SAYS HOWARD FIRED THE SHOT Declares Crime Warn Directed by Gov. ernor Taylor, 'With Promise of Pardon for Guilty Tnrns Tables on-Oneof-Howarda Lawyers. FRANKFORT. Ky.. April lk Henry E. Youtsey today for the first time told on the witness stand his story of the kill ing of the late Governor GoebeL He named James Howard, the defendant, as the man who fired the shot. Youtsey said ne saw Howard for the first time a few minutes before . the shooting. Howard had a letter sent him several days before by the witness at Governor Taylor's dictation. Youtsey says he took Howard Into Caleb Powers' office, -which had been specially arranged for the f hooting. Youtsey said he showed Howard the Marlin rifle, the bullets and the window from which the shooting was to be done. He says Howard asked what he was to get for the shooting. "What do you want for ltf Youtsey said he asked, and Howard said he want ed a pardon for killing George Baker. "I told him he could have that and more, too, said loutsey. "About that time." said the witness. "Goebel came In the gate, and I pointed him out to Howard and then ran from the room. As I disappeared from the steps to the basement I heard the crack of Howard's rifle." He said that after the shooting he passed through the Statchouse basement, and a few minutes later came back Into the executive building from the eastern entrance. "I stayed In the office of Assistant Sec retary of State Matthews." eald he, "for a few moments, and saw Matthews break open Caleb Powers' office and find the guns that had been left there." Youtsey said that at the time of the bhootlng he was private secretary to Audi tor Sweeny, but that, while his political status was not definitely fixed. It was un derstood he was to have a good place un der Taylor. "Governor Taylor." eald Youtsey. "di rected everything we did. We regarded him as our leader, and he was morally re- sponsible for all we did. We knew we had the Governor and pardoning board be hind us, and were not afraid of punish ment for killing Goebel." During Youtsey's testimony Howard sat with his eyes riveted on the witness. His wife sat behind him. Howard did not change expression. Youtsey. on cross examination, said that after he was ar rested and sent to the penitentiary he still had his expectation of gaining liberty. He thought Yerks would be elected Gov ernor and would pardon him. Youtsey had bout a year ago decided to tell bis 6tory to the prison physician. Youtsey said further that he had an ad ditional Incentive to tell the story, as Taylor, Powers and others had used him s a catspaw and scapegoat,. and then Jeeerted him when he got Into trouble. Youtsey resumed the witness box this afternoon. Attorney Vlolette continued the cross-examination for the defense nd tried to extract from the witness an idmlsslon that he was to receive a re ward In the way of reduction of his sen tence or lighter work In the prison. Youtsey said no Inducement of the kind had been held out to him. He said that the only man who ever talked to him lbout any kind of reward was James A. Scott, now of counsel for Howard. "This was Just before I was arrested." said he. "and Scott told me If I would tell enough to bring about seven convic tions he would get me SS3.O00." He admitted having sent for Governor Beckham and asked his advice. The Gov ernor held a conference with him In War den Llllard's office and he said that Beck ham told him he should tell everything, but that he was offered no Inducement Attorney Vlolette asked a number of questions, the purpose of which was to show that Dr. Johnson, and not Howard, shot GoebeL Youtsey admitted that he and Johnson had planned to kill Goebel and that Johnson would do the shooting. W. J. Davidson, then Superintendent, of Public Instruction, he said, offered to Uow Johnson the use of his offlce to. do the shooting. Witness, however, did not approve of Johnson's plans for the killing and discarded him. NEW MAIL ROUTES. Three More for Oregon Jfew Post masters in Washington. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU.
