last night that the Indictment had been
found, but the fact was not definitely as
eertained until today. the court officers
and the members of the grand jury having
been warned BY Judge Cantriu 10 keep
the matter a secret
The Indictment was found by the Frank
lin county grand jury yesterday, after a
stormy scene which came near resulting
in a personal difficulty between Robert
suter, the Democratic foreman of the jury,
and w B. George. on OF the two Republic
an members. According to the information,
after the finding of indictments against
Green Golden and John Davis, also chsrg-
ed with being accessories to Goebel's mur-
der. the vote on the question OF indicting
Taylor was called for.
At this juncture Jaryman George arose
and said that he was opposed to the finding
Of an Indictment against TaylOr for the
reason that to ''indict the Governor would
be an awful disgrace to the State" He
talked at some length along this line and
concluded with the declaration that be
would vote against any such measure.
Frank Stage. the other Republican mem
her, coincided with the views Of Mr..
George. There was some discussion
among other members as to the strength
Of the testimony against Taylor George
admitted that il was as strong as that on
which others. charged with completely. had
been indicted but again declared that he
would not be party to the disgracing
Of the State by bringing an indictment
against its Governor"
Here Foreman Suter is alleged TO have
said: Why, the indictment of a man as
guilty as Taylor has been shown TO be be-
fore this jury can be no disgrace TO the
State; on the other hand you are dis
graeing the State by your action"
This iIfuriated George and he made
rush for Suter, who was losing no time in
getting toward George. However. before
they could come together, other members
prevented a conflict. Matters were smooth
ed over and a vote taken on the indictment
resulted as follows:
For-Robert Suter. c. W. Bridgeford.
George Brock. B. F. Brumback, S. D. Cain.
