It bad been determined to keep secret the
news of the death of Mr. Goebel until Mr,
Dackham should have been formally Induoted
into office, and the delay was made greater
by the inability of Dr. MeCormack to leave
the bedroom of Mr. Goebel and make the
proper certificate of death, Until this had
been done the Democratic attorneys were
unwilling that the oath of office should be
administered,
