Citations from no end of authorities were
made by counsel for and against the city,
and strong argument offered bearing upon
the liability of the city. pro and con.
The entire argument as a whole has for
a basis the question of the validity of the
warrants in issue. and how far the city
can be held responsible fer the acts of ex-
Treasurer George W. Boggs In hypothe-
eating these warrants. Every iuaglna BILE
