Before HOOK and CAR-LAND, Circuit Judges, and AMIDON, District Judge

Opinion:
HOOK, Circuit Judge.
Crites was convicted of the offense of introducing and carrying intoxicating liquor from without the state of Oklahoma into that part of the state which was formerly Indian Territory, contrary to Act March 1, 1895, c. 145, § 8, 28 Stat. 697. We do not think the evidence sufficient to Justify the conviction. The sentence is reversed, and the cause is remanded for a new trial.
