GOEBEL CASES OFF RECORD Governor of Kentucky Issues Pardons to Taylor and Finley, GIVES REASONS TFOR ACTION Executive Says He Has Read Every Word of Record of Trials and Belleves Men Are Not Guilty. FRANKFORT, Ky., 'April 24.—Governor Willson, at 6 o'clock this evening cleared the Kentucky eourt records of all charges growing out of the murder in January, 190, of Senator Willlam Goebel, who was de- clared to have been elected governor, ex- cept those hanging over stale's evidence witness in the alleged conspiracy, by granting pardons before trial to former Governor W. 8. Taylor and former Secre- tary of State Cl es Finley, wWho have been fugitives in the state of Indlana for nine years; to John Powers, brother of | Caleb Powers, who is believed to be in Honduras; to Holland Whittaker of Butler county, John Davis of Loulsville and Zach Steele of Bell ocounty,: under indictment and who ald not fiee the state. Those over whom indictnients are lert hanging - are -Wharton Golden of Knox county, now In Colorado; Frank Cecll of Bell county, now a railroad detective in St. Louls, and Willlam H.' Culton, of | Owsley county, sald to have died in.the | west a few months ago. These cases, with | the possible exception of Cecll, will be dis- | missed, leaving Henry E. Youtsey, now serving a life sentence in the state peni- tentiary, the only person to suffer for the taking off of Goebel. Relterating the bellef he expressed some months ago, when he granted pardons to Caleb Powers and James B. Howard that no one but Youtsey had part in the mur- def and that it was not a conspiracy, Gov- ernor Willson says that he belleves it a “sacred duty which I must no longer delay to carry this bellef into effect.” Statement by Governor. In extending clemency in the Taylor case, | the governor, after reviewing the guber- natorlal election of 139 and the contest instituted before the legislature by Senator William Goebel, says: “For years it seemed as if there would never be an end of the political use of the Goebel murder to keep up hatred and con- tention. In the campalgn of 197 it was again brought up as it had been In every campalgn since 189, by speeches, by which it was claimed that the democratic nomi- nee for governor would not pardon Taylor, Powers and others and that the republican nominee would pardon them If elected. “I made no answer (o these speech:g until T came 1o the home of Powers in the mountains, where 1 told the people, his friends, that I would not prejudge theso cases; that 1 would not promise anybody either to pardon or not pardon these men, but that If the cases ever came before me trials was faithfully read and after glving these cases the most impartial consideration which the earnest wish and purpose to dec'de rightly could give them 1 reached the firm and earnest belief that Powers and Howard were not gulity and tesued the pardons. “The study of these records me to believe to the exclusion that Howard did not fire the killed Goebel. “The on! of Pow, which conetrained of a doubt shot which vidence in ali the four trials s and three trials of Howard by the prosecutlon In any way at- tempted to connect Governor Taylor with the murder was the testimony As to his writing to get Howard to come to Frank- fort to kill Goebel and tending to show that Howard on the request in that letter did come to Frankfort, entered into the plot and committec the murder “But Howard did not kil Goabel and Governor Taylor coull 1ot be guilty of getting Howard to do what he did not do.
