COUNSEL FOR THE RET uRN1NG BOARD
DRNIEs A STATEMENT by WELLS
NEW ORLEANS, February 7.--Joha
Ray states, in reference to the repor-
ted statement fW Ills that he, Ray,
advised as to what polls should be
thrown out by the Returning Board
that he gave do such advice. Mr.. Ray
says that it 10 fact generally known
that he acted as attorney for the board
Ho says, also, that frequently he was
asked as to the legal effect of certain
Ievidence affecting the returns of va- %
ious precincts. and that in his capacity
| of legal ad wiser to the board he gave
/ his opinion. He denies, however,
that he advised the throwing out o.;
the returns of any poll.
Honore, ReturninG-Board Secre-
tary of State, has not been spbpGnaed
yet to sppear at Washington with the
original returns of the state, as init.
mated in the Washington dispatches.
He has gone to the parish OF pointe
Coupec, and it is not definitely know
when he will return. 1t may be that
he concluded to visit home in that
parish Just at this time for the purpose
of avoiding a summons to Washington
though another reason for his absence
is given.

THE WASHINGTON PUBLIC TIRED OF rirE
SCANDAL.
The Washington despatch to the New
York Tribune Is as follows:
"Even those who hang about the Cant
tol in the hope of being entertained by
some exciting scene in one of the houses
OF Congress or by some sensational dis
Closures in an Investigating committee
are getting tired of the Louisiana scandal
They turn away from it with disgust
DAVID Dudley Fields further sauabble
with Ex-Governor Wells of the Returning
Board to-day was not profitable en-
counter. Sharp temper was exhibited
on both sides hardly befitting the dignity
OF member Of Congress or calculated to
give better impression of the character
OF Wells. One or two expressions which
fell from the lips of the latter in his ex-
citement might even be interpreted as
threats of personal rielance against his
prosecutor whenever he recovered his
liberty. But even this has become an
old story. The Louisiana Returning
Board has had its day in Washington
and 1t seems hardly possible that any dis
closure can revive interest in it. The
people have settled down to the convic-
ton that the Returning Board comprises
a bad lot, and nothing which may be
proved against it will cause surprise"

death, as 1t feared, the settling up CT
a very large estate nay prevent DR..
