PER CURIAM:

     Milford Junior Mason seeks to appeal the district court’s

order denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2254

(West 1994 & Supp. 1998).   We have reviewed the record and the dis-

trict court’s opinion and find no reversible error.    Accordingly,

we deny a certificate of appealability, deny Mason’s motion for

appointment of counsel, and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of

the district court. See Mason v. Corcoran, No. CA-98-187-L (D. Md.

Sept. 1, 1998).   We dispense with oral argument because the facts

and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials

before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

                                                          DISMISSED
