A. nUILUING , COR. 1UTII AND DOUGLAS STS. the building from which the shooting was done was enough to make trouble for htm. Colonel John Davis , custodian of Iho cap ital grounds , tells a story that agrees with that of Whlttnker. iAs Boon as It was known that the bul let which struck down Mr. Goebcl 'had ' come from the building to the cast , a group of men gathered In front of the door on the cast sldg. Others ran around to the door on the west aldo ( o prevent the escape of anybody from there. Several men at tempted to enter the floors from the out side , but were prevented by groups of mountaineers who stood In the doorways. Some of these men held Winchesters in their hands and presented an aspsct BO un inviting that no attempt was made to search tho. building and nobody gained en trance to H for Bevoral minutes after the shooting' had been 'done nnd the assassin had had ample opportunity to escape. Carefully Lnlil Plan. That the shooting of Mr. Goobel was the result of a. carefully-laid iilan Is without question. The man who did the work had ovldontly 'taken ' his stand at the window which had previously been raised In order to allow the free passage of the bullet , and waited until his victim was In full eight before ftrinij. Ever since the influx of the mountaineers last week a largo number of them have been sleeping In the upper part of the state house. It is not known , however , that any of thcso men did the work or that they had any knowledge of the premeditated crime. Tljpro has not , 'so far , been discovered ! the slightest direct evidence pointing to any man and It Is not likely that any will ever bo found. The man who fired the shots took the precaution to conoeaKlits location by using BmokftlDS8'pow4tei'l'cartrJclgc'B.ft iA' score of people ' wor.cCwj erZfc'tbQy M Juil .yjlv of tbo sl'dj of the buHdlng from which the ' ' ' .

Uenoiiiiuoil l > y ItfiitilillciuiN. The republican state odlclals and members of the legislature without exception de nounced the shooting In the most immeasur able terms. Governor Taylor Immediately caused a email address to be published In which ho declared the affair to be a disgrace and an outrage and calling for the most sober condemnation. He sent orders at once to , Adjutant General Collier directing him to take steps for the preservation of. ordor. General Collier Is a republican and Is op posed to Mr. Goebcl. Ho declared the bhoot- Ing to be a most cowardly affair and ono that upon every consideration was to bo re gretted. Ho lost no time In limiting speeches , however , and tieforo Goebel had been lifted from the ground to bo carried to the hotel General. Collier bad telephoned to the armory , a half-mile distant , directing the local Infantry company , which was sta tioned there'- under command of Captain Walcott , to proceed at once to the capltol grounds , toke pOHsejiilon of them mid Its approaohcs , allowing nobody to enter the catcs. Twenty minutes after the shooting Captain Walcott and his men marched across the front of the capltol building and baited at the foot of the steps. Orders were Issued to outside companies throughout the state to make ready to come to Frankfort , the entire stat'C ' guard being cuiicd Into servlct. It wdB feaied tliat-tl'C news of the shooting wo. ild bo Intiame the democrats that they wou'ul come lo Frankfort In swarms , while the moiiiitatnecro would lose no time In coming to the capital for the purpose of up holding their party principles. lFiiin uifH Orriitly Usclti-il. The excitement amonc the followers of Mr. Goebel was generated and for n time immediately following the shooting of their leader , there was moro than a pcojlblllty that eomo of the hotheads would seek ven geance upon their political enemies. ThreaU were made against republican leaders and attornoyn during tbo 'excitement , but leadIng - Ing democratic members of the house and senate soon brought them to calmer talk. An the news spread thn ugh the- streets that Qocbel hud. been fhoi , men began to pour toward tbo capital grounds from nil Hides , one throng being led by two firemen , one of whom carried n Winchester rll'.i' , which the other finally pievallcd upon hint to lay uslde. A shooting affray occurred In a saloon about this time , Craig Ireland , u sporting man , 'fatally wounding Ike Williams , a negro. Tko men were In an altercation when Williams struck Ireland , who prowp'.lr ent a bullet through tbo negro's stomach. Ireland was locked up. This uccand shoot ing caused treat excitement for a ( line and It wan thought the long-threatened political shooting In ccncrul all ulrng the Una liud been Inaugurated. Tula affair bad nothing to do with the political situation. Senator-elect Hlackburn , who was In Washington , was Informed of the shooting through the loug-dlstanco telephone and sent back u message , urging the democrats ) ! o remain quiet and take no rath action of ny sort. The evening trains did not bring as large a crowd of peopleas was expected , Word Just before retiring , If your liver ii aluffiUliiOUt of tune and you fenldull , bilious , constipated , laUo ft dose ct you'll bo all right In the mornine. I had been received from Covington , Ky. . the homo of Mr. Goebcl , that n largo crowd would bo down , but not over a. score ot people came In nnd they were not of the class that create disturbances. Nu'.neroua Inquiries were received by members of Iho legislature from their constituents netting If they' were needed. In all cases word was Kent back that nobody was needed and that crowds , least of all things , were wanted just now. Several small places In the neighbor hood of Frankfort sent In a man or two to obtain a general Idea ot the situation and carry reports back. In every cns the mes senger , whether democratic or republican , was sent back with the word that now wns a good time to keep out ot Frankfort.

I heard a keen , sharp rrack of a Winchester rifle and saw Goebcl throw both hands to hlo right side. He reeled and Colonel Chlnn Jumped forward to catch him. Before bo could do KO the senator fell to the ground , My first Impulse was to see who fired the shot. I saw the llgure of a man at the third- story window nnd am sutUfted he fired It.

Mr. ( lelgor said that'he had bcpn the re-publican candidate for the senate from Klathcad county. Ho was asked whether ho had not said In his speech ac cepting the nomination that his vote could not bo purchased for a democrat for the Kcnntr. Ho replied that It was his Intention to convey the Idea that ho could not be "handled. " Ho had said that If ho sold out ho hoped his constituents would tnko him out and hang him , "and I still feel that way , " ho said , Ho had not said that ho would not vote for any democrat , but It had bee his In tention to prevent a deadlock. He had also said that thcro were other matters moro Important to como before the legislature thnn the election of some rich man for the United States senate. Upon being questioned concerning his Ihinnclnl condition when he was nominated ho said "It was just moderate. " He had been In the Intel business and sold out : ho could not remember Just how much he received , but after much questioning said ho thought the amount was about $25. Hn also received $200 from his mother's estate and had borrowed $300 for the campaign. After he was given his seat he had voted twice for Leonard for senator and then for \V. A. Clark. Mr. Gelger hesitated considerably over what money ho had deposited In the National bany at Kallspell during the session of the legislature , but admitted that In May last ho had bought a draft for $2,500 , paying currency for It. Ho had afterward In August opened an account at that bank , depositing $800 In currency In the name of "John H. Oclger , agent. " Slnco that time he had made other de posits and had borrowed from the bank $2,300. Ho had gotten the $2,500 first de posited from several sources , Including $500 or $600 for his service nnd mileage in thu legislature. "Some of It I got at poker and tlu > faro bank , " he said , and added : "I don't re member whether I won any at poker my experience was about even ; but at faro bank I'dld. " "Did you win $2,000 at faro ? " "It was some short of $2,000 , but at Helena and Uutto together I think I quit about $1,500 , or $1,800 ahead. " "You were u state senator ; did you not know It was n misdemeanor to play faro ? " "Well , I was about as conscientious in that matter as some other Montana offi cers. " Continuing , he said he had never made any great winning at one time , never more limn $180 , but he had been uniformly lucky and had played often. He had also gotten $100 In money for mining stocks fcold to Spokane parties.

Ho maintained that the United States owed as much to the Filipinos as It does to the Cubans , to whom , by resolution o" congress self-government had been prom ised , and he strongly urged that hlo resolu tions declaring It to bo the Intention of this government to confer the right of govern ment upon the Filipinos bo adopted , not only as a means of terminating the war , but of extending to : v struggling people Justice and freedom. As Bacon was concluding a lively col loquy occurred between him nnd woveral other senators. Spooner Inquired on what theory Bacon proposed a declaration by this congress that could In any way bind subsequent congresses. Bacon responded that the game declara tion which the Flfty-Blxth congress had made with reference to the Cubans ought to be made with refercnco to the Filipinos. Congress had the right to make such a declaration , even If H were not binding upon future congresses. Teller , the author of the Cuban resolu tion , said that ho had not Incorporated In the resolution the people of all Spanish possessions acquired by 'the United Staten in addition to tlio Cubans. Ho believed that the United States stocd before the world committed to the self-government of the Filipinos that Is , such self-government as they were capable of. He maintained that the pacification of the Islands must be the first object of the United States , however. He regretted that this pacification now must bo by tbo sword , The pension calendar was taken up.
