be quashed on the ground that the
indictment had not been properly
transferred from the district 10 the

been argued before him, the court
announced at first that he would
render a decision on the motion at
2 D. m. Thursday but later on IN

dered the case sent back TO the dis
trict court for proper legal transfer

regular district court term meets
here again. The court held that no
order had been entered in the min
utes of the March term Of the dis
trict court transferring the indict-
ment TO the county court for trial
and that therefore he had no 1uris-
diction until 1t Is legally done He
made IL plain that his order hid not
mean that the case was quashed.

ty and assistant county attorneys
