| WASHINGTON, d. c., December G-Cham-
berlain publishes another dispatch in the
New York Tribune. He SAYS that the
United States troops Mt COLUMBIA have as
lSuIned no duties unless property called
upon to do so. He called yupe,; Colonel
Black for sufficient force on the 2+d, to pro-
tect the State House.. He did this, he says,
upon evidence OF q matnred plan 80 take
possession OF the halls OF the Legislature
and carry out the shotgun policy in the
organization OF the two houses.
Colonel Black, as lie was bouna'to do,
Chamberlain continues, ordered COM
pany OF soldiers to guard the StAte-rfOusc.
He Chamberlain detailed on the 21th q
State officer to take charge OF admissions.
This officers orders were enforced by mill
tary officers on duty. Chamberlair pro-
'ceeds at great length in justification cE his
own action, which he claims the military
properly supported.
Murat Halstead telegraphs to the Herald,
in which, among others, he gives the FOL
loving as The reasons which Colonel Lamar
presented in refusing to call upon Governor
Hayes: Colonel Lamar said neither he'aor
Hayes could have anything bearing directly
upon the pubic business to say to each
ether, and. while Il talk would be agreeable,
equal to the notoricty it would probably
lave.
T. \ Tribune special says, al!uding to she
rule which is asked from the Supreme Court
OF South Carolina directing Machey to de-
liver to Wallace the returns received by
Mickey rs Speaker !" It is conceded, how
ever, that the Court will not recognize
Mackey's' right to the returns, and will
order him to give them up to Mr.. Wallace.
Should he refuse, the Democratic rifle clubs
here will furnish posse sufficient to put
him in arrest"
