Society. on Madison avenue, General James II. Van
Alien, one of the committee invited by President
Grant TO visit Louisiana tor the purpose OF witnessing
the acts Of the Returning Board delivered address

The registration of the State for the year 1870

he argued that II only reasonable 10 expect re-

which covered 2, 900 large manuscript pages,
showed violence and intimidation In several parishes
to such degree that the Returning Board was COM
PEELED to throw them out, which left majority OF

The speaker dwelt at length on the "bul-dozing"
policy pursued in the parishes OF West Feliciana,
Morehouse, Ouachta, Baton Rouge, Claiborne, Rich
land Grant and Union, and argued that the action OF
the Returning Board was final, IN support OF which
he quoted IRON the decision Of the supreme Court OF
louisiana. In referring to the claim by democrats
that the diminished republican vote was due 10 a
ton caused by corruption in tho State government the
speaker said
II deny that there Is evidence to justify belief

A Murderer's Horrible Revelations.

Nhh ANhhf IOD lcs
A Scranton special says Kelly, whose
revelations of Molly Mcguire rascality al
most takes ones breath away, can neither
read nor write, but It seems as If he could
not utter q sentence without telling of
some unexpected crime concocted by the
Mollies and participated in by himself. He
told how the Molies OF Schuylkill played
a two-fold part in politics, working in the
interest of rival candidates, and instanced
the Fisk-Case contest for district attorney
of Schuylkill. On one occasion Fisk furn-
ished pass to take the gang from Gulch
Gap to Sunbury, and the leaders got Case
to give them their fare and then divided
the money. Kelly sent a thrill through
the court when he described the chaffering
of the murdsrers over Rease's dead body
for the overcoat be wore, and then their
final decision not TO take it because IL was
riddled with bullets. The Rease murder,
Kelly said, had been burden on his mind
for nine long years, and although he had
been in prison at different times for various
offenses, the thought of it forever pursued
him and often tortured him in his lonely
cell
