POWERS TO A HAD CATARRH THIRTY YEARS. aaa et Congressman Meekison Gives Praise t0|rne three times Convicted Pe-ru-na For His Recovery. Kentuckian Says the Juries Were Packed. Georgetown, Ky., May 6—With two life sentences reversed, and under shadow of the death penalty more than a year before the verdict also was reversed, Caleb Powers, accused of conspiracy to murder Willlam Goebel, made application to theScott county circuit court to have his case transferred to the United States dis trict court for the eastern district of Kentucky. Coincident with the fi!- ing of the petition was the appear- ance of ex-Governor Richard Yates, ot Illinois, and Frank S. Black, of New York, as counsel for Powers. Powers bases his petition for trans- fer of his case to the federal court up- on the claim that he had been denied and is being denied equal protection of the laws as guaranteed by the fourteenth amendment to the consti- tution of the United States, and that by the workings of the state courts of Kentucky in his case that portion of the fourteenth amendment prohi- biting any state from depriving any person of lite, liberty or property without due process of law has been violated. In support of this claim two main points are cited: First, that the courts refused to recognize @ pardon issued in legal form by the then legally constituted goveruor of Kentucky; second, that in all three of his trials before the Scott circuit court the juries have been solidly packed witn Goebel Democrats, the political opponents of the defendant, and that under the Kentucky code this selection of Democratic juries is permissible.

Why Parker Votes Left Nied- ringhaus in Senatorial Fight. Kansas City Times, Arthur P. Murphy, known to all his constituents as ‘Pat’ Murphy, was in Kansas City. He is the new Republican congressman from the Sixteenth, the big Ozark district in South Central Missour! and also maintains a law office in Muskogee, & A “T have not been in St. Louis late- ly, but I have kept fairly close track of the grand jury situation there, as I was actively interested in the sena- torial contest,” Murphy said, “I have wondered why they only tn- vestigated one side, I was not a Kerens man as everybody knows, and the St. Louis papers persist in saying I was offered $1,000 for ex- penses to support Kerens. Whether Iwas or not [had no votes to sell and this St. Louis crowd had no business putting out that kind of a story toinjure me. I was not 4 member of the legislature. ”’ Murphy told yesterday an inci- dent of the senatorial contest in Jefferson City that was never made public. He had charge of the in- terests of L. ¥. Parker, who was one ot the candidates for senator, but the Parker vote was cast solidly for Niedringhaus until the last week. Three days before the election of Warner the Parker men suddenly be- gan to negotiate with the Kerens forces and went with Kerens to War- nerin a body the day before the election. That was what put life in- to Warner’s support and eventually elected him. Murphy explained that the sudden withdrawal of the Parker forces from Niedringhaus came about because Niedringhaus refused a re- quest of Secretary Taft that he go to Washington and see if an agree nent could not be reached. “When Niedringhaus turned down Taft's request to come to Washington and see what could be done to settle the deadlock | knew it was time to quit him. He wanted to prevent an election if he could not get the office himself and that was time for a Re- publican who cared for the party interest to leave him. I fought Kerens but he was not in favor of ditching the party and Medringhaus yas,” PLEAD FOR HUSBAND. | Sixteen-Year-Old Wife Arrives in Jefferson City to Ask Gov- ernor Folk to Grant Pardon For Young Man’s Release.
