dials of Frankfort discoveredimportant clew in the case ailepwitness to the bloody dead Th i

witness is a large tree thd truhk 0which it is believed received theassassins bullet after tr passedthrough Goebels body

The clew which is considered ofmore importance than any yet dis-

covered¬

wus found by Officer ZtchT Thomasson one of the most cap-

able¬

of the local officials If it isthe bullet fired by the assassin i

establishes as a Tact the generalbelief that the mann whc fired itstood within the office of the Secre ¬

tary of State on the first floor of theExecutive building and at a pointwithin twentyfive yards of the doorof the office in which Mr Taylorsat at the time of the shootingMeasurements by a surveyor madeunder direction of CommonwealthsAttorney Franklin from the baseof the tree where the bullet entered I

to a window in the west end of thabuilding lower floor front provedthe angle toe perfect and a wireline stretched Between the twtipoints showed that a man standingat the spot s here Goebel fell andgoing in the direction in which hewas moving at the time he wasshot would have been struck by abullet in the same spot whore hewas hit and that the bullet wouldhave taken the same course throughthe body

The tree in which the bullet tvafound stands on the western side othe legislative building less thanthirty feet from the front entranceto the grounds A block of woodseveral inches square containingthe leaden missle was cut from thetree and without the removal ofthe bullet from it was turned overto CommonwealthsAttorney Franklin He scaled it up and laid itaway to awit the arrest of the con ¬

spirators which from present indi ¬

cations will bu made within two

weeksOfficerThomasson who discov ¬

ered the lodging place of the bulletis one of the boat marksmen in theState He was on duty near theStatehouses on the day of the shoot ¬

ing and helped to carry Gov Goebelto the Capital Hotel from the spotwhere he fell Going to that spotyesterday afternoon he placed him ¬

self in the position in which Goebelstood and placed a stick across hischest at the same distance from theground as where the bullet enteredGoebels body One end of the stickpointed directly to the windowabove mentioned in the executivebuilding The other end pointedtoward a tree in the western side ofthe yard From where I stoodsaid heIII could see the torn spotat the base of the tree where thebullet entered I believe that bulletpassed through Gov Goebals body

Shortly after the petition wasfiled a notice was made out an-

rumpFrankfort if he comes to open the

session of the Senate

Louisville Ky Feb 15A peti ¬

tion was filed in the Jefferson Cir ¬

cuit Court Clerks office yesterdayafternoon at 1216 oclock by W STaylor through his attorneys askingfor an injunction to restrainGov J C W Beckham irom a too

tempting to perform any of thefunctions of the office of GovernorKentucky and Gen John BanyfIn filing the petition Mr J Pattorneyslexact minute of filing noted

The only other attempt taken inthe case yesterday was theof a summons on Gov BeckhamSeelbachs Hotel by Deputy SheriffEdward Walters Gen Cattlemanwas not in his office when the Sher ¬

iff was there and the summons toilnot be served on him until today

The failure of the Republican at¬

torneys immediately after filing thepetition to go before one of the Cir ¬

cuit judges and aslc for temporary f

restraining order gave rise to con ¬

siderable comment and the generalimpression was that in filing thesuit the Republicans had no presenidea of fully prosecuting it but diso to forestall the filing of any similar suit ia Judge Cantrills court inFranklin county and also to putofTasfar as possible the final andcertain day of reckoning

The Democrats having filed likeinjunction suits against Mr Taylo-an l Mr Marshall in the FranklinCircuit Court after the filing of theRepublican suit here the first ques-tion that would arise would be theone of jurisdiction whether it layin thi Jefferson Circuit Court or theFranklin Circuit Court This woulddetermine which suit could be tried

The Republican attorneys nothaving applied to any Judge for atemporary restraining order thanlloting of the case to any particulttr division will await the nextthawing to be held by Circuit ClerKJohn H Page This may be dot1
