Frankfort Ky., Feb.29.—It was stated to-night by those in charge of the Goebel assassination case that sufficient evidence has been secured to prove one of the most diabolical conspiracies in the history of the country. The detectives have run down nearly all the clews, and have loeated their man preparatory to making arrest. Nearly all the wit- Resses have given written statements which are backed by circumstantial evidence. _ The detectives are trying hard to p their work a secret, but through other sources bits of the information Fare gradually coming to light. A ‘prominent Lawrenceburg citizen says that a man employed in the Execu- tive building was there shortly after the assassination, and told him and, several others he was in the main of- of secretary of state when the Pshot was fired. He said he saw Goe- bel fall, and then the door to the sec- Tetary of state's office was opened ‘and several men were seen in there With rifles. A democratic representative from western Kentucky, who fears he would e killed if he spoke publicly, has de a private statement that he tanding near the entrance to e executive building, nearest the tate house. when he saw a moun- others with the mountaineer did like- | wise. He has given the man’s name to the proper persons, and steps have been taken to see that he does not} escape. He is now back in his moun- tain home. It is believed that the shots fired | by the men at the door were intended ! only to attract attention to that quarter, in order to protect the real assassin. Just after Senator Goebel was shot the wife of a republican attorney rushed up to two well-known Frank- fort ladies and a young man and said, between sobs: “7 hope you do not think my hus- | band had anything to do with this. He advised against it.” This statement supported by three | witnesses, will result in the bringing | in of the republican attorney as a witness and he will be forced to tell | when, where and under what circum- | stances he advised against the assas- | sination. “There is no doubt of ourability to | prove the conspiracy,” said one of | the men. “We expect to run down a few more points, but evenif we should | be unsuccessful we already have | several days conferring with the lead- Will Bring Silver Men by Hundreds Summit Items. | Washington, D.C., Feb. 25.—Judge | Summit Center,O whataspot, _ A.
