The speclal for stern wheelers of the 2:18 class was a catching operetta of five acts that dragged consid- erably toward the end, in which the he- roine eventually turned up in Miss Barna- bee. In the running number El Mido downed his field handily, while Zurich, by taking the sprint, caused the bookies to shudder. Betting on the pace was not brisk, be- ing confined chiefly to emall wagers on the result of heats. Willlam Harold ruled an even money chance for the first, and led Bernard and Wilhelmina over the line ely that he had a stanch fol- lowing to take the heat following. To the surprise of all, John A, the 4 to 1 outsider of the sidewheel quartet, hooked up with Harold in the stretch and in a drive was a head in 2:13%.

The point was raised by a question put by the prosecution to Witness Culton regarding a conversa- tion between him and Youtsey before | Goebel dled. The court ruled that this evidence must be excluded. In regard to. the preparations for bringing the big crowd of mountain- eers to Frankfort, witness said Powers told those in the conference that in the event of any trouble growing out of the importation of the men the would be indicted for conspiracy, and were asked if they were willing to take | | the risk. In the discussion of the ques- | tion of transportation witness said | 'y Painter, a Middlesboro rallroad lawyer, suggested that trains be captured on several roads. Culton said he boarded the mountaineer excursion at Richmond. He said Charles had told him to go there and come | down with the men, as Powers was not needed. He was told to tell the men to announce on their arrival that they had | come only to petition the Legislature. Advised to Be Cautious. | After the assassination Powers came | to witness and told him to write to the | parties who were in the conference and tell them they had better be very care- ful and do no talking, as they were liable to be connected with the murder. Witness told him it would be dangerous to write, and Powers said he would do it himself. The prosecution produced a box of cartridges for witness to inspect. He sald the cartridges were like those Youtsey showed —nim ~when talking ebe about killing Goebel. badges for the Powers gave witness mountain men who remained at Frank- fort. They were issued so that in case of trouble they could distinguish their own men from others. The badges con- tained a picture of Governor Taylor. Witness said that while in jail with Powers at Frankfort Powers begged him nc to go on the witnes stand in | the hearing of the motion for bail. Wit- told Pow he wanted to get bail his family needed him. Powers told him he would see to it that his family was provid, for if witness would agree not to go on the stand. Witness declined to do so, “Is it not true that you used over $100! t ) < r $1000 belonging to the funds in your on:rgl. while a clerk in the Auditor's office, and that Auditor Stone was compelled to make your shortage good?” asked the counsel for defense “‘It is not true. T was not short in any amount, and Auditor Stone did not have to pay anything on my account.” Culton was asked about visiting Colo: 4 a L Colonel Campbell and cthers of the prosecution. He denied that he had been promised im- munity. He admitted that he did not tell Campbell the truth when he said that he | told all he knew, but, as a matter of fact H\ri‘lnld just as much as he was forced to ell. Testimony at Variance. Witness said that in becoming a witness in the Powers case now on trial and in telling all he knew he is following the ad- vice of his father, Judge Culton. The de- fense then atempted to show an intimacy between Culton and the prosecution, and that a discrimination was being made bes tween Culton and the other defendants. Mr. Owens asked a number of questions to show that the testimony given by Cul- | ton on the stand to-day and yesterday was at varfance on some points with that given in his application for bail at Frank- fort. Witness said he had omitted some things in his testimony, but that he had not done so intentionaily. His memory had been refreshed by the questioning of the lawyers, and this recalled the adal- tional matter he had told. The cross-examination was continued in 2 He was asked to again relate the conversation between him and ex-Governor Bradley regarding a re- port that Goebel was to be killed, Brad- ley told witness he understood that twen- ty men had been picked for that purpose and said: ““That must not be under any circumstance: He was asked if Powers did not come to him after the assassination and ask him if he knew anything that would lead to the discovery of the assassin. Witness could not recall such a conversation. Culton concluded his testimony at 2:30 p, m. Silas Jones of Whitley County, who went with the mountaineers to Frankfort and remained there until after the assassina- tion, was the next witness. Jenes was in the execut ive building . The shots sounded to him to come from the Secre- tary of State’s office. Prior to the shoot- ing the witness was in Governor Taylo?}s office. The Governor asked him why he was not in the House lobby. Witness re- plied that he did not want to go up there, as he was not armed. He added: “The Governor asked why in the hell I had | come there without arms and said I had as well go home.” After the shooting Jones was arrested as a suspect but was released, the Grand Jury failing to indict.
