v.
SEWELL.

No. 181.

Argued April 29, 1910. Decided May 31, 1910. ERROR TO THE CIRCUIT COURT OF THE UNITED STATES FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF KENTUCKY.

Mr. Assistant Attorney General John Q. Thompson for plaintiff in error.

Mr. Edward S. Jouett for defendant in error.

Per Curiam.

The judgment is affirmed on the authority of United States v.

Affirmed.
