This story is written in the first per-
son by an anonymous author. Ac-
count is given OF a trip around the
world. as 1t appears to the maid of a
rich English family. Considerable
mention is made OF the places of In.

The killing Of Chas. Speickert was
one of the most sensational tragedies
that has taken place in this section.
Speickert was employed in the yards
of the Illinois Central at Mounds,
coming and going from and to his
home in Mound City every day He
had gone to work as usual on the
fatal morning. and was engaged In
picking up iron in a wheelbarrow
between the tracks. Nothing had
been seen of him by anyone. during
the forenoon but nothing was thought
of this. II was some time after noon
when his body was accidentally found
lying near a freight car, his wheel

body presented a horrible sight, the
head almost severed from the body,
the face and hands slashed, and many
wounds in the body.

liam Goebel, last night prepared a
statement to publish in which they
expressed their gratitude for relief
from the great burden and to their
old friends in Kentucky and their
new friends in Indiana that had stood

their innocence OF the murder, and
their wish to be freed of its stigma.
Their statement follows: The
final ending by Governor Wilson OF
the terrible reign OF wrong and per-
secution Of innocent men IN Ken

that there Is God in Israel and
that right will not reign forever on
the scaffold. nor wrong forever on

Not End Desired.

"While the action OF Governor
Wilson ends these prosecutions, II
does not bring the end We would
have preferred. For nine years We
have pleaded for a trial-a fair trial.
There has never been a moment dur
ing all this time when we would not
have been willing ana were anxious
to return to Kentucky for such trial.
These pleas for simple justice have
already been denied. The action OF
Governor Wilson is doubtless the
voice of his deliberate convictions
that no such trials were intended, on
could be had.
Taylor stated that he would never
return TO Kentucky TO make II HIS
home. He has established a law prac-
tee in indianapolis and has made
business connections here that are
permanent.
