agreed to be at Justice William' ofllce nt seven o'clock last evening. He speut the afternoon as Mr. Dove's guest. In the evening he again presented himself, but was told thit he need not wait. A young man rimmed Simmons, of Yatesvllle, called at the ofllce and stated positively that Powell was not the man wanted. He said that he worked as driver for WindUh, the murderer, in one of the Plttston mines before the crime was ccmmltted. He said Powell's appearance was strikingly close to that ot Wlndlsh, yet the latter was of such pronounced German type that ho could not oe mis taken for, or Impersonate a Welshman, This settled the matter and Powell went to Wm. Penn to visit friends there. Before leaving Powell said that he arrived in Shenandoah from the soft coal regions on Saturday. That he walked moat of the way and rode on fare raised by selling some of his clothing. He was reduced to poor circumstances on account of the strike among the soft coal miners and came to this region to secure work in the mines. The secret of happiness, "Keep your liver right."
