MISUNDERSTANDING.
The Investigating Commi ites Take Testimony
OF Several More Witnesses and
Adjourn Sine Die.

LITTLE Rock, ARE. May s.-The Clayton
Breckenridge investigation committee examined
several important witnesses to-day. w. E.
Green, the physician who attended W. NJ. BAn-
famine during his illness, testified his death was
due TO heart failure; that he examined him be-
fore he died and found no bruises on his body.
Two witnesses testified that they warned John
w. clayton not to go 70 Plummerville to take
dispositions, as the feeling was SO bitter against
him they feared he would be killed.
Gen. Powell Clayton was put upon the stand
and testified that when Thomas Hooper was
killed in Conway county in 1868 martial law had
not been declared, and that he was no more re-
sponsible for the killing than the members OF
the committee were. Hooper was said to be q
member of the Kuklux and the sheriff of Conway
county ordered his arrest.
Mr.. Breckenridge testified he had q CONVERSE
ton with Col. Carroll Armstrong and several
others previous to the November election, dur
ing which conversation something was said
about irregularities that occurred in districts in
the state other than his own. He said no COM
plant hal been made about the way elections in
his district had been conducted during his six
terms in congress, and he expressed the hope to
Col Armstrong that there never would be.
Sheriff Shelby testified that he had done all he
could to discover the murderer of Col. Clayton,
following every clew that was given him. He
also testified that after a thorough investigation
of the charge preferred against Bently as being
implicated in the murder of Clayton, he found
he was in Morrillton on the day the murder &C.
CURED.
Several witnesses testified at the night session
that Bently was in Morrillton on the night of the
murder, and they saw him at ball late in the
afternoon.
Gen. P. Clayton received telegram from Los
Angeles from George e. Weeks, stating that
three neighbors of the late Thomas Hooper
would testify that deceased was at his home
during the month of January at midnight.
The committee adjourned sine die.

TO attend the convention and take in the Spring
Palace exhibition.
1t was impossible to gauge the influx of Wis
itors yesterday, as only part OF them regis
tered. Very many, like Rev. DR.. Broadus were
driven directly TO their place of residence for the
week. It was a scene of confusion almost at
with addresses OF entertainers upon them
were given out. great many of the
late Corners had to be contented with cots, and
the committee calculate that they will need at
least 100 more places to accommodate the dele
cations that will come to- day. Everybody who
can manage in any possible way to accommo
date one or more are urged to help the
management ont. Everyone who can en-
tevtain these delegates should not hesi-
tate now as they are here and must
be cared for. This is q matter in which there
can be no delay and the citizens should face the
matter squarely and not suffer the reputation Of
tort Worth hospitality to fail at this time, when
representatives from score of states are here to
see and know and report.

DRAWING NIGH.
The Day on Which the Spring Palace
VIII be Thrown Open.
And Already the yisitor1 are Gathering in
Preparation for the occasion-FOrt Worth
Day = The Work Being Done.

Only one more day and the Spring Palace will
be thrown open in all its proud magniicence.
The people from distant parts have already
begun to arrive in the city, and the outlook is
for large attendance IS soon as the gates are
opened to the public
The officers OF the Palace association are
spar1ng no pains to make the exhibition as near
perfection as human intelligence can direct,
Thanks to the foresight of the management, the
woIk of building and decoration was COM
menced long enough in advance to insure COM
pletion at the opening, but there are many small
matters of detail which can only be attended to
at the last moment, and those in charge OF the
decorations are not disposed to be satisfied with
their work till no artistic effect remains lacking.
So they are putting on the elaborate finishing
touches.
The counties are now corning in with their
tageOus exhibition.
The opening day has been appointed specially
for the people of this city, and has been desig-
mated Fort Worth day, with the idea of securing
home s6 o d4
for realization of the expectations in
that direction. Besides those business men who
have agreed to close their places of business
from till O'Clock on Saturday Afternoon as
published yesterday in THE GAZETTE, many
others, including about all OF the prominent
business men of the city, have signifed like
intention; so that there will be a general
outpouring of merchants, bankers, clerks, arti-
sans, and of the people generally. 1t should be
so. The board of trade, nearly 100 strong, Will
march from their room at the board of trade
building to the Palace in body at l O'Clock.
The Elgin band will be in attendance on that
afternoon, and so the Fort Worth people will
have the first opportunity to view the magnif-
cence of the Palace with all its attractive fea-

cardif Fails Before Godfrey.

PRovrDEscE, R. l.. May s.-TweIve hundred
people at the Gladstone club tonight saw Patsy
Cardiff of Minneapolis fail down before George
Godfrey, colored, heavy weight CHI ampion OF
Boston, in sixteen rounds, Opinion was gen
orally expressed by those who claimed 10 be
eonversant with the Western mans peculiar
tactics, that he voluntarily surrendered the con-
test. The 1920 trophy was awarded 20 Godfrey.
The first exhibition OF the evening was a con-
test for points between Godfrey. colored heavy
weight of Boston, and Patsy Cardiff OF Mime
apolis. Godfrey entered the ring weighing I72
pounds, while Cardiff tipped the beam at 176
pounds. The referee was Billy Mshoney, of
Boston. Godfrey's seconds were Badly Carroll
and George Burr. Those who performed like
service for Cardiff were Dan Mills and Tom
Kelly. The battle was fought in sixteen rounds.
Cardiff was remarkably clever in dodg-
ing and avoiding punishment. His left
arm became completely closed during
the struggle. The men fought
at close quarters for the greater part OF the
set-to. Godfrey was aggressive, standing right
up to his man. The Boston mans left eye vas
discolored and his face was cut by the powerful
left handlers delivered by his adversary. Neither
received any body punishment, the objective
point of each being the others physiognomy.
In the sixteenth round the men came together at
the word OF time and clinched near the ropes.
when suddenly Cardiff fell to the door upon his
face. He was down and seized with nausea and
suffered from exhaustion. This closed the
fight. The $500 trophy was bestowed upon
Godfrey amid cheers from his supporters.

as will be bere in August, and he came down to
investigate the Iumors, which if found true,
would cause him to Rgitate the matter of hold
ing the convention at some other point in the
state. His investigation to-day, however, con-
WINGED him of the error OF the reports, and he
expressed himself as delighted with the pros
poets of ample room and splendid accomoda-
tions for the nominating assemblage-in fact, he
said that when the hall was enlarged
as projected it will be superior in every way to
those at Dallas and Galveston, where previous
