CHICAGO, January 5th-The Ta'ibune's
Washington special says: Ex-Governor
Hunt, of Colorado, last night received a dis
patch confrmatory of the story, already
darkly limited at, that the females captured
by the Utes were outraged by their Indian
captors. Governor Hunt said the reception
of the dispatch made him sick at heart He
did not make it public last night because he
did not want to antagonize the policy of Mr.
Schurz. He said ''The publication of
story of that kind here would at once arouse
sentiment as hostile to the savages as that
which exists in the State of Colorado. do
not believe it will be safe even to bring these
wretches to Washington. If relative of
mine had suffered this unnamable indignity
at the hands of one of these Indians 1 would
shoot him down in the streets of this city"

CONTEST GIVEN UP.
CHICAGO, January 9Th. - The Journals
Washington special says: The Post to-day
gives up the contest in Maine in behalf of
the Democratic party, and advises complete
submission. In speaking of the answers
given by the Supreme Court to the questions
propounded by Governor Garcelon, the Post
says: The Governor would not have asked
for this advice with a purpose to reject it.
He can accept it not only without any re-
proach to his course hitherto, but in consist.
ent pursuance of that course, and that he will
obey the law in its changed Interpretation.
1t is doubtful, however, whether it will be
competent for the Governor and Council to
resume the canvas and count in the persons
who were counted out, but public opinion
will demand that the Legislature shall per-
form the work of revision and make the com
position of each house conform to the require
ments of the principles or theories enunciated
by the Judges at Bangor.
PIDLsBURY WON'T HAVE IT.
AUGUSTA, January 5th.-Pillsbury is out
in the Standard denouncing the opinion of
the Court as partisan, and urging the counted
in members to stand up for their rights and
not to be bulldozed.
THE OUTLOOK AT AUGUSTA.
AUGUSTA, January 5th.-The Governor and
Council held no sessions for business to-day,
but have been in consultation in regard to the
course to be pursued The guard is still
maintained at the State House, with some
200 men in a room. Opposite the agricult-
ural rooms there are sixty stand of arms
stacked ready for immediate use. The eye of
the guard is kept upon all entering, passing
through or leaving the building. Although
every train is bearing crowds into the city,
there has been perfect order. The Mayor has
300 extra policemen on duty. Neither side
has absolutely determined on q course which.
is not subject to radical amendment This
much may be said, however, that the Fu-
sionists deem it all-important that they
should have quorum, and are resorting to
all possible means to bring about the result.
This afternoon e deputy was dispatched
across the country to Pennington to endeavor
to persuade MIR. Voter, who hasspublicly re.
fused to accept a certificate, to attend the
session tomorrow. Mr.. Sprout, of Portland,
in his own behalf and that of his colleague,
will ask of the Governor and Council certif-
Gates as members of the Legislature under
the decision of the Judges. Captain Goss,
of Bath, and the Republican members-elect
from i've disfranchised cities, viii ask for the
same right They claim that whatever may
be done with the towns one of the cities Is
clear and unInistakable. Every Republican
deprived of his seat is either here or will be
here, and at the present moment but i've Flu
sionists can be counted on who will stay
away.
