Evading to decide the Injunction
on its merits, we, Notwithstanding
must take notice of the fact that the
Parish seat of Bossier Parish is
definitely settled, and that the ne.
cessity of delaying the construction
of Jail at Benton on the grounds
alleged by plaintiff no longer exists.
The issue is limited to the right to
bond. The sole purpose of the in
junction was to prevent the expen-
diture of S7.580.OO of parish funds
to build Jail at a place not def
initely settled as a parish seat.
That question being decided, the
injunction can be dissolved on bond.
The allegations of the plaintiff and
all the issues make it evident that
any apprehended injury is compen-
sible in money.
Plaintiffs aver that they have a
common interest exceeding $4,000
90. A bond will protect them from
all injnry. The conditions of the
bond and the sureties will amply
protect plaintiffs.
1t is ordered, adjudged and de-
creed, that defendants motion to
dissolve the injunction in this case be
granted, and that the Judge of the
District Court of the End Judicial
District, in and for the Parish of
Bossier, accept bond from the Po-
lice Jury to secure plaintiffs from in
jury; that this case be remanded at
plaintiffs cost, to be further proceed
ed with according to law.
SYLLABUs.-A writ of injunction
having issued, the defendant fled a
motion to dissolve it on bond.
It being evident that the appre-
hended injury is compensate in
money and not irreparable, the appli-
Cation is granted, and the Court a
qua directed to accept bond aud Sc
curity dissolving the injunction.
Case remanded.

SELLING TO REALIZE,
Various Causes Lead to Decline i'm Stocks
A Rally Follows.

Rally Follows.
NEw York. April H.-The opening Of the
stock market this morning was again marked
by considerable activity. but the business was
rather better distributed than yesterday The
opening prices were made at only slight
changes from those of last evening, and while
irregular indicated firm tone. which was con-
tinued during the greater portion of
the hour, even though some feverish-
ness marked the trading throughout. The
pressure of sales to realize profits in the early
dealings however, drove the list down frac-
tionally, and Northern Pacific preferred and
Rock Island fell away u per cent each. Chicago
gas e and others smaller fractions, the only
strong point being Cleveland. Columbus, Gin
cinnati and st. Louis, which steadily adj
yanced.
The decline was soon checked and the losses
rapidly recovered. Union Pacific was espe-
cially conspicuous in the rise, though the i'm
provement over the opening figures was for
small fractions only. except in Wheeling and
Lake Erie and one of the other specialties
Comparative dizziness marked the late trading,
but the firm tone was maintained, and at IL
O'Clock the market was quiet, but firm to
strong, at the highest prices Of the hour
Money is easy at 3a311 per cent Another
gold shipment had q depressing effect upon
the stock market after IL o'clock. and while a
few stocks made slight further progress in the
upward direction after that time. the great ma
jority fell away slowly from the best prices
reached in the first hour.

CINCINNATI, ONO, April 21.-No better
weather could be desired than is fayoring the

leaders of the republican party were to be seen

central figures
The places assigned to the delegates from the
respective states were designated by neat BAN
ners bearing the name of the states The hour
hxed for the convention was II o'clock noon,
out IL was long past that time when the dele
gates began to assemble.
A delegate, to relieve the monotony, started
Marching Through Georgia" and the refrain
present. Then followed ''Rally Around the
Flag, John Browns Body and other familiar
war songs.
Finally Mayor Mosely stepped upon the plat
form and welcomed the delegates on behalf of
the city.
Ex-Gov. Foraker did the same in the name of
the state. President Squire of the Ohio clubs
spoke and President fhurston responded in
behalf of the National League.

an advertisement Offering five per cent month

diamonds
Mr. Bergman was one of the persons who
answered the advertisement and when be went
to the house a woman, supposed to be the
prisoners wife, took the earrings from her
ears. They were taken TO a jewelry store
where they We're valued at a.. 900.
Mr. bergman returned TO the house and gave
up S650. In the meanwhile the woman. il is
Charged, got possession of the diamonds and
while the money was being counted out she
slipped pair of inferior gems in the place of
the genuine ones.
After MIR. bergman left the house he sus-
pected something wrong. and on going
again to the jewelry store he learned that the
pair of diamonds that he then had we're worth
less than 500. 1t is said that another person
was swlndled IN tine same manner to the extent
OF SSOO. The prisoner was identified here and
he returned to Baltimore without putting the
officers to the trouble of procuring the neces-
sary legal papers. When arrested the prisoner
had revolver IN his pocket.

Will support Harrison - Navy Yard Civil
Service Reform Commended.
There is absolutely nothing new in the
political field, said Senator Vim. E. Chandler
to STAR reporter this afternoon. NO there
isn't even any gossip 10 presidential
possibilities or imposSibilities. Personally am
an administration man and expect 20 give
PRESIDENT Harrison my hearty support There
Is strong sentiment in the east and in fact
all over the country favorable TO blaine. This
sentiment is growing, but, as I understand the
situation, Mr.. Blaine will not allow his name to
be used.
What do l think Of the application Of civil
service reform principles TO the Navy Yard?
why Its good thing. l do not understnnd that
secretary Tracy Is going to call upon the civil
service commission TO supply him with foremen
or mechanics, but what he proposes is COM
mendable. You know there is a law which
provides that no employe of q navy yard
snail be removed because of his political
convictions nor be appointed unless he
Is competent and skilled. On that statute Sec
rotary Tracy may build up a system which. If
II not too elaborate, may be productive of great
good.
Yes. was aware of the existence of that
law when was Secretary of the Navy and
was governed by 1t. l never removed man
because he was a democrat or appointed one
because he was a republican. 1t Is a good law
and should be enforced"
w no will succeed AFR. Edmunds as Senator
from Vermont
Il have understood" said the Senator. that
The governor will certainly appoint the secre-
lary al War; that is the general belief up our
way"
would like New England man to succeed
MI. Proctor IN the cabinet. Certainly, and We
nope to see one there, but that is a matter
which cannot now be discussed. Very
probably the President has not given
the Idea any consideration as vet.
For whom do We hope? 1 should like to see
the President select ex-tIoy. 4. {. Cheney OF

tlon; 1t cannot be presented to the President
