the murder of William Goebel
Two ballots were taken the firstballot stood eleven for life im ¬
prisonment and one for hangingthe second ballot all agreed on alife sentence Powers will try for
a new hearing
The case against Henry EYoutsey charged with the murderof William Goebel was calledMonday but continued untilThursday on account of the ill¬
ness of the defendant The attornerys for the defense asked thatthe case be continued until theOctober term of the count on thegrounds that Taylor and Finleywere two very important witnessesand that they would be there totestify for Youtsey at that timebut Judge Cautrill immediatelyoverruled the motion saying
There was no assurance that tine
two men would be here at timeYoutsey will in all probability bethe last ol the assassins to be triedat this terin of the court

on the jury was the first tospeak He said Gentlemen I am-
a Republican and I have said thatI did not believed Goebels murderwas the result of a conspiracy Idid not think Caleb Povers couldbe guilty but I have heard the evidence and i am convinced he is

timated¬
that he thought the deathpenalty ought to be inflictedHowever when a ballot was takenall 1 2 of the jurors voted for lifeimprisonment
