3.-The citizens early in the day ef-
fected an organization which has SUBJ

The disorderly element should not
now be called strikers, because the
real strikers are rendering effective
aid to the municipal authorities in
maintaining order. They deprecate
and denounce the outrages Of the mob.
and used their best endeavors in dis

The liborers in every branch Of Industry appear

OF whom made this their city OF refuge after the
Partisan troubles.
Last evening reporter of the DEMOCRAT Wis.
tied Chief B,ylan at the Central Station. In the
course OF long conversation the Chief stated
that he did not apprehend any trouble here, but
he had, nevertheless, taken every precau ton to
put IL down in its incipiency. His men, he said,
were fully prepared for any emergency, and II
trouble occurred there would be no firing over
rioters heads, but ball cartridges would be
used. He said that there was nothing to fear

ANOTHER DECISION ON STATE bonds

State ex rel. ]. Mathers, Jr., and o. J. Forstall
vs.. The Board Of Liquidation.-Appeal from the
Fifth District Court OF the parish Of Orleans
Mr.. Chief Justice Manning delivered the opinion
Of the court in the words and figures following,
| to wit
| The relator presented to the Board of Iiauida.
! ton thirty-seven bonds OF this State for $1,000
each, with coupons and demanded their ex.
change for consolidated bonds OF the State, under
the authority Of decree Of this court rendered in
the case OF the Estate ex rel. the Attorney
General vs. Chas. Clinton, Auditor, ct alum,
Frank MOrey intervenor."
| Thee bonds were issued under the act Of De-
cember %, 1865, and are of the same series or
issues as those the validity OF which was ques-
toned in that suit.
The respondent denied the validity and legality,
and further averred that the decree rendered 10
the above recited cause was not the warrant or
authority which the board was required to have
under the provisions Of the act OF May II, 1875,
in order to fund bonds placed, as these We're.
upon the list OF questioned and doubtful
| bonds in and by that act.
The respondents also allege that the discretion
vested in the board cannot be taken from it ex-
| cept by final decree of the Supreme Court rem
| dered upon the identical bonds presented for
| funding.
We have elaborated cur viexs upon the duty OF
| the board in relation to the other bonds issued
under acts in the opinion Just read in the case OF
!
respondent. The principles therein enunciated
govern the case before u.s.
1t may not be amiss 70 renew here the observa-
ton that the proceeding By mandamus is not per-
INVISIBLE against public officer who has a dis-
erection in the discharge OF his duty, and that the
Board OF Liquidation has very large discretion
in accepting or rejecting bonds of the State for
the purpose of funding them, under tho acts of
| 1874 and 1875.
!! Therefore, it is ordered, adindged and aecreea
that the judgment OF the lower court be sffrmaJ
which refused to make peremptory the nandamus
Of relator upon the authority of the decree of
this court in the estate ex rel Attorney General
VS., Clinton ct al, and that the REALTORS pay the
| costs Of both courts.
1t is further decreed that the bonds set forth
in the list attached to REALTORS petition are now
declared to be legal and valid obligations Of the
State of Louisiana and they were issued in strict
conformity to law, and not in violation Of the
constitution of the United States or of this STATE
and for valid consideration
