NO DECISION TODAY.
MayOralty Case is Still
Unsettled.
THE COURT NOT READY.
Rescript Nav Be Handed Down in a
Few Days.

There were quitea number of people in
terested in the Supreme Court proceedings
in the Mayoralty case OF this city present
in the Supreme Court this morning, ex-
pecting to hear the decision in regard to
the pleadings on the demurrer filed oy he
counsel for Mayor Carroll in the quo
war;. nto case.
Mayor Carroll was present in person
and also his counsel. The Messrs. Van
Slyck were also present as counsel for the
petition. All were doomed to disappoint-
ment, however, as, contrary to the gem
cral expectation, no decision was handed
down.
No reason was assigned, Of course, as
the pleasure OF the Court is the only rule
in those cases.
1t is generally understood, however, that
the cause OF the delay is the fact that JUS
Douglas who is on case, was engaged all
week In holding court IN East Greenwich
and consequently there was not sufficient
time TO examine the authorities cited in
the briefs submitted.
1t is possible however that decision
may be given within week
