Texas Election Outrages.

Special to the Gazette.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 4.-The special
committee of the senate to investigate
alleged election outrages and misde-
nleanors in Washington county, Texas,
submitted its report to-day. The report
was accompanied by bulky volume
containing the testimony, and copiouS
extracts from the testimony were also
embodied in the report. After reviewing
the alleged outrages the committee says:
The committee has extended its inves-
LEGATIONS into the political transactions in
Washington county over the widest range
asked for either by the petitioners or by the
other parties This extensive survey and
patient investigation the committee has
thought justified by its conviction
that the actual cause of the crimes
committed illustrate the disorders which
affect portions of our country where the
population is generally divided between
white and colored.
The report concludes: The committee
recommends the careful revision of eX-
listing laws regulating the election of
members to congress and an examination
OF the proposed legislation pertinent TO
the same subject which has been pro-
posed in congress with a view of provid-
ing for a more equitable protection Of the
exercise of the elective franchise by more
stringent provisions for the punishment
OF offenses against it.
They propose q resolution providing for
a revision of the existing laws regulating
the election of members of congress.
THE DAGGETT CASE
Will not be decided by the supreme court
before March ), if then. The court ad-
joufned to-day until March 4 and has
the case under adyisement, but no de-
cision viii be made until the term.
I'd Vincent Virgins, of Texas has been
promoted from $l000to $1,000 in the gen

terday before Judge Cheney. The Dis.
trict Attorneys Office and the Court took
the same view of the matter. The case
has been tried twice. In the first trial
the jury, after being out long time
