CASE REVERSED
SUPREME COURT RENDERS I'M. PORTANr DECISION IN PLUM
 BAYOU LEVEE CASE.
the Right to Issue Certificates of Indebtedness.

NIT. Justice McCulloch delivered the opinion of the court in the case Of Altheimer against the board of direc~ tors, of the Plum Bayou levee district, at Little Rock Monday, on appeal from Jefferson chancery court.
 This is q suit by a citizen of the Tlun Bayou levee district to restrain th,, board of directors from exceeding
 ts powers in contracting debts and issain& certificates of indebtedness in eAesss of the $3o0,00O bond issue au- tht.riHed by the statute. It is claimed hat the board has no power to con tract debts in excess of that amount, even in the construction and main t4narce of the lcvee. Fhis court holds that the limitation as to amount only applies to borrowing money and is- suing bonds, and that the board may exceed that amount in contracting debts in constructing and maintaining the levee The board may also issue certificates of indebtedness in form of notes of debts incurred in complet- ing the levee, they to stipulate there- in the days of payment, and that the same, may bear legal rate of interest The court holds, however, that the board cannot borrow money for any nurpose in excess of the authorized bond issue, nor can it. stdpulate for rate of interest in excess of per cent. To do so is to proceed beyond it's power. and 1t may be restrained ] by a taxpayer. The chancellor erred in sustaining the demurrer and the cause is reversed.

GO BACK UPON THEIR LEADER.
Refused te Support His Hard VI +is
 Eiiihustey.

Wilmington, D. C., May 2S.-Selhsn considerations on the part of a num- Ter of Democrats yesterday obstruct- the filibustering tactics of Representa-. tive John Sharp Williams, minority floor leader on the statehood bill, by delaying legislation in the house. Sev- epty Democrats signed a request for Mir. Williams to fihbuster until the statehood bill came from conference, and until today his Democratic allies stood by him in his obstr0cting tao tics.
 Early in the day, however, the mi nority leader, who had renewed hfs filibustering, found that threefourths of the Democrats who had requested him to keep back legislation until the Republicans brought the state hood bill out uf conference had de- serted him.
 It was when the house began con sideration of private pension bslls that Mir Williams trouble began. The excuse of the Democrats was that they were afraid their own pension bills would not be brought up if the filibus- tering tactics were pursued. When MT. Williams demanded tellers on the first bill read there were not enough |! Democratic hands raised to order the count.
 A few of the Democrats, however, who had signed the request for the filibuster remained steadfast to their leader notwithstanding they, too, had pension bills on the calendar
