II is stated upon reliable authori'
", that Attorney General Stanbory
has given the counsel for the State
oc Mississippi to understand that he
will meet the motion for writ OF
injunction against the President for

and the Supplemental bill. Attor-
ncy Gen. Stanborry suggested that
as it was n case involving the origi-
nal jurisdiction of the Court, the
motion in the first place should be
for leave to file the bill.
Judge Sharkey acquiesccd, and
said that the counsel for the State of
Mississippi would now make a mo,
ton for leave to file the bill, and
were now ready to argue it.
The Attorney General said he
contendcd against the bill in so far
as it proposes to make the President
II party defendent as, in effect, an
onset against the United States.-
lie would, therefore, object to leave
being given by the Court to file the
bill and he further stated that he
was als) ready now TO go into argu-
mcnt Of that motion.

ton, stated that the motion for leave
to file the bill might be made and
