to Secure False Evidence.
. Story Told in Detail.
LOUISVILLE, Ky., Oct. 30.?Tlu
Louisville Evening Post to-day prints
an alliciavu ot jrmiey Anderson, a telegraph
operator upon whose testimony
Caleb Powers was convicted of complicity
In the murder of Governor Goebel,
In which Anderson swoars his story
told on the stand at Georgetown, was
perjured. After telling of a conversation
with Attorney Campbell at Cincinnati
In connection with the Goebel
case, he says:
"I remained in Cincinnati after this
conversation with Campbell, and some
time after that Arthur. Goebel, In his
store on tho fourth floor, where I had
gone at his request, aBked me If Powers
had not In my presence, at Barbourvllle,
In January, said to me in
substance these words, referring to
"William Goebel, 'they say he wears a
coat of mall, but It won't do him any
good,' or something to that effcct. I
told Goebel that Powers had never said
anything of that sort In my presence
to the best of my knowledge.
Could Mot Bemember.
"He told me to think and see If I
could not remember 1L I could not remember
such a remark, and I know |
that Powers never did make such a remark,
or anything resembling It, In my j
presence; but being urged by Arthur j
Goebel, I finally concluded to state that I
he did make such a statement and so I
_j3woro upon the trial, which testimony
was false. , j
"Before making my statement to
Campbell, Wharton Golden told us to j
make it as strong as possible, as they j
(referring to Campbell and Goebel),
would take care of me and protect me. J
"I have, since such conversation with
: Campbell and Arthur Goebel received I
Ifrom Arthur Goebel various sums aggregating
about 5300, and upon one occasion
$10 from Justus Goebo). Tho last
sum I received was on Tuesday, Octo- j
ber 23, 1900, which was $5 given to me ;
by Colonel Campbell at his office in
9 Cincinnati."
Tells of Meeting Campbell.
Anderson tells of meeting Attorney
Campbell in Cincinnati, and continues
in his affidavit:
"Colonel Campbell then told me that
Joe Owens had told him that I had said
that Caleb Powers at the hotel in Bar-!
boursville, prior to the 2.1th of January,
had used these words, speaking
ui. ttiiiium uuuul"i> x^. we cunuui
lilm killed and It is necessary, I will
kill him myself.' 1 said to Mr. Campbell
that I had never told anyone any
such thing and that Powers had not,
made such a statement to me or any
statement resembling It in any way.
, Campbell and Owens insisted I had
i made such a statement, and I after- ;
ward, upon Campbell's suggestion, sat
' down and wrote out a statement, in
which I included the foregoing stateI
ment of Powers, which was untrue in
I every particular and upon the trial of
Caleb Powers I swore to it as a fact,
when In truth It was not a fact."

to-night the first estimate from the
Democratic state committee on how the
state would go. He said: "Our canvass
of the state gives Bryan CO,000 ma

refrained from making any statements

This estimate on our canvass
Is a very conservative one."

Alvord, Jr., the embezzling note teller
of the First National Bunk, who was
arrested yesterday In Boston, was arraigned
In police court here to-day and
remanded to police headquarters till 3
o'clock this afternoon, In order to give
the legal authorities time to decide
whether he shall be tried before the
United States or state courts. Alvord
was accompanied by his counsel.

case.
When Alvord was re-arralgned In police
court this afternoon. Fisher A. Baker;
counsel for the First ' 'National.
Bank, said that he had secured- a warrant
from the United States district
court for Alvord's arrest under the
laws regulating embezzlement and
making false entries. He said he would
much prefer that the prisoner go bo.
fore the United States courts for trial.
This was opposed by District Attorney
Gardiner. Alvord's attorney apparently
took little interest In this part or
the proceedings. After some discussion
the whole matter went over until
to-morrow. Alvord was committed to
the Tombs. It appears probable that
there may be a long contest as to Juris
diction, District Attorney Gardiner
apparently being determined that the
prisoner shall bo tried in a state court.

Dangerous "Undertaking'
When these men were brought to the
surface by the rescuers, the skin hung
In shreds from their bodies.
The work of rescue was dangerous,
as "after damp" had accumulate* '
The first rescuing party went down
the mine and were driven back and
two men in the party had to be carried
out. A number of physicians were on
hand and as fast as the injured were
brought to the surface their wounds
were dressed and they were ?ent to
the hospital or their homes.
The force of the explosion was so
great that it blew down a grcat section
of the roof. It %vns thought a* first
that there were a number of men back
of the fall, but at D o'clock to-n'Ght the
mine ofllclals were of the opinion that
all of the men had been taken ou^? The
accident was due to an empl?ye who
diverted the air course unwittingly, and
allowed the gas to accumulate In the
place where the men were at work. The
latter had been warned ih tiine vacate
the place, but they did not think
they were in danger and went ?n with
their work. The explosion soon followed.
The disaster has cant a gloom over
the little town, as the miners bad just
celebrated their ending of tbe i0nS
Strike.
Two more dead bodies were taken out
of the mine at 11 o'clock to-nlsht. The
victims are:
Michael Gulawehous and Adnm Waynales.
Both were married and leave famines.
All the missing have been accounted
for.

Tame?Jordan Still in the Lead.

games resulted in the Barker-Jordan
championship checker match to-d&&
both In the "switcher," closing the section
of the match.
The third section of twelve gaiacfl
throws tho responsibility on white, whg
may reply as he likes to the six moves
to be made by black, but may not repeat
his own move as made in the first
section. The gross score is now:
Jordan, 2; Barker, 1; drawn, 25.
The day's play was tame on the whalk.
though the games got out of tlto boola
early and strategy was novel.
