Case followed.
Upon the petition of John Murphy, the district court for Hennepin county issued its writ of habeas corpus requiring Frank McDonald, superintendent of the Minneapolis workhouse, to show cause why he retained Alice Kent in custody. The return to the writ showed that the detention was by virtue of a commit ment, a copy of which was attached to the return. The matter was heard by Jelley, J., who denied the petition and discharged the writ and ordered that the-prisoner be admitted to bail pending appeal to this court. Prom the order discharging the writ, petitioner appealed.
Affirmed, and the prisoner remanded to-the custody of the respondent.
Mead & Brymgelson, for appellants.
Daniel Fish, City Attorney, and W. G. Compton, Assistant City Attorney, for respondent.
Reported in 141 N. W. 112.

The order discharging the writ of habeas corpus is affirmed, and the relator is remanded to the custody of the respondent.
