kEHR MURDER TRIAL.
Prosecution Springs Unexpected
Witness on the Defense.


Witness on the Defense.
LA CROSSE, Wis, Feb 5.-The sec
ond week of the Kehr murder trial open
ed this morning Theodore Galster, who
was with William Kehr the night kehr
was fatally stabbed, was on the stand.
Galster is not especially bright mentally
and the night of the fighting was SO
badly scared that he had no distinct
recollection of what happened, who at.
tackled Kehr or who did the stabbing.
He was cross examined by six attorneys
for the defense Galsters testimony was
soon badly mixed and knocked into
cooked hat.
The defense thought the prosecution
was completely annihilated, as 1t was
supposed that besides the four defend
ants Galster was the only person who
saw the stabbing but District Attorney
Morris here sprung a surprise. He In
troduced Henry Haller, porkpacker who
witnessed the whole affair, but did not
interfere as he was unarmed. He heard
the talking and cursing, and had no diff
ficulty in identifying the defendants now
on trial. The stabbing occurred down in
the>tenderloin district. A number Of wo-
men inmates have identified the defend
ants, and they will testify that Miller
and his three associates were in several
houses of ill-fame before and after the
stabbing.

seemingly irreconcilible differences In
their contentious of the most important
points at issue
1t soon became evident that the meet
ing could not deal with the question of
transfer of state offices, or even with the
respective claims to these positions. All
it could hope to accomplish was the re-
moval of some Of the obstacles which
stand in the way of securing an ad-
judication of these questions by some
tribunal upon which the principals can
agree. The Democrats at first We're In

to make such extreme concessions. They
have elected to stand on the legality OF
Gov. Taylor's proclamation, though the
abatement to some extent of their bel
lgerency at Frankfort was reflected In
their arguments. This had been expected
since the release of .Alonzo Walker, after
Gov. Tayors military officers had re-
fused to recognize a writ of habeas cor
pus in his case, and the intimation
thrown out today that the military
guard placed upon the state building at
Frankfort Feb. 2 would not be SO rigor-
ously enforced hereafter.
The re-establishment of the civil au-
thority and the suppression of the mil
itary seemed the most promising ground
to work upon, and the efforts Of the con-
ferees were turned In this direction
When the recess was taken at o'clock
all the participants were very reluctant
to talk about what had been done. The
negotiations, it was said, had not pro-
gressed far enough to make expressions
of opinion as to their probable outcome
Of value, while public discussion OF
the matters under consideration might
endanger the cause of the peacemaker.
That progress had been made, however,
was freely admitted, and the partici-
pants in the conference were all hopeful
that the object of the meeting would be
attained.

Nature of ''BOOk Social
The nucleus Of great Elks library has
recently been started in Minneapolis.
When a member of the Spokane, Wash,
Lodge of Elks visited Minneapolis recent
ly he presented the local lodge with
a handsome dictionary as a token of the
esteem in which No. "A is held by the
brother Elks Of the coast city. Then
it occurred to some one that the Spokane
presentation was very good suit to fol-
low, and that If kept up the Minneapolis
lodge could soon have, in addition to
one of the finest lodge halls in the coun-
try and the next to the largest lodge, a
library and reading room of far-reach-
ing possibilities. No Elk can get in to-
night without bringing book.

BECKHAM's BUSY DAY.
The day was busy one for Gov. Beck
ham, Arising early. at his headquarters
at Zelbach's hotel, he spent the first
hours of the day with close personal
friends in his apartments at the hotel.
Among these were Judge Frank Daugh-
erty, of Bardstown, the governors home;
w. B. Kniskern, of Chicago, general pas
senger agent of the Chicago & North
Western, the governors brether-in-law,
and some twenty or more Nelson county
gentlemen.
At 1890 o'clock he started for the resi-
dence Of Col. James Fetter, to see his
mother Mrs Julia Beckham, who came
down from Chicago this morning. 1t was
the first meeting between mother and
son since the latter became governor.
Each was greatly affected.
After returning to his hotel numerous
important conferences occupied the re-
mainder of the day. A large number. of
kilograms and letters of eengratulation
were received by the governor today.
Among them being the following:

NEW NATIONAL GUARD. =
A good deal of interest centered about
Adjt. Gen. Castleman and his new nation
al guard. The general was not at all
well, and was confined to his bed all
day. Recruiting for the battalion of the
First regiment, which 1t had been decided
TO raise, was actively carried on, but be-
yond this there was not much doing in
this branch Of the Democratic state gov
ernment. the most peaceful trend of
events having checked preparations OF
this kind. The general expressed pur-
pose to avail himself, in case it should
become necessary, of the services OF
separate troops which have been or are
being organized In number of Ken
lucky towns to support the Democratic
state officers. In addition arrangements
have been made to utilize city police and
deputy sheriffs If they should be needed.
The Republican legislators who were
here yesterday had disappeared by morn
ing. Some Of the state officers, however,
were in town, among them Attorney Cen
eral Clifton j. Pratt and Commissioner
of Agriculture Throckmorton. Neither
