This was the beginning of an extra ordinary statement made at the Raleigh hotel last night by Louis A. Oourdaln, of New Orleans. "I have <5,000,000,” he continued, "and today I shall ask Postmaster Gen eral Cortelyou to require every post master In the country to set up In his office a notice declaring that I am ready to pay back every cent of money Invested In my enterprises, together with 8 per cent Interest.

He Starves Himself. "I told the warden In my last appeal that I would neither eat, sleep nor drink until I had filed this mandamus proceeding before this honorable court and had It granted or refused.
