versaiion on South Carolina and
Louisiana Questions.
WASHINGTON, March IA.
Elk Senator Robertson, of South
Carolina, accompanied bv ex Con-
gresham Wallace, called on the
President to-day. protesting against
Senator Patterson's proposition for a
new election, on the ground that the
substantial or industrial interests Of
South Carolina would he materially
damaged by such an election. 1t was
further stated to the President that
none OF the Republican members of
that State had been consulted on the
subject, and that it was in the nature
of the independent proposition on the
part of Senator Patterson, stimulated
perhaps by Governor Chamberlain.
Robertson stated that the solution of
the South Carolina complications
would be accomplished by the with
drawal Of troops from the State Capt.
tot. when the people themselves would
adjust the difficulty.
Democrats and conservatives of
Louisiana and South Carolina are OPP
posed to a new gubernatorial election.
The President will not encourage such
an election unless both parties favor
the propositions; he will, however, re-
ceive from representative men of both
parties any suggestions in writing they
have to make.

Later returns do not change the rela-
tive vote for Governor. The majority
will probably be $500 for Prescott in
the First Congressional District. Twen-
ty-fve towns have not been heard
from. Those returned give Marston
l0,S79; Jones, l0,460. Republicans be-
lieve that Marston is elected by a
small plurality. Democrats are con.
fident and claim tie district. A dis
patch from Portsmouth claims that
district for Jones by a good majority.
Bogy is elected in the Second District,
by from 300 To 100. and Blair, in Third
District, by from 700 to 900. A large
portion OF the towns in both districts
have not yet returned the congressional
votes, but they run in Third District
very closely with the gubernatorial
vote. 1t IS probable that the amend
inents to the Constitution are carried.
