amined on Friday and Saturday, and
claims Of contestants nearly all de-
cided, tho business of the members
yesterday morning consisted chiefly
In preparing their reports. The ses.
sion WAS strictly private. At the
close of the session, Mr.. Wheeler in
formed representatives of tue press
that the committee had closed inves.
tigatiou aud made awards in cases Of
nineteen representatives, whose
claims were submitted to their arbi-
tration. From all the evidence which
had come into their possession al
we'll as during tho previous investiga'
ton Of election, lie said the members
of the committee had unanimously
agreed in their award, but for reasons
which the public could appreciate, il
had been decided not to make the
report of their deliberations known

committee would bo forwarded al

returns of elections submitted to them
for examination, and that o special
session Of the House Of Representa-
tives Of Louisiana would bo conven.

upon. Il 10 understood that Mr.
