from the Shreveport Times, July %: {
Yesterday sawthe close Of the examina.
tion before Jude Lponey Of Chef 81 Police
Devise, charged wfh the killing of Eds
Pagan. About $3.50 A. NJ. court conYened,
fand the argument for the State was opened
BY District Attorney Wise. whose handling
T. Bell, Esq. followed, for the defense.
His argumeet was characterized by the logic
and depth Of legal learning for which be is
noted. J. c. MoncdEe, ESQ, made bril-.
liant effort on the s. 6rt fthe defnuse, 81
about an hours length Aleck Boarman,
Esq, clesed for the State making striotly
Legal and lawyer like summing up of thu
case.
Judge L6oney's decision was BRET, clear.
and impartial. He stated that he could
not render q judgment of acquittal, bnt
neither could he, refuse the accused bail,
since such action on his part, as judge,
might havesA tendency. to influence the
grand jury, and 9pssibly the petty jury, be-
fore both of which the case would haye to
come. He. theeefore fixed the j. bond Of
Dewing at $4,000, and as both the State and
defense agreed to submit the cases of Nash
and Billingslea, the two policemen against
whom the same charge obtained, to the
present decision Of the court, without fur
Their examination, she bond in each of these
cases was fixed at $1,000. Sheerod was dis
charged, as there was no evidence showing
that he had taken part in theashoOting.
Chief ,Dewing Immediately gavB bond in
the amdunt named, but was rearrested on
charge of assault am battery, upon affida-
VT Of CAPTAIN JameyE. Phelps. The bond
for this last charge was Fl ed at $500, which
Vas also given.
Policeman Bulingslea alsQbnade his bond
and was released. Nash, Up to dark fsst
night, had been unable to find bUhdsmen,
and was still in durance.' Rigdon also fur
nished bail yesterday in the eum Of 5000
and was released.
Thus has ended, for The present, the ex-
animation into an affair OF blood and death
that has been painful apd deplorable, not
alone in that human lie has been saori-
feed, but also in ttet the community has.
been wrought asunder by conending and
violent differences of opinion az tQfhe JUS
tifablenee or not of the otficeW Of The NV,
against whom the charge Of murder is
made. Such a. state of excited feeling in
tie individual minds of the citizens Of
community can not but bd productive
of bad results, showing q tendency
o en- the part q some to t; oo the
doors, as we'll as giving tnese evil dosrs
somewhat of license to commit cri0es,
trusting to the lawlessness of the commu-
nifty for their protection. We trust, how
ever, that after thu very fair and impar6h1
action Of Judge Looney in Ills case, that
al. private utterances on the part of our
citizens will be suppressed, and that all ex-
citeMent growing out Of the case will sub
side. Let as quietly await the verdict that.
the jury will give, when in DE Course Of
law the case shall be tried, and let ussbe
unwilling TO degrade. theshsjesty of the
law Of the land by actions and utterances
unbecoming law abiding citizens.

o There is remarkably quiet activity amdGk
certain OF our. enterpriGng residents clean
ing out .bayous and preparing to carry a
portion of our sl1ear crop by water to the.
city. Prudence seems to be gaining head
way among the planters and merchants.
