On the twelfth day of September, 1892, an alternative writ of mandamus was issued, by Judge Daniel Dillon, one of the judges of the circuit *640court of St. Louis, to Hon. Edward A. Noonan, the mayor of the city of St. Louis, upon the petition of Henry Collett and Gerardo Barricella, requiring said Noonan to revoke, cancel and annul certain written permits issued by him to Lorenzo Palmisano et al., purporting to allow them to occupy places in the public streets of St. Louis, with their fruit wagons, within the district and within the hours prohibited by ordinance number 14084 and to stop and offer for sale and to make sales of their fruits, wares and merchandise therein, within said prohibited hours. Thereafter, on October 4, 1892, the respondent, Noonan, filed his return, in the nature of a demurrer, which was heard on November 15, 1892, and his return adjudged insufficient and a peremptory writ of mandamus was awarded on November 22, 1892, the respondent having declined to plead further.
On the twenty-ninth of November, 1892, the mayor filed his affidavit for appeal to this court and it was allowed, but no supersedeas bond was given and no stay granted. Afterwards, on January 7, 1893, a transcript of the proceedings was filed in this court and a bond for appeal tendered on January 12, 1893, which was approved and directed to.be filed with the clerk of the circuit court, but it appears that, by an oversight, the bond was lodged with the clerk of this court. Afterwards, the relators filed affidavits in this court showing that in obedience to the peremptory writ the mayor, on December 29, 1892, canceled the said permits issued by him to said parties.
On April 10, 1894, the relators moved this court to dismiss the appeal herein because this court had no jurisdiction over said appeal under the constitution of this state. Counsel have also filed briefs covering various other questions in the cause.
*641Upon consideration, we are of the opinion that the motion to dismiss the appeal must be sustained. This court has no jurisdiction of this appeal. It does not fall within any of the classes in which an appeal is granted to this court,- either as to the amount of the controversy, the character of the litigation or the parties litigant. Constitution, art. 6, sec. 12; amendment of 1884, sec. 5. It follows, also, that the order of supersedeas allowed in this court was improvidently granted, and said order and the order approving said appeal bond on January 12,1893, must be and they are hereby set aside, and the appeal is ordered certified to the St, Louis court of appeals.
All of this division concur.
