The Loud Case in lberviile- MIR. Nuhu.
Gle. Rejected on the BoEd.


II was announced in the REPUBLICAN
some days since that Hon. Antoine Dubu.
c.ec, State Treasurer. and one OF the largest
landholders in the parish of Iberville. had
offered himself as bondsman for Mr.. Loud.
who is now imprisoned in the Jail at Plaque.
mine. The blank bonds wers duly pre-.
pared by the deputy sheriff. signed By Mr..
Loud as principal. and forwarded to this
city to be signed by Mr.. Dubuclet. They
We're promptly signed by that gentleman
as surety. and the act attested by Mr.. Jus.
tice Evans.
The papers thus prepared were taken to
Plauuemins by Mr.. 0. a. Rice on Tuesday
and placed in the hands of the sheriff. Tha:
gentleman submitted the papers to the act
ing district attorney, who instructed the
sheriff not to accept the bopd. stating tina;
if he did the State would hold him person.
ally responsible, alleg ing that certain
blanks in the bonds had not been filled out
when they were signed by Mr. Dubuciet.
The sheriff's attention was called by Mr..
Loud's attorney to page 299 Of the Thir.
teenth annual, where decision of the Su.
preme Court sets at rest the plea that any
informality existed in the bond on the
ground alleged. Notwithstanding this and
the fact that tke paper had been prepared
in the sheriff ) Office. and also that Mr..
Dubuclet was taxpayer il the parish
upon property many times the amount of
the bond, it was finally rejected and Mr..
Loud still remains in Jail.
Thus again a frivolous technicality keeps
Mr.. Loud in Jail. The evidence of the vii.
lsinous conspiracy agains: this officer is
creating considerable agitation in official
circles. and we are confident prompt action
will be taken to break up the ring at once.
Public sympathy seems to be entirely with
the victim OF this oppression. Ii is clear
that he is more sinned against than SHINING.
This last bold and unprecedented action of
the ring-as illegal as it is cruei-will. we
are assured, cause prompt action 10 be
taken by the executive.
