GOEBEL FUNERAL AT OLD HOME
Crowds assemble Along the Way and
at C~oyinEton to See the
Train.

CONVICTION, Ky, Feb. 6-The special
Goebel funeral train arrived here at s O'Clock
this morning from Frankfort. 1t consisted
of a baggage car with the casket and floral
tributes, a coach for the pallbearers, Judges
of the appellate court, legislative committee
and others and II Pullman with the relatives.
Among those in the Pullman were Arthur
Goebel Of Cincinnati, Justus Goebel, wife
and children of Arizona; Mrs. Braunecker of
Ohio, sister of the deceased; Mr.. and Mrs.
REYNOLDS Of Cincinnati. Mr.. and Mrs.
Charles McCord and other personal friends
were also in the Pullman.
Although the train made no stops except at
functions, there were groups at every sta
ticn along the way.
The demonstration in honor Of Goebel in
the city and county which he had repre-
scented in the state senate for twelve years
was extremely simple. While the demon
! s~tration was participated in by both city
and county officials, yet ordinary citizens
made up most of the long line of the. pro-
c~ession which followed the casket from the
depot to Odd Fellows hall, where the body
lay in state. n..'
A detail of police led the procession, fol-
| lowed by the guards of honor. members Of
the legislature and court of appeals, Kenton
County Bar association, Campbell County
Bar association. other organizations and
several Thousand people who had assembled
at the depot. .
During the forenoon there was no cessa-
ton in the current of people passing the
catafaluue. The body will lie in state here
until 10 p. M. and will be returned to
Frankfort by special train tomorrow morn
ing. At the capital it will lie in state until
the funeral at that place on Thursday.
This has been the most memorable day in
the history of Kerton county and also in the
history of the adjoining county Ct Campbell,
in which Newport. Bellevue and Dayton
form a continuous line OF cities along The
river. The great crowds Of people contin-
ued all day and all night around the Odd
Fellows hall. During the AFTERNOON several
women tainted. A dozen street car lines
We're overtaXed in conveying people across
the river. The schools in Campbell and
Kenton counties were closed and procession
after procession of pupils passed through
the hall. Nest Of them carried flowers to
strew around the catafalque.
The hall was full OF floral tributes before
the casket arrived and tonight 1t Is a vast
bed of flowers. 1t was not intended to have
any religious services here in German and
English, but prayers were offered and Miss
Carrie Belmer and Mrs. Jessie Bowren-
Caldwell furnished music. Mrs. Caldwell
sang at the funeral of Horace Greeley and
will sing at the Gcebel obsequies again in
Frankfort on Thursday. The prayer in
German was by Rev. Father Gilbert
Schmidt, pastor of ST. Paul's German
Protestant church, of which Governor Goe-
els parents were members. The prayer in
English was by Rev. H. W.. Ewing of the
Union Methodist church. There was no
music in the procession today and there will
be no band tomorrow morning.

Much-Discussed Document in Clark
Case Now in Hands of
Chandler.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 6.-The controversy
over the election Of Senator Clark of Mon
tana before the senate committee on cleo
lions began today with another wrangle be-
tween attorneys on the respective sides over
the letter Intercepted in Mr.. 'Campbelfs Of
fee while it was being carried from Mr..
Bickford'ss ofi te by Ben Hill. Campbell pre-
scented thealetter asking, as he did so, that
to be returned, as it might be important to
have it in a suit in Montana.
To- this request Mr.. Foster took eXcep-
ton, saying that as the letter was not the
property of the prosecution they had 10
right to it's return! This brought Senator
Edmunds to HIS feet with the declaration
that the defense could only get the letter
by a process OF law, with which" he said,
we will be glad to accommodate them in
Montana Or elsewhere" "
Chairman Chandler cut the controversy
short by announcing that he had the letter
in his possession and would himself hold it
for the present. The letter was read. 1t Is
on paper containing the card Of Walter NJ.
BickfoId and is as follows:

To Dispose of Financial BiII.
Until the financial measure now pending
before the senate shall have been disposed
of finally, it will be considered by the sem
ate every Legislative day to the exclusion
of all except purely Noutine business. This
agreement will have the effect of cutting
of all debate on the Philippine question or
other matters except by unanimous consent
of the senate, unless senators choose to
discuss other questions in the time they
devote to the financial bill.

on the Philippine question, holding that

islands the status quo and then confer in
dependence upon the Filipinos,

amendment to the constitution of North

CINCINNATI, o., Feb. Most of the
prominent Kentuckians in attendance at the
Goebel obsequies in Coyington today were
al Cincinnati hotels. Some Of the Hobbies
presented the appearance Of convention
times and there were several reports about
important conferences. The presence of
Governor Beckham and over sixty members
OF the Legislature, together with such lead
ers as National Committeeman Urey Wood

TO decide whether the democratic members
would venture back into Kentucky until it

After the conference Governor Beckham
at once took a train for Frankfort. Sena-
tor Blackburn and Ex-Governor McCreery
remained in Louisville over night.
The course of events in thu immediate

Of support from the national administra-
