CHICAGO, november Ii.
A Tribune Washington special says
Fred. Douglass being interviewed on the
Presidents Southern policy, states that he
had looked for the results which have come,
and had SO expressed himself to the Presi-
dent when the policy WAS inaugurated.
The President had, at that time. assured
him that the colored people would be pro-
tected in all their rights. The interviewer
finally asked "What dc you think will
be the result OF the departure, if there is a
new departure Of the Administration in
dealing with the South?" s'Most saluta-
tary," was the reply Il think the South
itself will see it's errors and correct them.
1t will. / believe, find out that q solid
South is dangerous, even to itself, when
secured by. DISTINGUISHING freemen. It
will, after learning the reason, be willing
to grant equal rights to all"
The "Tribune's" New Orleans special
confirms the report from that city sent last
week, and says the results Of the elections
are not complimentary to Governor Mich
OILS, who has often assured the country that
colored voters would receive ample pro-
lection. There are quite as many political
refugees in Now Orleans, seemingly from
the country parishes, as there were in the
| campaign Of 1876. They report them
selves now, as then, driven from their
homes because Of their political affiliations.
Their afidavits rave been taken for prob
<1d6 usc in the near future. The parish
|sof- Concordia has q registered colored
vote Of 1900, against 275 for the whites.
Ahidavits show that the whites are organ
lied into militia companies, and that the
blacks are completely terrorized. A show
ing is made Of something like so blacks as
murdered within the three weeks imme-
diately preceding election. They are rep
resen ted rs found hanging, in some cases.
two in a tree; in others, as hanging to gate
posts, and in others, again, as found in
| fields, through the same agency, the turkey
buzzards feasting on their remains. The
parish, withal, is shown to have actually
gone Republican by better than 600 ma
jority, but has been counted for the DEM
ocrafs. The United States Commissioners,
too. seem to have been forced to leave.
The showing for Tensas parish is still
worse, the number killed being claimed at
100. No Republican organization being
possible, no attempt was made. as q con-
sequence, to put a Republican ticket in the
field. The afidayits Of actual facts are
certainly specific, and, in view OF the late
u~tterances Of the President, are likely to
yet play their part.
Denial of John Kelly.
New YoRK, November IA.
John Kelly fatty denies the story that he
intends to withdraw as the head Of the
Tammany organization. He says he never
resigns under the shadow OF defeat, but
will, when the Democracy achieves u future
great victory. The anti-Tammanies and
Republicans, who were recently elected
| Aldermen on a combination ticket, are ex-
pected TO continue t. act together in the
Board, and sustain Mayor Cooper's nomi-
nations and policy. A great pressure is
brought TO bear on Cooper, however, by the
best, among his supporters. to retain
Kelly in the Controllership, where his adj
ministration has been wisely economical
and unusually trustworthy.
Anticipated Corner ON Gold Notes.
NEW YoRK, November IA.
There is some apprehension that parties
who distrust the stability OF resumption
will make especial efforts 70 get gold notes
in their possession before the first Of Janu-
airy, with . view to locking them up and SO
promoting speculation in gold. It Is sug-
