name with the pending trial in st. Louis.
His object is to endeavor to have an opportu-
nifty given him to be heard before the Grand

PURCHASERS ARE YET RUSHING for the great
bargains to be had daily at the extensive dry
goods bankrupt sale OF Messrs Montgomery,
at 100 Canal street. Ladies' and gentlemen
who are familiar with ruling prices in the dry
goods market in this city are astonished at
the very low figures at which frst-class goods
are disposed of daily at this remarkable sale.
But the necessity OF clearing out the whole
stock is imperative, and it must be sold at any
sacrifice. Many of the finest and best goods
have been opened this week, and the sale
will be continued daily-morning, afternoon
and evening commencing at 10 o'clock.
Silks of the finest texture, cloths of superb
quality, carpets of unsurpassed excellence
and beauty, and variety OF the choicest
linens, cottons, hosiery, etc, are yet to be
sold. 1t takes some time to sell off such an
immense stock of goods, even as rapidly a:
they are going at this great SALE but the end
is more. nearly approaching every day, and
persons in want OF elegant goods, at the very
lowest prices, shonld bear this fact in mind.
Special accommodations are provided for
the ladies who attend this sale.

Mr.. Lafitte and the Funding Board.

NEW ORLEANS, La, DEG. Z, 1910.
Editor Bulletin:
Dear S1'-In your issue of this morning
you submit to the public statement OF
the operations of the Funding Board, (said to
be Officially which bears evidence OF fraud
upon its face.
In an issue of your valuable and reliable
journal, about three months since, you stated
as fact, based on the records of the Fund
ing Board, that at the first meeting OF that
body there were funded s145, 900 of the
Sl34, 900 bonds issued for the relief of P. j.
Kennedy. Whence came the surplus above
the authorized issue?
That "noble Roman" the Attorney Cen
eral, in the course of his letter dated oath
inst. to the Funding Board hits the nail on
the head when he writes "All this issue of
bonds was gobbled up by those holding what
they called floating Indebtedness against the
State, and made up of Legislative vouchers
and certificates, manufactured to order at the
shortest notice"
