The End OF the ArkRnsas InveatigatfOB,
From the Cincinnati Commercial.l
The committee of congress to investi.
gate affairs In Arkansas had agreed TO
meet in Little Rock on Thursday of
this week. Judge Poland, OF Vermont,
was there, accompanied by Mr.. Ward,
of Chicago. Mr.. Ssyler, q member OF
the committee, telegraphed to Judge
Poland to know what they proposed to
do, and 10 response to his dispatch re-
celved the following: "I don't think we
shall stay here beyond q week, and
you need not Gomez Mr.. Sayler then
dispatched to Colonel Taylor and Judge
Wiltshire, and received dispatches to the
effect that nothing would be done In the
case. Mr.. Sayler admits that Ii looks
10 him ss II the committee did not
propose to do anything; and Il Is his
opinion that nothing should be done.
IheState OF Arkansas, since its troubles
IN the Brooks-Baxter contest, has had
constitutional convention. That con-
vention arranged for an election of
new State officers. The people of
the State passed the new consti-
tuition by a majority Of seventy-fve
thousand. TheN elected as governor
General Garland, one of the best men
and Rblest lawyers In the State There
Is now entire peace In the State Of Ar
kansas. There Is no military control
there, and everybody submits to the
government that exists. With the ex-
ception OF 8 few disappointed office
seekers, there Is nobody to raise any OBJ
lection to the present control Of the State.
1t seems that Judge Poland, after an in
vestigation Of one day discovered the
fact. There is no State in the south, un-
der its new constitution, and with new
ly elected State officers, that is better
governed than the State of Arkansas.
Governor Garlsnd's proclamation shows
that there is no disposition to interfere
with the rights that the constitution Of
the United STATES and the State give to
sll people, including the eolored people
snd the citizens that have recently cast
their lot with the people of this State.
Arkansas is getting along finely. It's
cotton crop this year is great, and all
she wants is q peaeeable and quiet
home control, and all the people in the
country will 10 her in that desire.

The Conservative Committee FOFcIu <
1he Returning Board 10 a Square
Deal
The Counting of the Votes of ST. James
and Carroll Parishss-FFauds in
West Baton BOuEe, ate.

NEW ORLEANS, November 19.-The
returning board found the st. James par
ish returns correct until reaching poll
seven, which showed one hundred more
votes for BOvee, independent Republi-
can, for the senate, and others, than
were accredited them by the tally lists
in the hands Of the Conservative COM
mittee. The latter protested against the
count being received on the grounds OF
fraudulency. A member of the COM
mittee presented statement in writing
showing that he coul1 prove that the re-
turns from st. James had been taken
out of the hands Of the secretary of state
after their original delivery. He dis
claimed any intention of charging the
secretary OF state with Knowingly COM
mitting any wrong, but could prove that
the returns had bean so removed. Con-
siderable excitement ensued, when q
second return from the same poll was
discovered agreeing with the statement
kept by the Conservatives, thus proving
that the returns had been tampered
with. The latter returns were counted
- the board, and the protest was with
drasT
Seere, gy.ofState Deslonde, in q COM
municstiOn to the returning board, re-
ferring to the charge that the St James
parish returns had been tamperet with
while in his custody, says: "This office
has not now, nor has It ever had, the
charge or custody of any parish returns
of the late election except that Of Or
leans, as directed by law, and these re-
main in the same sealed package as de-
livered to me. A member of the Con-
servstive committee stated that the in
l..
came from q. Z. BOvee, who said he had
access to the office of secretary OF state
in connection with said returns. The
counsel for Mr.. Ola, colored Radical
senatorial candidate, called for the re-
turns of Carroll parish, alleging that the
returns had not been made cut corr sctly,
aud that his client received five hun
dred and thirty-tnree votes more than
was shown in the official statement. A
member of the Conservative committee
protested against counting the returns
from Carroll on the grounds of the elec-
ton having been tampered with after
reaching New Orleans, and that
they had been in the hands
of Mr.. Benham, white Radicai
senatorial candidate, who was seen to
have the tally sheets spread out on a Ia
ble upon which were pens and ink. The
Carroll parish returns were laid over till
next week, and the board resumed the |
city count. Gabe Bebee was arraigned !
before United States Commissioner EN- |
met ID. Craig, charged with alt. ring the |
election returns from West Baton Rouge,
gave bail to appear for examination to-
morrow.
A special from Monroe, Louisiana,
states that, upon the release, by Judge |
Trimble, Of Marshal Selye at Vienna, |

fact that the Democracy voted almost
unanimously for Brooks as against
Baxter. OF the prospects for an early
settlement Of the question, Judge Po-
land does not speak in very hopeful
manner. He regards the issue affecting
the validity Of the new constitution as
one Of very grave importance, and mas
much as it is 3 strictly legal question:
he gives no opinion whatever respecting
Il. The judge also said the testimony
before his committee was about con-
eluded, but the people seemed to have
greater feeling OF security with such
body in their midst, aud ssked earnestly
for its retention. He therefore appointed
Hon. J. d Ward as 8 subcommittee,
ana left him at Little Rock with ser
geant-at-arns and a reporter. He VIII
doubtless find something TO occupy his
time and attention. Judge Poland has

Cause of the sinking.

NEW ORLEANS, November 19.-Di-
vers were at work on yesterday evening
removing the freight from the wreck OF
the Empire, the cabin in the meantime
broke loose and the bodies entangled in
it were doubtless swept away; among
these are included the Kemper family,
and all the other women, cabin-boys,
pantrymen, walters, etc. An investi-
CATION was required before Inspector
Msdatt but nothing definite was arrived
at. As to the real cause of the sinking
the divers who went down in the hull,
report that it was much broken, the
hoS-chains being wrenched completely
out Of the boat, leaving a large hole,
which mnst have been under the water
and caused the vessel, with her heavy
freight, to sink almost Immediately
The boat is said to have been bumped
during the night by incoming boats,
