   LATTIMORE, J.

Appellant presented a second application for habeas corpus to the district court of Jefferson county, and upon a hearing was remanded. Appellant was remanded upon a first application, and the action of the trial court was upheld by us. See Ex parte Fr.eeman, 237 S. W. 556. Upon the presentation of this second writ appellant introduced in evidence the same facts heard by the court at the former hearing, and the testimony of two physicians as to the conditibn of his health, and the testimony of another witness to the facts of the homicide. We have carefully examined the new testimony, and considered same in connection with that presented upon the first appeal, and regret our inability to conclude that we were wrong, or that the additional evidence requires at our hands a different conclusion from that reached.

Believing the case to be one in which bail should be refused, the judgment of the district court is affirmed.
