REPUBLICAN CAUCUS.
ARK AN BAR AND LOUISIANA THE VEXED QUES
TIONS—SOME BKNATOR8 WANT TO
INVESTIGATE ALL THE
SOUTHERN 8TATS8.
The Republican Senators spent about
an hour and a half in cauous this after-
noon on the subjeot of Arkansas affairs,
but adjourned without coming to any
conclusion. Only a few Senators ex
pressed themselves ia favor of interveo
lion, and even these were not agreed as
to the exact form of a movement. Others
were disposed to postpone action os the
present condition of the State did not
teem to justify Congressional measures,
all acoounta representing the people
generally to be satisfied with their present
government, with no cause for violent
disturbance.
The question of the oondition of Louis
iana also becoming involved, several Sen
ators said it would be found on examina
tion that one or two of the other Southern
States had no more legal existence than
Louisiana, and therefore there should be
an investigation concerning all of them,
in order to establish their validity.
Tha expression of views separated the
Senators widely from the original topic of
conversation.
Tbe next eaucus will be held on the
coll of the chairman.
Alakana Claims Court.
Washington, Deoember 9.—In the

sonal injury by acts resulting from the
capture of Confederate ernisers.
Gen. Roberts spoke in opposition.
A decision will be rendered in a few
days.
Case 118, involving the qnestion of
citizenship, naturalization, Ac., will, with
oasa involving tbe same points, be
argued to-morrow. It is probable
that the hearing of the oases will com
meuce regularly next week, after argu
