PEACEFUL CONDITION OF THE STATE.
THE REPORTS OF THREATENED VIOLENCE UNTRUE
DETERMINATION OF THE PEOPLE NOT TO toll
ERATE THE UsURPATIoN LONGER THAN NECEs-
sARY-THE OPPOSITION TO THE COMPROMISE
DYING OUT.
NEW ORLEANS Oct. 8.-The sensational reports as
to threatened disturbances in the interior parishes
of Louisiana are without foundation. The United
States soldiers have been received well every
where except at Bayou Soula, where the negroes
for while manifested opposition to their
presence, and they have had no difficulty in rein
stating Kellogg officials. 1t is certain. however
that if the troops were withdrawn from the State
these officials would be again quietly deposed in
accordance with the settled purpose Of the
people to tolerate the usurpation only 80
long as it is supported by the repre-
sentatives of the General Government. The White
League is no where under arms On the contrary,
large orders for arms and ammunition from North
ern firms have been countermanded within the past
two weeks. The organization is maintained,
however, and many of the weapons taken
from the arsenal ON the day Of the
coup d. etat have not been returned Tue
opposition to the arrangement called
compromise is dying out, because the majority of
the Conserv atives willing to waive their objec-
tons to the terms of the agreement in order to give
the sincerity of the Republicans fair test. Mean
time. the people are anxiously waiting for the prom
ised resignation of two members of the Returning
Board.
