So ————— i Yo wi * A TRAGEDY IN KENTUCKY Terrible Fight Between Widely Known Politicians. ‘One Falls Before the Knife and the Other to the Pistol. “= At 1:45 o'clock in the afternoon Colonel William Cassius Goodloe, Collector of Inter. nal Revenue of the Seventh Kentucky Dis trict, and Colonel Armstead M. Swope, met on the Postoffice corridor at Lexington, Ky, ‘Both were after the mall that was in their lotter boxes, which are rather close together, They aporoached these boxes at almost the same instant, and when each saw who the other was they glared at each other flercely, and one of the two, it cannot be discovered which, exclaimed: **You spoke to me; you insulted me." This was followed by some angry words from the other man. At this instant they straightened up, and each drew a weapon at the same moment, Swope a revolver and Goodloe a clasp knife. As soon as the wea wera drawn Swope fired, and Good- Joe knocked the revolver down as it went off, the ball en his abdomen on the right side. Goodloe then an stabbing his oppo- nent in the breast with his knife, which forced Swope backward toward the moncy-order door. by Goodloe, Swope fired again, missing Good- loe. In a moment after firing the second shot Colonel Swope fell on his face and died almost instantly. On his person were found thirteen wounds—on his back, arms, and in his breast. Immediately after the killing Colonel Goodloe walked to a physician's office, where his wounds were examined. fectly cool and made a disposition of his property in cass of death, | e cause of the difficulty was a statement | made in the Republican Convention of May thirds of the Favetta County delegation in the Convention did not speak to Swope. The correspondence betwean the men oo | | men took Owen Andrews, colored, curred about the middle of May, 1888. It was very brief, and simply withdrew the | remarks each had made about the other Since that trouble they have never spoken to each other, and since their differences were settled by the correspondence they have never spoken of each other, acting as if the other had never existed. The only persons who saw the fight were Postmaster McChesney, who was just issuing a money order, William K. Shelby, who was in the money order lobby, and Harry Swift, a postal clerk. Shelby aided Goodloe in reach ing the physician's office sate in the night Goodloe gave the follow ing version of the difficulty: He said that as be went toward his Postoffice box he saw Colonel Swope ting his mail, and, and as he did not wish a difficulty, he waited for Swope to get away with his mail and go out, But after he had procured his mail, Swope still stood in fromt of his box Goodlos politely said “Will yom please allow me to get my mail” The trouble then began, and with few words Colonel Swope drew his revolver and attempted to shoot Goodloe in the head, He knocked the pistol, and it went off, the bullet foing through a package of papers Goodloe d in his band, and into his abdomen, He attempted to ward off the revolver until he could get his knife out, and when he did, he began cutting his assailant as rapidly as possible until he fell. First Assistant Postmaster-General Clark. son being interviewed at Washington, said “In the Republican party of the nation there are few men better or more widely admired than Colonel Goodloe. The announcement of Jue : y will al like a per son ef to thousands of Republicans. pel lod could have had recognition under the present Administration, but he erred to stay in Kentucky because of his ness interests He was a man of abso- jute fearlessness, manly, and generous.” The intelligence of the tragedy was a pro found shock to a large number of persons in Washington. Colonel Goodlos had many friends in the capital and was high. ly esteemed prominent leaders of both tical parties. As a member of the blican National Committees he naturally enjoyed the confidence of the chief public men of the Republican party, and his cour- tesy, genial nature, and general lovable character gave him a warm place in the affections not only of those with whom he was in political accord, but of those with whom he differed on national affaires.
