CHICAGO, Dec. 3l.-A Warrington
special says that . prominent Con-
sentative now in Washington, who IL
known to have the confidence Of Demo-
Gratis In Louisiana, says that Democratic
leaders are opposed TO any revolution
AIRY movement for any purpose. They
all encouraged tho ''bluff game" against
the returning board, in the hope OF
securing tho seturn Of q majority in the
House, but threats were made without
any intention Of executing Thorn. Demo-
cratic leaders will not encourage revolu-
ton for two reasons: First, because they
believe that revolutionary movements
would prejudice them before the
Congressional COMMITTEE; and second.
because such q movement might
result in tho re-establishmsnt OF
a military government. They would
have been willing to accept q majority
OF Ave for or against them. They be-
lisve they can control by bribery and
Aattsry q sufficient number Of negro vo-
tiers TO give them q preliminary organic
alton OF the House. Under the circum.
stances they will not attempt to install
members by fierce, but by attempting TO
prevent tho arrival OF colored Redubli-
can members from the parishes and by
other . will endeavor TO arrange 1t
20 that q sufficient number Of colored
representatives from the country
will DO absent when the House
Is organized to secure control
OF the organization Of the House to the
Democrats. They will refuse 10 make
appropriations for mileage per diem on
expenses to officers OF Kellogg's State
Government, and will thus seek TO Grip
pie II. They will also attempt to get
control OF two-thirds Of tho Senate and
then impcach both Kellogg and Antoine.
Failing to get the necessary two-thirds
In the Senate the Democrats on the last
day OF the session will prefer articles OF
impeachment simultaneously against
Kellogg and Antoine. and suspend them
from Office. Tho Democratic speaker
would then become Governor until the
Legislature could act on the case. The
session Of the Legislature by the
constitution is limited to sixty
days, no extra session could
DO called except by the acting Gov.
srnor, who would DO the Democratic
Speaker, and he Of course would not
call one meantime. the acting Governor
would have the means to make all APP
pointments which the Constitution and
laws give to tho Governor. He would
be able to disintegrate tho Republican
party by the distribution Of numerous
valuable offices.
