ONE q CAUsE d or WAR REMOVED M i;

Court Officer Under Arrest Is Released on
che Order of Governor Taylor.
FRANKFORT, Ky. Feb. 6. -- Armed con.
fiict between the civil authorities 81
Franklin u i county and the national guard
Of: the state Of Kentucky has been
averted and unless new causes should
come to the front there is small likeli-
hood that the political situation vii be
come as threatening as itshas been dur
ii,g the last 36l hours. mn 5;ts. ,.2,s
\ Governor Taylor during the morning
2 'aered the release of eAlonzo Walker,
for the possession Of whom Judge Moore
declared that Sheriff Sutter should swear
III a posse and take possession Of the
capitol grounds if such extreme action
became necessary. While not recogniz-
ing in his action the existence Of the
writ of habeas corpus which had been
sworn out in behalf Of Walker Governor
Tay lor, by releasing the man, removed
the most sa
J. Threatening Sign of Trouble.
The commanding officers Of the troops
which guard the capitol grounds are
careful to say that the situation is en-
tirely a military affair and that they ex-
tend the writ of habeas corpus very
little consideration, but whether they
regard it Or not Walker is free and
Sheriff Sutter will not be called upon to
summon force in the attempt to secure
his release.
The appalling consequences which
would follow such an effort on the part
Of the sheriff was too much for the more
conservative members Of the Democratic
party and it was decided during the day
that no matter what Judge Moore
should say as an individual there would
be no attempt to take possession Of the
capitol grounds by forco Of arms. Even
if Walker had been held much longer
time than he actually was held no
effort, the
Democratic Members Had Decided,
should be made for his rescue after the
writ of habeas corpus had failed Both
sides will take a rest pending the session
Of the Republicans called by Governor
Taylor at London. No Democrats will
attend this until they are taken there
by the military forces of the state and
no attempt will be made in this direc-
ton by Governor Taylor until he has
afforded them every opportunity to go
to London of their own accord. What
will be done when it has been made Ger
tain that the Democrats will not visit
London has not been definitely deter
mined by Governor Taylor.
1l It is likely that matters will, on both
sides, be allowed to drift until after the
funeral of Governor Goebel.

with the flag under which he was killed
in the Philippine islands, the body of
Major John A. Logan lay in state here.
A delegation Of veterans of the Civil
war, who had fought under the dead

as those who wished to pay last trib-

through Memorial hail. Later in the
day the body was taken to the train and

4 COM FERENCE.
Leaf l,1lg Kentucky DEMO- ocrats and
Republ blicaIls to Meet at
& Louisville
And Make a Serious Attempt to
Get Peaceably Out Of Present
Difficulties.
Generally Believed Taylor Will
Allow Legislature to Meet
in Capitol.

# LOUISVILLE, Feb. 6.-Up to noon the
Democrats had not definitely decided
upon their plans for the Immediate fu-
ture, either as to Governor Beckham
or the legislature. An important con-
ference is to be held which is likely to
go far in determining the course Of
events and the policy of both sides. At
this conference, it is stated Lieutenant
Governor John Marshall, Attorney Fair
leigh and probably Attorney Augustus
3. Wilson will represent the Repnbi-
cans. For the Democrats Governor
Beckham, Speaker Irimble, Ex-Governor
McC Creary, Colonel Bennett Young, Sen
ator Black burn and possibly some others
Of the party leaders will be present. tt
is believed the final actions Of both sides
as far as they relate to the time and
place of holding the next session Of the
legislature are being delayed to await
the result Of this conference. TheDem
ocrats are prepared to carry out their
original plan to assemble here and adj
journ at once or go to Frankfort on
short notice. The officers Of both
houses, the clerks, records, ETC., are still
here, awaiting orders from the party
leaders. .ss
Both Sides Believed Sincere.
It is believed both sides are sincerely
trying to find a basis on which negotia-
tions for peaceful settlement may be
conducted, but the difference between
the stands taken by the two parties is
so radical that progress is necessarily
slew. The events at Frankfort within
the past "a hours have made for peace,
and an amicable adj djustment of the trou-
BILE is expected. Governor Taylor's
statement that the order convening the
legislature at London has not been re-
voked, is not regarded by those who
know the the nature Of the latest peace
negotiations as less oning the chances of
such an agreement.
Senator Blackburn and his party
reached here from Frankfort shortly
after noon and were met by the Demo
cratic leaders here and the Republican
conferees. The latter then went into
private conference, and at Il o'clock,
Lieutenant Governor Marshall sent
word to the Democrats that they would
not be ready for a joint conference until
o'clock.
The New National Guard.
General Castleman, the Democratic
adjutant general, was X. more close
mouthed than ever concerning the form
alton Of a new national guard. The
fact that such a force may not be needed
has checked these plans, which had pro-
ceeded as far as the organization Of one
battalion Of the first regiment, under
Major J. +. Gregory. The men, it is
said, have all the equipment they need,
but have not yet been called together,
and probably will not be for the present.
The Democrats were careful to- an
nounce il the first place that any steps
they took in this direction were purely
defensive.

lines in Alaska. and it was important. too
that cable lines entering Alaska should be
under the control of the American govern
ment. The idea of his proposition was 10
prevent any foreign government or corpo-
ration from entering Alaska with either tel
egraph or cable lines. He adverted TO The
tact that a Canadian company was now
constructing telegraph line with the idea
OF crossing Alaska and laying cable from
the Alaskan coast across the northern Pa
cific ocean to China. This company had a
subsidy of S250,UO a year 1t ought not to
b" permitted to land its cable on the Alas
kan coast. The American government, he
thought. ought 10 control the cable lines of
the Pacific.
Mr.. Carter said the whole matter had
been thoroughly discussed in the commit
tee, and he could see no reason why any
number of cable lines should not be col--
Structed across the Pacific.
Mr.. Lodges amendment was agreed to.
Without completing the bill the Senate
at 1:15 pm. adjourned.
