resolutions requesting the immediate 0bdIcation Of

Them, because bodies of armed men had gathered in
various parts of the city, and he regarded this
a menace. lie further stated, however, that if the
people assembled peaceably, without menace, he
would entertain any petition from them which was
addressed TO HIN. After some further parley with
,he (;uyernor's officials the committee Withdrew and
reported the result to the meeting. The people
than advised to go home and get their arms and re-
turn to assist the "WhIte Leaguers," who were

In the afternoon a proclamation appeared recting
the wrongs under which the people Of Louisiana
have so long suffered, asd signed by D. B. Penn,
Iieutena n. Governor, who was chosen the Nc
EnerV ticket. Il called out the militia between Is
and 45 "for the purpose of driving the usuPeTs from
power" and an annexed order appointed General

militia. Another proclamation was also issued to
quiet the apPrehensons of the cOlored people.
Armed men assembled IN Canal street in the after.

street, about the same time appeared on the ground,
Longsreet ordering the citizens to disperse. There
was sharp firing. aud the police at place broke.
and the citizens captured one gun from them. The
citizens captured the City Hall and police bsrricades.
Al dusk the citizens held all the portion of the city
above Canal street, the police being massed in aud
around Jackson Square. A number of sharp skir-
mlshes have occurred, causing loss of eight cit
1ens and thirty police killed and many wounded.
General Badger, of the police, wounded. There
are reports that Governor Kellogg has called the
President for aid. On Monday night the city was
quiet. and the impression prevailed that further
attempts would be made by the police TO disperse

THE CITY RECORD CONTRACT.

william z. Rhodes, one OF the eight bidders for
the contract to print the Cttv Record, awarded
last year. was dissatisfied with the rejection OF his
bid, which was the lowest, while Martin b. Brown.
whose bid was the second highest obtained the
contract Mr.. Rhodes took active steps to break
che contract. The matter came before Judge
Pratt In Supreme Court, Chambers, last July on an
order granted TO PLAINTIFFS counsel, Mr. Richard
OGorman, commanding Mayor Havemeyer, Com
missioner Van Mort and Mr.. Il. D.. Smith,
constituting the Board or the Cttp Record; Comp
troller Green and the said Martin b. Brown to
show cause why they should not be enjoined
from carrying out the contract 1t then ap-
peared by the answer submitted that Browns
was the only tender which complied with the
requirements OF the statute. A rejOinder was
made on behalf OF Rhodes that his tender substan-
TALLY complied with the statute and literally with
the advertisement for bids and was the same as In
the previous year. and that no lntimatiOn had
been conveyed to him that anything else was re-
Quired. The case was then left with the Court.
Judge Pratt, in giving decision yesterday, said =
nave waited since July ior the defendants 70 sub
init afldavits and briefs and have invited them
by letter to do Their failure TO submit am
davtts leaves me no alternative but to decide the
case upon the PLAINTIFFS papers. The motion Is so
far granted as to enjOin said Martin b. Brown from
receiving any money from the other defendants.
