supreme Court.

In the Supreme Court OF the United
States, on the twenty eighth of January, the
following case was decided:
No. 2li. Morgan, executor, Gay-Error
to the Circuit Court for the District of
Louisiana. This suit was brought against
Morgan, as executor of Morgan, on three
bills of exchange. The answer denied liza.
bility, and pleaded the prescription of five
wears. The cause coming on to be heard,
defendants counsel was not present, and
the cause was submitted to the court with
out jury, and the plea was overruled and
Judgment given for the plaintiff. The error
here assigned is that there is no description
OF the plaintiff other than that he is a citi-
zen of Louisville. Kentucky, and that is
claimed to be insufficient to give jurisdic.
ton As the bills sued on were inland bills,
and it was not alleged that the payee and
first indorser, through whom plaintiff de
rived title, is citizen of State other than
Louisiana, jurisdiction is not shown. 1t is
also urged that as the cause was submitted
to the court in the absence of defendants
counsel, without an agreement in writing to
waive a jury, i: was not competent for the
court to render q judgment except upon a
verdict. J. A. Campbell for plaintiff in
error; defendant not appearing.
