PINCHBACK;S CASE.

SENATOR WEST TO PRESENT HIS CREDENTIALS TO-
DAY-sENATOR MORTON WILL MOVE THAT HE
BE ADMfrTED-A DETERMINATION AMONG TIRE
REPUBLICANS TO SETTLE THE NATTER BEFORE
ACQUIRING.
lBY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE
WASHINGTON, Jan, Ex-senator West will present
to the Senate tomorrow the new credentials Of T. b.
S. Pinchback apd Senator Morton will at once move
that he be sworn in as Senator from Louisiana. A
partial understanding has been made among the Re-
publicaps who support Senator Morton that il this
is opposed, and o disposition shown to reopen the
Louisiana debate, they will "sit il ont" and have
vote before adjourning even it it takes all night
Mr. Pnchback's friends believe that his case is
stronger on the new credentials than the
old, since HE new claim will have nothing
to DO with the events OF 1872 and will
not rest on the validity of tho election
of that year They seem TO forget that the present
Kellogg Legislature is of doubtful legality that
chosen in 1672 and that if it proved that ma
iority of those who were elected to it last Fall were
Republicans there is no evidence that quorum was
present at the time of Pinchback's pretended cleo
ton. But fortunately there is no doubt that the
present so-called Legislature is not legally organ
lied body, The House Sub Committee has unani-
mously reported that large majority Of those elected
last Fab were Conservatives and that they were
cheated out of their seats by the illegal action OF the
Returning Board. This is q fact that cannot be con-
troverted and the Senate If it adntsMI Pinchbavk,
will do 20 with its eyes open to It,
