ORLEANS. TUESDAY FEBRUARY 6, 1877

majority for Hayes, even before any
votes were thrown out; but he finally
got SO mixed up that he inadvertently
admitted thai the returns as received
showed six or seven thousand majority
for Tilden.
| He refused to testify In reference to
any acts of the Returning Board, except
as to Vernon parish, on the ground that
he was still prisoner undergoing pun
ishment for contempt. and ought not to
be required to testify under duress.
Mr.. Knott pointed out the transpa-
rency Of that excuse by reminding him
that he volunteered to testify, and swore
to tell the whole truth. 1t was too late
to get out OF the difficulty by so shallow
q pretense.
Before Field got through with Wells,
| he exhibited the temper OF d. demon.
In more than one instance he rose from
his seat and, shaking his finger men
acingly in Fields face, gave the strong.
est outward indications that he was
even ready to do his sharp questioner
bodily harm.
Field added some little to the dra-
matte situation by having his temper
somewhat ruffled, but before Wells left
the witness stand he was In terribly
detected state.
It was intimated in committee room,
from the peculiar manner OF Wells, that
he might be armed When taken to his
quarters by the officer of the House he
was searched and there was found upon
his person two loaded revolvers and a
dangerous thug knife. The cane he
carried with him was also loaded To-
night he sent to Sergeant-at-Arms
Thompson to send him a bottle Of
brandy, but 1t was not given to him.
The most charitable construction to be
put on his very strange conduct to-day
is to say that he was drunk. His man
ner certainly leaves very little room to
doubt that he was under the influence
of strong drink. He will go before the
committee tomorrow, but minus his
bulldozing paraphernalia. BUELL..

WAsHIEaToN. Feb. 5.4-Wells took the
land at O'Clock.
| Mr.. Lawrence presented Wells letter
so Maddox and asked him II he recog.
aixed IL. Wells said that before he
answered he would like to have read a
letter written by him to the President
int Mnddox's suggection, and then de-
scribed tho letter. Lawrence then
presented tho West letter. Wells
Gays That lettersI wrote myself.
n Alt this point Maddox came into the
ioona and denied that he had ever seen
Tho letter that Wells pretends to have
written to the President at his Mad
hcx) suggestion. Wells then proceeded
with his prepared speech, the opening
nf which indicates that he intends to
bull the thing through.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 5.-Wells has now
\ testified far enough to warrant state
naents that he has fully determined to
fight ID out. He will not admit any
thing on his direct examination by
Lawrence, but Field, on cross-examina-
.tion, will be able to break him down
! utterly, SO far as his denials of Little
fields testimony are concerned.
It Ii also probable that Field will
make him seriously impeach himself
out OF his own mouth In regard to his
sdenials touching Maddox and Pickett.
However this may be, should say from
what have already heard of his testi-
mony, that Wells is an artist at the
business of perjury, and that he Is now
engaged upon his masterpiece.
WASHINGTON, Feb. o. After some ex-
PLANTATION Wells admitted that he wrote
all the letters. He then proceeded
with his speech. He said he had no
conversation with Maddox on the sub
lect of money to be paid to secure the
electoral vote Of Louisiana, and denied
lin toto all that Maddox had
testified to concerning the million
dollars business, saying that he would
bring responsible person before the
committee to substantiate his denial.
He then went into an explanation of the
ambiguous expressions and insinuations
contained Ia the West letter, all OF
which were TO the purport that 1t was
the honest letter OF spotless patriot
TO q brother patriot, and to secure a
patriotic object. BUELL..

WASHINGTON, Feb. 5.-The Electoral
Com mission to-day was engaged in
hearing the arguments of VIM. NJ.
Evarts for the Republicans. and Chas.
O'Conor for the Democrats, in the
Florida case, the question being the ad-
instability Of evidence. and the right of
the commission to go behind the certif-
Gates of Gov. Stearns.
Mr.. O'Coner made mastery speech,
contending that the Commission had
the same powers and privileges as were
vested in Congress, that their business
was to count the votes and not the cer-
tificates.
At the close of O'Conor's speech the
Commission took a recess for an hour,
when they again met to deliberate upon
and decide the question submitted by
counsel. A. J.. G..

WELLS CHARGE
Wells Initiates Leyisee and SWears

Mr.. Duncan Kenner Declares that Wells
Offered Him the Vote Of Louisiana
for $4,000.

The following telegraphie correspond
ence passed yesterday between Major
Burke and Mr.. Duncan Kenner, In re-
gard to an absurd charge of Mad.
We lis that Mr.. Kenner had offered to
buy him (Wells). 1t is Wells evident
intention to lead the committee away
from the investigation Of his acts by
false charges like these against others.
Wells, however, can claim little
originality In this, as it was Levisee who
first invented this charge, and it has
already been sworn to by dozen other
Radicals:

THE LEyEE COMPANY.
New ORLEANS. Feb

NEW ORLEANS, Feb. 5, 1877,
Editor Denl0crat-Your remarks in re-
gard to the present Louisiana Levee
Company, in your issue OF to-day, re-
quires further explanation to set the
matter right before the public. Tho
original charter granted by the War
moth Legislature to levee company,
was engineered through and under the
control OF irresponsible parties, who
undoubtedly expected to sell out at d
large profit: and SO Tar as the company
was concerned, / admit they utterly
failed in carrying out any practical and
useful purposes for which It was organ
lied, and for months did nothing to-
wards building our leyees.
In 1872 b new company was organized,
controlled by capitalists, who imme-
diately entered upon their duties In good
faith, complying with the terms OF their
charter in every respect, eXpending
nearly half million Of dollars in ex-
cess Of moneys received for building
and repairing our levees. The best evi-,
dence that the company has made no
money, is that the stock is not worth
On the market to-day twenty per cent or
the original cost. STOCKHOLDERS.
