Especial dispatch to the Baltimore SUM-
PLANNING THE ELECTORAL COUNT.


WASHINGTON, January 7.-Despite the
immense amount Of speculation and Of opin-
ion which has been brought to bear upon
the question OF satisfactory count and de-
termination Of the electoral vote, it cannot
be said that the beginning of the present
week finds that there has practically been
much Of an advance toward the settlement
of the question. By far the larger ma
jority Of the plans which have been sug-
gested died almost as soon as they were
born, which was meet and proper, as
many Of them had no backing be-
yond the brain which originated them,
and which hot infreqnently was shall
low brain at that. The idea OF new pop
ular election, which has been enormously
attributed to the President, has taken little
IL any hold upon the minds Of congressman,
although there are one or two isolated IL
stances where members have contemplated
itapproyingly. The suggestion OF new
the meeting of Congress, and therefore very
far from being original with General Grant.
Had It been original with him that would
have been sufficient il there was no other
reason to condemn it in the minds Of nearly
every Republican member Of the Senate and
the House, as they no longer look upon the
President as counsellor whose advice Is
worthy to be followed.
BuS chile, as said, there hes been no crys-
talizing about any particular plan, still it is
apparent that there Is a better temper among
both politicians and people, and a recogni.
ton that the great truth that reason, not
prejudice, should decide the question. The
mass-meetings which have beeen called in q
number OF the States will take place to-morg
row, and the action OF these meetings is
awaited here with considerable interest. It
is hoped that no partisanshipio or infa1nma-
tory addresses viii mark the occasion; but
that the situation shall be considered with |
proper appreciation OF its gravity and the !
disposition eYfnced TO consider it In the
proper spirit. All this IL perfectly consist
ent, with the Grmest attitude that the will Of
the people shall be respected. 1t may be
shortly expected that the debate on the
subject OF the electoral vote will be re- /
sumed In the Senate, which viii 90 very |
far to indicate the position likely
to be assumed by that body. 1t Ia highly
probable that 1t may be determined to 20 on
with this question without waiting for the
reports Of the southern committees, which
can scarcely be expected TO afford much
preliminary assistance in the matter, on nc
count OF their Yolun1iRous and c0ntradic tory
nature IL fsYery safe TO say that few menu
bers Of either house will undertake the

The reason given by the President for
asking the members OF the Police Board Of
Commissioners of this District for their re-
signations was that, on reading the testi-
mony taken in the recent investigation
concerning gambling-houses, he was sur
prised to learn that their suppression had
been neglected. He had been in Washing
ton long time, but had not until recently
learned OF the actual existence of so many
places Of that character, which were carried
on contrary to law, aud should therefore be
closed. He knew nothing OF the alleged
police conspiracy against Representative
Whitborne, except what two detectives re-
lated to him.
TILE ORDNANCE REMOVALS..
The President, in reply to aqucstion con-
corning the recent removal OF ordnance and
ordnance stores, said the force at Jefferson
heing small they were sent to Rock Island,
where they could be properly guarded, but
he had no knowledge Of a recent move
