Further Troubles and Rascalisy in Lon
isiama.
New YORK, Nov. 13.-The Herald's New
Orleans special of last night is as follows:
Governor Kellogauent letter this after
noon to the returning board, requesting them
to give the Democrats a representation among
them, but as yet they have not done so. The
Democrats have appointed three members of
the state committee as watchers by invitation
of the board.
At the mass meeting of White Leaguers,
speeches by Gen. Ogden and DIR. Burns were
made and resolutions passed pledging the
White Leaguers to protect colored men in the
right to vote as they wished, and appointing a
committee to prosecute all radical negroes who
assault and shoot Democratic negroes.
The returning board refuse to appoint any
Democratic members, but will allow three
members of the Democratic state committee to
be present. This is believed to mean a count
in for the Republican ticket. The White
Leagne circles are excited and threats are made
to lynch the board and Republican leaders if
they do so.
Additional ammunition was issued to some
companies yesterday.
The Democrats concede the loss of two con :
gressmen-Breaux and Moore.
The Vote Counting Trouble.
New ORLEANS, Nov. 13.-The returning
board, which met to-day, received Conserva-
tive committee of three, and authorized like
committee of Republicans to be present. The
Conservatives gave notice of desire to file a
protest against the board canvassing the re
turns on the ground: First, that the law ere.
ating the board was unconstitutional; second,
that the law gives them judicial pow ers which
they should not possess; and, third, admitting
it to be constitutional, its personnel was not
according to the spirit or letter of the law.
Gov. Wells replied that the cOnstitutionality
of the law was thing, for the courts to decide,
but he believed that the board was properly
and legally organized. The Conservatives were
allowed until tomorrow morning to file their
protest.
Gen. Anderson made some remarks relative
to his desire to have fair count, and of his
unwillingnsss to resign if called upon. He
was followed by Gov. Wells and Mr.. Casuave.
Gov. Wells said they must have legal count,
but as some doubts were expressed regarding
the integrity of the board he would be glad to
surrender his place to a more acceptable party.
A momber of the board favored taking up the
city returns first, in order that the officers
elect might take their place at the proper time.
The Conservatives then showed a resolution
passed by the city officers-elect, wherein they
pledged themselves not to enter on the duties of
office till all the returns of the stare were can
vasSed.
