A DEMOCRATIC CONFERENCE.

LOUISVILLE, KY, February A.
Governor Beckham came to Louisville
from Frankfort at an early hour on the
train to-day, in company with Colonel
Bennett H. Young and several other
Democratic leaders who spent most OF
last week. at the capitol, counselling
with their party associates. Mr.. Beck
ham spent the day quietly with friends
in this city. During the afternoon
most of the prominent Democrats who
have been active in the management
OF the Goebel campaign called upon
the new executive, and a number Of
informal conferences were held. The
policy to be followed by the party
under its new leader was discussed. but
the secret of the afternoons congulta-
lions was closely guarded by all those
who participated in them. Speaker
Trimble, of the House of Representa-
tives, was present part OF the time
Gen. John B. Cast1eman, who was
appointed last night by the Demo-
cratic Governor to serve as his adju-
tant general, was one of the first TO
greet his chief. Gen. Castleman con-
veyed his acceptance Of the trust, and
the plans OF the Democratic admins

the shell tearing through the air. The

bursting of the shell.

onel; ''let us see where the shell

THE OUTLOOK BETTER.

FRANKFURT, n.y., FeDruary r.
Armed conflict between the civil au
thorities of Franklin county and the
National Guard of the State of Ken
lucky has been averted, and unless new
causes should come to the front, there
is small likelihood that the political
situation will again become as threat
ening as it has been during the last
thirty-six hours.
Governor Taylor this morning or
dered the release of Alonzo Walker,
for the possession of whom Judge
Moore had declared that Sheriff Suter
would swear in posse and take pos
session OF the Capitol grounds, if such
an extreme measure became necessary.
the existence of writ of habeas cor
pus which had been sworn out in be-
half of Walker, Governor Taylor, by
releasing the man removed the most
threatening trouble. The command
ing officers of the troops which guard
the Capitol grounds are careful to say
that the situation is entirely a mill
tary affair, and that they extend the
writ of habeas corpus very little con-
sideration, but whether they regard
it or not, Walker is free, and Sheriff
Suter will not be called upon to sum-
mon forces in the attempt to secure
his release.
The appalling consequences which
would follow such In effort on the part
of the sheriff were too much for the
more conservative members Of the
Democratic party, and it was decided
to-day that no matter what Judge
Moore should say as an individual,
there would be no attempt to take pos
session of the Capitol grounds by force
of arms. Even if Walker had been
held a much longer time than he ac-
tually was held, no effort, the Demo
cratic leaders 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 till they
are taken there by the military frees
of the State and no attempt will be
made in this direction by Governor
Taylor until he has afforded them ev-
cry opportunity to go to London Of
their own accord. What will be done
when it has been made certain that
the Democrats will not visit London
has not been definitely determined by
Governor Taylor 1t is likely that mat
tiers will on both sides be allowed to
drift until after the funeral Of Gov
ernor Goebel.

EXPECT TO REACH LADYsM1TH

LONDON, february 5.-A special
dispatch from Durham, dated Sunday,
and referring to Gen. Buffers re-cross-
ing the Tugela in an advance upon
Ladysmith, says:
1T is probable that Gen. Butler
crossed at spot above richards
Drift, and that, leaving the enemy to
the right, he is marching to Acton
Homes, whence the road to Lady
smith runs almost due east, through
a fairly open country.
ut is expected here that he will
reach Ladysmith tomorrow Monday
night.
The Pietermaritzburg correspondent
of the Daily Mail, telegraphing yester-
day, says:
Gen. Butler has undoubtedl. Sc
cured the road to Ladysmith and
sbould reach his objective this week.
II ;s believed here that the objee. of
the Boers in occupying Ngutu. Slu-
land is to secure the road from On
doc to yryheid in case of retreat.s

mains of the Democratic leader, and
bitter feeling engendered by his death
may result in clash. Precautions
are being taken irrespective of party
to prevent trouble. and no serious out
break is looked for.
The intermenf will take place Thurs
day from the Capitol Hotel. but the
actual arrangements for the burial
have as yet not been decided upon.
Plans for the raising of funds by
popular subscription for the erection
of a monument to Governor Goebel's
memory are rapidly taking shape. 1t
is the usual custom in Kentucky for
the Legislature to make an appropria-
ton for a monument for a dead Gov
ernOr. Besides this appropriation,
which Democratic leaders say is GER
tain to be made, it is planned either to
provide in the appropriation bill or in
a separate resolution, for a legislative
committee, in whose hands will be
placed the funds for the erection of
the monument and who will be author
lied to accept funds by popular sub
scription, which will be added to the
State appropriation. 1t is also plan
ned to have committees appointed in
Covington, Bowling Green, Owens
boro, Frankfort and Louisville to re-
ceive funds for this purpose.
Besides the monument, suitable
tablet to mark the spot where Cover
nor Goebel was shot will be provided
for.

Good Roads Accommodation,

Besides providing for a permanent
highway improvement organization,
with headquarters in Chicago, the ma
tional good roads convention recently
held In that city adopted certain gen.
eral recommendations made by COM
mittee for the promotion of the end
in view
The first recommendation Is rather
obscurely worded, but 1t seems to
mean that the state should repeal the
provisions of their road laws requiring
people to work SO many days each year
on the roads and substitute therefor
provision requiring cash payment of
road taxes. This is reasonable as far
as it goes, because the labor under this
system Is largely ineffective and mis-
applied; the work is pretty much all
done at one time. which is irrational,
and II Is rarely well directed II was
stated by one of the speakers at the
convention that fully 70 per cent OF
the work done under this system was
thrown away. With the taxes paid in
cash and the money used to buy suii-
able materials and appliances and 10
employ capable workmen and direct
them wisely far more and better re-
suits would be secured at no great ex-
pense. The second recommendation
was that state legislatures make provl-
sion for the employment of convict la
Dor in preparation of material for the
construction of roads. The third rec
ommendation is the passage Of suitable
state laws in aid of the work OF i'm
provement and the appointment OF
