Opinion

ERROR TO THE CIRCUIT COURT OF THE UNITED STATES FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF MISSOURI.

No. 257.

Argued March 29, 30, 1892. Decided April 11, 1892.

The judgment below is affirmed upon the authority of United States v. County of Macon, 99 U.S. 582.

Mr. George A. Sanders for plaintiff in error. Mr. T.K. Skinker and Mr. Joseph Shippen filed briefs for same.

Mr. Ben Eli Guthrie for defendant in error.


THIS was a petition for a writ of mandamus to compel the levy of a tax to satisfy a judgment recovered against Macon County upon bonds issued by the county. The bonds were of the same issue which was before this court in United States v. County of Macon, 99 U.S. 582, and the remedy sought for was the same remedy which was prayed for in that suit. The court below dismissed the writ upon the authority of that case.


The judgment is affirmed upon the authority of United States v. County of Macon, 99 U.S. 582.
