commissioners, to be selected from the officers
of the army and of the Freedmen's Bureau, will
be appointed and given jurisdiction over SUB
districts, to be defined in the orders appointing
them with sufficient military force TO execute or
secure the execution of their orders. For the pur-
pose ofsuppressng insurrection, disorder, or vio-
lence the Military CommIssionersareg given COM
mand ofthe police of cities and the power ofcoun-
ties In addition to the troops that may be placed

report to these headquarters of each case of
which they take Jurisdiction, and the disposl-
held for trial, either in confinement or under

persons, civil officers and others, are requested
to obey and execute the lawful orders of the

authority of Military Commissioner shall be
tried by military commission and upon con-
viction shall be punished by fine and imprl-
sonment, according to the nature and degree of
the offense.
This order will not be construed to excuse
in any degree from the faithful discharge of
their duties. IL is intended TO aid the civil
authorities, and not to supersede them, except
in cases of necessity.
