THE LOUISIANA JUDGESHIP.
DISTRICT ATTORNEY FISHER, OF WASHINGTON, d
THE PRESIDENTS NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. OUT
OF THE RACE.

| DISTRICT ATTORNEY FISHER, OF WASHINGTON, d
THE PRESIDENTS ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS OUT
OF THE RACE.
The vacancy in the United States District
Court in Louisiana, caused by the resignation
of Judge Durell, who voluntarily stepped
down and out in order to avoid impeachment,
has not vet been filed. 1t was said on good
authority that President Grant had asserted
his determination to nominate on specified
day E. c. Billings as successor to Durell, but
as yet he has failed to send in any name.
This, however. is not owing to the evil repu-
tation which Billings acquired through his
connec tion with the Bankruptcy Ring of New
Orleans, regarding which many OF our New
York merchants have unpleasant recollections,
but in consequence of the difficulty Of con-
cliating the rival candidates for the place,
and their supporters.
The three most prominent aspirants for the
vacant seat are Mr.. Williamson, who is Pinch
backs choice, Billings, who is Senator Vests
man, end last but not least Judge Fisher,
who Was District Attorney of the District Of
Columbia until public opinion compelled At
torney General Pierrepont to get rid of him.
Of the three Fisher just now has the best
prospect for getting the nomination, as he has
the powerful support of Boss Shepherd, of the
D strict Ring, and Measurer Babcock, of tho
nlsKy hlng, the TWO most influential ad.
visers OF the President. Besides, it is be-
lieved that he was promised the place long
ago by the President as a reward for going
quietly out of the Office CT District Attorney
when his presence there was found to be too
heavy a load for the Administration to carry.
An apparently weli.informed correspondent
of the Wilmington Herald says that Grant
sent letter to West through Babcock, and .
message to Pinchback through Shepherd,
asking them whether they would be willing to
accept Fisher as compromise candidate, but
without favorable results. This writer says
that Williamson may nov be considered out
OF the race, and that either Billings or Fisher
will receive the nomination. 1t is hardly
necessary to say that the nomination of either
OF these men would be an outrage on decency
which even Republican Senate would hard
" tolerate. Y. Sun, Jun T.
