Columbia, S. c., April 4.-Peace pre-
walls in Columbia and business has re-
sumed its wonted turn, leaving no trace
Of the fevered state of the last few days.

committee of prominent Darlington citi-
zens and he is now satisfied that there
will be no further trouble. Concerning
this conference he made the following
statement: "TheY came over here for con-
ference with me at my invitation-that
is. asked Mr.. Coker to come, and the
other gentlemen expressed desire to
come too. We had full talk over the
situation in all its aspects. AS a result
have instructed Gen. Richbourg to pre-
pare everything to bring the troops back
over here on Friday. They will arrive
here at II o'clock, and the companies from
the up-country will go on through,
while all the others will
be distributed about the state
on the first outgoing trains. do not care
to keep the force there any longer than is
absolutely necessary. 1 have promised
the committee nothing and they have
promised me nothing. L have agreed,
however, that if those men in Darlington,
who have caused the trouble will stand
their trial, win let the civil law take its
course all the way through"

connection with the affair, was the as
