was in the hands of Chester Cleve-

Mr. Kirkland addressed himself to-

right of a municipality to sue tor li-
bel. He took tht ground that since
the city possess-cs no trade, business

ner set forth in the dcclaration

He also took up the accusation that

tions that the city Was in financial
straits, had affected adversely the
market for its bonds. He maintained
that the safeguards of the law. gov-
crning bond issues, were such that
their value could not he; so char. ed.
He also dl ected the court‘s atten-

when the Tribune asserted that the
city was “broke," it published the
truth.
