The suit of Paul Trevig1e against the Board OF
School Directors has excited much attention and
it's termination is looked forward to with consid.
ersble eagerness. As will doubtless be remem.
bered, the petition asks for an injunction re.
straining the board from making any distinction
between the races in the assignment of schools
In response to this application Messrs. Jenas and
Farrar filed q rule before Judge Rightor asking
that the injunction be set aside and dissolved on
the grounds that no cause Of action was set forth
as the act complained Of had been completed be-
fore the suit was filed and also that the petition
discloses no injury, present or Immediate, to the
plaintiff.
The Sixth District Court room will doubtless
be crowded on October IL, the day when this rule
comes up, for tn re are many parents who take
. deep interest in our school affairs. 1t wac
thought some time since that the color question
had been ended so far as our schools are con-
cerned, but this Trevgne suit will serve to revive
it; only for the time being, however, for there
can be no question as to the ultimate result in
in favor of the boards action in the premises.

The coming session OF Congress and prospects

to be that all of the combinations now being
formed were against the interests and prospects
OF the present Collector, who has not, it SCENE,
any one at Washington to

Who ought to know that Mr.. Packard would not
decline the position IL it were rendered him, it
may BIO that he will be the coming man for the

He will leave Cor Washington during the pres

for the position by many of the Northern mem

the capital on Tuesday to look after his own CON-

merely ask the Senate Judiciary Committee, be-
fore whom his name will 60, to examine his
