Latest By Mail. Repabileaa Conference n the Presi dential Policy. - Special Dispatch to the Baltimore Sun. Washihgton, Oct. 21. A private conference of Honse Re publicans was held at the .residence of a cabinet officer a night or two since, to discuss their course in case Jjio President's policy came up for discussion in the House. It was said that the Democrats proposed to com pel the Republicans to place them selves on the record by submitting resolutions endorsing the President's Southern policy. It was developed that the sentiment of those present was very strongly against voting for any resolution of that character which should, come from the Demo cratic side, as they prefer to" select their own method of expressing their opinions. The gentlemen present all expressed their desire to preserve the nutty of the Republican party und uphold the President, but to do this iu their own way, and not at the bid ding of their political opponents. . It was ascertained that but one of those present heartily and unreserved ly favored the President's course in' the abstract, Representative Cox, of Ohio. Mr. Cor said 'the President had only carried out the principles laid down in the Cincinnati platform ad in his letter of acceptauoe.

Special Dispatch to the Baltimore Sun. THE CONTESTED SKNATORSHIFB. J iK Since Friday there has beon roach consultation among: both the : Re publican and Democratic: 8en4tbrs over the Louisiana aud ; South .Caro lina contested Senatorshipv , When Congress met ' on Monday -last the JJemocralic oenatots were quite con fident that enougb Republicans would vote with them to seat Messrs. Kustis, Spofford and Butler. In the light of the events of the past week this con fidence has measurably abated. - The Democratic Senators now admit that tbey look upon the result as qnite doubtful. The case of Mr. Eustis is complicated by the new pretensions put forward by Pinchback, whose action is understood to have been in spirea irom Washington, ine cre dentials on which Pinchback's case was tried in the Senate were de rived from his first election. While his case was still pending in the Senate the Kellogg .Legislature at a subsequent session went through the form of again electing him. and a second set of credentials were issued in his favor. He now bases his claim to a reopening of his case on this second set of credentials, and he will be here by Tuesday to advocate his claim in person. Republicans of the Radical stripe have gained in hope very much, and to-day they are not backward in expressing the belief that all the Re publican claimants to the contested Senatorial seats will be admitted, j It really seems a if two at least of the Senators whose votes have been regis tered as doubtful are now very much inclined to cast them for the Repub lican claimants. - ELLOGG'S CHANCES Mr. Kellogg says that he does hot intend to follow the example of some others and hang around the Senate chamber, but he consider his chances now at least even. Some of his friends said to-night that they believed he would receive the vote of every Re publican Senator with the possible exception of Jndgo Christiancy. 'In regard to the collectorship of the port of New Orleans, Mr. Packard will make no personal application for it, but under certain circumstances he will accept the position if tendered to him by the President. Wnen it was first determined by his friends to present his name for the position it was not thought that Kellogg stood any chance of admis sion. Some of the Louisiana Repub licans now aver that if Kellogg is ad mitted it will offer the opportunity for Packard to renew the contest for the possession of the State govern ment of .Louisiana. It is stated that the leading members of the Demo cratic party in New Orleans, who are dissatisfied with the course of Gov. Nicholls, havs intimated that' they would sympathize with such a move ment. Mr: Packard himseit has not given anycurrency to this idea, and i . 1 Ui . wcatever nis views are-on iue aunjeub he is not communicating them to others. It is absolutely impossible for any such movement to succeed. JEALOUSIES IN THE CONSERVATIVE . , '. ,- BANKS. In resard to the election of J ndee Spofford it is charged openly here by Louisiana : UepuWicana. that prooi will 1h forthcoming" ax. the Drooer time to show that eves if the Legis lature which elected, hinr were com petent to exercise that function, there were other irregularitie;attendiag the election sufficient to vitiate' iu There is no question that the jealous ies and dissensions which exist among the Louisiana conservatives are such that influences are at work not favor able to either Eustis or Spofford ' in spired from that quarter. The same condition of affairs exists so far. as South Carolina is concerned. Friends of Geo. M. C. Butler assert that some of the leading State officials of South Carolina do not want bins, admitted to the Senate, and are shaping their course so as to throw obstacles in the way. Wuhlailea News Special to Richmond -Dispatch. ; Washington; Oct. 22. ; ? A number of explosive resolutions are ready to be exploded in the House at the first opportunity.
