?Syi
of Agreement Between Hep*
resentativesxrf ^publicans
and Ddmocnito
Presented to and Taken Under
Consideration by Governor
Tayldr.
Gives No Hint of His Intentions,
bnt It Is Believed He Will
Acquiesce.
Ky., Feb. 7.—The news
of the agreement reached iv Louisville
was received with great relief in Frank
fort. The strain of the last ten days
has been very great and any lessening
of tension was most welcome to the
members of both parties. Not a single
member of the legislature, Democratic
or Republican, is in the city, and none
is expected before late in the afternoon.
Governor Taylor refused to discuss
the agreement until it hud been brought
to him. He said it was neither right or
courteous for him to do so. He, how
ever, made the assertion that if the
Goebel law was repealed and an elec
tion law given to the people of Ken
tucky which would insure a fair and
honest count of the votes as cast, lie
would allow no personal ambitiou of his
i.wn to stand in the way of a peaceful,
adjustment of the troubles.
It was 10-30 o'clock before Judge
Yost and Mr. Sweeney, the Republican
attorneys, arrived from Louisville,
General Dan Lindsay of Louisaille be
ing with them. They had the agree
ment and'carried it at oncc to Governor
Taylor's office and the door was locked
upon all outsiders.
It is generally believed flint Governor
Taylor will accept the agreement, al
though he has as yet given no positive
assurance that he will do so. He savshe
will carefully consider the legal points
involved and will probably announce
his decision in the morning.
TIIIH
thr Agreement.
Following is the agreement presented
to Governor Taylor for Ids signature:
First—'That if the general assembly
shall adopt a resolution ratifying their
recent action adopting the conference
report seating Goebel and Beckham, the
contestees. W. S. Taylor and John Mar
shall shall submit without further pro
test.
Second^-Tliat all jmvtiw shall unite
inau effort to brii ab..ut such a modi
fication of the election law as will pro
vide for nonjiartisan election boards and
insure free and fair elections.
Third—That the conditions shall re
main in statu quo until Monday, the
general assembly meeting and adjourn
ing from day to day until tliat time.
Fourth—That nothing shall be done
hinder or prevent, a joint session of the
general assembly for taking action on
the ratification resolution.
Fifth—Tlxat the state contest board
ehall meet and adjourn from day to day
until Tuesday, without taking any ac
tion on the contests for minor state of
fices. This postponement, is suggested,
in order that the action of the general
assembly on the ratification resolution
may be taken first.
Sixth—That the state troops shall be
removed from the state capital at. once,
though with all necessary precaution for
the public safety. This matter is to be
under the direction of General Dan
Lindsay of Frankfort.
Seventh—That the Republican officials
and officers of the state guard shall have
immunity from cliarges of treason,
usurpation, courtmartial or any other
such offenses.
In Statu Ouo Until Momln.v.
Until Monday, while the situation is
in statu quo. Governor Taylor will re
main in possession of the executive
buildings, while the Republicans will
recognize him, and the Democrats will
recognize Governor Beckham as gov
ernor.
After the conference, Governor Beck
ham at once took a train for Frankfort.
Senator Blackburn and ex-Governor Mc
Creary remained in Louisville over
liigbt. The course of events in the im
mediate future depends largely upon
Governor Taylor. An important in
fluence in shaping the Republican policy
has been, no doubt, the lack of support
from the national administration for the
course pursued by Governor Taylor
Bince he assumed office. The hi test
manifestation of the feeling at Washing
ton is the following telegram from Sen
ator Deboe to Governor Taylor which
was in the hands of the Republican con
ferees before the meeting:
"The unanimous sentiment here is
that you are wrong in preventing the
legislature front meeting, and that you
should submit the disputed questions to
the civil courts. Federal assistance can
not be given you on your requisition so
long as the legislature is in session or
can be convened. There is no doubt but
it can be convened if yon will permit.
The Democrats intend that if any vio
lence occurs you shall be the aggressor.
You will, by forcible resistance, alienate
all who formerly sympathized with
your case. No assistance. Answer."

CHICAGO, Feb. 7.—A special to The
Chronicle from Tacoma, Wash., says:
Hong Kong advices state that the
natives of British North Borneo have
risen against the British there. They
pillaged stores at Gaya Bay and threat
ened Lagun. The British gunboat Rat
tler has gone to Gaya Bay. A force of
six policemen and marines were dis
patched but turned back when rebels
fired'on them from ambush, killing
four. The campaign promises to be
jungle warfare of the most severe kind.

DULUTH,
Feb. 7.—The Manila Iron

erties of the Minnesota Iron company,
which latter is a constituent company of

VLCTORTA, B. 0., Feb. 7.—Advices
trcn Dawaoa state that up to the end
of the year business in tho Yukon capi
tal has been diaoouragicgly dull, nl
though work on the claims was progress
ing well. Up to Dec. 30 the weather had
been so mild that but little gravel hnd
been got out, although after that dnte
this impediment of temperature was re
moved. The thermometer dropped to
40 degrees below zero and ranging as
low as 67. There is now a good showing
on the dumps.
The Dawson banks estimate that ?3l,.
000,000 will be taken out this season.
From 2,000 to 8,000 Dawsonites nre ar
ranging to leave on the first boats down
the river in the spring for the Nome
field." At White Horse the police have
under arrest two men suspected of the
murder of Clayton, Reelf and Olson on
the trail.
The Dawson fire destroyed only eight
buildings occupying half a block. As
the buildings were all fliuisily con-'
structed and lined with cotton, it is con
sidered surprising that the fire was con
fined to so few buildings. Dawson has
a well equipped fire department, with a
force of 30 paid men.
