   PRENDERGAST, P. J.

This is an appeal from a hearing on habeas corpus before the district judge, who denied bail.

We have carefully read the statement of facts in this case. In our opinion, the district judge was justified in denying bail. As is usual, we do not discuss the evidence.

The judgment denying bail will be affirmed.

DAVIDSON, J.

(dissenting). I do not care to discuss the facts, and will not do so. I think the case clearly bailable. The Assistant Attorney General so thought, and agreed with relator’s counsel on bail in the sum of $15,000, which is of record among the papers.

I think he was and is right.
