Man Who is Charged with Killing
VIM. GOebeI.

dispatch from Frankfort, Ky, saws n
crowd packed the Franklin county circuit
court room yesterday to hear the exan1in-
ing trial of Harlan Whitaker the R,1tIsr
county farm hand, suspected Of being i'm
piicated in the murder of GoebeI Several
prominent ladies were present. The charge
was changed from malicious shooting TO
murder.
Charles Howard, a farmer, said Whit
taker told him week before the shooting
that ne had come TO Frankfort to protect
Governor Taylor's life. Howard declared
that just after Goebel fell he saw one of
the Philp0ts and two of the Howards
Berry and Jim, members of well-known
mountain families, in the door of the
ecutve building. heavily armed He said
that he was deputed by the sheriff 20
guard the capitol grounds but was ordered
away by the commanding officer when the
troops arrived. Whittaker's attorneys de-
clined to cross-eXamine any of the wit
nesses for the prosecution.
Wingate Thompson, a policeman who
took Whitaker 10 the jail, said that on the
way the prisoner cried out In his fear:
Don't let them mob me, and I'll tell all
L know about It, but did not shoot him."
New evidence was brought out by F. W.
Bowman of Hardin county, who testified
that a half hour before the assassination
he saw the window on the second floor over
the main entrance to the executive building
raised He could see only the arm of the
man who raised the window and saw two
men standing farther back He said that
when Whitaker was arrested he recognized
the clothes he had on then. and those worn
by the man who raised the window He
said one Of the two men who was standing
back from the window at the time mem
toned said to the other Damn it, We
ought to have killed the other two"
This remark be thinks had reference to
two judges of the court of appeals. The
description of the two men who are alleged
n have held this conversation falliAd Wi
suspects who have been under surveillance,
but who have not been arrested. Sflas
Jones, the Whitley county suspect. testi-
fed that he was in the ante room Of the
executive Office when the assassination &C.
CURED, and from the sound he thought The
shots were fired from the oTiice of the sec
rotary of state At the conclusion Of the
evidence offered by the state Whittaker's
attorneys submitted the case. Judge Moore
ordered Whitaker held to the April grand
jury without bail.

Representative Cummings spoke to the
toast Our navy" and in a tribute to the
service said: THE navy has spoken for
itself. from the time of Paul Jones to the
time Of George Dewey. The navy is the
bulwark of our country. The navy is al
ways the defense of coastwise nation. The
navy saved England when the Spanish ar
mazda came down. Nelson really defeated
Napoleon. In 1872 the United States navy
won the victories Perry's victory on Lake
Erie changed the aspect of the war. In the
civil war the navy was again at the front
Farragut was at New Orleans before Sher-
idan left the peninsula. The victory of the
Monitor over the Merrimae laid the founda-
ton for the victory at Manila and at Sam
tiago. Yet Congress has paraIyzed all eff
forts to increase the size Of our new navy.
The man who would do this Is a traitor in
his heart With the navy we can do any-
thing. Without 1t we will meet what Snsin
did at Manila. We have the men-give us
the ships. Maintain the navy above ali
else.'
