 May Suspend Officers. opinion of Judge sAyrs in Denying Application for Mandanus by Colonel of Third Infantry
 is Upheld.

The Supreme Court of Alabama yester- day in lengthy opinion by Mir Justice Haralsor, sustained Judge A. D. ..Sayre Of the Montgomefy City Court in denying a writ of mandamus to compel Governor Jelks to restore Colonel E. L. ffigdon of Birmingham to command of the Sd In fantry Alabama National Guard.
 Colonel Higdon. 1t will be remembered, was temporarily relieved of his command by Governor Jelks as d result of fric- ton among the officers growing out of the Higdon-Kyle controversy. which att tracted widespread attention.
 A petition was filed with Judge Sayre for a writ, of mandamus to compel the Governor to restore Colonel Higdon to his command The petition was denied by Judge Sayre. who held that a writ Of mandarnus could not be served on Governor Je1ks as Commander -in-C Chief of State troops as he had acted in a dis cretionary matter and could not be reached by the court.

N. LOBMAN ACITY FATHER Elected to Succeed ANer-

 ing Opened. Deal With E. \. Stewart of Selma for Magazine Property is Con
 sumnated--wila Build . E. Manufactory.

At a special meeting of the Montgom- cry City Council at f. o'clock yesterday, Nathan Lobman. prominent wholesale dry goods merchant of Montgomery, was unanimously elected an Alderman from Ward to succeed Alderman J. c. Cheney, who resigned because of his removal to Pensacola. Fla.
 The special meeting of the Council was called to open bids for paving sidewalks and for the purchase of baby bonds.
 Those present at the meeting were President Fleming, Aldermen Anderson, Farley, Gunter, Hartley, May, Mcintyre. Roeder, Rushton and Toole,
 When President Fleming had announced the purpose of the meeting the clerk opened bids for paving the sidewalks on Adams and Alabama Streets Bids were resolved from J. Sl Connif & Co.,, H. C. Hodgson and E. c. Hannon. The bids were referred to the Committee on Streets.
 The Council then opened bids for the purchase of baby bonds amounting to s25.o00 for sidewalk paving. The bids were referred to the Committee on Finance
 At this juncture the resignation of AL derman J. c. Cheney was read and 1t was accepted.
 Alderman Rusf1ton nominated MT. Lob man, Alderman-elect from Ward g. for the vacancy. In doing SO. Alderman Rushton explained that Capt A. G. Forbes, the other AIderman-efect from Ward 3. did not care for the place. Mir. Lobman received every vote of the Council and was declared to be the unani- nous choice of the Aldermen.
 The new Alderman is one of Montgom- ery's progressive and substantial citf- zens. At the city primary election last Spring he had the distinction of being nominated and elected to represent the ward beginning next October, without op- position and without soliciting the place. After Mir. Lobman had been declared elected, Alderman Gunter offered a reso- lution authorizing the purchase of the Jost property on the triangular block bounded by Montgomery. State and Gold thwaite Streets, and to accept the offer of 5000 from the Montgomery Traction Company to be released from it's obliga- ton to widen Montgomery Street at that point. Action on the resolution was de- ferred until the next meeting.
 Alderman May offered a resolution. which was adopted, instructing the Com- mfttee on Markets to make arrauremeuty for renting stores in the City Building another year and to report to the Coun- ell. An ordinance was introduced by Alder man Rushton granting a franchise to Enos R. Stewart of Selma to Jay raiIro,si
