turn the msndicantS To the place whence
they came. The southern railway was re-
ported for violating this ordinance, and
was represented in the Police Court by
Captain West who asked for time TO con-
fer with the railway authorities In Dan
Vile and Washington which was granted.
He stated, however, that ne was certain
that his road would not furnish trans
pOrtatOn TO North Carolina.

better accommodations, and yesterday
morning, at the suggestion Of city At

quested Major Poe 10 take charge OF the

in demurrer:
1.-The bill has rot proper parties The
coupon contract is the contract Of the
State of Virginia but no process has IS
sued, or was asked against her. This is
a fatal defect
THE cOmpainant's demand. conceded

4-The contract evidenced by the cou-
pOns Is not the contract and does not
bind the State of Virginia.
5.-The coupons tax receivable quality
was bestowed by a repealable statute, and
this law has been repealed.
6.-Ihc coupon contract was made by
statute OF Virginia, and this statute has
twice been construed b. the Court Of
Appeals.
Edward Parsons is not a taxpayer
of Virginia, and the contract rights Of
the coupon can only be enforced by
taxpayers Of Virginia
S.-Tne contract alleged to have been
made with the taxpayers OF the Giles
Of Petersburg, Norfolk and Richmond is
