MarsnalI Would Not Talk

Lieutenant Governor Marshall was one of the republican members of Tuesday nights conference and one of the signers of the agreement He said he was not at liberty |; to discuss the terms of the document fur : ther nor to indicate in what respect the |: published reports of it were inaccurate. l, A majority of the democratic members Z of the legislature are in this city and until E Friday at least the headquarters of that {. body will remain here. About thirty dem- ocra tic members came down from Cinc.n- natl today. Twemty-one more have been here since Sunday, while others are at their homes at nearby towns.
 On Friday it is expected that a quorum of each house will be present. If that IS the case the legislature will adjourn to meet in Frankfort if the peace negotiations are in a satisfactory state. If not regular business will be taken up and the sessions will be continued in this city in accordance with the plans which were being carried out last Sunday when overtures Tor a peace conference were made
 This city will send a large delegation to Frankfort tomorrow to attend the funeral of Governor Goebel. Mayor Weaver and many of the city officials will attend and the democratic clubs will be represented.
 Louisville merchants are much disturbed because of the effect the political agitation of the past few months has had on their business. At this time of the year rSmbers of out of town buyers generally come to the city, particularly from the country. The Merchants and Manufacturers associa- tion,. an organization formed to promote these visits, has received many communi- cations from buyers expressing purpose to postpone their visits until more peaceful times or to abandon them altogether Sev- eral reports from interior cities say:
 All branches of commerce and indus try are proceeding in an orderly and un- Interrupted manner and continue in an un- usually active and prosperous condition. We repudiate the publication of stories to the contrary"

ALL ARE AWAITING TAYLOR'S DECISION The Hitch in the Negotiations Discussed

 Be Interviewed. THE MERCHANTS ARE DISTURBED They Claim There Has Been Considera- ble Falling Of in Trade as Con-
 sequence ot the Politi-
 cal Trouble !.
THE MERCHANTS ARE DISTURBED

Louisville, Ky, 1.-The existence of a lation as to its probable duration, occupied the minds of politicians to the exclusion of everything else today. That another con- ference between the representatives of the two parties may be necessary before final agreement Is reached was indicated by the summoning to Frankfort this evening of republican attorneys who have all along ad- vised the leaders of that party, and some of whom were present at Tuesday nights conference. These included ex-Governor Bradley, Hon. A. F. Wilson and David W. Fairleigh. The last named was said to be out of the city. The others left on an af- ternoon train for Frankfort. They would not talk of the negotiations, not being ad- vised as to the particular points Governor Taylor wishes to discuss with them.
 The republicans of this city are not agreed as to the wisdom of closing the negota- tiohs on the basis of the agreement reported Tuesday night. Postmaster T. H. Baker and some other federal officers think the sacrifice should be made in the interests of peace, while the press and anti anminis- tration faction of the party believe the fight should be kept up. The latter, or Davis faction, held a meeting tonight, at which resolutions were adopted urging Governor Taylor not to sign the agreement.
 John Marshall, republican lieutenant gov- ernor, said this evening so many protests were being made by republicans against the terms of the peace agreement that he was doubtful if 1t would be signed. He said:
 rThe terms of the agreement as published are taken to be literally correct, while such is not the case. There. have been several errorssi in the published statement. The re- publican meeting at Music hall tonight is on the idea that the agreement has been pub ished, but 1t has not been given out cor ,ss..I "

NEW ELECTION LAW DEMANDED Governor Taylor Also Dislikes the Cry of Victory. MAY SIGN AGREEMENT TODAY
 se Telegrams $ i've Been Received from All Pf >f the State Urging the
 ES rnor Not to Change
 His Position.

Frankfort, Ky, February 7.-So far as the situation in the controversy over the gov- ernorship of Kentucky Is concerned there was practically no change tonight.
 Governor Taylor has not yet affixed alis' signature ito the Louisville agreement and although the general opinion is that he will ultimatey do so, the probabilities are that he will not sign 1t until some time tomorrow, if then.
 Governor Taylor himself refused abso- lutely today to make any statement in re- gard to the possible action in the matter. and during most of the day declined to re- celve any callers except his legal advisers.
 It was announced early dn the day that some action might be expected after a. conference between Governor Taylor and Judge Yost, Attorney Fairleigh, Governor Bradley and w. c. P. Breckenridge. The; last three named, however, did mot arrive in Frankfort during the day, and Governor Taylor sent telegrams to General Brad ley, August Wilson, Judge Barr and Att torney Faireigh, asking them to come to, Frankfort for a conference tonight. MT. Wilson was the only one to arrive. and. shortly after o'clock tonight he, in com- | pany with Judge Yost and General Dan. Lindsey, called on the governor and imme- dda tely went into conference with him.
The age-herald., 1900-02-08
Lengthy Conference

Before going into the conference, Judge, Yost stated that 1t. would probably be |. lengthy one.. and that he did not expect any action to be taken. tonight. Up to a late hour no announcement had been made as to the result of the conference. Every section of the Louisville agreement was. gone over carefully, but it is understood that the principal thing under discussion was that section bearing on the passage of a new election law. The repeal of the Goebel law is the one thing most strongly desired by Governor Taylor, and as the language of the Louisville agreement Is considered by him altogether too vague as regards this matter it IS considered pos sible that changes may be made in the way of making the clause more specific before Governor Taylor affixes his signature to the agreement. This, of course, will in- volve further delay it would necessitate. a further conference between the republi- can and democratic leaders who were in- strumental in drawing up the agreement at Louisville. Action of this kind indeed. was intimated by prominent republican today, although nothing either in conflrma- ton or denial could be procured at the executive office

ii,e Cry of Victory

Another cause for Governor Taylor's de- lay in regard to the agreement is said to be the cry of victory or Surrender sent up by the democrats. The agreement as presented to Governor Taylcr is understood to be somewhat different from the published abstracts in that the clause regarding the election law and one or two other matters is much more specific than 1t Is generally understood to be, though still not strong enough to suit him.
 For this reason the rank and file of tho republican party in the state apparently be- lieve there is some foundation for the claims set up by the democrats and scores of telegrams have poured in on Governor Taylor in the past few days urging him not to sign the agreement, but to maintain his present position and await further deyelop- ments.
