The People of the State of New York ex rel. Matthew Nolan, Appellant, v. William E. Snyder, as Acting Warden of Clinton Prison, Dannemora, N. Y., Respondent.
   Relator appeals from an order of the County Court dismissing a writ of habeas corpus and remanding him to the custody of the warden of Clinton Prison.

Order unanimously affirmed. Present — Hill, P. J., Crapser, Heffernan, Sehenck and Foster, JJ.
