McDONALD, Presiding Judge.

Appellant is under two indictments for the offense of rape. He ‍‌​‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‍sought to he discharged on hail. After hearing, the Honorable J. C. Gladney, District Judge, held that appellant was entitled to be admitted to ‍‌​‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‍bail in the sum of $15,000.00 in each case and remanded him to jail until such time as bail in this sum was furnished. This ‍‌​‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‍appeal is from Judge Gladney’s orders.

In the absence of a showing that an effort has been made to furnish bail in the amount fixed following ‍‌​‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‍the habeas corpus hearing, we must decline to entertain the complaint that the $15,000.00 bond in each case is excessive. Ex parte Shaw, 170 Tex.Cr.R. ‍‌​‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‍315, 340 S.W.2d 818; Ex parte Swaim, 168 Tex.Cr.R. 391, 328 S.W.2d 299.

The judgments are affirmed.
