KSLLOaO, LONGSRTEET, AND It A DOER TO DE
INDICTED FOR MURDER.
New York, October 20.—The Herald's
New Orleans special says : Tuesday even
ing the Conservative leaders hold u meet
ing, and docided to commence criminal
prosecutions against Kellogg, Longstreot,
Badger, and all Radical leaders for mur
der. Tho charge will bo conspiracy, on

rights guaranteed under tho constitution,
in removing and protecting arms. Tho
affidavits are bciflg prepared to-day, and

warrants. If Marshal Packard rofusos-.to
exeonto them, the Commissioners will di
rect Gen. Emery to do so, nud under the

ordor of tho Unitoff States Court, as rep
resented iu tho person of n commissioner.
While affidavits wiil be filed, the war
rants will not bo issued before tho elec
tion, unless further arrests of whites uro
made. As tho offense charged is murder,
all who are arrested must^lio in tho parish
jail.
MAJ. MERRILL DENOUNCED—RADICAL U. S.

CURIOSITY AS TO WHAT THE REGISTRAR'S
ACTION WILL BE—LITTLE CHANCE OF A
FOI|EIUN.
—Von Arnim is not to be permitted
live in Prussia.
—William M. llhinhart, the sculptor,
died at Rome
—Tho Fronch legitimist, Deputy Du
Temple, has joined Don Carlos.
—Titlis, capital of Georgia, in Asiatic
Russia, lias been sadly ..devastated by fire.
—A Havana letter says the homo gov-
eminent deprecates the five per oent,
capital tax. Taxes on income and exports
ore to bo increased.
—The Daily News states that the pro
ject of marriage between the Princess
Thyra, of Denmark,and tho crown Prince
of Hanover has been abandoned.
—Iu a speech made to the bishop
Verdun, tho Pope expressed his sympathy
with Franco, and declared it necessary for
nil Catholic powers to unite in defence
tho church and society.
k —An appeal made by Count Von Arnim
to the Supreme Tribunal at Berlin against
a decision in a lower court refusing to set
him nt liberty has been docided adversely
to the Count.
—Among the measures to be submitted
to the Gorman Parliament is a proposition
to induce a genoral imperial income tax,
to bo combined with the customs and ex
ciso duties, instead of the present system
of contribution by different States.
—The Daily Telegraph says : “Prince
Louis Napoleon, who’will complete his
studies at Woolwich Academy in February
next, stauds at present eleventh, and not
twelfth, iu the first class; and we learn
that, despite all the statements to the
contrary, hixhas not yet decided upon the
course ho will take upon leaving the in
stitution."
—The fuueral of Ver Georgo Strobel
took place yesterday in St. Mary’s (Cath
olic) Church, Philadelphia, where he had
been pastor for twenty-five yoars. After
impressive ceremonies in the clinrch,
which was draped in black, the remains
were deposited in a vault in the burial
ground at the rear of the church.
FAIR ELECTION.
New York, October 23.—The Tribunes
special says: “The action of Gon. Mer
rill, commanding at Shreveport, in going
into court himself and making affidavits
against the signers of tho labor pledge,
has created a vast amount of disgust and
iudignation. Only a fortnight or so ago
Gen. Emery declined in a published note
to Packard that the military should, un
der no circumstances, bo allowed to med
dle in political affairs ; yet Gen. Merrill,
within five days after his arrival in
Shreveport, steps aside from his official
position to make affidavits in a potty
Commissioner's Court, against citizens
who have brought themselves, at least so
it is declared, under penalties of purely a
political law. Tho offouso, whatever it
was, had been committed before his ar
rival. It iu no wiso uffeeted tho interests
he had iu charge. But tho worst feature
of the case is thut tho first one of the
Shreveport citizens selected for arrest and
arraignment was J. J. lloran, tho Con
servative candidate for tho Legislature,
whilo the Commissioner before whom he
is to be tried, A. B. Levisoe, is his oppo
nent on the ltadicnl side for tho same
office. They could not induce tho Deputy
Marshals at Shreveport to servo tho war
rants and so sent to the adjoining parish
and got the Deputy Sheriff of tho parish,
named Neill, to servo them. There
is grout excitome^t at Shreveport in con
sequence. Tho army officers hero Would
not boliove, yesterday, that Merrill bad
taken this action. Every one seemed to
consider it unbecoming and improper.
The Federal authorities are pushing
arrests now in Caddo, DoSoto, Nntcliito-
chos, Rod River, Graut, and, in fact, iu
nearly all tho northwestern parishes, nud
in St. Martin's also. If the object is not
to affect tho election by intimidating or
driving out the Conservative voters, it
looks much like it.
difficult to say what will ccmo of
Field’s action in tho case of the natural
ized citizens. Ho declares their papers
illegal, and if tho Registrar should there
upon strike off their names, tho result
will be 'tho disfranchisement of nearly
half of tho Conservative majority in this
city, and that would givo tho State to the
Radicals. Tho opinion is^ divided ns to
the Registrar’s probable course. Mine is
that tho scheme will be carried out by tho
Radicals if they And themselves courage
ous enough.
It now seems clear that there is little if
any chauoe for a fair election in Louis-
idRa. The Conservatives are keeping
quiet—enduring everything in silence and
patience—determined to have no collision
and to vote, if they nro not put in jail
meanwhile. But with these cavalry raids
and indiscriminate arrests in a dozen par
ishes, the disfranchisement of Conserva
tives, and the fraudulent registration pa
pers issued to negroes (two thousand are
known to have been issued), I cannot see
by what stretch of charity tho forthcom
ing election can bo tormed fair.
AJOB MERRILL RAIDING THROUGH THE
EMORY DEMANDS A UE-
cratic State Committee of Louisiana have
presouted a remonstrance to Gen. Emory
against tho action of Col. Merrill in ar
resting tho citizens of Shreveport, who or
ganized to control tho negro voto by dis
charging from their employment all who
do not abandon the Republican party.
The committoee opine that as Col. Merrill
is Gen. Emory's subordinate tho latter
should interfere to stop tho arrests, aud
cnll hands off to tho niilitnry policeman.
A U. B. OFFICER ACTING AS OATn MAKER.
New Orleans, October 20.—Tho follow
ing is tlio text of tho affidavit upon which
tho citizens of Shreveport were arrested:
United States of America, )
District of Louisiana. )
Personally came and appoarod before
uio, the undersignod authority, Lewis
Merrill, Major of tho Seventh Regiment
of United S'atos Cavalry, who, being by
mo flrst duly sworn, did depose and say
that on or about the ltith day of October,
1874, at tho city of Shreveport, in tho
district aforesaid (bore follow the names
of tho ninoty citizens), did, each aud every
ono of thorn, conspire to intimidate and
control numorous qualified voters iu said
district, in exorcising tho right of suffrage,
by threatening to deprive said voters of
employment by threatening to refnso to
renow tlio contracts with said votors for
labor, iu violation of n statute of tbo
United States. Wherefore ho prays that
paid parties bo arrested uud doult with ac
cording to law. Lewis Merrill.

SETTLING OF THE NATURALIZATION QUES
TION.
New Orleans, Oct. 23.—A proposition
to adjust tho difficulty caused by th<5 dis
franchisement of voters naturalized by
tho Second District Court was made to
day. It provides an additional ballot-box,
into which tho votes of poisons so dis
franchised cun bo deposited, and a sub
mission of tho matter to tho courts after
the election. Tho naturalized citizens
will hold n mass meeting. The Democrats
refused such a compromise.

New Orleans, Oct. 23.—A meeting of

Court had tho power of naturalization.
Over one hundred members of the bar

New' Orleans, Oct. 23.—Tho surviving

New York, October 29.—Tho Herald's
Now Orleans npecial telegraphs as follows:
Notwithstanding that Gon. Emory tele
graphed to Major Merrill to report wheth
er he had made any arrests at Shreveport,
Merrill has failed to answer, ignoring the
Commander of the Department. As the
regulations require that ho should report
through General Emory, instead of direct
to the War Department, it is understood
that Emory has telegraphed th® Depart
ment on tho subject. Merrill lays him
self open to court martial by refusing to
answer Emory; but his object evidently
is to raid through tho State and terrify
the people before Emory can restrain him,
trusting to administration influences to
sbiold him from punishment.
Information from tho lied river country
shows that the white males are Hoeing to
the woods to avoid arrest ot tho hands of
Merrill’s cavalry, as others did in Missouri
during tho war, when there was much
raiding about the Stato.
General Emory says but little, but it is
evident he is in no way responsible for
this federal jayliawkor's operations, and
keenly feels the Blight pat upon him.
