The Arkansas Trouble.

Baxter and Brooks both claim to
to have been elected Governor of Ar
kans in 1872. The Legislature cam
vassed the vote aud decided in favor
Of Baxter, and accordingly he took
possession of the office and assumed
its duties. Brooks commenced suit
to oust Baxter, and the courts of the
State declared lack of Jurisdiction
in the case. Nothing further was
done until a few days since, when
Baxter's attorneys requested that the
case be taken up on demurrer for the
purpose Of disposing of it. The
agreement was then made between
the attorneys of the two parties that
the case should be argued the next
week. On Monday, 18th, during the
absence Of Baxter's counsel, Brooks
attorney stated 10 the court that II
had been agreed between himself
and Baxter's counsel that demurrer
to the jurisdiction should be submit
ted. This created new alarm or sus-
picion as to any intention upon the
part of Brooks to take undue advant-
age. His real intent was discovered
when at Il a. m, Tuesday, the Judge
announced his decision overruling
the demurrer. Baxter's counsel not
being present to take any steps in ar
rest of Judgment, the court issued IA
judgment of custer. The writ was
placed i'm the hands of the sheriff,
and in five minutes Brooks, at the
head of an armed band, entered the
Governors office and demanded pos
session. Baxter declined to give up
the office or 20 out of the room ex-
cept by compulsion. Brooks men
led Baxter out. Gen. Cattorsen,
claiming to act as Brooks Adiutant
General, forced an entrance into the
armory, in the State House, and took
possession of hundred stand of
arms, Baxter's Adjutant General re-
fusing to deliver the keys.
Brooks still occupies the State
House, which is strongly barricaded
and defended. Baxter has estab-
lished headquarters at st. Johns
College. Both contestants have tel
egraphed to President Grant for
armed assistance, but were refused,
the President regarding tas. 4 mat.
ter to be settled by State laws and
authorities.
Large forces of armed men are
! Joining both parties. Brooks issued
proclamation last Saturday COM
nanding all men under Baxter to
disperse within "a hours or suffer the
consequences. 5000 men joined Bax-
ter on Saturday.

Kramer, OF Little Rock, to-day teIe-

asked If the people of Arkansas have
not patriotism enough TO allow the
question as 10 who shall hold State
Office to be settled peaceably and
