The 0ffcial relations Of military commanders and
United States marshals are to be defined as fol-

acting under the same authority az that which gov

trict being ordinarily restricted to the limits OF the
State his authority to call for the assistance OF troops

the laws OF the United States Is CO.

therefore, have q right TO call upon any military
commander within his district for such assistance
as the nature Of the case may require; but the mill
tary commander will, before indicated, exercise
sound discretion in deciding upon the necessity Tor
the use Of his troops.
In no case is it deemed proper to consider mere
riotous demonstration as case calling for the inter
position OF the military forces which should not De
