Radical Report.
NEW YORK, Sept. 23-The Timex cor
respondent telegraphed the follow from
New Orleans, dated Tuesday:
| To-day public feeling has changed very
decidedly, and it is now considered not i'm
probable that even : more serious conflict
than that of last week may shortly occur.
This morning when it became generally
known that the committee had been brok-
en- up and no result arrived at, young and
hOt-headed men of the League took no
pains to conceal their feelings. kellogg
and United States Marshal Packard are
again denounced openly as
Thieves and Liars,
and Assistant Secretary of the Interior
Cowen, who is charged with having been
instrumental in breaking up of the con-
ference, is also abused in unmeasured
terms. During the afternoon, the White
League were constantly in session, and it
is known many advised a continuation of
hostility. Ii they were to go on, they be-
lieve that a military government will at
once be established in the State. 1t is
known that business men and capitalists of
the city who make no secret of having sup
ported the movement, are opposed to fur
ther fighting, and will make no additional
donations to the League. There is no evil
dence that the Southern element wishes to
modest private citizens, and on all sides it
is admitted
Personal Property was Never More
| secure.
Gov. kellogg processes to believe that a
war of determination is to he commenced
against the negroes, but Penn asserts posi-
| lively that such an idea has never been en-
| tertained by even the most passionate Of
the White League. During the evening
the Governor held consultation with Sec
rotary Cowan and the latter telegraphed to
4. p. Field, the AttOrney-G General TO come
| to New Orleans Immediately. 1t is be-
| lieved he wishes to consult him and then
proceed at once in the preparation Of in
| dictments against those prominently engag-
ed in the riots.

citement in the city continues intense, and,

cause suppressed.

politan police, this morning informed Gen.

troops in New Orleans, that he had posi-
tive information of the intention of those
connected with the recent trouble to make
another difficulty in the city within three
days.

posed repeating it. The proposition was
opposed by the bank president, but the re
ply was made to him that the people did

Meeting Of the White Leagues
NEW ORLEANS, Sept. %, II P. M.-The
meeting of the different white Leagues in
the city was very largely attended tonight.
1t was decided that the members should
hold themselves in readiness to act at all
times. The feeling among them IS more
bitter than previous to the fight, and they
argue that the only method whereby kel-
logg can be depOsed is to have another fight,
not because they particularly hate the Fed
eral troops, but to so increase the disturbed
condition of affairs as to necessitate martial
law.
An Outbreak Imminent.
The general opinion tonight is that an
outbreak will occur at any moment, In the
outskirts of the city. Seven companies OF
the Twenty-second Infantry are ordered
into camp tomorrow at Greenville, a
northern suburb of the city.
There is a general feeling of uneasiness
as to the continuance of tranquility in the
State, and public sentiment prefers martial
law to the existing system.
