Ugly Complexion Of the Case Against Scna-

FROM OUR SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT.

SENATOR sPENCER's CAsE-FAcTs NOT IN his
FAVOR.
The fact that the report OF the Senator Spencer nves
tigatlng Committee made to the Alabama Legislature
yesterday signed by the full committee,
republicans as well as democrats excites atten-
ton here Il Is held to strengthen the
against Spencer, and II is known here
hat most men in tho republican party Alabama
desires his overthrow, because they charge 1t is
owing TO his misuse Of patronage and power mainly
that the republicans have lost the State The Alabama
republicans desire reorganize their party a sound
basis but they find It impossible to get tho people Of
the State TO support that party while Senator Spencer
holds the federal patronage and II for
his favorites and purposes Senator Spencer
has been for time hero threatening
TO make trouble unless his friends should be
appointed to office, but his influence in the depart
ments is disputed, and prominent republicans have
given information here which has caused Mr. Spencer
TO be less omnipotent than he used To be II is said
hero that when the Legislature has prepared Its memo
rial the United States Senate It is possible that the
Grand Jury at Montgomery may be asked notice
Of the facts presented in the report and that Senator
Spencer may be Indicted and tried.
There is report in town that the Legislature Of
Louisiana, which meets Monday, will endeavor to
