Possible Political Complications IN ths

WAsHNeTos, August Ex-senator Pueh,
Of Alabama, has been reported as having
said that in order to settle the impending
deadlock when the Senate is convened in
extra session, he would be willing to vote
for some conservative Republican Senator,
like Mr.. Anthony, OF Rhode Island, Tor
Vice President and President pro ttmpore
Of the Senate, In conversation with cor
respondent to-day, Mr.. PVgh said that he
had never made such aStatement.
"ln the presence OF such calamity rs
has befallen the nation! said the Senator,
II do not think that the public mind
should be disturbed by n protFacted contro.
vesy about the organization Of the Senate.
The political power OF the Senate is evenly
divided, and | have no doubt that the sub
ordinate positions in the organization OF
the body will also be evenly divided. It
requires no great effort OF the Imagination
to see, however, that before an organization
is effected or any newly elected Senators
are sworn in, that Vice President must
be elected The Senate will be without
u head as soon as General Arthur Is
sworn in as President, and It cannot trans
act my business until after that vacancy Is
filled. Hence it follows, as q matter Of
course, that the President Of the Senate pro
teHpOre to DO chosen must he Democrat,
do not for moment believe that Senator
elect Miller, OF New York, will be allowed
to take his seat until after the circumstances
OF his election are investigated by the Sen.
ate. The charges Of bribery made before
Depew Withdrew from the canvass in New
York State do not appear to effect Mr.. Mil
ler's claim TO seat In the Senate. The
question to be considered will be as to the
manner OF his election; or, in other words,
rs to whether majority OF quo:
rum OF the Legislature, or majority
Of the entire Legislature, has the right
to elect. Mr.. Miller was not elected by
majority OF the Legislature, In the Kel.
logg case the Republicans claimed that
majority Of n quorum Of the Legislature
could elect, and the Democrats Controyerted
that assumption. The case IL lust as i'm.
portant In the case OF New York as Of
Louisiana, and II really hinges upon what
the Legislature Of State, under the State
Constitution, really IL. think II probable
that utter the Senate meets cauctlses will
be held by the parties, at which q Joint
committee Of conference will be appointed
to consider the question Of dividing up the
and the Senate offices, Ihaye
no doubt a satisfactory agreement can be
reached"

teryiew with General Romeyn \. Ayers,
coInmanlhnt Of the United States forces In
this District; 's. - ~ .''F
General, there is considerable talk that,
in case the President dies, tho people will
take tile law into their own hands, and
that Guteau will be executed by mob.
Have you heard anything Of such move
ment and have you done anything to meet
itY"
"Yes SIR" replied General Ayres "The
Government has been fully advised Of this
movement, and Is fully prepared to meet
II, My instructions and orders arc com.
plete aal 1 am prepared to act at q mo-
ments notice"
"Haye you strengthened your force at
the Jail today"
ayes, sir The force has been strength
ened to-day, and at one moments notice,
and within half an hour after receiving the
announcement of the death Of the Prcsi.
dent ! can have 1000 armed men and
trained soldiers at the jail, prepared to
protect II at all hazards"
General, It Is said this action on the
part of the Government will he made only
on semhlance Of giving protection to the
assassin, and that you will soon give way
and allow the people to take their man,
and that II you are compelled to fire, II
1t will be with blank cartridge"
"Those who havcsuch ideas will be sadly
mistaken, and while | should deeply re-
gret the death Of u single man In such
cause, yet my orders are imperative, and
as soldier they.will be Obeyed. Guiteau
Is prisoner OF the United States Govern.
ment. He Is confined within United
States Jail. The Constitution and laws
guarantee him fair trial This is the
Capitol of the Nation, the head center OF

ternined that no mob Inv shnll reign here,
and have been directed to protect the
prisoner and United States property, and
you may rest assured that 1t viii be- done,
My force Is ample and in condition to meet
the largest mob that could be found.
sincerely trust no such demonstration will
be made by the people, because, In their
attempt to curry out their purpose innocent
lives tnay be lost"
"GeneaL how many men have you at
this bATraCksT S
Companies A, B, G, D and H OF my
regiment, with Companies and K at short
call. The entire available force at Fortress
Monroe will be here tonight or In the
morning. The marine corps and militia Of
the district are under my orders, so that
you see the forte to quell any unawiuly
disposed persons Is fully equal to the utmost
demand that may be made on them"
General, have you sent any guns to the
jail to-day2'
"No, sir, but have four Gattling guns
ready to move at moments notice. These
guns shoot very fast, and each one Of them
Is equal to regiment Of men. most
earnestly hope that may not be called on
to use them, but l shall do so II occasion
requires IT,"
General, how long wonld 1t be after the
President dies before you could get no
tice" ..|T .''-,.lI Il

White House, 30 that II would be at once.
My forces here are under marching ortlers,

Saturday, the Presidents Rorst day was
attended this morning with the same
bright summer sky, the merry song Of ear
ly birds in front Of the White House, and
the slow awakening Of the hushed city,

The Cabinet assembled early in the day,

too heavily, lest the stupor should prove too
exhaustive to overcome, An effort was even
made 10 keep the President awake, even at

disturbing his repose. II was, therefore, q
