New ORLEANS, January I6.-There
is no change in the political situation.
The Democrats have recovered from
the depression caused by the Presi-
dents telegram to Gen. Augur and are
again hopeful. 1t is Understood that
the Presiden Is order to Gen. Augur
was simply intended TO keep matters
in Sew Orleans in stdta quo. 1t began
to be apprebeDded that if affairs were
allowed to drift, there would be nothing
of the Packard government left to sup
port should the ultimate decision be in
lis favor. II is stated that the Packard
authorities have been advised to act
with great caution. They are hopeful,
however, maintaining that the tele.
gram foresbaiows the early and COM
plete recognition of their government.
