Condition of Affairs i'm New Orleans
Contradictory Reports.

the Times says kellogg and the
Federal authorities anticipate fur
ther disturbances, and are in
frequent consultation as to the
best means of defending the city
in the event of an uprising of the
White League. Beyond doubt another
fight will result from any attempt on
the part of the Kellogg people to search
private houses for arms or to procure
the leaders in the recent revolution.
Kellogg yesterday telegraphed to
Washington that he thinks the city in
a very insecure condition; thinks riot
ing may be apprehended at any mo-
ment, and that the State will not re-
main at peace if the United States
troops are withdrawn; that he had
reason to know that the League move
ment was spreading into the adjoining
States, and that the Order was rapidly
increasing in numbers.
The Times dispatch also says that
three United States war vessels arrived
in the Mississippi, below New Orleans,
last evening, and the health officers
ordered all of them to pass up to the
city without quarantine inspection.
A Washington dispatch to the Times,
however, tells exactly reverse story
of the kellogg reports to the General
Government, and says he gives rose
colored view of affairs in New Orleans
quite at varience with the accounts
furnished by the Press.
Bad Reports from Louisiana Negroes.
NEW YORK, Sept. PA special to
the Herald, from New Orleans, says:
"The sudden and violent change of
sentiment in the colored people since
the Federal occupation is exciting Sc
rious apprehensions. Ladies have been
grossly insulted while passing ON the
streets. Equally unpleasant reports
have arrived from the country, and it
is feared that unless some salutary
measures are adopted the whole power
of the Government will be required to
keep the negro element within bounds.
No violence has yet been reported,
negro men and women confining them
selve to bitter vituperation and horri-
BILE abuse.
Fraudulent ImpOrtations - Germany
and American COnsuIs.
New YORK, Sept. 24.-The Assis-
tant United States District Attorney,
who went to Europe last Spring to
obtain evidence against importers, in
the case of an alleged undervaluation,
has returned. He says he found the
German Government greatly incensed
against this Government, beause it
was thought it had issued commits
sions to its consuls in Europe, author
izing them to call importers before
them for the purpose of extorting in
formation respecting invoices made
out in Europe. Acting upon that sup
position, the German Government has
informed the American Legislation at
Berlin if Consuls of this Government
ATTEMPTED to execute these commits
sions, their eXequaturs would be re-
voked.

From Louisiana Dillon and Gould.
CHICAGO, Sept. 26.-The New York
Tribune publishes a series OF private
letters found in Kellogg's private office
in New Orleans, which tend to show

Congress. Caleb Cushing drew So, 600
from Kellogg and $1,000 to Chandler.
Ben. Butler writes him that his fee in
the Louisiana matter ought to be $3,-
600, and asks the remittance of that
amount. Another letter from w. A.
