other justice for the writ, but 1t Is
thought their next application will be
made to the full bench OF the Supreme

supported by a brief. for leave to file d
petition for a writ Of error.
Such a motion. II made, will probably
be submitted Monday, and the court
would hardly pass upon the motion be-

to delay the execution of Frank, even If
