timistic Predictions.
Indianapolis, Feb. 1T is probable
that the coal industry in the states of
Indiana, Chic, Illinois and Pennsylva-
mia, Known as the competitive field,
will be shut down and the 10000 min
ers in the district called out on a gem
eral strike within the next "A hours.
This condition Is brought about by
inability to reach an agreement in the
joint scale committee. That body clos
ed its deliberations last night without
an agreement, and a strike of gigantic
proportions is the probable result.
The charge was made on the floor of
the committee room that the Indiana
operators had deliberately come into
the convention with the purpose of
breaking up the interstate movement,
and. whether or not this is true, the
action has certainly made the reach
ing of an agreement a remote possibil-
ity.
Another charge made on the floor
came from the miners, and is to the ef-
feet that the operators are beginning
to think the interstate movement too
large, and for that reason want to see
1t go to pieces. The beginning Of the
end came when Iowa was denied ad-
mission into the competitive field.

Sheriff Of Whiteley County Now in
jail at Louisville.
Louisville, Feb. 1.-James Sutton,
sheriff of Whiteley county, who came
here frem Frankfort Tuesday night, is
a prisoner in the county Jail. Sutton
yesterday went up to the Office of the
clerk in the Victoria House and brand
fishing two revolvers said: II am the
man who shot Goebel, and will never
be taken alive" The hotel manager
promptly sent for the police, and on
the appearance Of the latter Sutton ran
upstairs to the third story. When he
thought he was about to be captured
he opened window and leaped. He
alighted on his feet, was uninjured
and ran nearly mile before he was
arrested. The police believe that Sut-
ton is either decidedly unbalanced men,
tally or that he knows who shot Goe-
bel. An effort to interview him after
he was lodged in Jail proved unsuc-
cessful. He lay in dark corner of his
cell and refused to say word.
Harland Whitaker. who was sus-
pected of having shot Senator Goebel
and who was brought here from
Frankfort is somewhat nervous as a
result of the excitement, but he still
persists in asserting his innocence. and
said he had no fear of the outcome
Of his trial. He said: II was there
simply as friend of Taylor, to see
with the others that he had justice
done him. When the case comes up l
will be cleared. They cannot convict
an innocent man. They can't show
where I shot at Mr.. Goebel, ana all
there is against me Is that had the
pistols, but if they arrested everybody
in Frankfort who was armed half ths
population would be in Jail"

mington was probably never ~
bright as it is at present, and acti-f
witty is being seen on all sides.
The building Of new mills and the
additions to several factories md
the development OF rapid transit

opportunity to get away from the

Frankfort, KY, Feb. 1.-William
Goebei was, shortly before Q o'clock
last night, sworn In as governor Of
Kentucky and J. C. N. Beckham, a few
minutes later, took the oath Of office as
| lieutenant governor. The oath was
administered to both men by Chief
Justice Hazlerigg, of the court of ap-
peais. Mr.. Goebel was propped up
with pillows, and was able to raise his
hand only with the greatest difficulty
as he listened to the words Of Judge
Hazlerigg. When the oath had been
given Mr.. Goebel sank back exhausted.
the effort having been almost too much
for his strength.
Mr.. Goebels condition at midnight
was better than at any time during the
day. He was resting comfortably, no
nnfavorable symptoms had appeared
and 1t was announced that he would
unquestionably get through the night
in good shape.
The plan to make Goebel governor
was set in motion early in the after
noon. A statement was prepared say
ing that the boards which had heard
the contests for governor and lieuten-
ant governor mad decided in favor of
Goebel and Beckham and that the
boards intended to report their findings
to the legislature, but that they had
been prevented from doing SO by the
action of Governor Taylor in declaring
the legislature adjourned. The state
ment then goes on to say that the
members of the legislature were driven
from place to place by the militia and
threatened with arrest when ever they
attempted to hold meeting. It was
declared the belief of all the Bigners of
the statement that Goebel and Beck
ham were the legally elected governor
and lieutenant governor, and each

ed that he voted for the adoption Of
the majority report Of the contest
boards, which declared Goebel and

titled to the offices.
