This appeal is taken from the judgment awarding the peremptory writ of mandamus. It does not appear, from the record, that any new testimony was heard after the cause was remanded, and it is not claimed by appellant\u2019s counsel that any such evidence was introduced.\nThis judgment was but in conformity with the opinion of this court in the ease, and will not be reviewed. The judgment will be affirmed.\nJudgment affirmed.\nMr. Justice Scott took no part in this decision.",
