pursuant to his determination, the sheriff refused
to receive him In the Jail. A petition was there.
UPON flled by rTiar Justices Levy, Magrath and

aud asking q rule against the sheriff to show
cause why he refused. Hts Honor Judge Graham
signed the order requiring the sheriff to show
cause at O'Clock.
At that hour the sheriff put in hls answer, In
which he said that on account OF the failure OF
the county tn meet It's dues 10 him for the past
eight MOI tbs, he was unable any longer to pro-
vide the necessary subsistence for the prisoners
and he had refused to receive them to avoid the
inevitable necessity OF starving item. That the
