the Supreme court of the nation, he may
grant writ of error, and thus refer
the matter to the full bench, It is the
privilege Of Judge Holmes to deny the
writ, and in that event no further ap-
peal could lie taken by fuckers repre-
sentatives.

for Washington, heuring the petition.
While the state Supreme court was
concerned with various questions of law
which arose during the trial of Tuck
