to publish any statement as to the con-
dltion Of affairs at the Normal until
there Is n full meeting OF the board. \

These have been telegraphed to come

this was discrimination, in violation OF
the Railway Commission act OF 1891.
In the lower court the indictment was
quashed, on the ground that the act of
1899, dreating the Corporation Commits
sion, repealed the act of 1891. Then
there was appeal. IIx-Justicc Avery
appeared against the Southern to-day
and argued that since the decision by
