ants made an answer which, after argument,
the court characterized as insufficient and or
dered that it be amended and brought into
court by Monday morning at 10 o'clock. There
is very general impression that the court will
issue the mandamus to the board and that
new CANVASS will be made. This new canvass
will operate directly on the state aud Congress

have an Indirect influence on national politics
The face OF the returns on which the new can

THE DISPUTED STATES.
SOUTH CAROLINA.
The Sfafe Funds Licked UD.

COLUMBIA, Dec. 16-Gen. Hampton spent
yesterday with his legal advisers maturing
measures for the formation of the executive de-
partment of the state government He served
nutice on the banks which are state deposito-
ries, to pay cut no public funds upon any
checks or drafts not countersgned by him as
governor OF South Carolina. This will prevent
their paying funds to Chamberlain's govern
ment under any circumstances in the future,
until the legality of the state government is
decided.
Wade HamptOn's Arre.t COntempIa ted
The city is agitated today by rumors that
Gov. Chamberlain is about to arrest Hampton
and Sampson on the charge of treason. This
runor created little ripple of excitement and
developed the fact that such an attempt will be
stubbonly resisted. The general expression
was that Hampton could not be arrested BY an
official of Chamberlain's and that he would
not be permitted to submit to any arrest other
than by soldiers of the UDted States. Some
thing OF this sort may be contemplated, but it
IS doubtful whether 1t ever will be attempted.
Proceedings of the Mickey House.
In the Mackey House to-day bill providing
for the punishment of any person or persons
setting up or attempting to set up any govern
ment in opposition to the regular government
of the state was passed to third reading with
out opposition.
The Senate Committees Invesiigations
CHARLESTON, Dec 10 New York Times
specially Hampton called on the U. S. Senate
committee to day and had some general con-
versation on the political situation. Butler al
so paid his respects to the committee. The
committee unanimously agreed to take testi-
mouy in secret. They find the same state of
things existing. here as in Mississippi. Wit
nesses are afraid to come forward and testify
in public for fear that vengeance will follow,
and the ouly way to get witnesses before the
committee is to hold their sessions in private.
There will be nearly 200 witnesses examined as
to the manner in which the campaign was
conducted in this state. Testimony was taken
to-day relative to the Hamburg massacre,
which inaugurated the shot gun policy in South
Carolina. There is abundant evidence that the
Hamburg affair was premeditated aud the be-
ginning of concerted plan to carry South
Carolina by intimidation.
No Errors in Canvass Discovered.
COLUMBIA, Dec ia special to the New
York Times says the House investigating COM
mittee has failed y discover flaw in the pre-
cinct returns which would change the electoral
vote as declared by the board of canvassers.
The committee hold one more session tomorrow
and then go on rowing expedition after testi-
mony.
